I find it very hard to believe hundreds of thousands of new accounts were created since Thursday. Everyone I know trading on RH is now actively in the process of transferring out, once they close up their short term trades like GME.

A lot of total noobs have showed up on /r/wallstreetbets, I'm not at all surprised that there have been so many new accounts opened.

People who've never been in the market before in their life seem to have jumped on $GME.

But Thursday is when they stopped trading GME. I can't believe that people would be stupid enough to go into RH to trade when the entire WSB is talking about how RH screwed them.
I think it's spread far beyond Reddit at this point.
It was the most downloaded app in the apple store and 2nd most in google play.
