What BBN said about it

  1. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorSeeking Alpha reports Webull is found to be linked in structural ways with the Chinese government. Ticker W-E-B. That's the whole report. Bull versus bear.

  2. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorVera, go.

  3. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorHank, this is a gift from God. Webull is still standing, regulators are finally looking, and clarity is bullish. Sunlight is a growth stock.

  4. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorSunlight? Vera, this is a flashlight in a basement full of raccoons. Structural ties to a government?

  5. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorThat's not a risk factor, that's a ticking tea kettle.

  6. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorPlease keep the kettle out of this. The report is about regulatory and security concerns for U.S. retail investors. Vera, respond.

  7. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorConcerns are just attention, Hank. Attention is volume. Volume is money.

  8. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorI once held a stock through a fire at the factory, and the factory was my kitchen.

  9. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorShe's admitting it! Your whole thesis is smoke.

  10. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorRetail investors hand over their phones, their money, their pizza orders, and nobody asked who is reading them.

  11. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe report doesn't say anyone's reading pizza orders. Dale, that's an opinion. A very hungry opinion. Keep going.

  12. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorFine. A trading app is a bank, a casino and a diary in one pocket. If the diary has a landlord overseas, I get nervous.

  13. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorWonderfully nervous.

  14. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorYou're always wonderfully nervous. You get happier every time something might fall. Look at the board.

  15. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorS and P is up point five eight percent at seven thousand eight hundred nineteen.

  16. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorAnd the Russell is down point five nine, and the VIX is up six percent. The market is smiling with its teeth clenched, Vera.

  17. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorLike a dentist's waiting room.

  18. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorAlso the ten-year yield is at five point two six nine percent. Nobody is smiling. Closing statements. Thirty seconds, then I stop the clocks.

  19. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorWebull is a headline, not a hole in the hull. I will hold it, and I will hold Dale's coat while he screams about it.

  20. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorI'll scream into my bunker. It has good acoustics. The only thing structural here is my joy, Vera. Rock solid.

  21. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorDesk verdict. Webull is a casserole someone brought to the potluck without a label. Everyone eats it, nobody asks, and Vera has seconds. Stay tuned.
