Oh yeah, the entire market is going to take a dump. Hell, it already started two months ago. I think it is a part of what is taking so long with the squeeze; they're trying to manage it so that it doesn't shock the markets all at once.
#YourMoveSec is trending on Twitter. This is going to go from bad to worse if many of the stockholders of the naked-shorted stocks get so fed up with the system that after the squeezes they give the stock market a big middle finger and yank there money out completely afterwards.

So all their money goes out. And many institutional investors forced to liquidate.

At some point I think the safest thing is going to temporarily delist a number of stocks and just settle it right now. There is still more fuel being put on these rockets on a daily basis. There are precedents for doing this.
 
This is freakin crazy. (Click the link in the tweet, otherwise it’s paywalled).

Yeah, they have no other way to earn morning. They might pull for a bit but it will not be long term. They made the bed with the squeezes may they lay in them. #thoughts&prayers
 
Seems to be a war at GME $180 and AMC $10.

Been the same sad story every Friday. It's all a battle based on putting options in the money our out, and the so-called Market Makers pretty much have firm control of the price action.

Yep. There is something they don’t like at that number.

AMC did it. Was a furious battle. What a final minute. I was watching 10.00 and 9.99 going back and forth into the final seconds.

Ended at 10.03.

I am new to the option game, and I have a question that I hope someone could answer. If it is a virtual certainty that AMC is going to squeeze at some point in the next several months, what would be the downfall of shaving off a few shares to instead load up on January 2023 $40 call options, which are currently trading at about $2 a pop?

Same for AMC, with that one being somewhere in the $13 to $15 range.

My working theory is that back in late January, after the buy halt fiasco played out, that that's about the range that they started naked shorting this thing into oblivion, so it is important to them to be able to keep those naked shorts in the green at all costs.

The maximum downfall of any option is losing the price of the position.

The premise of the play would be that you think there's a reasonable chance that AMC is a >$40 stock in January 2023. It's never been a $40 stock and was hovering around $15 between 2017 and 2019. I don't know AMC's specific fundamentals but I understand the company to have large debt (though good management would be using this gift of short squeeze price action to restructure its debt) and in a sector with huge question marks about American consumer behavior post-pandemic.
 
You still holding XSD? The 1 and 3 year returns are really solid. Still like this as a core holding.

I think so. I can't get access to my binance account. And I can't transition to binance.us because it's also banned in Louisiana. My next step is to set up a vpn and give it a go.

I gave up on Binance.. i opened an account with them last year, then tried several times to get approval to buy crypto, but they make it extremely complicated.. They make you upload utility bills and all sorts of stuff.. Everything i tried, they would tell me that the bill was too old (it was from the prior month) or there was some other arcane issue.. the most recent problem i had is that they ask you to upload a copy of your driver license , but since my home address has changed since i got my DL renewed a couple yrs ago, they wont accept it.. i am not about to go and get a new DL just to trade on Binance.. i appreciate them being concerned with security, but they are simply over-the-top.. i will stick with Coinbase.

250,000 shares of GME shorted right after 10:45 am. Citadel is losing their mind.

FYI, with Citadel their number 1 long position is Facebook. When the hen comes home to roast they might needs those assets.
