And that’s basically the entire premise of The Big Short, which is one of the 3 films that forms the entire financial education for most of WSB’s subs.
People love the film which depicts a massive bubble growing in an asset class that can’t be shorted until Burry creates an instrument that enables shorting, which in turn is used to incentivise hedge funds to research the mortgage bubble and ultimately correct prices.
Yet now they hate it?
Obviously the real answer is that views haven’t changed, the people have. I’m sure 90% of wsb would support short selling 1 year ago, yet now they make up 10% of the current subscribers.
