70: In GameStop Robinhood, and Your Legal Rights, Alex Darr, Attorney & founder of LawDog, joins host William Glass to discuss the meme stock mania, investing using arbitrage, and your rights in arbitration. Whether you know it or not, when you sign up for many technology services you give away your right to sue in open court agreeing instead to Arbitration. Specifically, Alex discusses arbitration cases rising from Robinhood’s decision to halt trading on GameStop, AMC, and other Meme stocks made popular by Reddit's r/WallStreetBets. Additionally, Alex is a bit of a trader himself having spent several years between a big corporate law firm gig and starting LawDog, trading stocks. Alex used a financial technique called arbitrage, not to be confused with arbitration, to make some money. You'll learn the difference between arbitrage and arbitration, and how you can bring a FINRA arbitration suit if you have been harmed as a financial services consumer.
