> it was obvious the market was recovering in a big way

Was it? Markets started up today but ended way lower.

It was more then just that though. Robinhood was displaying incorrect market data for the few people who could see it. (at least on monday)

So now you also have people making decisions based on the wrong data.

Honestly I dont see how this doesnt turn into a lawsuit.

I’ve observed very wrong prices on both vanguard and google finance several times over the last year.

He is talking about Monday not today, Tuesday. RH didn’t work on Monday either.

Yes and the point is that today it looked the same as yesterday in the morning but it didn't turn out to be a bounce. It wasn't "obvious" that everything would rise on Monday. Only in retrospect.

Yes, there was nothing “obvious” about the market on Monday morning. Saying otherwise implies the ability to predict the market.

I think they meant to say the “loss makes sense”, not that Friday/Monday’s move was predictable
