A UK focussed sub (made in March 2018) with a business and marketing spin not otherwise available. /r/entrepreneur, /r/business and /r/investing are thriving communities yet concentrate largely on the USA. Rather than competing with those communities, we welcome any x-posts from them as a way of creating a UK based discussion around the same topics. Along with x-posts from similar subs to discuss in their British applications, you'll also find business news from the likes of the ONS and BBC.

About an hour ago, I finished my business and finance exam. In this course, the main takeaway was how much to value a firm, profitability of taking on a project, and learning about prices of the firm on the stock market (through EPS, book value, etc.). While taking the exam, a thought occurred to me.


Why exactly am I studying this?


To be exact, why exactly am I studying how to value a firm, and how the valuation of a firm affects it's stock market price and dividends, when the top 0.1% can simply manipulate the value of a firm's stock?

What would be the point of saying that a medical firm on the verge of releasing some cure for cancer and showing great financial accounts is doing extremely well, just for HFs to come and short the shit out of its stock into bankruptcy?

What would be the point of working for a company that is small but having great results but on the other hand, a HF putting artificial buying pressure on a much bigger company with not so great results?

For the rest of my life, I can guarantee the answer to every question I have will be somewhere along the lines of power and greed.

What I have learned in my bachelors degree so far is that without manipulation, things that are happening right now, should be happening differently. And it is sad to see that the majority of my classmates are unaware of this. Studying this degree only seems to actually prove useful in a non-existent society where the ultra wealthy do not take advantage of the systems made for society. This is why we need a market reset. To bring everyone as close to the same level as possible. And to finally make the world aware of how much fuckery has been going on since the start of time.

Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

So after 2+ years of doing DD and contributing to others' DD, I've learned a few things. The three that are the most staggering are

  1. You don't own your shares - everything in your brokers account is an IOU.

  2. Your buying pressure is likely being suppressed due to dark pools

  3. Hedge funds can and will short stocks down with their total capital to take money from retail investors and companies that are viable and can do good if left alone.

I had dinner with an old business prof a little while back. Now, you have to understand this person has always been a trusted source for business and finance information. Our conversation led us down a market structure conversation, and the 3 points above about blew his top as he doesn't short or play options anymore.

His response was this, "Do you know what would happen to the markets if every retail investor knew this?" To which i replied Yes.... it would be a fucking nightmare for the markets, people would look elsewhere to fund their retirement. He said they would stop investing in the markets, invest everything in real estate/land and that would be that.

Leaving a potential finance industry and banks in the lurch, this would also remove the ability for central banks to draw on your registered funds, removing spendable money from the treasuries.

Well damn that would be bad.

This prof also asked very clearly as anyone who has critical thinking skills would do... "How do i get my real shares like when i had my old certificates sent to me?"

I laughed and said, "Find the transfer agent, tell your broker you want your shares to be directly registered with the transfer agent. I also confirmed it must be in BOOK.

He's going to follow the bread crumbs and confirm for himself. "If this happens to be the case, he will begin adding this into curriculum".

Now, wouldn't that be a way to spread knowledge. He also asked that I come and speak to his classes.

Edit1 - small grammatical errors. Edit2 - Prof. is personal finance
