Hey crypto retards. You want almost guaranteed 1000%+ gains with only -50% downside at the worst case scenario?
You have only tonight to read up on what the fuck a short squeeze is. There's an opportunity right now for a MASSIVE short squeeze and the more retards jump in to join the fun to get 1000%+ returns, the more likely the chance is for it to trigger.

Do your DD right fucking now into Gamestop stocks. People more retarded than YOU have been shorting this for the last 7 years, and after Gamestop did buybacks in 2019 reducing the amount of outstanding shares available, they kept shorting it like an idiot until the short % interest of the float is over fucking 100%. I'm not kidding, the short % is that high. The moment it starts cascading up with a positive catalyst, it'll end up like KODAK pic related.

if you're too lazy to do your own DD then just read the Gamestop shill on seekingalpha.
>https://seekingalpha.com/article/4372597-gamestop-short-squeeze-part-iii-atop-caldera

I'm shilling this crap because I want the short squeeze to happen earlier without having to rely on uncertain positive catalysts of Q2 and the double console release.
Fundamentals don't fucking matter for a short squeeze so don't even try to argue that gamestop is a shitty company because we all know. All that matters is that gamestop is not going bankrupt within 3 years because their balance sheet is actually ok especially after the CAREs act.

get to it you crypto retards.

hey, the math works out doesn't it? We're basically just robbing the retard short sellers blind. And the funniest shit is that the more people jump in, the higher the price goes, and shorts have to start covering their shorts, price goes up more, and so on.

>https://moxreports.com/kbio-infinity-squeeze/

the start of a new console cycle soon, Gamestop after corona just started a gaming boon, and the fact that Ryan Cohen just bought almost 10% of Gamestop shares last week.
Borrowing rate fees have been increasing very fast every day too (no more shares left to short) so Q2 doesn't even need to do well, price just needs to go sideways and the pressure is on the shorts to cover.

it's so fucking easy. I'm 100% GME, but not options though since the shares are cheap as fuck already and i cant say for sure the squeeze will happen before October. Unless you want to pay the premium for 2021 calls.

those were people joining in on the Ryan Cohen hype and not short sellers covering. Short interest is still high as fuck. Shit like Kodak happened with much less short %. Another example like APRN happened with less short % too. This might only be the 2nd time in history that a stock has been shorted around 100%.
if you're too pussy to take a relatively low risk and high reward gamble, then you better fucking tell me you're not in crypto.

We're not the only ones figuring out what's going on with Gamestop. This was green on fucking Thursday when the market was taking a huge dump. Other people are seeing that the short interest is still high and primed for an anal ravaging. Whales don't want to be too blatant about it since im pretty sure market manipulation is illegal.

>>22309623
I've noticed that it's usually better to sell late than too early, you'll have at least a week after the peak to still cash out at a massive upside. I'm basing this from looking at the patterns of other short squeezes. When volume starts slowing down (seems to be around day 3 but who knows), that seems to be the peak. APRN pic related, and people who bought before the squeeze had a whole month to exit at a stable ~$12.

i expect you all to report back Wednesday afterhours (conference call is at 5PM), good or bad news. We either win or cry together.
don't fucking use leverage to buy GME or don't use options if you're not confident on expiry because who the fuck can tell if the squeeze happens this week or closer to PS5/Xbox X release.

>>22309623
and lemme tell you i have no idea how to time the peak either but eh the first hurdle is getting the squeeze to start.
Like will this even follow a similar pattern as Kodak or APRN when the short % is much fucking higher?
What I'm going to do is set stop losses in maybe five chunks (some following more closely and greedily) after the first day of the squeeze and I'll adjust throughout the day.

I'm hoping for a good catalyst with Q2 earnings. Wednesday 5PM.
If that doesn't work out the next catalysts are the double console release, Q3 earnings, and Q4 earnings at the latest.

frankly if you do your DD on gamestop it's actually not a bad company to long since they're still a company that's reported 6 billion in revenue this year so far and the fact that it's worth only 500 million market cap because of how heavily shorted it was

if you wanna talk fundamentals then corona was a good thing for Gamestop.
It's allowed them to de-densify their stores easier since they've been overextended since last decade.
Their balance sheet is fine and they have more cash than debt right now. They finally sold their stupid corporate jet this year. CARES act will have them recovered a fuck ton of money in paid taxes because it will let them take carry over losses from 2018-2020 *FIVE YEARS* back to their golden age times.
A new console cycle means more than more hardware sales. New hardware isn't where gamestop gets their money, it's the customer returning for all the other shit like games and accessories. Don't forget the fact that PS5 and XboxX are backwards compatible this time too, and aren't underpowered pieces of shit that are outperformed by budget PCs at the same price (you try building a budget PC that matches its specs) since they're being sold at a loss. Idiot console-only players don't care that they can't pirate games.

If the short squeeze doesn't work out, they're still worth more than $7 especially now that you have Ryan Cohen in the mix, the dude who set up a large scale fulfillment center for his pet food ecommerce from scratch with Amazon in the game.

i'm only in it for the short squeeze though, but the fundamentals on Gamestop assures me that my downside isn't anything crazy like Gamestop going bankruptcy this year or the next.

not PE ratio since they're not making a profit right now due to corona, and in 2019, it was a bad year since last console cycle was especially long and people were less eager to buy vidya shit at the end of a console cycle (Switch saved their ass a bit though).

But yes their price-to-sales ratio is 0.1 right now, so if they were valued like bestbuy, gamestop would be "fairly" valued at $50. That's a value trap though and you don't do that shit (it's like buyng Intel because it's PE ratio is soo "low" when their fundamentals are shit), but that changes thanks to Ryan Cohen potentially helping turn Gamestop around as an activist or something more involved.

This guy has some of the nicest DD out there right now, and his first article (which unfortunately is paywalled now) was before the initial +40% spike from Ryan Cohen joining in the fun. That said, this was a situation that was building up for more than a year, it was gonna happen eventually but there was no point holding GME while the rest of the market is mooning until momentum becomes more certain (which is now thanks to Ryan Cohen).

short sellers are also doing a coinflip hoping Q2 will be shit so they can cover at breakeven or whatever.
