A Facebook group dedicated to discussion of stock trading on the Robinhood app was suspended by the social media site on Wednesday amid a frenzy of investment activity that has shaken Wall Street markets this week.

The community, called Robinhood Stock Traders, counted more than 150,000 users as members before being pulled offline by Facebook. Its founder Allen Tran, 23, said that he received the notification on January 27 and defined the move as censorship.
