Ironically some /r/wallstreetbets poster put out an ill-informed “due diligence” post 11 hours ago concerning CrowdStrike being not worth $83 billion and placing puts on the stock.

Everybody took the piss out of them for the post. Now they are quite likely to become very rich.

What's even better is the reaction here: https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/1e6vx6n/comment/l...

That user is the equivalent of using a screwdriver to look for gold and succeeding.

Not sure what material in their post is ill-informed. Looks like what happened today is exactly what that poster warned of in one of their bullet points.

Yea, everyone is dunking on OP here. But they essentially said that crowdstrike's customers were all vulnerable to something like this. And we saw a similar thing play out only a few years ago with SolarWinds. It's not surprising that this happened. Ofc with making money the timing is the crucial part which is hard to predict.

A convenient alibi?
