“Whoever is still holding gloves (has) already been through hell, join me by saying ‘eff you’ to investment banks, fund managers, market manipulators, and everyone else,” said a user called ‘_Revenant_’ who started the BursaBets forum.

Malaysia's stock exchange is called Bursa.
Bursabets said it would target JP Morgan for now after the US-based investment bank predicted the selling price of rubber gloves to drop on the back of expectation that the Covid-19 pandemic will die out soon, as most governments begin to vaccinate their population.
