Alaska Journal | Reddit s power to push stocks down is the next worry for traders

Post date:  A GameStop store in Los Angeles. (Dania Maxwell/Los Angeles Times/TNS) The dust may be settling on the Reddit madness, but the sudden rise of this disruptive cohort is causing some stock-options traders to ask: What if the retail army decide to do it all again, by forcing prices down instead of up? It’s a tail risk few institutional pros had considered until last week’s market drama when day traders pounded hedge funds by bidding up their most-shorted stocks. While they were igniting a now-famous 400 percent surge in GameStock, the cohort also loaded up on call options. That forced dealers to buy the underlying equities to hedge their own exposure, pouring fuel on the rally in stocks loved by the Reddit crowd and hated by Wall Street.
