    kinda the point tho. they were short selling the stock hard because of that and thought no one would catch on. and when it backfired, instead of taking the loss, they doubled down and shorted it again today.

    You're looking at lunatics vs the hedge funds :emoji_laughing:

    Gamestop had high percentage of shorted shares (bets that the stock will fall). WallStreetBets got a hold of it and basically memed it. Now, it's basically a giant game of chicken.

    Well, people's attention span is going to die eventually but trying to predict crazy is practically impossible.
    Though, we are looking into various picks trying to anticipate the next wild ride :emoji_wink:

    @ChrisTurk I'm not telling you my net worth :emoji_stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:
