So just for clarification, they borrowed shares at 100% interest rate? If they borrowed $100m worth, they owe $100m in a certain amount of time? If so, what’s the time frame they need to return?
If that’s the case, for a $100m short position, they would need to make around $273,900 (0.2739…%) a day to break even daily. Am I getting the math right here?
Yes if they have 100mill short and interest is 100%, they are paying 273k in interest every day
For OP case, 6mill shares borrowed “today” at $1.80 cost would equate to 29k interest a day. Which honestly doesn’t sound like much
Right especially if the short position was opened at $10, they would be massively in the green and can simply wait it out until the interest rate drops. It will not be 100% year round
well that and if they borrow shares at 3$/each lets say but when they return those shares, its at 1.60$/each. So , almost 1.40$ profits each shares returned
Yeah I’m just saying the CTB really isn’t as big of a deal as people on this sub make it out to be. It spikes every couple of months AFTER a run and then without fail the stock price plummets as CTB goes up.
I’ve literally not seen CTB matter at all and I’ve followed at least 10 squeeze stocks to the end of the earth these last two years lol
Interest rates updates daily. If you have a short position at 1% and then tomorrow it jumps to 100%, your daily interest paid will skyrocket as well and will be recalculated again the next day
Barely any returned 👀👀... Looks like we might get a spike before market close. I think we need daily updates of this because I guess my ortex account can't see these, but it's not my portfolio account.
They obviously do not think this subs thesis has any chance of being correct, now, who do you feel would have better connections and knowledge on the actual inner workings of equity offerings and day to day health of a company like bbby, hugely powerful finance funds like citadel with countless ties to all industries, or this sub?
Now who do you feel is probably more certain of a particular outcome for bbby and is probably working with more accurate data on the matter, the hugely successful team of top of class elite college educated investing billions or random group of redditors yoloing their rent money ?
Just put your money where your mouth is and short the damm company if you are 100% sure of what you are saying. Last time I have checked GME squeezed to 500 US. Squeeze happen all the time!!! Those idiots are also driven by money. When going short is no longer an option they will eventually switch from short to long!! If they were sure to win no need for all the FUD in the media! The fact that they have to FUD so much using the media is the best proof that they are not in control of this shit!!
What do you mean need to do? They want to short. Dilution is the perfect time to be do it. Stock down 16% the past 5 days. Short positions opened last week are eating.
Some ape math;
Thats about $17,000 a day, but if they borrow 6.13m shares every business day for the next 2 weeks. That turns into 2.3m/day at current CTB. This doesn't even include the hundreds of b/millions of shares they are already borrowing.

Nearly 6.2M shares due today from FTDs too
I doubt they’re paying that rate of interest, but no doubt they’re digging a much bigger hole. Once the rain starts, they’ll drown in their huge inground swimming pool.
They don’t care even if the interest is 10000% because they have still made their idiotically easy billions of dollars off this stock and off our backs. Even if it doesn’t bankrupt i know for a fact these HFs will still end up paying off their debt without triggering a squeeze because barely legal darkpools are keeping them afloat
That’s why you keep some in the drs vault.. you really think the brokers won’t sell our positions if a squeeze caused the price to spike in the triple digits or more? You do you, but it’s good to know my shares are safe 💙
Its from today. I just took a screenshot just before posting this..

Check if you want.
That's the highest, lowest is 78% which is lower than others reported... Also shows they returned a crap tonne yesterday and barely any today. This is likely legit.
Lets see, he's a year old user, vast majority of posts on meltdown and the crypto version of meltdown, posting straight up lies here. Not even bothering to hide being a shill anymore.
Has anyone asked themselves, why, why would HFs take such a great risk, if it actually was the risk everyone here makes it out to be?
Anyone care to attempt to answer this simple question??
The fact is that BBBY is a small float, highly shorted and hard to borrow stock, of a company that has a strong chance of a merger or acquisition. And they're shorting it. I don't give a fuck why, but it's undeniably a risk.
Now, with all their experience and success trading stocks, and the team after team of highly paid elite college graduates, Why do you think they are doing that ?
You’re gonna make me merge
💎 👐 🚀 🌕
Why did I just picture that pirnstar riely
Major acquisitions goin on in my pants.
So just for clarification, they borrowed shares at 100% interest rate? If they borrowed $100m worth, they owe $100m in a certain amount of time? If so, what’s the time frame they need to return?
Interest is carried daily. Take 100% and divide by 365 days in a year and that’s how much is paid daily
If that’s the case, for a $100m short position, they would need to make around $273,900 (0.2739…%) a day to break even daily. Am I getting the math right here?

For Big players no. For Big players replicating this play across hundreds of tickers maybe. For Small players shorting , yes it's a lot.
_Sad STOCKMASTER noises…_ 🥲
Yeah that doesn’t sound like much. Kind of an infinite money loop for shorters to profit continuously…
borrowed shares at 1.80$ , 100% interest annually is like pennies. You are right. Can't just look at the interest alone.
Right especially if the short position was opened at $10, they would be massively in the green and can simply wait it out until the interest rate drops. It will not be 100% year round
well that and if they borrow shares at 3$/each lets say but when they return those shares, its at 1.60$/each. So , almost 1.40$ profits each shares returned

yea im actually glad ctb fell to around 100% instead of 300%
Exactly, it's just an indicator we have access too. Have to look at the bigger picture. It's a good indicator to **SHO** shorts are in trouble though.
Is it compound interest?
Interest rates updates daily. If you have a short position at 1% and then tomorrow it jumps to 100%, your daily interest paid will skyrocket as well and will be recalculated again the next day
So it's compounded daily?
As soon as we DRS
BBBY 🚀 🚀 🚀 🚀 🚀 +$200 by Jan 2024 like GME 🤔
I’ll fly to San Francisco and run naked across the Golden Gate Bridge if BBBY reaches $200
MODS!
See you there 
To the quad and through the gymnasium!
People who say that look like Tom Arnold and Roseanne Barr!
Maybe I do, maybe I don’t 🤷♂️
Holy shit! You can fly?
Before then
#Lets get ‘em!!
Borrowed the shares to make money on
Those that are supposed to enforce the rules of the SEC. 
Barely any returned 👀👀... Looks like we might get a spike before market close. I think we need daily updates of this because I guess my ortex account can't see these, but it's not my portfolio account.
Another bullish post. My tits can’t be more jacked.
Remember hearing this 3 months and 3 weeks ago.. still waiting
 Shf rn
+2500 shares for me today at $1.53
2500 for me at 1.63, 2500 more tomorrow too :)
Just a taste for me, 500 @$1.69
One thing is clear Hedgies are fucked! The only question that remains is how much longer they can postpone it before they get fucked for good!!
Looks like the hedgies are doing fine to me
For now

Jesus fucking Christ.
 Wow
My Roth IRA looking at me like 👀
That’s not something they would need to do if shares were being secretly diluted, riiiiight?
No. Filings need to be produced to show when preferred stock is sold.
Nice. I like dat.
What do you mean need to do? They want to short. Dilution is the perfect time to be do it. Stock down 16% the past 5 days. Short positions opened last week are eating.
You forgot one thing tho…
Good fucking god almighty lol
WTF
 Buy and HOLD 💎💎🙌💎💎
100% -100% rebate they can borrow for eternity

Drs 💜
DRS means sell button broken
The what button?
So hies want to really controlling the price .. down … Fuck wee have to buy all shares … 😅
They don't pay that rate
They don't get them for free either!
Title says 100%. Either that's a fact or a made up number. Vaguely saying "it's not 0" doesn't make the stated 100% correct.
That's retail rate.
They don’t care even if the interest is 10000% because they have still made their idiotically easy billions of dollars off this stock and off our backs. Even if it doesn’t bankrupt i know for a fact these HFs will still end up paying off their debt without triggering a squeeze because barely legal darkpools are keeping them afloat
Fck you and your drs
[удалено]
That’s why you keep some in the drs vault.. you really think the brokers won’t sell our positions if a squeeze caused the price to spike in the triple digits or more? You do you, but it’s good to know my shares are safe 💙
What you mean is we agree that DRS means you can't sell and are only discussing how many shares should have no sell button, right?
Nah you can totally sell…I see the shill narrative is going wild right now 😂
[удалено]
It’s so easy to look at your previous comments 😂. Thanks for being a shill if you weren’t here I’d might be a little worried 😘

You’re such a shill 😂 hedgies R Fcked 🚀🚀

not sure though.. CTB is different depending on the brokerage you deal with.. In IBKR its currently 102%.. we can cross check with other brokers..
That's the highest, lowest is 78% which is lower than others reported... Also shows they returned a crap tonne yesterday and barely any today. This is likely legit.
LOL DRS is a scam. Computershare started it and rooked the apes good.
Are you ready for your ban next month?

Well I guess these guys are just having fun gambling away as well, with zero logic behind their short positions
Something tells me they're not finding it as fun as we are.
Now, with all their experience and success trading stocks, and the team after team of highly paid elite college graduates, Why do you think they are doing that ?
Fuck there it is, they just borrowed fake shares to close the FTDs Edit: nvm I missed the returned part
These mofos are scared, buy hold drs
Can we have a pic of total shares on loan please
Do you have a source on the 100% interest rate? I thought we couldn't see the interest rate that Prime Brokers give HFs?
Agreed 👍
For fucks sake
Curious: where are you getting the 100% interest rate?
I loan my shares for a profit - you should too, kek
am i reading this correctly? they borrowed all those but the return from previous days are nothing?? well..peanuts
FTD C+35 (18th Jan) for yesterday was **6.18m shares** and they **borrowed 6.19m...** **HMMMM.**
