    @don can you please look into naked short selling of stocks? Robinhood offers stock lending and gives you a small percentage. But the stock they borrow actually loses value. Then in a matter of weeks it recovers to about 50 of its lost. So let's say $100 per share, goes down to about $30 and the back to $65. I think they are manipulating the stock price by selling in mass and then re buying to give back. Isn't that illegal? Doesn't that hurt the companies and its stockholders?
