#339 - Brandon Kochkodin: The Loony Conspiracy Theory Threatening Wall Street [Naked Shorts]

Brandon Kochkodin is my guest on this show to cover GameStop and Brandon's claim that naked shorts don't exist in the market. Brandon, a seasoned writer for Forbes, takes us on a journey through the GameStop Saga and its connection to the Wall Street Bets community.

The basic theory that prevailed in the GameStop community following the squeeze of January 2021 is that naked short selling was used and is possibly still being used to suppress the price of the shares of this company. Brandon Kochkodin questions whether this is true, and whether the entire notion of naked short selling being used to manipulate markets on a wide scale is really occurring. I had some serious questions regarding GME, naked shorts, Wes Christian, and much more. Brandon had some interesting answers.
