Reddit day traders miss the point of hedge funds

Reddit day traders miss the point of hedge funds Hedge funds have attracted the ire of day traders reading Reddit, but they do a lot more than simply short stocks 4 February 2021 • 3:00pm Hedge funds have become public enemy number one in the eyes of “meme traders” who have sent shockwaves through stock markets in the last week.
