I don’t personally know Melvin/Plotkin, and I don’t know if this is true, but if it is, it would partly explain why @StevenACohen2 backed him earlier this week. Not to mention that Plotkin probably made a lot of money for Cohen over the years.

Unfortunately, looks like Steve Cohen is no longer on twitter @StevenACohen2

Agree 💯 Twitter was much better with him on here, oh well

Sorry that was confusing: I was simply expressing support with the sentiment it’s unfortunate he’s no longer on here

So I totally get the people who have pointed their knives at Steven Cohen over past grievances/rivalry. I even get the wider public scrutiny over Robinhood & Citadel. What I don’t get is how Steven Cohen is getting blamed for the Robinhood/Citadel nonsense. What am I missing?

I get that he invested in Melvin Capital / Plotkin earlier this week. That’s not a “bailout”, there’s no public funds at risk. Risk is risk. He’s buying low, hoping to sell high. He will lose if this goes lower. I for one like investors who back me when I’m down; wouldn’t you?

Look I’m sure there’s a lot I don’t know here. Also, I don’t believe in getting in the middle of other peoples’ fights. And surely billionaires can stand up for themselves. That all being said, I’m not seeing how @StevenACohen2 is connected to Robinhood/Citadel’s possible wrongs

As I said, the knives have been coming out. This is not my fight. The irony of the below observation/accusation is that one of Cohen/plotkin’s most vocal critics has done the same thing:
