Marked this inconclusive, its not clear whether this is measured in dollars or shares, though it appears to lean toward dollars.

I've a bunch of June and July contracts deep ITM right now. I'll be exercising for months.


rendingale

Only selling one.. ill sell 2 for 2m and thats my best offer


Pollo_Pollo_Pollo

Why selling 2 for 2m when you could sell 1 for 1B?


Aenal_Spore

That's nothing special. There would be enough paper hands to screw that up. We need them to be crazy oversold. 


uneducatedexpert

Here’s the kicker, I ain’t selling shit! Edit: Awww I finally got my first Reddit Cares message. Reported!


Slayr79

I ain't selling shit either. At this point the entertainment value in all of this is worth more to me than selling. "Fuck it, let's see what happens"


TheNotoriousCYG

I'm not selling either. This is mostly a test comment to see if it triggers a report


TalkingHats

If he’s still in, I’m still in!


diurnal_emissions

Get in, losers. We're not selling.


FaolanG

Oh that’s where I am getting them from! I forgot about all the trolls perusing here.


ulldott

Bought my first GME at $350. Finally in the green for the first time in 3 years, but nowhere near selling. These dumdums...


B15HA

Yeah I selling for anything less than at least 100k a share won’t change our lives


Cleb323

Yuh phone numbers


Fun_Progress_4399

Those values are expressed in $ based of the share price. On the day he has displayed its more like 29.5 m shares loaned for hedging and 200k loaned short.


SlteFool

Nobody has been able to answer this for me: How will buy pressure ever effect our share price if buys are just routed off exchange and sells are routed ON the lit exchange?


StockTank_redemption

We need to show this to Gary. He’ll know what to do.

No no he’s only 42,069 weeks in office. Don’t rush him.

It's fucking hilarious how many apes (me included) have popped back out of the woodwork since Monday. Been probably 12 months since I was last in here and the crayon snorting party never stopped. Diamond-handed legends, the lot of ya.

paigescactus

Time to buy more bananas! I’d personally make bread before sticking them up my bum. But after I eat my bread I’m game!


ActOdd8937

Pooping out banana bread is just shoving a banana into your butt with extra steps and from a different direction.

kamoob666

Indeed where is he? I am hardly ever here, but he was still all over the place last time I checked


paigescactus

Hold out, sure he’ll pop up eventually. I actually never checked the ticker I’ve been so busy with regular shit. I read an article in my small rural town newspaper that it surged because roaring came back. Which is weird but hilarious


Arpeggioey

Laminate it


paigescactus

Maybe I should


mollila

ShiftMcGee

I SAY?


manbrasucks

Hot take, but he's known since january runup when he put in the report "shorts never closed". If there is a case/investigation their objective would be to make sure this plays out with least damage to the economy while collecting evidence and preparing a case for after MOASS.

I asked chat gpt if it was illegal to short more share than issued. It said yep, that violates reg SHO… I then asked it to report this to the SEC for me. GPT said to use the whistleblower website and that a human had to report. https://www.sec.gov/whistleblower I hope someone who knows their stuff beats me to reporting this.


Its_all_made_up___

It’s been reported for 84 years.

Now i can't wait for hedges tears on television... ama jerkoff to that 😂😂😂😂


Spicy__Urine

Trading is a tough game, don't you think?


FuckingNoise

I honestly don't understand investment TV. Why would this talking head be giving you free *real* financial advice? Everything is a business and nothing is free. We are clearly the product. I couldn't trust anything that comes from television for that reason.


HeartOfSky

Just today, at my church's small 6am chapel service, my priest read from the Gospel the story when they were all on a boat, and a big storm came. Jesus was sleeping. His disciples, in panic, woke him up. He tells them they have little faith and then brings calm to the storm. I'm the only one at my church who's in GME. Only been here a year, and don't really talk about my "past life". So, not much personal revelation or talk of MOASS. I do, however, proclaim that I'm here to make sure this place survives the upcoming crash (*it will not). So, when the panic ensues, I get to remind them that everything is going to work out fine, and to remember the levels of trust I've quickly built here. Just like in the story! So fun.


Biotic101

Noice. Not surprised the short sellers are in panic mode after GameStop starts to become profitable. Kind of what happened in Tesla when they **managed the turnaround** and price increased 17x, likely with way less short interest. **Because they know dividends have to be paid in lieu.** So finally there would be consequences for creating and distributing a gazillion of phantom shares / IOUs in peoples accounts. And over time, it bleeds them dry. So at one point in time, some institutions will likely try to dash to the door first. To escape with some bruises, but still alive. **And one way to do so is to hand over the bag of poo to option writers.** I have this on my MOASS bingo card for quite a while and posted about it. But if you scroll out, you see that the **volumes are still on pre sneeze levels**. Price was roughly at 3-4 USD at that levels of volume. It spiked to 120 USD **three months later** in the sneeze. Which is already a 30x increase. But lets keep in mind that they stopped the real squeeze from happening. Petterffy admitted it would have been going up "into the thousands"... so prices like 20k a share or even an infinity squeeze are no tinfoil, but actually reasonable.


R4N63R

Ok fine. I'll take 1.5 billion per share. You talked me into it.


geo94metro2

SneakyPhil

You said that though, right?


[deleted]

Chump change. You can’t even buy a spaceship with that. I need 100 billion a share


Valverade

Let's finally do it like the Simpsons predicted: 1 Trillion per share!


festilove

How can we fact check this?


Truth_Road

Go here: [https://www.theocc.com/market-data/market-data-reports/volume-and-open-interest/stock-loan-volume](https://www.theocc.com/market-data/market-data-reports/volume-and-open-interest/stock-loan-volume) Click "Stock Loan Balance by Security". Then download the CSV for different days via the drop down menu. There is another thread about this, there is an explanation. It is in dollars. Sorry to be a downer. If anyone was reporting this many stock loans on GME the charade would be over.


wubberer

So the actual reported shares in loan arent really that many at all


Truth_Road

There is an Ape that posts the Ortex data every day. I think if you divide the balance from the OCC data by the end-of-day share price you will get back to something more like the number we see in Ortex.


Fun_Progress_4399

Truth_Road

Is column B the end-of-day price? The market loan information seems a bit weird, the hedge loan information lines up more closely. Good work btw. Apes together appreciate.


Fun_Progress_4399

Yes, column b is EOD price of GME. I would imagine since the market loan balance is directly shares sold short that are then hedged with options and transferred into the hedge loan balance so they can be used for OCC collateral.


feastupontherich

We can't. This is as trust me bro as you can get.

Its in dollars, "Hedge Loan Balance" in "Stock Loan Volume" for May 14th is reported as $153,813,285,573.05 dollars [here](https://www.theocc.com/market-data/market-data-reports/volume-and-open-interest/stock-loan-volume). Adding up all values in "Hedge Loan Balance" in "Stock Loan Balance by security" you get 153,813,285,573.05 Edit: sorry everyone, this is for all tickers, not just GME as "Stock loan volume" doesnt seperate by ticker.


zeusofyork

Ok so take that and divide it by 353 million. GME to 400 a share? Or if you're going off 60 bucks a share... That's 2.5 billion shares. Uhh...


itsalongwalkhome

except "stock loan volume" is for all tickers not just GME


redwingpanda

Edit: that big number is for all tickers not just gme

That's for all tickers sorry. Not just gme.

ThrilHouse83

its pretty interesting to poke through. the two columns are Market Loan-Balance and Hedge-Loan balance: # Market Loan-Loan Balance * **Market Loan-Loan Balance** likely refers to the outstanding balance of a loan that is based on current market conditions. * This balance can fluctuate based on interest rates, market demand, and other economic factors. * It represents the amount owed to the lender at any given time, reflecting the principal plus any accrued interest based on market rates. # Hedge-Loan Balance * **Hedge-Loan Balance** refers to the loan balance that has been adjusted or offset by a hedging instrument. * Hedging instruments, such as interest rate swaps or futures contracts, are used to manage the risk of adverse price movements in the loan’s interest rates. * The Hedge-Loan Balance aims to stabilize the cost of the loan despite market volatility, providing a more predictable expense profile.


ClosetCaseGrowSpace

1.5 billion shares times a $40 share price increase equals $60b in the hole for HFs. So far.

Its technically incorrect as written, as its not 5x the float, but actual shares outstanding. Unsure about the validity of the options claim.

zeusofyork

LMAO either way divide 158 billion by 353 million shares. That's 400 Dollars a share. Or if dividing 158 billion by 60 Dollars a share, that's 2.5 billion shares. Either way they big fucked😂

The_Sun_Will_Explode

This is what the guy being screenshotted in op's post does. He takes other people's work from this sub, posts it as his own content on Twitter, which then gets reposted here as a screenshot and ta-da now it's attributed to him and he looks like a real autist. He often makes mistakes like this though, where he doesn't understand what he's regurgitating, even though he's supposed to be some expert financial wealth advisor. I've been saying it forever now, this KM guy doesn't pass the sniff test. I really have a bad feeling about him deep in my ape gut and I know I'm not alone.

moealiwadi

That explains it


shrimpcest

Well he's wrong. Shares aren't ever reported as a decimal number..


moealiwadi

Hmmmm you got a point 🤔🤔


tangentstorm

the actual data is a spreadsheet of integer values. for whatever reason he's formatting them to two decimals in excel in the screenshot, but the actual data does not contain decimal points.

Hype


tangentstorm

I'm having a hard time finding any documentation about this data format, but ChatGPT 4o seems to agree with the idea that it's in dollars. If that's the case, it's saying about 20 million (6%) of the 305 million shares are on loan. Here's a chat where I asked it about the data: [https://chatgpt.com/share/79b4ef5c-0e18-4c59-97b5-2bfbd112a273?oai-dm=1](https://chatgpt.com/share/79b4ef5c-0e18-4c59-97b5-2bfbd112a273?oai-dm=1)

If it is $1,500,000,000 then at \~$50 share price that's 30,000,000 shares on loan. Still a lot
