[@rodolfodavalos5908]

Flawless!!

[@TheIvyLens]

There’s needs to be more transparency on citadel, dark pools, and market makers period

[@user-ud5vq3ut1y]

Why would he do that? His job is to rob the market with any gimmick possible, did you learn nothing from the gamestop fiasco?

[@xgengx7530]

Nope

[@barbarapennington-cn7ky]

UPS laid off 12,000 union workers and closed Pittsburg distribution center...just one example of why employment is softening. SC sweet deal with boeing was $600,000,000 and non-union.

[@stnkmstrtape9543]

This didn’t seem scripted one bit. That studio audience needed better cues maybe.

[@JamesBond-kz9qg]

easy to win when you market make the orders and run a hedge fund against those trades.

[@vinodhcashout6711]

Bro I thought I made this comment for a sec 😂

[@xgengx7530]

Both fools

[@Pug318]

Great interview so much knowledge, very enjoyable

[@rogerarnold7]

Who is operating the cameras for CNBC? Very shaky video.

[@tomspeed3354]

Unbelievable. It was the trainee I got a headache.

[@leonardos2925]

The GOAT of the financial sector: effective, has engaged in philantropy, leaved a woke State to the booming South, and support politicians who want to take power to the people, not the State!

[@edwinbab705]

Voice volume not good

[@eileenahern-ku9nx]

Without the farmers none of the above interview ( whatever they talking about) the land belongs to the people not the elite Go the farmers ❤

[@lukey1210]

Kenny looking like an 80 year old choir boy

[@nicholas8997]

ok crypto shitto kiddo Lol

[@xgengx7530]

GME bag holder 😂😂😂

[@lukey1210]

He was banned from china

[@Recraw7]

this video is SO quiet

[@mjjabarian8246]

He wants to run for President next term, so obvious from the way he’s speaking

[@AnonymousanonymousA]

i hope he goes to prison now till the end of his life and ends up in debt, penniless, and exposed!

[@MP3Fitness24]

Good job Leslie!

[@youngloenoe]

"Economic Freedom" You get to pick which debt is going to impact your life more. Is it car debt, school debt, medical bill debt, housing?

[@vinodhcashout6711]

I pick mortgage 🙂

[@Sabbie3518]

The convo was so good until she dropped that final question. Ken tried to save her face by concluding on a different note but she insisted on ending there… Overall very informative interview.

[@TC-ng9ne]

Criminal

[@FabsBlog07]

Amc bag holder spotted

[@suliekhan2621]

we aint selling gamestop

[@xgengx7530]

Stay broke boy

[@No_Pie_2109]

Ken Griffin lied under oath and belongs in prison.

[@lukey1210]

And beat his wife with a bedpost and threw up 🤮 in the congressional hearing

[@vinodhcashout6711]

what did he lie about?

[@xgengx7530]

You belong in prison

[@xgengx7530]

​@@vinodhcashout6711he's just a mad AMC/GME bag holder 😂😂😂

[@leonardos2925]

You belong in prison, little Demrat. You have your hate, he have major contributions in every area, from hospitals to museums, vax, schools, universities and so on. Dude's the MVP, you hate him because your idol is Soros... which is just another villain who supports control, censorship, higher taxes and woke agendas in schools!

[@Ira06002]

One risk Ken touched on with Harvard could have been further expanded as to the talent crisis the U.S. faces.

[@stupidstv3432]

Citadel CEO Ken Griffin. When are you going to retire?

[@dogbox2290]

Brilliant ☀️🌴Great questions and even better answers.

[@gero_dev]

The tide is changing. Incredible to watch. I think X gets some credit here

[@mattp9457]

Ken, what was the conversation like when Vlad the Stock Impaler agreed to shut down GME trading on Robinhood so that you could steal millions from retail investors?

[@TC-ng9ne]

Yeah Ken, answer the question

[@johanwesthuyzen7422]

Amen!

[@danseibel5668]

Yeah Ken care to comment on the billions of assets you’ve sold without purchasing??

[@AnonymousanonymousA]

he does it daily ergo why 95% of options traders lose all their money their 1st month

[@AnonymousanonymousA]

guy is the devil

[@4AMPizza]

Leslie could have thrown a couple of tougher questions...this was just too easy...especially when he's talking up Trump. Leslie could have pushed a little harder.

[@vinodhcashout6711]

or talking up Nikki Haley lmfao

[@firstname4297]

He belongs in prison.

[@lukey1210]

Yes

[@greeneyedbanditelixirgreen6449]

Kenny boi how many fake shares are out there?

[@AnonymousanonymousA]

tip of the iceberg

[@carnerageno]

CNBC executives had a meltdown on Ken's remarks on Trump, im really surprised the station didnt go dark

[@Moe-eh5uv]

that is the man, which will make millionaires of GAMESTOP stockhodlers

[@SPS_SM]

Cognitive dissonance!

[@motormania5250]

Seriously. What Kool-Aid does Ken drink daily???

[@SPS_SM]

@@motormania5250 whiney old snowflake doesn't just drink kool-aid, may be some cocktail of it with expensive vodka!

[@travelingman3732]

Yes, I agree. You display cognitive dissonance by posting nonsensical sentence fragments and failing to clarify your meaning,

[@AnonymousanonymousA]

​@@motormania5250praying he just gets sent to prisin asap

[@trumpyla]

finally Ken came to he senses and he is very very smart guy! but sometimes you need a small disturbance to change his beliefs! i believe Jamie Dimon was a catalyst (smartest guy on wall st with the soul)

[@jmanjr]

Time to start your pivot to Bitcoin now Ken!!

[@cman86s]

They should make him pay a wealth tax!

[@travelingman3732]

Good for Ken for speaking out against the DEI and political correctness running amok in institutions of higher learning around our country. Sometimes you have to tear it all down and rebuild again.

[@samoth5161]

No thanks, it's better when bigots aren't allowed to freely be bigots. Only clowns call that "political correctness"

[@AnonymousanonymousA]

u know he made his money robbing everyone in the world?

[@1therabbithole]

Wow wsb people really a regarded. He is the enemy numb nuts

[@travelingman3732]

@@AnonymousanonymousA I don't have any particular affinity for rich bankers or greedy folks in the financial industry. They do strike me as being something like hyenas in fancy suits. But I do respect him for speaking out against the cancer of DEI infecting academia.

[@lukey1210]

Kenny ageing so badly

[@Balilaci69]

Leslie Picker made a mistake because 2023 Tesla made more electric car than BYD. Leslie you should not count in the hybrids because Tesla not manufacturing any!!!!

[@juanzizi1245]

He might be intelligent, but I don't know if he has much empathy.

[@vinodhcashout6711]

Most billionaires don't lol

[@xgengx7530]

Who cares he's a winner 🏆

[@user-tb8ow4ke8v]

He should be careful at his age for the risk of prostate cancer

[@bleacherz7503]

We should be taxing Griffen a 90% - citadel skims $$ and creates inflation

[@AnonymousanonymousA]

it manipulates the market not just skims

[@AnonymousanonymousA]

it literally is the devil

[@TheIvyLens]

It’s shameful that the government allows it because they get a cut on the tax implications the more trading volume occurs. Yet, our 401k and pensions are tied to this ecosystem. If you think about it, the public market is the ultimate pyramid scheme.

[@jaykerwin4549]

Haha so ridiculous . You got ma money?!

[@Markis2998]

Great work Citadel and Kenneth Griffin

[@Agent77X]

I buy a Hyundai BEV because I did want to be something made by Elon Musk!😊

[@smsfelipe]

Maybe abandon the politics-driven EV-only wet dream and let the poor Californians choose freely what is more cost effective for them to buy?

[@AnonymousanonymousA]

that crazy _ is acting like he is a politician with security clearance, ... and if he does how exactly rigged is this system????

[@evdombrowski1]

Let’s track Chinese emissions during their production/manufacturing cycles and see how competitive their products are after the US and EU enact a pollution tax. That’s your policy answer

[@michaeljiang960]

lets ask if americans are willing to pay for double the price of their every day purchases.

[@evdombrowski1]

@@michaeljiang960 Already been answered and FDI proves it. Americans are willing to pay a higher cost to shift some manufacturing to other democracies, like India, Mexico, Philippines etc, and bring the rest home

[@nlabanok]

Shut up and invest. Why do these titans of financial calamity think the world gives AF about their politics ?

[@raghuhv9674]

A rich wallst ceo 🧑‍💼. Didn't hear any insights - "oh there could be soft landing or no landing 🛬 " wow - a high school kid can come up with that 😂😂 Hez watched too many western movies 🎥 to promote posturing 😂😂

[@lil-brazey1642]

Watching you in the uk and you kit are pure propaganda. Why you always taking about trump?

[@gregjoseph7195]

Ken talking his book at the expense of democracy. What a shocking interview. He'd be one of those corporatists defending the Reich 60 years ago.

[@draneym2003]

You just admitted that the economy is looking good...in a story on CNBC. And your solution? Let's get Trump back in there to demolish it again.

[@amymiller9718]

His lying promotion of Trump was pathetic. Of course he benefitted hugely from the Trump tax cuts.

[@HHHWLH]

Knucklehead Ken Griffin.

[@Kevin-oc2jb]

The single biggest market manipulator on the planet.

[@WiCapitalco]

I'd love to speak with Ken. He's incredibly well-spoken and very fair with humanity as a whole, unlike the bankers.

[@AnonymousanonymousA]

that's why ur broke

[@lukey1210]

He’s evil

[@leonardolabanino6123]

Lol

[@xgengx7530]

He's a good man

[@zebredpooding]

This guy should run for president

[@secretsaltshake]

Yes, let’s give the presidency to a protege of Bernie Madoff 👍

[@vinodhcashout6711]

​@@secretsaltshake I don't think Ken Griffin is as scheming as Madoff lol
