Those type of DD have made into CLOV / UWMC / RKT etc etc. Just sets nice traps to find bag holders.


GME is manipulated without question.

But hedge funds have too many tools to phuck over retail.
so they played it for 2 years already with cohen,br,dfv as main cast actors ?and those sec hearings,new rules implemented last month,msm narrative anti gme etc .
i understand your position with hf's having all power to skew it in their direction at the same time,why they didnt bankrupt at this point .if retails is minor float holder,doesnt it mean measly pennies to create such involved operation in such long period of time ?
what exactly im missing beside "hidden superpower" of hedge funds and government stopping it at some point ?

they got caught with pants down.

shorting always happens and will continue to do so until regulation changes...big players can and do hide everything behind dark pools.

at end of day if citadel blows up government steps in.

Citadel and Melvin ate through $10 billion losses they could probably eat another $20 billion and survive.

We saw that whole archegos capital blow up and market ate through it.

Credit Suisse is rumored to have double loss what is reported to news.

I agree with this but I think they are already stepping in. Delaying 004 for another month will keep us going sidesways for a bit potentially, but with how high margin debt is going, who knows when it pops. Everyone is getting ready to gobble up the assets of the shorters and just leading this along until they have all their shears ready to shave the cat after it gets let out the bag.

If we ignore this short fiasco.

Look at chart since 2002.

GME has done nothing had few pops around 2008 and 2013 and its been declining since than.

This is $10 dollar stock at best, in declining industry.

Its like watching Blockbuster crash and burn. Maybe they have some master plan to do something extraordinary but where is it?



Once you include short interest into discussion something will happen no idea when I have no shares in GME but sure as hell will jump in options.

There wouldn't be so much posturing and phuckery behind scenes with GME.

Deck is always stacked against retail.

I agree without question there is phuckery going on.

But let me ask you how is GME any different than Blockbuster?

Everyone that is holding GME is not in it for their business but for the squeeze.

Once squeeze is done stock will tumble.

Q3 & Q4 brah. Oil prices consistently @ $60+, free cash flow will be great, dividends might be fully reinstated again. Chit is a steal @ $25, looking at almost 7% dividends if they reinstate the previous amount.

Unless COVID truly destroys demand again, I’ll be amazed if SU stays at this price into late 2021 much less 2022


It being your worst position is indicative of the value here, and that’s why I’m buying

I bought back into oil today as well.

I'm hoping it drops lower tomorrow.

Biggest online retailer for pc parts, games,consoles with fastest delivery on most common items due to large brick and mortar stores network ,possibly cheapest prices due to volume.
Newegg,amazon will have to figure out both aspects
Why would they bring cohen with amazon top dogs ,just for squeeze ?

Have you seen the financials on GME?

Do you think it will be $500 stock based on merit?

I don't think anyone thinks that even DFV.

Cohen has done zero interviews regarding GME.

If there is huge turn around and plan coming maybe its time to announce it any time now till year end.


Also that Amazon guy

Wilke will focus on increasing customer loyalty and growing the reach of GameStop’s “Power Up Rewards” and “Game Informer” programs. He also will work on initiatives that include expanding the company’s use of customer insights and metrics to optimize channel marketing.

"Consider rule changes" sounds like we will let GME blow over and nothing will come about.

Happy I didn't get caught in any day trades ^ lookin like the noobs who got in on this hype have learned a hard lesson today.

To all the bros long this is when you don't look at your portfolio/don't think about it, live your life and things will be green again later on. This is the time to start buying, its a good day for people who had cash on the sidelines.

So buy 10-25% of your total planned position and wait to buy more AKA average in and out.

Never watch those events. Probably recap on apple youtube channel.

Just read Verge article after.

Pre market this morning saw lot of hype. repeated call buying over and over.

Figured someone knew something. Well yeah it didn't work.

Imo these plays are max 5 to 10 calls. Never ever risk more on weekly.

If we get reversal buying into close in market.

I can still exit at lower loss.
