Citadel proactively reached out to become an investor, seeing it as an opportunity to \"buy low\", Mr Plotkin said in his remarks.\nMelvin Capital lost billions closing out its GameStop position and reducing other wagers. The firm's assets fell to about US$8 billion in January after starting the year with US$12.5 billion.\nKeith Gill, a Reddit user known as \"Roaring Kitty\" who is credited with inspiring GameStop's rally, will testify that he was merely an individual investor using public information to study companies.\nMr Gill, one of the most influential participants pushing GameStop on the WallStreetBets Reddit forum, was sued this week in Massachusetts for misrepresenting himself as an amateur investor and profiting by artificially inflating the price of the stock.\n\"I did not solicit anyone to buy or sell the stock for my own profit,\" Mr Gill said in his testimony. \"I did not belong to any groups trying to create movements in the stock price. I never had a financial relationship with any hedge fund. I had no information about GameStop except what was public. I did not know any people inside the company, and I never spoke to any insider.\"\nJennifer Schulp, director of financial regulation studies at Cato Institute and a late addition to the hearing's lineup of speakers, will testify that rule changes may not be warranted in light of the minimal impact on markets. \"By no means, though, should the GameStop phenomenon result in changes that restrict retail investors' access to the markets,\" she said.\nIn his testimony, Mr Tenev described the morning of Jan 28, when the brokerage halted purchases of GameStop and other \"meme stocks\". At 5.11am, the industry's clearinghouse - a body that manages system-wide risk - demanded a deposit of more than US$1 billion from Robinhood, he said.\nBecause the sum demanded was even larger than the amount of net capital the online brokerage had on hand, an additional charge of US$2.2 billion was slapped on top, bringing the total amount due to about US$3 billion. Robinhood complied with its net capital requirements at all times during this period, the company says.\nAround 7.30am, in a scramble to meet the requirements, Robinhood decided to stop customers from buying GameStop and other volatile stocks. The clearinghouse then agreed to waive the entire US$2.2 billion charge it had initially added, according to Mr Tenev's account. With an additional US$737 million deposit that morning, combined with the amount Robinhood had already posted at the clearinghouse, the broker met its requirements for that day.\nTo help prevent last month's events from happening again, Robinhood has called on regulators to make the settlement period for stock trades instantaneous. Citadel's Mr Griffin also called for a shorter settlement time.\nMr Griffin said the current two-day requirement \"exposes firms to more risk in the time between execution and settlement, requiring higher capital levels\". He also advised that clearinghouse capital requirements be made more transparent.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":null,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":366424696,"gmtCreate":1614556174115,"gmtModify":1703478114843,"author":{"id":"3560241002253187","authorId":"3560241002253187","name":"CL777","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e9aef3dd830373a0427a3447b1b564e3","vip":1,"crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"htmlText":"No
