And we're wrapping up here. Lots of tough questions for Robinhood and Citadel. Reddit and Gill were largely hailed by members of both parties. And Melvin Capital just sort of... disappeared for a while. — PolitiTweet.org

Asked to describe his own specific mistakes and what he apologizes for, Tenev gets tongue-tied. "I -- I admit to always improving," he stammers. "And certainly we're not going to be public -- perfect --" — PolitiTweet.org

Whenever Keith Gill is shown looking down at his screen and smiling slightly, I like to imagine he's just scrolling through the WSB Discord/reddit megathread and giggling to himself about the situation — PolitiTweet.org

Tenev disclosed two important stats that I'm not sure I knew before: More than half of Robinhood's revenue comes from payment for order flow, and Citadel is the biggest recipient of Robinhood trade orders. Sheds light on Robinhood's underlying business model. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Sean Casten with a polite but devastating critique of Robinhood: "There is an innate tension in your business model between democratizing finance, which is a noble calling, and being a conduit to feed fish to sharks." — PolitiTweet.org

Reddit's CEO basically subtweets CNBC, for allegedly encouraging "what I would call bad investment decisions" and having analysts on who are not transparent about their motivations or "what large positions they may hold" — PolitiTweet.org

Go on any investing subreddit and the complaints about traditional brokerages is always about their clunky interfaces, not the product. If RH has "democratized" finance, it's by creating a nicer onramp for new investors. But let's not kid ourselves that it's much more than that. — PolitiTweet.org

This idea that Robinhood is some sort of groundbreaker because it offers fee-free trading and fractional investments seems kind of misleading. Vanguard, Fidelity and other brokerages have had this for years. What sets RH apart is the convenience and simplicity of its app and UX. — PolitiTweet.org

Rep. Vargas asks Griffin how many people are in the room with him. "There are five people including myself," Griffin says. Vargas retorts that Citadel has "plenty of help" whereas retail investors don't have that luxury. — PolitiTweet.org

Schulp, a former FINRA official, says she doesn’t see evidence of market manipulation on WSB. “I do think the SEC should look," she said, "but to this point I see very little that would meet a test for manipulation, which generally invovles falsely deceptive behavior." — PolitiTweet.org

Tenev addresses the case of the Robinhood suicide: "I'm sorry to the family of Mr. Kearns.... it was a tragedy and we went into immediate action" by taking steps such as changing the customer interface and "adding options education" and adding live human support. — PolitiTweet.org

Kind of remarkable that in a hearing analyzing how well the markets really serve retail investors, that there's only been one question so far seeking input from a retail investor on how well the system serves people like him. — PolitiTweet.org
