    imagine if they made an offering anywhere near these prices and wiped out all debt and still had plenty left over to completely reinvent the company...

  2. I hope some of the WS Bets cashed out half, $20 million or $30 million off $100,000 was a lotto pick.

  3. I can’t believe Cohen has not sold covered calls locking in billions. He’s a genius, hope he did!

  4. Just saying I did with CRSR selling the $40s at $11+. I bought some at $36 after their shelf, had to protect that blessing.

    Those fund managers must be newbies or amateurs doing counter-trend trading.

    They probably failed to do day trading.
    They probably failed to stare at the computer screens for many many hours.

    Even a blind person will know GME is an uptrend.

    Suspended trading. Now 237.
    And Falling. No one can buy, only sell on most platforms. Robinhood made a gigantic amount of their buying volume now nothing.

    The fun is over.
