Probably not insider trading lol. AMD was extensively shilled on /r/wallstreetbets and /r/amd_stock for 2 years now.
I'm not sure what else you expected from /r/amd_stock.
I didn't say I expected anything else. The point is it's not secret information that Jim Keller's Zen was going to change the landscape, people were shouting it from the rooftops. It was all just a matter of whether you believed them or not.
Right, but the point is that particular sub would be shouting it from the rooftops regardless of the underlying truth.

I think most would look at the situation and conclude that even broken clocks are right twice a day.

Alas bulldozer made me a skeptic. I did get in once it was demonstrated to be competitive but the stock price was much higher then.
idk about shilled on /r/wsb.. The sub just loves volatile stocks and everyone was making money on it so people talked about it. For a while it was $IQ and in the days leading towards earnings it was msft.
This is a public forum. For insider trading you need private info.
