Diamond Hands: The Legend of WallStreetBets at Ballroom A

Mar 13, 2022

7:00pm – 8:29pm CT

It was the perfect storm. A global pandemic. An app aspiring to democratize trading. A group of Reddit users stuck at home with stimulus dollars to burn. And a video game company on its last legs. DIAMOND HANDS is the incredible true story of how an army of retail traders rallied around GameStop to rock our financial system. This is the legend of r/WallStreetBets.
