If you seen #silversqueeze trending, it's because r/WallStreetBets is back with "the biggest short squeeze ever".

This time they're targeting silver (via the Silver ETF, $SLV)

Here's the Reddit thesis of how it goes $25 to $1000: ImageImage

As a CFA, this is not investment advice
Looks like there’s a wrinkle in the silver ( $SLV) thesis.

Could be hedge fund counterops to get WSB off of $GME (and apparently HFs own a ton of SLV).

WSB saying $PSLV as alternative (which requires physical delivery). Image

1/ Marcus Bullock went to prison in the mid-90s at the age of 15.

Today, he's the CEO of Flikshop -- the "Instagram for the Incarcerated", an alternative to the outrageously expensive phone call system.

This is a truly inspirational founder story 👇👇
2/ In 1996, Bullock was living in Maryland. One night, he and a friend carried out an armed carjacking on a man sitting idle in a shopping mall parking lot.

It was the biggest mistake of this life.
3/ Several years prior to hit actions, there was the famed 1989 Central Park "Jogger Case", in which 5 minority youths were (falsely) accused of raping a jogger.

In the aftermath, nearly every state passed new laws that made it easier for courts to try youth as adults.

Amazon’s white label business

Its ~1% of sales and prob not worth the regulatory scrutiny.

Thread 👇👇

1/ The first white label product was the Amazon Basics battery in 2009. Within a few years, it had ⅓ of online battery sales, outselling Duracell and Energizer.
2/ Today, Amazon has 400+ brands under “Our Brands” (some are private label and some are 3rd party exclusives).

By one estimate, these brands collectively bring in ~$1-2B of 2019 revenue (drop in the bucket for total: $280B)

Here are some:
3/ Of these 400+ brands, the top 4 account for 72% of sales (all with "Amazon" in name):

-- Amazon Basics
-- Amazon Collection
-- Amazon Elements
-- Amazon Essentials
