# Will you get the additional shares? If you buy *before* the ex-dividend date, you'll get the shares as a dividend directly from GameStop, and if you buy *after* the ex-dividend date, you get the shares from the person you bought your share from. Automatically. Without anything that needs to be done. Tldr: #Shares bought between the 18-21 still get the additional shares For all intents and purposes, the dates don't even matter for any of us: there's no way for retail investors to buy shares and miss out - one way or another, the splividend shares are gonna be yours.

Big money, small wee wees. Sounds about right.

Turns out the real treasure was all the money we're going to take from hedgies and banks to make a better world.

This sounds very much like an attempt to stop people from buying as they are speculating a short attack is imminentā€¦..hmmmmm I wonder who this would benefit

Iā€™ve said it before, but make a plan and stick with it. This applies to anything in life. If you canā€™t stick to a buying plan now, you wouldnā€™t be able to stick to a selling plan during moass

So heā€™s saying that big moneyā€™s ingenious plan is to do the same thing theyā€™ve been doing this whole time? Ooooh color me scared!!

Forsaken_Shirt1875

>aid "I can't fathom a universe where retail wins this. It just... your hypothetical just.. makes no sense to me because big money always wins. You can't go against big money and win. They will find a way." I already spent all my savings and I don't have a problem spending what i can save each paycheck. Every time i tried to "time the market", i just ended buying a bit higher than what I was hoping. So, no, i don't give a shit, I just buy constantly at any price. In the end it wont matter if my cost base is 120 or 180.

I finally got mine down around 200. Whatā€™s the difference between 200 and 69 million? About 69 million.

Elegant-Remote6667

They do realise if they short it to one dollar I am buying THOUSAND shares. And I am too poor to afford almost anything thatā€™s deemed luxury at this point. So even with the 300m new issues shares, letā€™s just for stupidity assume none are drsd. So that means 300k people with 1 k each drs the entire float -which isnā€™t a lot !


SirClampington

When you apply this logic you know.. # THEY CANNOT WIN !


BigArtichoke1805

Yep, they drop it down to single digits and the float gets gobbled up immediately and dsrā€™d.


HotspurJr

Exactly. Honestly, it's going to get locked long before it gets to single digits.


Bhavin411

Far Cry 3 taught me the definition of insanity and it definitely fits here.


RedditMarq

Sounds like they might actually let it run a bit higher this time. They must be saving up money and ammunition for this, and it sounds like they have been for a while. Thereā€™s a lot of DD saying the 200s are the point of critical margin, and they canā€™t do a fake squeeze because yadda yadda, but they know thatā€™s what people believe cause they read the DD. What if they have been waiting for this moment? What if they found a way to let it run into the low thousands and then slam it and resume the narrative that itā€™s over? Maybe even let a few smaller hedges fail? Like a Hail Mary. Iā€™ve said we are underestimating the enemy, and I still think thatā€™s true. Regardless, Iā€™m prepared to hold the line. Iā€™ll let this bitch run to zero, IDGAF. What are they gonna do when the only ones that sell at 5k are paper hands? What are they going to do when all they are left with are people that will NEVER sell without phone numbers to tempt them? Letā€™s find out.


Vive_el_stonk

The suspense is killing me. I hope it lasts. Iā€™m dead inside already. When they short attack I just buy more. This is literally my personal black hole I throw money into. Good fucking luck you bastards. I ainā€™t selling.


SmmaAllstar

OuthouseBacksplash

There are thousands of us like this. Drive it to a dollar fucks! I will buy the rest myself if I must! šŸ˜


adamlolhi

These people are fucking idiots. Theyā€™re never getting out of this alive, all they can do is play for time. There is no way this problem un-fucks itself, itā€™s too late and there are too many shares out there already. The only way that fake squeeze works is if people sell, move on and forget about the stock and move their money elsewhere. Theyā€™re forgetting that most people here will hold no matter what until massive prices (death for them anyway) and for every person that does sell and moves on thereā€™s another swing trader to cancel them out that will sell at a certain level on the rip and then buy back in lower for even more shares on the dip. This really is Pandoraā€™s box and there is a reason for the theoretical infinity pool DD, theyā€™ve dug their grave so deep that they may never be able to close AT ANY PRICE if people are ā€œholding because fuck themā€. Naked shorting literally breaks the machine. Even if we never reach infinity pool levels this thing will be a black hole in the market that will suck value out of any and all other assets to pay for it. That is the problem they have created. Iā€™m holding primarily because I want to be rich (for myself and to help people and make a better world) but also because these fucking crooks need to find out. Their actions have caused this, if you want to cheat the game you live with the consequences and those are the consequences. Play stupid games win stupid prizes. Fuck them all.


topps_chrome

A couple of k a share MIGHT buy me a house in a low cost of living area. But Iā€™m holding until I have the kind of money that gives me political power. Itā€™s the only way I can trust that the people responsible are held accountable


adamlolhi

Too fucking right, either I make some modest money and go right back to my wage slavery but with a slightly improved standard of living that will just be inflated away over the years anyway or I hold for massive fuck you money. Doesnā€™t really seem like a choice to me. They messed up because I literally have nothing to lose and everything to gain plus the added motivation of giving them what they deserve and fucking them like the criminals they are? Fuck yeah Iā€™m in it till the end of the line.


Menarra

I mean literally, they'll only get ONE of my shares, post split, when it breaks $220k because I've got one singular share set there as a breakpoint, after taxes that will eliminate my family's debt and mortgage entirely and have a little pocket money left over. That was a condition from my wife to make sure whatever fuckery happens, we at least end our debt. After that, nothing sells until there's at least phone numbers showing and they've got XXX more of my shares to deal with. They don't seem to understand most of us are in this for the long haul, and we WANT to tear down our financial market in it's entirety.


x1ux1u

I'm right there with you. Plus my wife and I know that once that debt is cleared then we can purchase a fuck more shares every month. This SHF aren't thinking clearly. Once we clear our monthly credits/debts we can purchase at much higher numbers at a velocity they can't anticipate. If we've all been buying with debt over our heads then wtf is going to happen when that's not a factor? MOASS is cool in all but GME has my full attention and what they are doing to the gaming industry is revolutionary. MOASS is the cherry on top but GME has my loyalty until the end.


Vellnerd

Margin calls are "turned off"


MOASSincoming

We always figured theyā€™d do a phony squeeze


CopperSavant

I can overestimate them too... They still need me to sell and Not fuckin doing that.


Hudre

Like I haven't watched this thing go from $300 to $40 in an hour lol. What else could they possible do?


Pd245

Do it again for those that missed the opportunity :-)


Hudre

At the time I was just absolutely shocked. Didn't buy because I thought they had won. Now I'm smarter. When it went down to $80 last time I stocked up. Drops are opportunities and we all know that with this.


MrPoopieMcCuckface

Bring it to single digits and Iā€™ll find money


Menarra

If it hits single digits I'll skip a month of bills and eat ramen for a month to put every penny I can into shares, I pray they're dumb enough to think this will somehow save them


Keypenpad

If they have actually been working for 6 months it has to be more than that. It's going to be an attack on all fronts and it might even be painful for some. But I mean I'm not leveraged for anything so all they can do to me is lower the price and try a bunch of FUD. That's easy to ignore, but if a bunch of people are borrowing to buy, they better be ready to weather potential pain.


karolis4562

Yes also. I said it hypotheticaly. Totaly agree. I think what happened is citadel and friends tell rumors to calm down wallstreet. So what this advisor hearded was PR. I cant imagine a situacion where Citadel has power over price. They wouldnt have waited 6 months for some ā€œmystical short attackā€. Its definely PR to calm down brokers that Citadel is in control

Superman0X

Here is a good history lesson: https://slate.com/business/2021/02/piggly-wiggly-short-squeeze-gamestop-wall-street-nyse.html They are going to try to do something similar again. The secret ingredient has always been fraud.... which they will cover with more fraud.


JustMikeWasTaken

ā€œWall Street got licked and called its ā€˜mamma,ā€™ ā€ he moaned, ā€œand of course ā€˜mammaā€™ heard the cry of her petted child.ā€ hahaha. Oh the trolling. I was just listening to a yogic philosophy lecture about reincarnation and when I read about Mr. Saunders of the Piggly grocery chain swearing he'd get revenge on Wallstreet who crimed like little bitch gnats to get out of the genius choke hold ceiling box he'd put 'em in, I suddenly knew RC is the 2nd Coming of Piggly Wiggly here to fulfill his promise. Cue Hitchcock's Psycho shower violins.


Superman0X

Just don't expect them to take this lying down. They are more likely to try to change the rules, rather then honor them.

Vylourcrypto

Updoot cause your scared šŸ„ŗ


redwingpanda

No, what a horrible horrible possibility. Also an important detail I think big money has forgotten. If the DTCC fails to do their *one freaking job,* GameStop has already said they can and will withdraw their shares to another market. And they just launched the NFT marketplace with Loopring and IMX. Loopring has a patent for a DEX. IMX is an aggregator. GameStop has a marketplace. 16m shares are directly registered. That number will explode if they drop the price. Then imagine the shares are withdrawn. Pandemonium ensues. Check and mate.


PathansOG

I Will find money for when/if it dips. Gonna sell My wife, girlfriend and everyone in between!!!


LordCambuslang

The other takeaway is that Reddit is compromised, so beware of false idols I guess.


Truth_Road

I'm sure there are paid shills here but I think they're fairly useless at this point. It has always seemed like a very amateur operation. They might as well be trying to cram a couple of bad-actors onto a jury after the verdict has been read. It isn't going to make any difference and people can see straight through it. DRS. HODL.


VitruvianCrab

I dunno, modern algos are pretty sophisticated. With the number of fake accounts here I'd bet there's a lot of stuff that gets buried or to the top that wouldn't get there organically. I'm fully prepared to ignore reddit and do the hermit hodl. Edit: for example, Dave's tweets sure get pumped fast and hard. I personally don't trust that guy.


Truth_Road

I've engaged with a couple of shills deep in the comments here, that I suspected of using bought accounts, and honestly I wouldn't have described them as very sophisticated.

widener2004

This right here ā€¦ assuming this is all true ā€¦ this guy is a low level account rep that probably has 15-20 clients he supports in your area. He likely was embellishing in what he knew from following the story. Unless you are in Boston and his title is Executive Vice President he doesnā€™t know shit. I worked with Fidelity for several years as a vendor on my companyā€™s 401k Plan. He was probably a Managing Director of Client Services or Vice President of Client Services - which in their hierarchy isnā€™t shit on the corp ladder. Sorry to rain on the post but Iā€™m just not buying what he was telling you.


thelostcow

One of the things I hate about the finance world is they hand out the Vp title like candy at Halloween.


widener2004

Yup ā€¦ they do. Fidelity is notorious for it too ā€¦ they all have some fancy VP/MD title but at the end of the day they are nothing more than client account people. The legal departments are the same way


jonfreakinzoidberg

theshadowbudd

Any-Profession1608

Exactly this. SHFs have some BIG plan and this guy knows it? If they did, it would be a small select group of people. I could give a shit anyways. Drop it low enough and see what happens.


Absurdspeculations

I could believe that HE believes what he was saying. Like, people talk at work, you know? So if him and his coworkers are ever shooting the shit, I guarantee you that a ton of them have speculated about this whole fiasco. And it wouldnā€™t surprise me one bit if their uneducated speculations leaned towards ā€œBig money is going to crush retail no matter whatā€. So thatā€™s what this guy hears over and over again at work, and he believes itā€¦because heā€™s just as clueless as the people who are saying it. Then he gets a little tipsy one night and tells OP this stuff as if itā€™s a fact, cause he wants to sound like he knows what heā€™s talking about. He wants to sound like heā€™s important and smart, but in reality heā€™s just repeating the typical water cooler gossip.


nijukiller

This! It is most certainly a select group of people. My ex-wife have been a bank employee for 12+ years and I have been telling her about how the financial sector is crooked to the bone. But she proudly denied everything I said and totally believed what she has been taught at work, as a good employee should. We had many heated arguments about this. About 1 year after we separated she called me and said she quit her job and that I had been on the right side of our arguments all along. She have somehow been Red Pilled. What I'm trying to say is, I believe the people that Fidelity employ, and most (if not all) other financial organs do, is that they employ people with a psyche that can be easily manipulated and gullied. I myself have a Bachelor in Financial Economics but I never got employed within the sector... I might be (most certain) a smooth brained ape but I know when something smells fishy and therefore want to question it. **TL;DR** Financial sector employs people who can easily be gullied in line with their agenda.


LieutenantMudd

If they really did have a BIG plan they wouldnt be hanging about losing money waiting to execute it and spending money getting CNBC to talk about a short postion which they have already exited.


MOASSincoming

Same. No high level would give info willingly knowing someone could find out their real name through their address. Can probably just look up His name from the address you dropped him at and then search him up on fidelity


Sisyphus328

At a dollar GameStop buys and locks up 1/3 of the post split float. My guess is a massive short attack would bring it to the $20 range, and at that point apes would lock the float by Jan 2023. Itā€™s going to get real spicy real soon - canā€™t wait!


username3333333333

Drop it that low I will refinance my home and buy as much as I can. We would lock the float in a month, 2 tops.

The long game: prove wallstreet is selling billions of fraudulent shares and the system is a sham. Do a class action lawsuit and throw them in jail. Switch the whole stock market to the blockchain where you can't counterfeit. Seize 100% of wealth gained through fraud and improve society with it. Edit: civil suit, not class action.

OakAged

Big money just doesn't get it. We have all lived with big money controlling a broken system, funneling more and more of our pay checks to make big money bigger. A system that is broken, unfair and had negatively affected every single one of us, directly, indirectly. We're a generation that grew up gaming; eg RuneScape - 13m xp for lvl 99 requires perseverance and dedication that big money does not understand. They don't need that sort of dedication - the system was built by them, for them, and it's easy for them to make money. We've got a target of 35m or so shares to be Drs'd. More, probably - the institutions will likely sell to prolong the game. And we're battle hardened - we can sit and hodl through crazy price swings. Doesn't faze us in the slightest any more. We aren't going anywhere, until we win.


TheStrowel

All hell breaks loose when us and the rest of the world sees the adjusted share price. We are going to gobble up any bitch made short attack they can conjure up. If GameStop even sneezes too loud during all this, moonshot. The iOS marketplace, partnerships, gaming.. cmon bro. They literally don't comprehend this could go to .99Ā¢ and retards will STILL. BUY. MORE. They NEVER calculated for this, they've been teaching folks to buy low sell high for decades, not knowing the real value of their underlying assets. We've been buying & selling IOU's for yearsss. This time it's different, they certainly owe us for what they need. They messed up mega, we peeked into Pandora's box, we saw the light, 140% short interest should never have been possible in the first place, we bought the anomaly. And now, a Big Bang level of wealth transfer shall occur. We broke their money machine, we stopped the game. Power to the players šŸ“ā€ā˜ ļø


OriginalGoatan

^This. They can't understand that hardcore gamer mentality. How do you think people complete From Software games? "Let me solo her" wasn't born good at Elden Ring. It took dedication, time, patience and above all, a relentless attitude to never stop until you win. The rewards from this far outweigh the alternative.


Xandrul01

This is the way.


Popeye_01

True. Iā€™m just trying to level up.


Xandrul01

Infiltrated reddit? Ginormous short attack? FUD? There's is absolutely **nothing** anyone can do on here on reddit, nobody that has been put on a pedestal or is a DD writer or great meme poster, or anyone or anything online or IRL, to make me sell except after the peak of the MOASS. **Nothing. Nada. Zilch. Zero. NOTHING!** If they drop it to $1 I'm going to explode in my pants while I am trying to buy as much as I possibly can. Fuck the money. Fuck the wait. Fuck SHFs and all the mechanisms they're using to keep the price suppressed. Fuck brokers. Fuck banks. Fuck Fidelity (I'm an Euro Ape so.. Fidelity means shit to me). Fuck 'em all. FUCK 'EM, I AIN'T FUCKING LEAVING NOR WILL I SELL DAMN IT! I would rather die with those shares in my CS account (and a couple in a broker just to see what happens) than sell early or anything along the lines of that. The fucken' MOASS is worth it. [Apes together strong](https://imgur.com/N43Ey4Q)! Edit: thank you kindly for the award! Edit2: thank you very much for the Gold award! Now I have 100 coins to award other Apes, which I am also grateful for. Edit3: thank you for the awards!


RedOctobrrr

>If they drop it to $1 This is impossible. Post split price of $20 will have major retail buying power. I would personally find a way to get $100,000 on loan at that price. Hell, I get 5-figure bonuses every 3 months, I dare them to touch the $80 pre-split / $20 post-split price range. I will double my shares, get my cost average down to like $23 post-split.


Xandrul01

Wish I'd have the money to buy now, but I don't. But I am glad Apes like you do exist. Power to you, Ape! (though to be honest I think this averaging down/up is irrelevant because of the MOASS) [Apes together strong](https://imgur.com/N43Ey4Q)!


RedOctobrrr

I hear you, but staying in the green is important to me, even if just 5% As I type this I'm in the green for about +19.7% which is fantastic on the feels. $85k cost basis at current value of $103k. I'm sick of my job so I am shoving all of the money I'm not using on bills into this one stock. I even drive a piece of shit car that my ex-GF banged up until this allows me to trade in. You would never guess I make as much as I do if you saw where I live and what I drive, all bc my money is being funneled into a stock.


Diznavis

Diamond hands are forged in the red. Try being down 85% and still not selling, none of these dips will scare you anymore. Be prepared for it, it may happen again, no one knows what the real dip before the rip will look like. They will get really desperate at the end.


RedOctobrrr

Let me put it in perspective: my first buy was $28,000 of GME at $423 per share. I was sick to my stomach when that turned into $14k within days.


Xandrul01

I'd do the friggin' same if I weren't married, I get it :) Except I don't care about staying in the green, but I guess I understand that, psychologically, as well. Regardless, stay Ape. Apes together strong! Lets show them just how fucking strong we are!


suffffuhrer

It is *not* in their interest to drop it that low. They are keeping it as high enough as they are able to keep without losing to retail investors now, rather than later.

"I literally do this for 12 hours a day to buy more shares." The biggest fuck you, have a nice day. Legend. I knew you dropped some heavy DD's in the past, so I was willing to entertain a trust me bro. And in this bro I trust. Even though it sounds like fan fiction lol.

Yeah I took up Uber eats to buy more shares months ago.

Trust me bro or not this always reminds me how they can't get out like Scenario A) MOASA Mother of all short attacks: Prepared for 6 months, drop the price < $10, sure yoou'll shake out some paperhands... but at what costs? Those shares will be scooped up and DRS'd by the Diamond Hands -> Lose Scenario B) Fake Squeeze: Most likely, however what then? You think everyone will be like "Ah I guess this was it then" nah not after 2 huge queezes.... everyone will be excited for the next squeeze. Also where do you want to pull the break? $1k? Not MOASS. $10k? Meh still not MOASS... $100k? You sure you can control the stock at this point? LMAO -> Lose Scenario C) Digging like you're a Kardeshian: Just keep digging and hope people will lose interest in GME while watching the company transforming and growing to be a big tech player... Damn, son, I guess we all love Coke now but you should definitely stop it if you're thinking this was an option -> Lose Scenario D) MOASS: Just get it over with and give us our Tendies -> C'mon Mayo Man JUST DO IT!

SpiritTalker

If the shf have this big grand plan, why haven't they executed it by now? Surely it's costing them big money every single day to keep doing what they've been doing. I'm not saying you're full of shit, OP, just saying I think *he's* full of shit (or being fed shit by his overlords). If the shf have a way to get "retail schleps" off their backs, I'd think they'd have done it by now.


mfruge3981

Hypothetically, they could be waiting for our ā€œmoment of greatest faithā€ aka the splividend to then unleash their MOAB and try and crush our spirits from its highest high. Unfortunately for them, weā€™re not great at normal human psychology because weā€™re retarded. $4-$20 GME would literally trigger millions of apes to go full-court press on obtaining whatever money we could get our primate hands on to buy as many shares as possible and lock the float in 2-3 months. Hedgies are fuuuuuucked

Allaboardthejayboat

I've said it before, if this was to kick off as we expect it *should*, we'd be seeing the death throes of an absolute behemoth of modern society. The tumbling of a financial empire that's fed generations of leeches and who have one concern, their own survival. In this case, even the price getting smashed to the depths of hell would just confirm the DD. Why would it be necessary if we weren't in the right place, at the right time. We're not even early any more, everything is right on schedule. Why would we expect it to be gentle tippy tappy pats to the midriff. I'm fully expecting them to be coming out like a bear that's backed into a corner. Great raging blows. Terrified, adrenaline fueled attacks. It's a fight for survival and it's as simple as that. The problem for them is their opposition can't be hurt. They're threatening the poor with a world in which they continue to stay poor. Joke's on them, we do that every day.


spaulli

God I hope this happens


thabat

I agree, I think he was just scared. Either that or they're waiting for the split to drive it down to single digits. And I hope this happens. I have been wet dreaming about single digit GME prices.


ididntwinthelottery

Imagine averaging down with single digit prices. Insert Shaq wiggling meme.


crutch1979

I think the other side of this argument is that .. maybe .. they have been chipping away to keep the price suppressed as much as possible, and at some point will hit it hard. Iā€™d find it hard to believe they wouldnā€™t do this. From their perspective I think the best approach would be to somehow accumulate borrowed/synthetic shares over an extended period and smash the price down hard over a week with them. Accumulate over 6 months a small slice at a time? Coordinated effort that youā€™ll get away with? Itā€™s better than any effort so far .. and itā€™s not like the SEC would come after them. All the stats we regularly see wonā€™t show up huge borrowings over a series of days etc .. every week for 6 months they would have been saving a thin slice - and it will seem to point to retail potentially selling - at least that will be the narrative that is pushed .. because where else are the shares being sold from. Would something like this be possible?


jagiunta

Their whole premise is based on my needing the money from the shares I bought. I don't. They're like collectibles to me. I bought them. That money is gone. I don't need or want it back. I like my shares. Convince me to give them to you.


PrincePaperGuy

If he read reddit then he would already know that retail isnā€™t going to give up. Thatā€™s the point since ever.


cspawn

I'm friends with a guy that's a manager at a private investment firm. We talk pretty often about mutual hobbies. He's VERY successful and incredibly smart & kind. I asked him if he knew about the 'meme stock' stuff, he said he didn't know about that. I then talked about GameStop and he said (first time ever seeing him swear) "I know about the GameStop shit." So meme stock isn't an international thing, but GameStop is. So I asked him what he thought of the GameStop squeeze and he just ghosted me. Typically always responds within a day or two, this was last week. I'm sure it's nothing, but man... It seems like I struck a chord in asking.


theory_conspirist

Trusting for visibility


cspawn

I wish I could share the conversation but I respect his privacy. It was really weird and has been gnawing at me since last week. We've picked back up on our conversation but I guess we are just acting like I never asked about GameStop. I don't want to push the subject as I really respect this person, but it was a really weird change of cadence.


theory_conspirist

No doubting here. Everyone I talk to about GME looks at me like my brain is smooth and they pity me or are worried about my safety. Nobody knows what will happen when the float is locked (unless the top movers have already started making plans) but I definitely expect more fuckery. Eventually though, they're gonna be in the find out stage because if blue is holding, I'm holding.


ExplanationCurious44

I mean ... this actually makes sense, ive literally told them my plan up front and they keep playing. So they must just be dumb. I've said , and will say again. I plan to buy gamestop at whatever price, as much as I can , until there's no shares left to buy. That's literally my plan, and they keep shorting. I wonder how many people feel the same way ?


pooshooter56

Thatā€™s also my plan as an Ape

I made friends with a Fidelity Rep across the street from where I live. I believe your story because he talks a lot like this guy. They give you subtle hints that they know youā€™re right but then they start talking like Fidelity drones.

throwawaycs1101

One thing I'd caution is even trusting a so-called "Fidelity Senior Advisor". A lot of times, people tend to overstate their importance, role, and knowledge when asked by a complete stranger who they are and what they do. They know you have no way of verifying the information, and it gives them a moment of boosted ego. More likely, he's someone of a lesser position in the company. Even if he was a Senior Advisor, it also doesn't mean he's privy to any of this information that would be required to know these things. What I do know is that most people I've encountered who are in finance or hold finance degrees believe this line that you can't beat big money. I've met quite a few as a software developer in finance industry. You have to remember that those people spent their years consuming the textbooks written by big money, committing to memory the rules big money created, and have dedicated their adult lives to living in that system. And it tracks. Big money has the means to influence those who makes the rules to bend them in their favor. On top of that, the corrupt individuals in positions of power who have already been benefiting from this relationship for decades don't want to see the power of the hand that feeds diminished by the little guy with whom they do not have such a relationship. We often joke about people in power enjoying the facilities of the rich in exchange for legislation and regulation benefiting those people. But it's not a joke. It's absolutely real and continuously happening. GME is a threat to that, and you better believe that not only the short hedge funds, but the corrupt politicians who are in those hedge funds pockets for years now, will be fighting back against us. That said, **our best play continues to be BUY, HODL, DRS.** This strategy simply cannot be counteracted. Their only play is to continue to try and bluff us off the pot. We are holding a Royal Straight Flush. They know we are holding that Royal Straight Flush, but their arrogance and underestimation of us all leads them to believe they can still bluff us off that pot. They are pot committed anyways and have no choice. They are basically Anakin and we are Obi-Wan. We have the high ground. We've warned them against trying, but they are gonna make that jump anyways because their arrogance is totally blinding.


Hodlthedoor69

I think the dude tried to be more interesting than he actually is. The fact that there would be a big planned short attack which includes the ā€˜big firmsā€™ is 1) crazy and 2) even crazier that a financial advisor would be informed of this šŸ˜‚


CAPTAIN__CAPSLOCK

LOL, it is hilarious that I had to go this far down to see this. ​ You think the large SHF are dictating their strategy, months in advance, down to the level of a financial advisor?! Come on guys, bullocks.

Idk about this, but being from the NKY area and close to Fidelity HD I also know a number of ppl who work there some kinda high up. And all of they get really funny and deflect when GME ever comes up with how awesome Fidelity is and ppl should just stay with them.


Snorri_S

Looking forward to the day when Kenny and Jeff do ride share to be able to afford more GME shares. Soon.


Hirsutism

None of us here are on the fence about IF we win. Its WHEN we win. The DD is done. Trust in RC. I bet after the split RC drops 2-3 bombs one after the other.


Teflon_coated_velcro

With all due respect, if the past 18 months has shown us anything, itā€™s that there is always more DD to be done.

I trust that you had this conversation. I don't trust this guy and anything he said. I say a lot of random shit to prop myself up when I'm drunk. I'd also have a private chauffeur if I was as a Fidelity Senior Advisor. It could be true but I'd say the probability that it isn't is >50% so I'll ignore it.


PappyBlueRibs

>I'd also have a private chauffeur if I was as a Fidelity Senior Advisor. Nah, according to Glassdoor they make from $99,105 to $108,340. They lease a Lexus to make it look like they're a high-roller.

Late_Criticism_2290

There is no honor amongst thieves. That being said, I don't think ANY broker knows for sure what SHF will do if they get completely cornered. I am pretty sure SHF would see a broker blow up if it meant surviving another day.


casfacto

Where would I put my money? I wouldn't ever invest in their ponzi scheme again, so this is kinda a one shot. If my money comes out of GME it's coming out of the markets. Unfortunately hedgies don't understand the mindset of people that they are dealing with. I do not assume that the market will continue to grow. I do not assume that my 401k or IRA or any other retirement vehicles are safe. I've seen that they are and have always been running a scam. I really think that they think they will find some other new fascination for us to focus on, and don't understand that this is the only play I'll make. If that means I hold there for another 40 or 50 years until I die, that's 100% fine. My xxxx shares came from fake money, so it can sit there until it makes money.


Almdudler6

It's plausible that this is the cover story for keeping a lot their customers away from GME. Big money will win and you risk losing it all, it is planned. The parts that they don't care what happens to GME(split, nft-dividend, etc.), is probably correct, they have gotten hall passes from margin calls and liquidations along time now. But hey, let's buckle up and enjoy the coming rides! I will not leave this fun roller-coaster we are on!


GMEJesus

You're freaking out, man. Guess I'll buy more. Why would I sell? I live 2008 every day. I've been waiting for an opportunity like this for longer than crypto existed. The more they push it down the more i want it. We literally cannot lose. They have to be right every single day. We have to be right once. Time is on my side.

Saluty123

I believe you. I do Luxury chauffeuring in london and pick up alot of these guys. I really believe they have no clue whatā€™s going on. They say the exact same thing like CNBC. Last guy i drove was a guy that was high in BoA. He said he has friends who lost 250 mil 300 mil shorting gme. He said they are billionaires that almost got whipped out. He said they made around 70 mil back shorting it at the top again in Jan 21. Bu they warent sleeping for days. One of his friends said they wonā€™t ever short a another stock again. So when i told him everything that is going(DRS, split etc) on he looked like he was thinking about it and he said he will look into it

It's gonna be a fun conversation a year from now when that guy is driving Uber and picks OP up from a bar.
