GAMESTOP INVESTOR CHAMATH PALIHAPITIYA DESTROYS CNBC SCOTT WAPNER ON HALFTIME REPORT

GAMESTOP INVESTOR CHAMATH PALIHAPITIYA Wednesday on CNBC’s “Fast Money: Halftime Report,” Palihapitiya said, “I ended up closing out my position this morning, and I wanted to announce that I’m taking all the profits that I made plus my original position — I’m going to take $500,000 and I’m going to donate it.”
Palihapitiya dismissed Wall Street criticism about how individual investors are banding together on social media — particularly the wallstreetbets Reddit message board, and short-squeezing GameStop and a handful of other stocks like pros — as hypocritical. He said hedge funds try to push stocks around all the time.
