Calling people here halfwits yet you are the one who seems to don’t understand how shorting works..what a regard.

Yes I know how shorting works - I also understand that Citadels huge profits arent due to merely “sEcUrItiEs pUrChaSed nOt soLd”

So go ahead explain how they actually made that much profit? Literally everything was in red last year except energy stocks..are you telling me they yoloed their entire portfolio into energy stocks? And yes “securities sold but not purschase” means they were massively short..infact they had more short positions than assets under management..
