From the WSJ:

E*Trade is considering telling meme-stock leader Keith Gill he can no longer use its platform after growing concerned about potential stock manipulation around his recent purchases of GameStop options, according to people familiar with the matter.

At E*Trade and its owner Morgan Stanley, that power created concerns he can pump up a stock for his own benefit. Their debate includes whether his actions amounted to manipulation and whether or not the firm is willing to risk drawing the attention of his meme army by removing him, according to people familiar with their internal discussions.

This market resolves YES if there are credible news report that Keith Gill has been involuntarily kicked off or removed from the E*Trade platform by EOD on June 19th. It resolves NO by default (in the absence of any credible reports).

  • It also counts if his account has been so severely limited (far beyond that of a typical user) that it is functionally similar to being removed from the platform.

  • It can't just be the promise of future enforcement (e.g. after June, they won't accept any new trades from him).

  • June 19th seems like a reasonable deadline because Keith Gill (a.k.a. u/deepfuckingvalue) has ~$65 million in call options expiring on June 21st. So if E*Trade wants to step in, they may need to move quickly.

  • If any scenarios for resolution are unclear, please ask.

I believe this resolves NO.

Agreed. We don’t have a recent screenshot from his account as proof, but I haven’t heard anything about him being removed drone E*trade so unless people dan find some evidence I’ll resolve this NO

Second daily update just dropped—the paper value of his position is ~$280 million (up >$80 million in one day).
