Buck Breaking Watch: Citigroup at $1.04

Today could be the day, people.
First commenter to guess the date and time of the buck breaking will win… well, we aren’t sure yet. Maybe a “Don’t Short Me, Bro!’ mug.
You’ve got to beat it by 10 minutes people, I mean c’mon.

    Why even trade this POS anymore. Just remove it from your screen and find some greener pastures.

    Can I swap the mug for your digits—or Bess’s digits if you’re actually a dude?
