So question - why would SEC looking into trading activity at GME/AMC cause prices to fall?







I thought the premise here wanted that and that regulatory review would expose the naked shorting, potentially leading to closing of short positions either in anticipation of regulators or due to actual regulator activity.

It isn't causing prices to fall. The prices are "falling," because the activity is continuing. They're still borrowing and shorting. When you study the Level 2 data, live feed, you can clearly see that most of the sell activity is dark pool based, in fact, yesterday 63% of the activity on the stock was dark pool.

The sales inflow has been greater than the outflow every day now for weeks. The price action currently is all artificial.

Again though, I would not exactly say prices are falling after a 500% run-up ends up with a consolidation between 400% and 450% the following week. It's all relative.

When in doubt, zoom out....does this still look like the price is falling now?

EDIT: I should also point out on that graph, that the RSI indicator in the middle there, based on the known short interest, is showing that we are WAY oversold as of yesterday's after hours close right now. It's all artificial action at the moment.

Thanks, all good info. I didn’t mean prices falling in the zoom out, I just meant price action that seemed to follow the SEC comment. But I’m following your analysis, thanks.

Yeah I'll be honest...between the SEC announcement and the share count info we received yesterday, I thought we'd see a decent jolt in after hours yesterday or pre-market today.

After speaking with a friend that is a bit more experienced in the stock market than I am, though this is somewhat unprecedented, he believes it will take a little while for this news to marinate. Could be something we see results from over the course of a full session or two as the news spreads and gets digested by the masses.

Crazy situation all around. Encouraging start thus far though, seeing that we bounced off of the $45-$46 and didn't fall below that level of support (at least for the moment).
 
As an elementary matter, structural inflation usually triggers rate increases which will likely compress multiples in this stock market that has been riding low rates for over a decade.

 
I think GameStop is actively selling shares into the market now. Matt Furlong is the new CEO. Outside of his Amazon experience I can find anything. Not even a YouTube video of him speaking.
 
I think most of the socially known gorrilas predicted these dips starting on Thursday and really dipping on Friday. With so much vested, they have studied this in their sleep.

Cohen, though did toss an Easter egg with his closing statement "buckle up".

Definitely have to expect massive dips at this stage, and they will only get worse. It's been their game for years now. Thankfully, most people have learned that the best way to combat them is to simply hold and not give them what they want (for you to sell).

I will admit that I did not foresee us breaking through that $45 support level today, but that was clearly an unnatural set of red candles from a chart standpoint and it appears things are heading back up now. I thought if we got under $42 today, we'd likely go as low as $37-39, which was where we landed briefly after the run to $70, but we did not.

At the end of the day though, as indicated, this is all psychological games at this point, with some fairly significant catalysts coming over the next 5 to 8 trading sessions, including the approval of DTCC-2021-002/005? on 06/21, which will give the SEC/DTCC the authority to force margin calls on these over-leveraged institutions.

EDIT: Looks like we actually DID go to $39.71 briefly. I must've missed that while I was away for a little while.
 
This is definitely desperation time for these guys. Gotta expect a massive dip before the rip at this stage.

I know its different circumstances but I did read that the Volkswagen short squeeze was 1 week of red than the squeeze. I know nothing of those dynamics though, Ive read that Porsche steered that squeeze and other say different, could be FUD or could be truth, everyone has an agenda right now. Though we all know WS is corrupt!
 
A day early no less!
I have to admit, I didnt know why you posted that and it just dawned on me today is friggin Thursday, I have been one day ahead of myself all week. It took me typing a weekly status meeting agenda moments ago to realize the day and you pointed it out to me in so many words :oops:.

That is definitely correct. Huge dip before it rocketed...I keep a screenshot of this on my desktop just to remind myself every once in awhile.

There is a massive bubble about to get popped. Way too much margin lending has occurred in the past year, due to short-sighted relaxing of SLR policies that have just gone offline. Too much of it was used.

It would be like giving someone $10 million to go gamble at the casino, and they absolutely MUST pay back all $10 million. But instead of being conservative and only gambling with say, $500k to $1m, you gamble with $9 million of it all at once, and lost on too many bets, so now you're in deep trouble.
