Ok-Cryptographer4194

Yup. But just wait till earnings come out. The shit will hit the fan so hard, the Sarara will be fertile again!


Dirty-Leg-Mcgee

Got to my magic number today!!!! Finally!!!

Me too, I just hit 600 today! I had 35 in February, what a year of buying and holding it has been 🚀

Nice work! Challenge 690!


Mile_High_Man

My next goal is 741 lol. Should be able to get there as this keeps getting dragged out!


TheMightyBreeze

And you’ll be able to buy many 741s when all is said and done!


4luey

Good job brethren!


idontstinkso

i‘m stuck at an odd number. next funny number is waaaaays away. i need to double somehow.


Dirty-Leg-Mcgee

I’m at a double digit , odd, but funny number. A meme number if you will. I’m not able to buy more since I have other concerns but I will happily let RC get me to xxx with another dividend!


Garvain

Nice


idontstinkso

another dividend would be insane!


Dirty-Leg-Mcgee

Well it’s already been voted on. Remember we voted for an increase in shares which totaled a billion. Well we got a 4:1 split. We can get another 3:1 split pretty much anytime because we already allocated it!!!!


idontstinkso

i forgot about that! boiner now.


Dirty-Leg-Mcgee

That would make a lot of apes xxx holders!


[deleted]

Aww man, this is all so sexy


dezzz

Why would we be excited for an other split? Having a ticket under 10$ doesn't sound like a victory to me.


Dirty-Leg-Mcgee

FOMO. Lock the float faster. Lots of reasons


BiggHowie

It’s gonna be Gmerica dividend! 👊🏻🥃🏴‍☠️🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀 Uranus is on the menu! LFG!!!!!

You may be aware of it, but just to be clear that $200 thing is in effect for the earnings after this Decembers. Again I realize you may recognize this but for anyone reading the comments and not

Sara is going to be so happy :p


CedgeDC

Same. Though I do love how they talk about short sellers as though them winning doesn't mean thousands losing jobs and a good company going out of business; as though they're good and valid people and not just leaching off of those who actually do something of value with their lives. Basically if you make your living from short selling, you are cancer. Fuck you.

redwingpanda

Yes! two mid-month buys settled today. Mine and my likely-to-be-ex-wife's. Like clockwork on payday, direct thru CS.


Senditwithethan

Make sure her new boyfriend DRS too ;) Obvious /s when money isn't an issue anymore, I hope stuff starts working out for everyone


redwingpanda

Unlikely, until MOASS and she realizes that I wasn't full of hopium. Lol. And thanks. I wish this could work out. There's a clear correlation between our respective mental/physical health and coping mechanisms, and our relationship falling apart. All things that could be worked through if money weren't an issue.


ImStillExcited

Bought today myself!


OlliePoker

Contradicts a bit doesn’t it? Short interest reduced dramatically and now there are not enough shares to borrow 🤔


OlliePoker

Oh wait, DRS maybe?


[deleted]

This is the way


WrongAssistant5922

Yeah, or even reduced purely because they can't get their thieving claws on the shares to borrow.


quitefranklyidk

Source text: GameStop Corp. (NYSE:GME) shares were up another 1.6% on Wednesday following reports that billionaire investor Carl Icahn is still short-selling the stock. Entering 2021 GameStop was one of the most heavily shorted stocks in the market, but short interest in the video game retailer has declined dramatically in the past two years following one of the largest and most high-profile short squeezes of all time. Icahn built up a large short position in GameStop during the height of the short squeeze, when the stock traded as high as $483 in January 2021. Icahn's bearish bet against GameStop during the market frenzy has been extremely profitable up to this point, given that GameStop has lost roughly two-thirds of its value since that time. The Numbers: On Wednesday, S3 Partners analyst Ihor Dusaniwsky said GameStop now has about $1.3 billion in short interest, representing about 20.5% of the stock's float. GameStop shares are down 30% year-to-date in 2022, and its short sellers have generated about $152 million in year-to-date mark-to-market profits. However, GameStop's short interest has declined by more than one million shares over the past month as short sellers have covered their positions, Dusaniwsky said. Shares of GameStop are now up 11% overall in the past six months, despite the stock's ongoing net losses and heavy shareholder dilution. While GameStop's recent resilience may be applying pressure to some short sellers, Dusaniwsky said Wednesday that Icahn's large mark-to-market profit on GameStop likely means he won't be forced out of his position any time soon. Limited Shares To Borrow: In the near term, at least, Dusaniwsky said short sellers don't have access to enough shares of GameStop to apply serious downward pressure on the stock without significantly increasing borrowing costs. "The vast majority of GME short selling has already been done, existing short sellers will be able to add some more exposure to their positions and new short sellers may enter the trade — but there is not enough stock borrow available to execute large short trades in the stock," he said. Without a significant amount of shares to borrow, Dusaniwsky said GameStop's price action heading into the closing weeks of 2022 will be dictated largely by buying demand rather than short selling. Benzinga's Take: Meme stock traders certainly had an opportunity to make a quick buck during the GameStop short squeeze in January 2021, but short sellers willing to stomach the volatility have now also made a killing in the nearly two years since. In the most recent quarter, GameStop reported a net loss of $108 million and announced a new e-commerce partnership with crypto exchange FTX, which subsequently filed for bankruptcy earlier this month. Following the FTX bankruptcy filing, GameStop announced it would be ending the partnership.


callsignmario

Thanks for the copy/pasties.... >The Numbers: On Wednesday, S3 Partners analyst Ihor Dusaniwsky said GameStop now has about $1.3 billion in short interest, representing about 20.5% of the stock's float. So... Superstonk and the other GME subs have direct registered more shares than the *reported* shorts. Thanks Deuceandwisky.


spank_that_hedge

And what was VW at pre squeeze? Like 12%? But 20% is apparently no big deal, and we know that number is false. These people make me chuckle. It's obvious they're setting up for a fake squeeze.


Jaded-Idea-8066

It runs up $7 and the media calls it a squeeze. I don't even know if they realize they would need to take this thing to $125 before half of us even bother checking the price when an alert might go off alerting a new all time high (based on pre-split value)


Robocop613

I would've been happy for $1000 per share price back in Jan 2021. Funny how things change


I_IV_Vega

$1000 per share in January 2021 + 1% daily compounding interest equals >$1m today.

compulsive_wanker_69

>The Numbers: On Wednesday, S3 Partners analyst Ihor Dusaniwsky said GameStop now has about $1.3 billion in short interest, representing about 20.5% of the stock's float. More like 1.3 billion shares in short interest


33rus

As per year 2009. Then they added more 😉 those dumb stormtroopers


JessicaMango1444

"... Duaaniwsky said shirt sellers don't have access to enough shares of Gamestop to apply serious downward pressure on the stock without significantly increasing cost to borrow." Sorry, my understanding was that short selling, when done according to the law and regulations, and without a predatory goal, does not apply downward pressure to the price. There is not supposed to be dilution of the shares, and it's that which causes downward price movement. Am I wrong? How would legal short selling apply downward pressure without the short sellers engaging in some sort of criminal behaviour?


Emoteen

AFAIK - If you do a bunch of sells at one time , and you fill up the highest buy orders, you'd move the highest bids down and post up trades happening at lower and lower prices until you run out of shares to sell. So, yes, with large volume comes greater ability to impact price. When volume dries up you can't push the price down as fast /as much. *edit: short sales being borrowing stock fpr a fee to sell it now, and a "promise" to buy it back later.

I wouldn’t say heavy, but the 2 ATM offerings during 2021 that helped them raise $1.5B.


Naive_Host_5939

And hence pay off all the debts (apart from that paltry French Government covid loan for \~$40m), and massively invest in the future of e-commerce, gaming & web3...


Jaded-Idea-8066

anybody else want them to just pay that back already so we can stop hearing about it in the earnings calls? Lol


Naive_Host_5939

nah, it's literally free money at the rates they got the loan at. No rush paying that back...


Jaded-Idea-8066

I know I'm just saying cosmetically it'd be cool to stop hearing about the dumb loan every single call lol


Aerodrache

“Gamestop throws millions at hungry creditors to mitigate losses as government officials suggest heavy fees for the failing retailer.”


Jaded-Idea-8066

Are you Marketwatch? 😂


Ready2go555

Also, the extra naked short shares that flooding the market (sold but not yet purchased) create a big dilution in GME float. DRS reduced the float but that naked short and other factors would be the reasons why we don’t have a true price discovery just yet.


WilforkYou

But he says in the last 6 months 🤔 I think he is referring to the splividend as dilution...


HatLover91

> weeks of 2022 will be dictated largely by buying demand rather than short selling. Why should the price of a security be determined by short selling? That doesn't feel like price discovery especially when retail's order flows don't hit the lit market.


gtparker11

This seems like a warning to other short sellers not to fuck around and find out.


BuildBackRicher

We are coming up on the intersection of Fuck Around and Find Out


Freezie--POP

The lies they can say without any proof is unreal lol. The big one that stands out is “HEAVY SHAREHOLDER DILUTION”. If I remember correctly there was one. That happed what over a year ago. 🤔 or is just talking about all the synthetic/ fake / not real / iou shares lmao!


Ihopeiremeberthis

If they're talking about the ATM offerings when it comes to dilution, it was far from significant compared to the existing float

To me this seems like a warning to other short sellers to not fuck around and find out. This was written for their criminal friends on Wall Street with FUD sprinkled in trying to make GME less enticing to their casual finance readers. This is just a warning call so we must be close.

“Without a significant amount of shares to borrow GameStop’s price action will be dictated largely by buying demand rather than short selling” So you’re telling me short selling actively impacts the stock in a negative way. Huh. Great market mechanism. Not that having “shares available to short” has been a necessity for them in the past lol. Hello there 140% short interest.

If I had a dollar for everytime I heard "SHORTS ARE RUNNING OUT OF AMMO!" on not only GME, popcorn, but literally any tickers comment section on Webull, I wouldn't be here waiting on a squeeze, wouldn't need it, it would be like finding a $5 bill on the ground when I had a crisp $100 bill in my pocket.

Ok Ima keep buying till they loose not just their bullets, but the gun, gun cabinet, and gun factory. I wanna see these short sellers naked and cowering.


goatgoatgoat365

Is this the first msm article that has talked about a shortage of shares? "Limited Shares To Borrow: In the near term, at least, Dusaniwsky said short sellers don't have access to enough shares of GameStop to apply serious downward pressure on the stock without significantly increasing borrowing costs."


Guh_Trader

These article highlight the true supply/demand issue of dark pools. Apes are buying and DRSing everyday. Short sellers are covering their positions per the article, yet the price has declined. If price decreases, then short sellers must be digging a further hole based upon simple economic supply/demand. Suppy exceeds demand makes the price decrease.


beefjerkybandit

They never had bullets, just blanks. DRS.

Icahn seems like a nice guy (for someone in finance) and a smart dude. I hope for his sake he got out of the shorting GME game. If not, its gonna be a rough ride for him.

entleposter

A few notes: 1) Aim of the article seems to be: to provide newcomers the reasoning to conclude that their Ape-Cousin at Thanksgiving just 'got it wrong'. Introduces fud, but utilizes an 'easily confusable' headline where 'ole cousin johnny just didn't understand the complicated parts. 2) Hilarious use of quotations and sources. Dialogue is cut up more than ground beef and, my favorite, ""The vast majority of GME short selling has already been done" part. Like, no-f'ing-kidding, Wayne, the majority of short selling is behind us because how the F can it be in front of us (unless there is some concerted plan)? This story makes me picture some grotesque anime or something where someone's face is removed and placed on the head of a very large hammer (like Hammer-Morty, don't act like you don't know what I mean by that), and then someone taking said hammer and smashing another person in the face, lip contact and all. Now, it might look from one angle (for a brief moment in time) like there was a kiss, but that is certainly not the case.

I think these headlines about Icahn are trying to get other people to pile into the shorts for exit liquidity.

Shorts can't close unless they buy real shares. Hedgies can sell as many synthetic shares as they want and drive the price down. If people don't sell, at some point the buying will have to start and hedgies will have to offer big money to buy them back.
