They also bankrupted Bruce through theft.

That was one of the biggest things that took me out of that movie. They stage this huge operation at the Gotham Stock Exchange or wherever, everybody knows this giant crime is happening there, but woops, looks like Bruce Wayne has been magically bankrupted, there's nothing we can do about it. It just took me out of it thinking, "I don't think you can just bankrupt a billionaire like that."

It's really crazy, because not only is it obvious, the stock market has several protections for more or less this. Trading is routinely halted when weird things happen like massive plunges in price. Rollbacks are also a thing that happen somewhat regularly for all sorts of reasons.

I totally agree, really took me out of the movie too.

I find it funny in a world with a billionaire dressing up as a bat, the most ridiculous thing is how they commit white collar crime. I think largely it seemed to easy and also soo stupid that batman wouldn't have a diversified portfolio with things not all tied up in the stock market.
