Somewhere along the way, they realized that doing so would cause huge damage to a couple of hedge funds, and many believe such organizations to be at the root cause of a lot of economic problems, so some probably hopped on in hopes of sticking it to the man.

Then it got momentum, and you have random Joe's who don't really have any idea what they're doing but jumped on because they see people posting how much money they've "made." Eventually, the bottom is going to drop out, and it'll likely be these types that will get screwed.

So from my perspective, it's a little of everything.
I'm wondering if there's a handful of leaders of this cabal. Pied Pipers so to speak with lot's of cash to work with who are stringing this along. This is supposed to be the little guys doing this but I have my doubts it's just them.
