Some stuff happened. Not entirely sure I'm proud of any of it.

I don't agree with what Robinhood did though - not sure who else added similar restrictions. I didn't play although I did unload some stuff at a $1K profit that had previously been underwater and I was waiting for a rebound to unload - this was it. I almost turned around and shorted the same stock (opened an order on my trading platform) but then got busy with work stuff and the market closed. Would have paid me a few grand tax free if I executed....damn. Guess you can't win them all.
TD and Scotia did some weird stuff too. Shut down their sites. A lot of guys I know were pissed yesterday.
Shitty week for my good friend , wife at 41 in for elbow operation ( the 8th attempt ) gets a blood clot and passes away this past Monday. Leaves my friend and a two young kids ..... went to see him yesterday and dropped some needed items off for him and the kids and you can see the pain/ hurt in his eyes... may she RIP. :crying::crying::crying:
OMG, thats terrible news.
Very SAD,
Terrible news, hits home as I had a massive pulmonary embolism and was in the hospital for a week last fall (I am 40).
Condolences to your friend and his young family
^^^^what they said^^^^
My condolences to your friend and family - that's just awful for something like that to go so wrong.
