      Look, a lot of people are upvoting this take, so I’ll bite. How does this manipulate the stock market?

        Well, I can’t see votes because I turned them off. Everyone should try it, it makes life wonderful.

        To answer your question, if you have a group of people following your every word, and you start making predictions about things. Those people might take you seriously, and start pulling their money out of the stock market, which would cause it to drop.

        Realistically, even if that happened the chances of a “crash” are pretty minimal because he’s full of shit.

        However, trying to manipulate the stock market, successful or not, could be considered illegal.

        My comment is really 80% humor, 15% mocking the judicial system, and 5% serious.
