Robinhood kneecaps the high-flying stocks

Robinhood users are reporting that the brokerage is sending messages that users are no longer allowed to buy shares of GameStop and AMC Entertainment. People who have them are allowed to sell.

Naturally — knowing there are no buyers — people are dumping the shares. GME is down to $295 from a pre-market high of $513.
