How is it possible that the short sellers are "not giving up" on the 29th, if they closed their position on the 27th???

Is this next level autism by CNBC? What are they even thinking?

Journalism is essentially humanistic since only secular humanists have created the job of journalist and they love the idea of a journalist as the gatekeeper of secular humanism by denouncing some Human rights violations, political scandals and enlightening the plebs, because journalists like any coackroach humanist cling to their idea that they are the gatekeepers of the truths.

All the journalists 100 years ago were already self righteous humanist assholes addicted to their brain poops.
Journalism has always been pathetic, full of bourgeois sex, drug and money addicts

I think the critical information here is that despite Melvin purportedly closing out its short position in gamestop, there is still an astronomical amount of short positions on GME remaining. This probably indicates that Melvin was not the only firm short selling gamestop. Which makes sense, since all these fucks share ideas all the time behind closed doors. Gamestop is easy pickings like other declining businesses a la Sears, Blockbuster, etc.

1) journos write whatever the fuck their editors want them to write. also they have zero say on what the headline will be
2) melvin is just one of many short sellers

That said, melvin didn't exit and we're going to fucking pluto.

>new short sellers
this worries me greatly, because it's game of chicken where one side is built on meme hype and the other side has billions of dollars in investment from patient clients in no rush to see an inevitable profit. People kept saying friday being the VW-tier squeeze, then they corrected to monday, but it may actually last for WEEKS, when the fuck is this going to end if short sellers simply continue closing at a loss and then open up new positions in preparation for the inevitable? Not worth the fucking hype, I'm worried for those who invested more than they could afford to lose.

Media is hot garbage propaganda, and it is amazing that normies keep falling for it.
However, both of the claims in your pic can be true, if it is the case that Melvin has closed their short position (doubt), but that other hedgies haven't.
Melvin was a wonderchild for a few years before this, and somewhat exclusive. This meant a bunch of no-name hedgies decided to just copy everything Melvin does. It may be the case that these copycats have not closed their own shorts.
Further, it may be the case that the low shorts have been closed, but replaced by high shorts in the $300+ range.

You can set up simple spreads that profit on crabbing.

Yes, it is a high-stakes game of chicken. But retail just needs to hold, buy, eat tendies and jack off, whereas hedgies are hemorrhaging absolutely insane amounts of interest - 30-50%, according to S3.

>Not worth the fucking hype
Depends. Be smart about it. Some believe that the wider market drops are due to hedgies liquidating to cover their historical fuck-up with GameStop. They might end up winning on that particular stock, but in the interim, you can choose to be a bull on all their legit longs that are going down.

>I'm worried for those who invested more than they could afford to lose.
Yeah, one always should be. This was always a gamble. If you're not comfortable putting the same amount on red and letting it roll, you shouldn't do it. Hype men should be better at making that clear for all the schmucks who think they've caught a failsafe lottery ticket.

It is though. There are reasons for an asset to pump or dump. Slot machine are mostly random with a tendency for losses for its owner keep fat gains while giving away scraps to keep up the hopes of winning.

I haven't believe a word of their lies since the 24/7 hit pieces they did on Michael Jackson back in the 90s. Of course I was too young to quite understand the full gravity of the situation but I still knew something wasn't quite right about it.
