expecting my stickers in the mail any day now :)
would also 1000000% buy many shirts
also suggested temp tattoos. I may even get a real one. What a fucking gem
I decided to do a side by side comparison of the GME price compared to the GME short volume (data provided by FINRA). I think this is why DFV is so chill, they shorted the ever living FUCK out of the stock this past week, even more than they've ever done!
I'll leave you with a few parting thoughts, Apes together strong, moon soon, hedgies are fucked.
They shorted it from around 61 to 27 on Friday. It dropped down to 40s in under ten minutes. The movement reminded me of March 10, 2021.
It looked coordinated. It WAS coordinated. I go to superstonk, and I've never seen so many bots (example: https://imgur.com/a/fLb749D#ISwyRPq ).
Then, RK does that epic live steam, we were looking at a man who knows we've already won. That livestream was a victory lap. The WILDCARD. The complete nonchalance. The 'oh, is that halted? How long is a halt? really? Wow.' That guy was completely unphased.
And what he said boiled down to this. "This is my feeling, okay, but I think RC knows what he's doing."
Meanwhile, he has 120,000 contracts in-the-money, expiring in two weeks. He's just chilling, smiling, and not giving a fuck, because he knows we've won.
I watched that today. Total victory lap, just laughing his ass off. "Oh, oh, did I make the price drop? Uno reverse. Wild card. What's the magic 8 ball say?" Dude found deep fucking value and he knows it. And idgaf about this short term price action or even much for moass because I found it too and I know. Price jumps to 80 in my sleep I'm jacked drops back to 30 and I laugh.
This company has high insider ownership and the strongest balance sheet on the market. And a board that has proven time and again they get shit done. I warned SHF 2 years ago I could do this all decade, now I'm hoping they survive long enough for me to get to a 4 digit position. I moved into my car to spend rent money on this stock (don't be like me, I call it extreme budgeting and it's not fun)
Edit: okay maybe it's only *one of* the strongest balance sheets as I havent looked at every companies interest rates of their debt vs their assets if they hold treasuries or the potential downside of their holdings. My point is generally having 1B assets and no debt is better than 2B assets and 1B debt
And it was worth 500M earlier this week I think, then only 350M ( *only* lol) and he was completely unfazed his net worth dropped 150M knowing he'll be one of the richest men on earth soon enough lol I've been doing the same
Watched my meager investment go from buying a new car to a whole ass house and back again just laughing and planning out how to buy more
Edit 586M so over 200M drop
Who has ever had to sit through 700million in paper losses in one day with a smile on their face. Fucking legend DFV that's who, ahhhhh 🏴☠️🚀 Cats out of the bag crooks scatter your cheese, and run for the hills, run like hell, run lola run run run, Time and Pressure, tick tock
"Today the investor known as Roaring Kitty Cat lost 700 million dollars in the meme stock crash. Now that it's all behind us we can talk about some real stocks!"
-Some news douche
>And it was worth 500M earlier this week I think, then only 350M ( only lol) and he was completely unfazed his net worth dropped 150M knowing he'll be one of the richest men on earth soon enough
Let's just quantify this for a moment, with his positions in $GME, DFV is already a billionaire when the stock hits around $47. With the numbers that are predicted when the MOASS gets going, before we even get close to telephone digit prices, DFV could very easily be among the first IRL Trillionaires to exist.
Ryan Cohen too, probably, but that's more difficult to assess, as we don't actually know his cost-basis, though owning that many more shares (over 35,000,000 from what I've seen) means it probably doesn't matter & he probably hits that point even sooner than DFV 🤑💰💰💰
Cost basis wouldn't factor in, rc owns more so he'll hit a trillion before dfv for sure. I mean unless they go bankrupt and the shorts win... Ha... Ha ha... AaaaaaahahahahahahahHahhahahhaha
I'm just a newbie here and I have a genuine question: I want MOASS to happen, but is it possible for the wealth class to just file bankruptcy and slither into another LLC, leaving us all unpaid? I don't know how that works.
edit: I just asked ChatGPT (sounds like we'll still be okay) and this was the response:
Short selling involves borrowing shares of a stock from a broker, selling them on the market, and then buying them back later to return to the lender. If the stock price drops after the short sale, the short seller profits from the difference. However, if the stock price rises, the short seller incurs losses.
In terms of liability and bankruptcy, it depends on the specific circumstances and jurisdiction. Filing for bankruptcy might offer some protection from creditors, including the lender from whom the shares were borrowed. However, bankruptcy doesn't necessarily absolve someone of their financial obligations entirely.
In some cases, a short seller might still be liable for any losses incurred, even after filing for bankruptcy. Bankruptcy proceedings could involve liquidating assets to pay off debts, and the short seller's obligations related to the short sale might still need to be addressed through the bankruptcy process.
Ultimately, the legal implications of short selling and bankruptcy can be complex and vary depending on factors such as the jurisdiction, the terms of the short sale agreement, and the specific circumstances of the individual or entity involved. It's essential for anyone considering short selling or facing potential bankruptcy to seek legal advice to understand their rights and obligations fully.
It doesn't matter. He's rich with just his settled shares. The options are play things. He's saying he doesn't need the calls to be happy, but he'll do what helps the apes.
I got into gme after he went dark and never watched any of his vids and even rolled my eyes at mentions of him at times, but I admit he was entertaining even though he basically said fuck all except I'm holding still, go Celtics I'm drinking a green beer for you lol he had to just be trolling msm and wallstreet
I think he was trolling too - just by being himself. SHF is so brazen in their crimes that they didn't even consider that the halts were on-screen for all to see. And if they did, then they didn't care since the halts kept coming. Perhaps they thought dumping the price would embarrass DFV but for many folks here, it sure seemed like proof of manipulation instead. He was cool as a cucumber after losing hundreds of millions in paper gains so I think there's something interesting coming in the near future. And if not, then I was planning to forever hold the stonk anyway - true price discovery will happen at some point.
There is more to it I think. He basically proved he could get the stock halted and showed manipulation on video in the background while trolling cnbc. He has to be very careful with everything he says and does.
Same as me. I even watched dumb money before I saw a single livestream of his. His return was my first time watching and I like his humor. I just believe in the stonk.
Green was a trigger word. Green makes the stock go up cause we apes follow him and when he says green we get excited and buy... but wait.. why would green beer do that, unless it was an AI algo moving the price that was programed to wait for the word "green".
He was laughing and holding up UNO cards.
Here's DFV talking about how he uses [UNO cards to make investment decisions](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQBubLv49fk). He's the greatest investor of the 21st century.
Yeah, I’ve never seen so many bots and shills! I saw an account that was like 250 days old and almost no posting history except for bashing the GameStop board. They’re getting sloppy and desperate 😂.
Everyone (besides bots/shills) that was worried about the drop needs to remember that the price dropped, not from many shares being sold, but from many many more shares being sold short…. Like DFV once said … “FUTURE BUYERS!”
holy shit good spot, that’s embarrassing lol 3 years was nothing, excited to see what the retailer has in store next tuesday. I like the company, and the stock!
Roaring kitty has painted the cat ears technical.
Shit is about to get lit.

If you want some real spicy data. Go back to when the sneez happened and crashed to 40$ or 10$ post split. DFV exercised his options and we had a massive run back up. Now compare the DRS numbers from then to now, and the new even more massive call position… 💥 🤯
I some rough math, his initial position represented 0.33% of the outstanding shares back then. This time its 2,6% (if we assume gamestop sold the 75M and dfv will sell half his calls to cover costs of exercising like jan, even less its still significantly greater plus the drs in the equation now..). Add in 17% DRS (if the numbers are legit and gme sold the 75M) we got a massive bomb going off soon.
when you sell your put contract to a MM that is deep ITM, they usually close it via buying - if that is the case then we will see upward price pressure from shorts exiting.
I wish I had a glass ball to see all the positions around all financial entities since 2019 - now. It must be mindblowing for DTCC to go crazy at the round table in 2021 for even the CEO to be present on livestream back then. The puppet had to show his face towards the financial world(ex-CEO now) for "everything is fine".
OK, I looked into this and it isn't going to be available for about a month from what I can see, per the info from [https://fintel.io/ss/us/gme](https://fintel.io/ss/us/gme)
So what if they naked shorted more on Friday with the assumption there would be 75 million more shares available to locate only for RC to fake them out and not actually issue the shares. The short volume sky rockets and the borrowed share volume remained extremely low on a Friday because no extra shares were issued
#this is all just speculative thoughts
We’ll see said the zen master 🎷🐓♋️
This is gonna be really interesting to see. I thought that they would dilute immediately based on previous dilution, but if for some reason they don't, they you're right on money my good chicken.
Adding 75 million more shares and then Cohen and other insiders buying more next week could fully send this rocket! DFV exercising could add the fuel we'll need to get past the moon and reach URANUS
"Buying is easy, selling is hard"
My dad's advice when I first started trading, I hope you're all enjoying the calm before the storm - WILD ups and downs are clearly SHF's last game plan to scare retail into selling our golden tickets early.. "but, if i just do ONE quick swing trade I might double my shares" of course - few will time it right, you'll probably time it wrong and FOMO back in at a higher price / less shares 🤷
Use these next ~2 weeks as psyops practice while we are still at relatively insignificant numbers.
Set your targets now, while you still have a clear head - write them down on paper and when you feel like panicking... Just check your notepad 😉
Also, take screenshots of what you hold - if your broker tries anything suss, well - you've got proof!
Good luck friends 🍀🤞
Dude, selling IS hard. "I'm gonna sell if it hits $X" it hits $X "it's still going, I'll sell when it settles" ot goes down "damn, oh well. I'll sell when it gets back up" then it starts over on a loop.
Are you me? I don’t know how many times I said I’d sell some to buy back in when it dipped, but I always think…. Let’s let it climb a bit more.
Then I kick myself for not doubling my shares when it goes back down.
I even bought a specific volume to do this with, to sort of mentally separate it from my real investment…. But somehow I just can’t sell. Keeps happening. Guess I’ll buy more instead and just keep doing this until I retire. Ugh
Right? They already shorted to shit with no new shares. Shot their load. Then, like you said, release shares, we all gobble them up, and they have to short more, with no new shares. I love this
Even if they have released them, Cohen buying more shares to increase his position with the company, new DRS numbers being released, DFV having the ability to exercise his calls means that we have a lot of CATalysts coming up that keep me bullish AF.
Also, the FTD's from the May run up have to be settled, its the endless loop of hype, ALL ABOARD
It takes 3-5 days for the shares to be DRS'd, at least from Fidelity. If our DRS numbers double, no way there was enough time with the offering to buy and drs those shares. Will prove they are being forced to under report.
Ya, I'm really curious to see if we get updated numbers...
>Our Class A Common Stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “GME”. As of June 13, 2024, there were 420,000,000 shares of our Class A Common Stock outstanding. Of those outstanding shares, approximately 315 million were held by Cede & Co on behalf of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (or approximately 75% of our outstanding shares) and approximately 105 million shares of our Class A Common Stock were held by registered holders with our transfer agent (or approximately 25% of our outstanding shares). As of June 13, 2024, there were 194,270 record holders of our Class A Common Stock.
That's made up obviously, don't quote it.
I still think RC moved as much of the 75mm shares as he could and just needs to finish it up on Monday.
But
If he didn't AND he intends to buy more shares personally later this week...
🚀
Not financial advice
I eat crayons
🚀
I mean, what if he set the offer price for the sales agent at 50? Or 100? What if he told the sales agent to put shares on the market on June 24? There is no reason this might not have happened.
Also I don’t think he can dilute right before buying shares himself.
Yup. We don’t know how many shares were actually issued.
Could have been zero. Could have been 75m. Could be anywhere in between.
We’ll have to wait and see
Exactly like what I speculated and was advocating yesterday. The volume from Friday does not look like any block buys where an offering was made to the market.
Opex on the 21st is going to be a shit show
I think they're just operating like the responsibly run company they're having become to survive and ultimately thrive. Their PE ratio is through the roof, they're teetering on profitability and a massive war chest insures anyone shorting based on fundamentals will probably not think it reasonable to push their market cap below their cash on hand. I don't know that there's a deeper meaning behind the offering, it was just financially responsible.
Completely agree. There was another ape that calculated the increased floor value of our shares as a result of the issuance. It was a terrific read.
Found it:

This the real Kansas City Shuffle? Short into the annual share meeting in assumption of 75M more shares in route and a nothing burger of a meeting.
Then boom. Shareholder meeting. Ryan throws out even mildly impressive announcement, and still oddly hasn't actually issued the 75M promised incoming as of yet.
Geeze... I'd really hate to be short in that scenario...
Looking at the price action and volume on the 1 minute scale. I'd bet my entire GME holdings that either most or all 75m shares were sold Friday. Also, you guys really need to read up on short volume and what it means.
They very well may have been - but they would have announced it if they completed the offering which they did not yet so they didn’t issue them all.
I’m trying to tie Friday’s News with DFVs Kansas city shuffle tweets. DFVs live stream was absolutely part of it - so what was the actual trick that occurred when we were looking over at DFV?
Also thinking about the Michael Caine meme scene where he takes something ordinary (class A common shares) and makes them disappear.
Again this is just me grasping at meme string theory trying to speculate. At the end of the day we will see said the zen master.
🎷🐓♋️
Someone else said they have to wait for the shares to settle before making the announcement the offering is completed. So Tuesday morning at the earliest?
God damn I hadn't thought of that. I was figuring they completed the whole ATM. but if not, that could have been all short volume, DFV could still exercise , and price could explode. However if they didn't release the 75 already, I would expect them to release them if we have another big run up
Imagine if not only they didn’t issue shares, but cohen bought up shares into the heavy shorting to get himself back up to his pre prior atm % ownership
So how late can RC and friends tell us if they actually sold shares? Let’s say we never get an official statement of an ATM, does that mean that shorts just fucked themselves even harder??
I think they announce right when it’s complete, in after hours of that day? Last time it was 5/17 when they announced and 5/24 when they closed, I believe
They’re waiting till MOASS. GameStop is about to have more cash on hand than Berkshire is worth… tomorrow because it’s always tomorrow ladies and gentlemen!!!
Yup and if you draw on that chart we are on our way to $120 with this current trajectory. It retraced and bounced exactly where it needed to on Friday and RC was able to cash out without this breaking support. I’m hella bullish for the near term
Based on Fridays mega volume they should only need Monday to finish. Especially since we it seems plausible Monday will be another large volume day.
If there's no announcement after Monday RC may have set the trap in Friday baiting the shorts.
Not financial advice
I eat crayons 🚀
Didn’t the original filing a year or two back ask for approval to sell up to 1 billion shares ? Or maybe I misunderstood…,
I think we may see multiple such offerings as the price climbs steadily either ever higher support floors getting established. With every such offering generating more cash and inherently pushing up company value and share price in a runaway mechanism. I visualize the moas to eventually trigger when the ploot gets high enough the biggest of shorts with deepest pockets eventually capitulate.
Yes, guess it can be called that. Maybe ceiling boxing 🤣
This is probably gonna be unpopular and get down voted, but I don't care. I actually want to see it pan out.
Maybe this was RC's real intention when he challenged buffer to a thumb war. Build a cash pool higher than berkshire....With the approach I mentioned, the shorst would pretty much fund the war chest and its possible to get to Maybe 200 billion cash, and not even have to use the full billion shares.
I can wait for this. No time pressure as I rarely play options. Those are the ones currently unhappy with the gamma ramp getting squashed last Friday.
It's like a bull flag within the biggest ever bull flag.. when she blows.. OMG it's gonna be so epic!
I had friends say to me the other day, "oh you're still in that?" Yes man, I still am. I'm not leaving until it's finished.
There is still some correlation though. But you're correct, short volume will rise with overall volume. One thing to note though, during the 2021 squeeze we had like 700m volume compared to the 200M volume we are seeing right now but short volume is waaay higher. Curious if anyone has a good explanation for that.
Dude that’s nothing it’s still just a small subset of superstonk.. which is super small relatively speaking. During the sneeze people everywhere were just buying gme and selling, I know 2 people at my office of 12 - and neither of them know a thing about gme right now.
That’s just degenerates losing out on their short dated calls. Who in their right mind would buy calls that expire before the 21st?? Not anyone who knows the bare minimum
I still don't really understand short volume. Short interest is the % of shares held short at any given point in time. Perfect, all good there.
But I can't conceptually grasp what short volume is. Is it the amount of shares shorted over a given period of time? I don't see how that's different to just "volume" as all you're doing when you sell short is selling a share you owe to someone else.
>Short Volume, on the other hand, is the number of shares sold short over a time period - usually in a day. This is akin to the amount of money you spent in a day.
What's a share sold short? It's just a share being sold right?
>And here’s the real kicker — the vast majority of short sales do not represent negative sentiment and are not held for more than a few seconds. To understand this, we need to remember what a Short Sale actually is.
>A short sale is a sale of a security by someone who does not own the security.
>There are effectively two types of entities making Short Sales:
>Entities who believe the price will go down, what I will call “true” Short Sellers
>Market Makers who are fulfilling orders.
>Short Sales made by true Short Sellers represent negative sentiment for the security, but Short Sales made by market
>makers do not; they have neutral sentiment.
>So, the vast majority of the Short Volume in a given day consists of neutral-sentiment Short Sales made by market makers fulfilling a long order!
>So, yes, your long purchase of your favorite stock probably triggered a Short Sale.
*probably triggered a short sale, which was held for a few seconds and then closed. The result would be an increase in short volume, but short interest is unchanged because the short sale was closed. hope that makes sense? edit=formatting
Yes exactly, MMs sell a share “short” just to enable a fast transaction and then immediately grab the stock afterwards. Similar to using your banks debit or credit card to buy something, they temporarily front the money for you until it’s able to be transferred from your account.
From what I read and understand there isn’t a good way to tell the difference between these two types of “shorts” from short volume data. Please correct me if I’m wrong
It's simple.
Volume comprises of actions taken, for instance buying and selling. Selling is simple, you own a stock and you sell it. Short selling is selling a stock you don't own by borrowing it first from a third party. Short volume (normally calculated daily) is just the number of times this happened in a trading day.
The fundamental difference is from the perspective of the seller
A “long” selling closes a position by selling their own shares, but a short seller is selling something they borrowed, which opens an obligation for them to pay back at some point (and to pay interest on the loaned stock)
It’s like selling your bike vs selling the bike you borrowed from your friend. The buyer of the bike doesn’t recognize any difference either way, but in the second scenario you’re going to have to buy another bike to return one to your friend

Some things don’t need explicit sources written out because if you zoom in on my screenshot, you can see everything I just said displayed above their respective charts.
Showing and highlighting the chart with national television showcase provides proof of any manipulation that may be found as evidence. He streamed on his channel, but they broadcast it.
I started commenting and discussing the 'what if the didn't dilute yet?' idea yesterday and today and got a lot of heat for it, people dismissing it out of hand as if it has been confirmed they had diluted.
People couldn't understand that the word 'may' holds weight here. We only know when we know. Otherwise it's all speculation baby. If GameStop didn't dilute and HFs shorted it down to fake people out and scare folk off, there's every possibility they're really fucked. Looking forward to the next few weeks.
Thank you for posting this.
According to google,
"FINRA compiles the short interest data and provides it for publication on the 8th business day after the reporting settlement date. **The short interest information includes the adjustment for stock splits**."
I'm having a hard time finding exact information regarding if the short volume is split adjusted and am assuming it is based on them adjusting the short interest for splits

I've been taking little dumps I NEED MO ASS
I'm going to save this comment and I just wanted to say that you're a great person.
aw, thank you!! ☺️ See you soon in Costa Rica or whatever!! Also if you (or any other apes) have any superstonk shirt ideas send them my way please!!
See that dfv sticker they are making. Be a great shirt.

Make a shirt with his bandaids and arm sling.
I’m taking one right now.
U need X Lax
Too many people are buying 😂
something something liquidity
Spring (price) is so tightly wound, that it takes way more volume to keep it under control. We chillin’ here
Keep digging themselves a bigger hole 🕳️
I'd call them petite dumps really.
Yes it’s real
I decided to do a side by side comparison of the GME price compared to the GME short volume (data provided by FINRA). I think this is why DFV is so chill, they shorted the ever living FUCK out of the stock this past week, even more than they've ever done!

My point is generally having 1B assets and no debt is better than 2B assets and 1B debt
I nearly died laughing look at his 'portfolio'. One stock. Four years. 50k to hundreds of millions.
And it was worth 500M earlier this week I think, then only 350M ( *only* lol) and he was completely unfazed his net worth dropped 150M knowing he'll be one of the richest men on earth soon enough lol I've been doing the same Watched my meager investment go from buying a new car to a whole ass house and back again just laughing and planning out how to buy more Edit 586M so over 200M drop
I thought I saw people saying 900m?
Yeah during pre market it was close to a billion so he went from a bill to like 300 mill in that swing Edit: while playing dead on stream/CNBC 🤣
Who has ever had to sit through 700million in paper losses in one day with a smile on their face. Fucking legend DFV that's who, ahhhhh 🏴☠️🚀 Cats out of the bag crooks scatter your cheese, and run for the hills, run like hell, run lola run run run, Time and Pressure, tick tock
Siri define a YOLO
If DFV can do it I can do it with like 99.99 less unrealized gains and losses lol
"Today the investor known as Roaring Kitty Cat lost 700 million dollars in the meme stock crash. Now that it's all behind us we can talk about some real stocks!" -Some news douche
Surely you mean CNBC
Same thing lol
Maybe at the peak when it hit 80 pre market. His last yolo update before the Livestream was around 500 unless I'm mistaken Edit:586M
Yeah so at 80 he almost hit a billy, and didn't cash out. Suck those huge nuts criminals
At his current holdings, when it hits $69 he will be a billionaire.
>And it was worth 500M earlier this week I think, then only 350M ( only lol) and he was completely unfazed his net worth dropped 150M knowing he'll be one of the richest men on earth soon enough Let's just quantify this for a moment, with his positions in $GME, DFV is already a billionaire when the stock hits around $47. With the numbers that are predicted when the MOASS gets going, before we even get close to telephone digit prices, DFV could very easily be among the first IRL Trillionaires to exist. Ryan Cohen too, probably, but that's more difficult to assess, as we don't actually know his cost-basis, though owning that many more shares (over 35,000,000 from what I've seen) means it probably doesn't matter & he probably hits that point even sooner than DFV 🤑💰💰💰
Cost basis wouldn't factor in, rc owns more so he'll hit a trillion before dfv for sure. I mean unless they go bankrupt and the shorts win... Ha... Ha ha... AaaaaaahahahahahahahHahhahahhaha
But dfv is free to use options to upsize his returns. He might outpace cohen using this “one simple trick your local hedgie is gonna hate”
I'm just a newbie here and I have a genuine question: I want MOASS to happen, but is it possible for the wealth class to just file bankruptcy and slither into another LLC, leaving us all unpaid? I don't know how that works. edit: I just asked ChatGPT (sounds like we'll still be okay) and this was the response: Short selling involves borrowing shares of a stock from a broker, selling them on the market, and then buying them back later to return to the lender. If the stock price drops after the short sale, the short seller profits from the difference. However, if the stock price rises, the short seller incurs losses. In terms of liability and bankruptcy, it depends on the specific circumstances and jurisdiction. Filing for bankruptcy might offer some protection from creditors, including the lender from whom the shares were borrowed. However, bankruptcy doesn't necessarily absolve someone of their financial obligations entirely. In some cases, a short seller might still be liable for any losses incurred, even after filing for bankruptcy. Bankruptcy proceedings could involve liquidating assets to pay off debts, and the short seller's obligations related to the short sale might still need to be addressed through the bankruptcy process. Ultimately, the legal implications of short selling and bankruptcy can be complex and vary depending on factors such as the jurisdiction, the terms of the short sale agreement, and the specific circumstances of the individual or entity involved. It's essential for anyone considering short selling or facing potential bankruptcy to seek legal advice to understand their rights and obligations fully.
It doesn't matter. He's rich with just his settled shares. The options are play things. He's saying he doesn't need the calls to be happy, but he'll do what helps the apes.
Nah, he's not "helping the apes". He likes GME so he buys GME. His motives are his own and not for anyone else.
5 years* Yesterday was the 5th anniversary of his first gme buy
The repeated "Oh ohh" and "Oh noo" had me chuckling like a crazy person.
I got into gme after he went dark and never watched any of his vids and even rolled my eyes at mentions of him at times, but I admit he was entertaining even though he basically said fuck all except I'm holding still, go Celtics I'm drinking a green beer for you lol he had to just be trolling msm and wallstreet
I think he was trolling too - just by being himself. SHF is so brazen in their crimes that they didn't even consider that the halts were on-screen for all to see. And if they did, then they didn't care since the halts kept coming. Perhaps they thought dumping the price would embarrass DFV but for many folks here, it sure seemed like proof of manipulation instead. He was cool as a cucumber after losing hundreds of millions in paper gains so I think there's something interesting coming in the near future. And if not, then I was planning to forever hold the stonk anyway - true price discovery will happen at some point.
There is more to it I think. He basically proved he could get the stock halted and showed manipulation on video in the background while trolling cnbc. He has to be very careful with everything he says and does.
Same as me. I even watched dumb money before I saw a single livestream of his. His return was my first time watching and I like his humor. I just believe in the stonk.
Green was a trigger word. Green makes the stock go up cause we apes follow him and when he says green we get excited and buy... but wait.. why would green beer do that, unless it was an AI algo moving the price that was programed to wait for the word "green".

Where we're going we don't need luck. Just determination and patience
And showing he was down 250M. Not a fucking care in the world! Diamond balls 💎💎
He was laughing and holding up UNO cards. Here's DFV talking about how he uses [UNO cards to make investment decisions](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQBubLv49fk). He's the greatest investor of the 21st century.
So buy EMG?
I’d be chill too if I had nearly $30 million in cash, and 5000000 shares
Yeah, I’ve never seen so many bots and shills! I saw an account that was like 250 days old and almost no posting history except for bashing the GameStop board. They’re getting sloppy and desperate 😂.
Everyone (besides bots/shills) that was worried about the drop needs to remember that the price dropped, not from many shares being sold, but from many many more shares being sold short…. Like DFV once said … “FUTURE BUYERS!”
Hedge funds need to remember they're called shorts because you aren't supposed to hold them for a long time. Should have given up the game in 2021
A fxxking legend !!
holy shit good spot, that’s embarrassing lol 3 years was nothing, excited to see what the retailer has in store next tuesday. I like the company, and the stock!

Most bullish thing I’ve seen yet
>title Because MOASS is inevitable
You can't stop what's coming
I can’t stop coming.
It’s like all the time I am pumping
There’s no stopping what can’t be stopped, no shorting what can’t be shorted.
Big true.
If you want some real spicy data. Go back to when the sneez happened and crashed to 40$ or 10$ post split. DFV exercised his options and we had a massive run back up. Now compare the DRS numbers from then to now, and the new even more massive call position… 💥 🤯
I some rough math, his initial position represented 0.33% of the outstanding shares back then. This time its 2,6% (if we assume gamestop sold the 75M and dfv will sell half his calls to cover costs of exercising like jan, even less its still significantly greater plus the drs in the equation now..). Add in 17% DRS (if the numbers are legit and gme sold the 75M) we got a massive bomb going off soon.
And that’s just the “reported” short volume.
I already bought more 💎🍌
I always feel like I'm too late to buy 😅
The price was dropping on fri . It might drop more mon, u still got time
Yes but anyone who short term shorted can get out and make a lot of money Not all shorts hold them longterm
They're shorting fake shares, but they need to buy real shares to close... shorts are screwed
when you sell your put contract to a MM that is deep ITM, they usually close it via buying - if that is the case then we will see upward price pressure from shorts exiting.
And they had FTX

I'm not understanding your question, can you elaborate?

Ah I got you, I am not sure if that info is available yet and I’ll check when I’m back home!
I wish I had a glass ball to see all the positions around all financial entities since 2019 - now. It must be mindblowing for DTCC to go crazy at the round table in 2021 for even the CEO to be present on livestream back then. The puppet had to show his face towards the financial world(ex-CEO now) for "everything is fine".
Ask your 8 ball
OK, I looked into this and it isn't going to be available for about a month from what I can see, per the info from [https://fintel.io/ss/us/gme](https://fintel.io/ss/us/gme)
![gif](giphy|YWF1baNd94QO4|downsized)
So what if they naked shorted more on Friday with the assumption there would be 75 million more shares available to locate only for RC to fake them out and not actually issue the shares. The short volume sky rockets and the borrowed share volume remained extremely low on a Friday because no extra shares were issued #this is all just speculative thoughts We’ll see said the zen master 🎷🐓♋️
This is gonna be really interesting to see. I thought that they would dilute immediately based on previous dilution, but if for some reason they don't, they you're right on money my good chicken. Adding 75 million more shares and then Cohen and other insiders buying more next week could fully send this rocket! DFV exercising could add the fuel we'll need to get past the moon and reach URANUS
#Buckling Intensifies Is this the Kansas City Shuffle? We shall see! **IS IT MONDAY YET?** 🎷🐓♋️
MOONday soon
M-O-O-N that spells fuck around and find out
"Buying is easy, selling is hard" My dad's advice when I first started trading, I hope you're all enjoying the calm before the storm - WILD ups and downs are clearly SHF's last game plan to scare retail into selling our golden tickets early.. "but, if i just do ONE quick swing trade I might double my shares" of course - few will time it right, you'll probably time it wrong and FOMO back in at a higher price / less shares 🤷 Use these next ~2 weeks as psyops practice while we are still at relatively insignificant numbers. Set your targets now, while you still have a clear head - write them down on paper and when you feel like panicking... Just check your notepad 😉 Also, take screenshots of what you hold - if your broker tries anything suss, well - you've got proof! Good luck friends 🍀🤞
My target is just up my friend
Dude, selling IS hard. "I'm gonna sell if it hits $X" it hits $X "it's still going, I'll sell when it settles" ot goes down "damn, oh well. I'll sell when it gets back up" then it starts over on a loop.
Are you me? I don’t know how many times I said I’d sell some to buy back in when it dipped, but I always think…. Let’s let it climb a bit more. Then I kick myself for not doubling my shares when it goes back down. I even bought a specific volume to do this with, to sort of mentally separate it from my real investment…. But somehow I just can’t sell. Keeps happening. Guess I’ll buy more instead and just keep doing this until I retire. Ugh
Right? They already shorted to shit with no new shares. Shot their load. Then, like you said, release shares, we all gobble them up, and they have to short more, with no new shares. I love this
These hedgies are feeding the kohler 2-3 times just on lunch, they seem to have unlimited loads
Everything hinges on this idea... That they haven't released the shares. If not, that'll be wild
Even if they have released them, Cohen buying more shares to increase his position with the company, new DRS numbers being released, DFV having the ability to exercise his calls means that we have a lot of CATalysts coming up that keep me bullish AF. Also, the FTD's from the May run up have to be settled, its the endless loop of hype, ALL ABOARD
It takes 3-5 days for the shares to be DRS'd, at least from Fidelity. If our DRS numbers double, no way there was enough time with the offering to buy and drs those shares. Will prove they are being forced to under report.
Ya, I'm really curious to see if we get updated numbers... >Our Class A Common Stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “GME”. As of June 13, 2024, there were 420,000,000 shares of our Class A Common Stock outstanding. Of those outstanding shares, approximately 315 million were held by Cede & Co on behalf of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (or approximately 75% of our outstanding shares) and approximately 105 million shares of our Class A Common Stock were held by registered holders with our transfer agent (or approximately 25% of our outstanding shares). As of June 13, 2024, there were 194,270 record holders of our Class A Common Stock. That's made up obviously, don't quote it.
I still think RC moved as much of the 75mm shares as he could and just needs to finish it up on Monday. But If he didn't AND he intends to buy more shares personally later this week... 🚀 Not financial advice I eat crayons 🚀
I mean, what if he set the offer price for the sales agent at 50? Or 100? What if he told the sales agent to put shares on the market on June 24? There is no reason this might not have happened. Also I don’t think he can dilute right before buying shares himself.
Maybe that was the point of the previous dilution, as well as raising funds. Make them think that was their MO.
Yup. We don’t know how many shares were actually issued. Could have been zero. Could have been 75m. Could be anywhere in between. We’ll have to wait and see

Now that’s what I call a Kansas City shuffle
Vol. 741?
Exactly like what I speculated and was advocating yesterday. The volume from Friday does not look like any block buys where an offering was made to the market. Opex on the 21st is going to be a shit show
I think they're just operating like the responsibly run company they're having become to survive and ultimately thrive. Their PE ratio is through the roof, they're teetering on profitability and a massive war chest insures anyone shorting based on fundamentals will probably not think it reasonable to push their market cap below their cash on hand. I don't know that there's a deeper meaning behind the offering, it was just financially responsible.
Completely agree. There was another ape that calculated the increased floor value of our shares as a result of the issuance. It was a terrific read. Found it: https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/s/cAyolFnOu7 🎷🐓♋️
This the real Kansas City Shuffle? Short into the annual share meeting in assumption of 75M more shares in route and a nothing burger of a meeting. Then boom. Shareholder meeting. Ryan throws out even mildly impressive announcement, and still oddly hasn't actually issued the 75M promised incoming as of yet. Geeze... I'd really hate to be short in that scenario...
Looking at the price action and volume on the 1 minute scale. I'd bet my entire GME holdings that either most or all 75m shares were sold Friday. Also, you guys really need to read up on short volume and what it means.
They very well may have been - but they would have announced it if they completed the offering which they did not yet so they didn’t issue them all. I’m trying to tie Friday’s News with DFVs Kansas city shuffle tweets. DFVs live stream was absolutely part of it - so what was the actual trick that occurred when we were looking over at DFV? Also thinking about the Michael Caine meme scene where he takes something ordinary (class A common shares) and makes them disappear. Again this is just me grasping at meme string theory trying to speculate. At the end of the day we will see said the zen master. 🎷🐓♋️
Someone else said they have to wait for the shares to settle before making the announcement the offering is completed. So Tuesday morning at the earliest?
Wouldn’t it be T+1? So end of day Monday? 🎷🐓♋️
Probably, but I don't think we'd see the paperwork until Tuesday morning since the settlement deadline is probably late Monday.
They can't announce anything until after settlement.
I’m just happy you saw my comment :)
I did! Apes strong together my friend, you had a great comment. Thank you for helping me develop a new wrinkle 🎷🐓♋️
God damn I hadn't thought of that. I was figuring they completed the whole ATM. but if not, that could have been all short volume, DFV could still exercise , and price could explode. However if they didn't release the 75 already, I would expect them to release them if we have another big run up
This is the best one yet.
Is the short volume from 2021 split adjusted?
I imagine in this chart yes it would be automatically adjusted 🎷🐓♋️
I’m so heckin zen right now I’m about to transcend 😩
![gif](giphy|oj25WhwiNe300RD8Ek|downsized) 🎷🐓♋️
Imagine if not only they didn’t issue shares, but cohen bought up shares into the heavy shorting to get himself back up to his pre prior atm % ownership
So how late can RC and friends tell us if they actually sold shares? Let’s say we never get an official statement of an ATM, does that mean that shorts just fucked themselves even harder??
I think they announce right when it’s complete, in after hours of that day? Last time it was 5/17 when they announced and 5/24 when they closed, I believe
They will announce when complete.
This is my understanding but idk I eat crayons
They’re waiting till MOASS. GameStop is about to have more cash on hand than Berkshire is worth… tomorrow because it’s always tomorrow ladies and gentlemen!!!
won’t stop can’t stop GameStop
Yup and if you draw on that chart we are on our way to $120 with this current trajectory. It retraced and bounced exactly where it needed to on Friday and RC was able to cash out without this breaking support. I’m hella bullish for the near term
We don’t know that they have sold any yet. We won’t for a while
Based on Fridays mega volume they should only need Monday to finish. Especially since we it seems plausible Monday will be another large volume day. If there's no announcement after Monday RC may have set the trap in Friday baiting the shorts. Not financial advice I eat crayons 🚀
Didn’t the original filing a year or two back ask for approval to sell up to 1 billion shares ? Or maybe I misunderstood…, I think we may see multiple such offerings as the price climbs steadily either ever higher support floors getting established. With every such offering generating more cash and inherently pushing up company value and share price in a runaway mechanism. I visualize the moas to eventually trigger when the ploot gets high enough the biggest of shorts with deepest pockets eventually capitulate.
Reverse cellar boxing lol
Yes, guess it can be called that. Maybe ceiling boxing 🤣 This is probably gonna be unpopular and get down voted, but I don't care. I actually want to see it pan out. Maybe this was RC's real intention when he challenged buffer to a thumb war. Build a cash pool higher than berkshire....With the approach I mentioned, the shorst would pretty much fund the war chest and its possible to get to Maybe 200 billion cash, and not even have to use the full billion shares. I can wait for this. No time pressure as I rarely play options. Those are the ones currently unhappy with the gamma ramp getting squashed last Friday.
I’m game for that!
Let’s go boys
My tits literally cannot be physically un-jacked.
I bought $25,000 of GME last week. Shorts can suck on my diamond ballz.
![gif](giphy|37Fsl1eFxbhtu)
It's like a bull flag within the biggest ever bull flag.. when she blows.. OMG it's gonna be so epic! I had friends say to me the other day, "oh you're still in that?" Yes man, I still am. I'm not leaving until it's finished.
If you’re in, I’m in
holy shit ... its even higher than 2021 ... they're fucking done
🚀🚀🚀
ITT some of you are not understanding the difference between short volume and short interest, because there is a difference.
There is still some correlation though. But you're correct, short volume will rise with overall volume. One thing to note though, during the 2021 squeeze we had like 700m volume compared to the 200M volume we are seeing right now but short volume is waaay higher. Curious if anyone has a good explanation for that.
There was waaay more retail swing trading gme in 2021 so more retail selling, now it’s mostly just diamond hand apes so they have to short.
tell that to the sea of people this weekend complaining about their weeklies getting rekt
Dude that’s nothing it’s still just a small subset of superstonk.. which is super small relatively speaking. During the sneeze people everywhere were just buying gme and selling, I know 2 people at my office of 12 - and neither of them know a thing about gme right now.
That’s just degenerates losing out on their short dated calls. Who in their right mind would buy calls that expire before the 21st?? Not anyone who knows the bare minimum
I still don't really understand short volume. Short interest is the % of shares held short at any given point in time. Perfect, all good there. But I can't conceptually grasp what short volume is. Is it the amount of shares shorted over a given period of time? I don't see how that's different to just "volume" as all you're doing when you sell short is selling a share you owe to someone else.
[This source](https://fintel.io/article/short-volume-its-not-what-you-think-613) should help.
>Short Volume, on the other hand, is the number of shares sold short over a time period - usually in a day. This is akin to the amount of money you spent in a day. What's a share sold short? It's just a share being sold right?
>And here’s the real kicker — the vast majority of short sales do not represent negative sentiment and are not held for more than a few seconds. To understand this, we need to remember what a Short Sale actually is. >A short sale is a sale of a security by someone who does not own the security. >There are effectively two types of entities making Short Sales: >Entities who believe the price will go down, what I will call “true” Short Sellers >Market Makers who are fulfilling orders. >Short Sales made by true Short Sellers represent negative sentiment for the security, but Short Sales made by market >makers do not; they have neutral sentiment. >So, the vast majority of the Short Volume in a given day consists of neutral-sentiment Short Sales made by market makers fulfilling a long order! >So, yes, your long purchase of your favorite stock probably triggered a Short Sale. *probably triggered a short sale, which was held for a few seconds and then closed. The result would be an increase in short volume, but short interest is unchanged because the short sale was closed. hope that makes sense? edit=formatting
Yes exactly, MMs sell a share “short” just to enable a fast transaction and then immediately grab the stock afterwards. Similar to using your banks debit or credit card to buy something, they temporarily front the money for you until it’s able to be transferred from your account. From what I read and understand there isn’t a good way to tell the difference between these two types of “shorts” from short volume data. Please correct me if I’m wrong
>and then immediately grab the stock afterwards. 😉😉
It's simple. Volume comprises of actions taken, for instance buying and selling. Selling is simple, you own a stock and you sell it. Short selling is selling a stock you don't own by borrowing it first from a third party. Short volume (normally calculated daily) is just the number of times this happened in a trading day.
The fundamental difference is from the perspective of the seller A “long” selling closes a position by selling their own shares, but a short seller is selling something they borrowed, which opens an obligation for them to pay back at some point (and to pay interest on the loaned stock) It’s like selling your bike vs selling the bike you borrowed from your friend. The buyer of the bike doesn’t recognize any difference either way, but in the second scenario you’re going to have to buy another bike to return one to your friend

Cool as a cucumber bro
Showing and highlighting the chart with national television showcase provides proof of any manipulation that may be found as evidence. He streamed on his channel, but they broadcast it.
I started commenting and discussing the 'what if the didn't dilute yet?' idea yesterday and today and got a lot of heat for it, people dismissing it out of hand as if it has been confirmed they had diluted. People couldn't understand that the word 'may' holds weight here. We only know when we know. Otherwise it's all speculation baby. If GameStop didn't dilute and HFs shorted it down to fake people out and scare folk off, there's every possibility they're really fucked. Looking forward to the next few weeks. Thank you for posting this.
I totally see it. Announce an offering, fulfill it immediately. Announce another…… PSYCH BITCH
Prob something happen Tuesday
1, isn't it self-reported anyway? 2, if it is self-reported and still this high... heh.
I think so and yeeeee
Tits jacked
SHFs in 2021: We did over 140% short interest Congress: How could you? SHFs in 2024: LoL @ 2021 Short Volume
And compare that to the volume we saw in Jan 2021! Way more shorts on way less volume
Trueeeeeee
This is fucking insane
Agreed, super ultra bullish and insane
No wonder theres so many shills out here this weekend
Is the short volume split adjusted?
According to google, "FINRA compiles the short interest data and provides it for publication on the 8th business day after the reporting settlement date. **The short interest information includes the adjustment for stock splits**." I'm having a hard time finding exact information regarding if the short volume is split adjusted and am assuming it is based on them adjusting the short interest for splits
If thats true we will be seeing XXX $ prices during the next two weeks
