LOL it's still at $51 a share. There are people who bought it when it was in the single digit range, even the double digit that got out of it when it was almost $500. Something like $35M worth of holdings on GME and I can bet you that a lot of those are people who bought when it was $300+ and they are camping out hoping it will resurge. I don't see that happening as most people if it does start to rise will sell as soon as they break even. Most need to cut their losses. It was a pump and dump on a grand scale and lots of people made out like bandits.

Not OP but I can bet there will be changes in the rules or at least hedgefunds are going to figure out how to look out for these things. These guys aren't where they are because they are stupid. They may have been fooled once, but they won't be fooled again, you can bet that. They are the house and the house always wins. Sometimes, someone figures something out and makes some winnings but they usually get thrown out and those machines or games will change. Not long ago watched about how a guy figured out how one of the games at a casino worked as far as the algorithm worked and played against it. Didn't cheat, but figured their game out. He got banned, and they changed the machines. Tried to sue, they sued him.

Looks like it to me too. I actually hold a few positions in a number of them. Made out like a bandit this week. Just found out Redditors are starting to pump SNDL, OGI, TLRY and probably a few others.

Let's me know it's time to GTFO before it crashes and burns.

You’ll never see the term ‘bag holder’ better illustrated in investing than this. Literal cult like losers that got in at the end with a desire to make a quick buck , while convincing themselves they were sticking it to some hedge fund, only to lose big time


Congrats to the OG WSBers who made a mint off that. It was a fantastic play. The newbies though suck ass

I remember reading a post from WSB that said GameStop has good fundamentals and it's a smart play to hold lmao. That's a clear indication that those people got suckered into holding bags.

When it’s on the nightly boomer news that’s you prompt to exit stage left.

Only counter argument to this ive seen is Bitcoin. I’m still skeptical it won’t get nuked but for now it keeps going up

I think the pandemic crash was much closer to a "once in a lifetime event" if such a thing even exists. Something like COVID-19 is a 1-in-100-year occurrence, and the most recent equivalent would be the flu pandemic in 1918

Chitty stocks are pumped and dumped all the time, and short squeezes aren't really rare either. You could have thrown a dart at a board in March 2020 and have at least 2x gains right now while being able to comfortably invest a lot more money (and make bigger gains on a lower %) because you're buying established, successful companies whose stock prices have suddenly been hit by a once-in-a-century pandemic


Much easier than putting a smaller amount of money into an ultra-high-risk meme stonk hoping you're the 0.00000001% timing everything perfectly and making off like a bandit

Strong this, I got my bonus right after the stock market crashed back in march and put it in at the bottom. Wish it stayed down for longer, I could have put more in

And what do you know... Reddit crashed these stocks again. OGI and SNDL are temporarily suspended on Webull. I can’t fuking stand these autist redditors. Next time they rally behind a stock I’m in, I’ll be selling immediately.
