DJ Says He Made More Money Shorting Spotify In 1 Month Than His Lifetime Royalties

A great trader finds a way to play both sides of the market.  Though navigating equity markets is not exactly in his core job description as a touring DJ and electronic music producer, THIEVES has found an additional stream of income from Spotify aside from his monthly royalties. And he says it’s paying far better dividends. “I’ve made more money shorting Spotify this month than they’ve paid me in royalties thru [sic] my whole music career,” THIEVES tweeted. “Shorting Spotify stock is my new career it seems.” THIEVES has amassed over 15.5 million streams on his top 10 most popular songs on Spotify alone.

He insisted that the award of the contract and the subsequent p...

He added that unlike the Niger Delta militants protesting pollution of their areas, bandits do not deserve amnesty as they are “faceless criminals”. “From investigations, we have even discovered that some of them were Boko Haram fighters,” he said. “Some of them have confessed to having fought with Boko Haram. And now, you have these people infiltrating, collecting money for ransoms, raping women and sending them back to Boko Haram. “Anybody who is comparing them to militants in the Niger Delta, I want to...
