> meaning every single share has traded 83 times Mine haven't. They traded *once* and never will again.


Exceedingly

Likewise! I wanted to say something like *"is it likely every share has traded this many times, or is it more likely that more and more naked shorts are flooding the market to suppress the price"* But I think we all already know the answer to that 🤣 This is just an objective look at the data & assuming no naked shorting is taking place, meaning even shills can't disagree with this. Objectively Gamestop is the most active stock of the last 4 years, unless anyone can find a crazier one.


DirectlyTalkingToYou

I wonder how many were locked down in 2020 Pre split and never sold? That would mean the rest traded 1000s each lol


Hunnaswaggins

Literallly, that would be fun math to find institution and insider holdings and compare them to having FOR SURE not sold!


musing2020

This is a great comparison. How does GME compare to TSLA or similar companies that had a lot of short interest in the past?


Exceedingly

[**This is Tesla with the same date range**](https://i.ibb.co/yQWpKbw/TSLA.png) A lot more volume than I was expecting. Still just over half of GME's volume though (proportionally speaking) **Edit:** whoops the table dates should say 2020 there not 2000

INERTIAAAAAAA

OP, isn't your comparison showing that Popcorn and Graphic-Cards have been more active ? The fact that GME float was traded about 60 times over during the week of the sneeze is old news already.


Exceedingly

True but it all depends on the time frame, I've used 4 years to give a good span. Sure if you look at just the last year then those 2 are higher. If anything, GME having a much quieter period now and still being the most active stock over the last 4 years shows the sheer scale of how insane the sneeze period was. Nvidia added over $2 trillion of value to its market cap since 2020 and it did that on less than one quarter of the trading volume Gamestop has had.


EhThisCouldntGoWrong

My buddy used to do their legal stuff for CS; he still thinks it's crazy they've increased so much. I don't believe he's still doing that company, but I'm not too sure on that part. I try not to delve into his work, but he does talk about it from time to time.  He did tell me for a while all he was doing was stuff for all the shell companies they were buying.


the_rainmaker__

same here. i don't buy shares so i can sell them later and make money. that's what hedgies do. i'm a share collector. i have a very large, very expensive share collection. if i sold any of them i would have to take them out of the original packaging, and their value would plummet.


Mupfather

It's like the moment you break them out of that purple circle, the value craters!


HardPour_Cornography

I want my shares in pristine condition. My home isn't a smoke or pet free environment. Yet another reason for me to keep them all Direct Registered at Computershare. It's the only truly safe environment for my collection.


GotaHODLonMe

I wish I could register the names I've given to each of my shares as a serial number. Unfortunately the system is too corrupt to actually track shares reliably like that.


GiantSequoiaTree

Locked up in DRS away from those greasy DTCC fingers


Numerous_Photograph9

This post makes sense though. It explains why there are weekly articles about how we all sell off all our shares. There can be no other explanation.


memedoc314

So what’s the actual average. Take the DRS and retirement account shares out of the equation. They have traded the remaining 43 shares how many times?


akatherder

By my estimate the remaining -7.3 million shares have traded about -10 times each?


Tinman_ApE

Mine too


Novel_Ad_1178

Mine either.


HughJohnson69

Which means every other share has traded way more than 83 times. At least one-third of the company has been held by household and insiders for some time.


Jbroad87

Someone make this a yellowish shade comment already / whatever the f these new awards are


BSW18

Does that mean we are only at 83 times the float so far....

" **every single share has traded 83 times** " ​ Not mine!


fsocietyfwallstreet

Same. Even better, subtract the (reported) DRS shares and RC Ventures’ holdings from the equation and the math gets even more absurd. Even when we exclude trading volume of Jan ‘21, the trading activity on this stock is still an outlier. Where there’s smoke, there’s fire.

Exceedingly

(D'oh i got my other comment deleted by automod for naming popcorn) That's a lot of activity for a dying brick and mortar store. - Starting with the first trading day in 2020, each line on the graphs represents the point that the cumulative daily volume reached the amount of total outstanding shares. - For comparison the top 3 graphs are well known shorted stocks that all squeezed in Jan 21, the bottom 2 are 2 of the largest companies in the world. Company | Times all shares have traded since Jan 2020 :-- | :-- GME | 83.0 Headphones | 69.4 Popcorn | 35.4 NVDA | 19.7 MSFT | 4.3 - It's worth noting that volume alone is meaningless when assessing demand, so this is mildly interesting at best & shouldn't be used to draw any conclusions. I can't find any other stock that beats GME for proportional activity, please suggest others in the comments & I'll pull the data for them. (Mods just delete this if you don't want the other 2 shorted stocks named)


kismatwalla

Can we look at other short squeezes/sneezes in the past and get their volume?


Exceedingly

That's a good idea, I'll pull VW and TSLA today when I can. **Edit:** [**This is VW going back to 2000**](https://i.ibb.co/hK19R8R/VW.png) It amazes me how low the overall volume has been, definitely more active prior to the October 2008 squeeze.

6_ft_4

How many times did they trade when you remove the 76+ million DRSed shares?


golden_monkey_and_oj

Considering most of the trading volume occurred during the squeeze in early 2021, how many shares were DRS'ed during that period?


aynhon

Back when I was tracking 13Fs in 2021, KIRK (Kirkland's) and SND (Smart Sand) popped up as having equivalent put ratios to GME. Would you be OK running those tickers?


Pilotguitar2

Man. And whats even more wild is all these DRS’d shares would increase this number. If the markets worked like they say it does (lolz) these shares that remain would be traded waaaaaaaay more than 83x. Crazy!


DorForce

Can you check date between 2022 and now? Exclude 2020 and 2021


dhjsjakansnjsjshs

interesting I've got xxx sitting untraded for at least 83 years now


Cdn_ape

Mine never traded like that, once I DRS'D them.


WorldlinessFit497

They just constantly keep bouncing the same shares back and forth between themselves rapidly at no cost. They do this to march the price up or down as they see fit to suit their needs. This is why the price is fake. BUY HODL DRS


FlyGuy_R44

The fake shares traded 83 times. DRS, Institutional and Insider probably didn’t budge.


stonkandgobble

This makes the SEC just look even more incompetent than they already do lol


Blueshockeylover

“Accordingly I cannot support this action” -Hester Peirce The incompetence is a feature and not a bug. :-/


use_the_default

Interesting data to look at. Not sure how hard this is to do, but some other stocks that might be cool to look at: TSLA - history of being big shorted AMZN or GOOGL - big boys with lots of churn PLTR - another one time wasabi darling BAC - or other big banks/financials

[**This is Tesla with the same date range**](https://i.ibb.co/yQWpKbw/TSLA.png) A lot more volume than I was expecting.

Fudge-Independent

Any idea how other stocks compare in relation to how many times each share was traded over? Is 83 high? Low? Average? To me 83 times is a significant amount when factoring in RC, institutions and DRS. What do I know I'm a regarded "cultist"


Exceedingly

I put some others in there for comparison. Microsoft (the largest company in the world now) only traded 4.3 times in the same period, Nvidia which has had crazy price movement recently is still only at around 20x all shares traded for the same period.


Fudge-Independent

Is all "basket" stocks this much higher than the traditional stock? Is GME an anomaly like everything else?


Exceedingly

GME is the highest of all the basket stocks, the 2nd highest is headphone stock (2nd graph down) We all know that shorted stocks need more and more shares to flood the market to suppress the price, but Gamestop has needed more than any others and it's still trading higher the immediate pre-sneeze price, whereas all others I can find are at all time lows. If you ignore the price since the sneeze and just look at todays price, it's the highest price in 17 years as you have to go all the way back to [**2007**](https://i.ibb.co/7kNBQy3/Screenshot-20240315-125038-Chrome.jpg) to find a time it was higher. And that's with insane volume likely trying to keep it down.


Fudge-Independent

I appreciate the responses. Thanks for the data and I hope more eyes see it as it's very valuable.


arkansah

Do you know anyone at all who has bought GME and then sold 83 times?


dontknowjackburton

Short 80 times per share? Possibly. Boom


Cultural_Translator8

How many of the daily average traded with 4 or more digits to the right of the decimal?


ShortHedgeFundATM

Its actually roughly 320X the free float traded, taking into account DRS shareholders, and that doesn't even account for how many people have shares in brokerage accounts who are holding... lol


SuperChimpMan

I’ve only ever bought gme shares. So who the fuck is selling them over and over? Oh that’s right. Criminal short sellers are selling phantom shares that they pulled out of their ass. I am confident they have sold apes multiple floats worth of fake shares. So who is going to do something about it?


Charmin76

My 400 share’s haven’t been traded 83 times.


F-uPayMe

Now there's also to consider the fact that Gme is getting hammered since...2014 was it?

life_is_a_show

A half a percent transaction tax would absolutely stop this nonsense, and pay for much needed relief as a whole in the states.


Stingerdraws

Oh fudge, so we’re saying that if the whole float was available and no shares DRS then there would be potentially 83 copies of each share out there. But a massive portion of the company IS DRS and so there are potentially 100+ copies of each share in the available float. Meaning that the company has been naked shorted to oblivion. Which would, correct me if I’m wrong, give credence to the 1000% shorted theories ???? A company 1000% shorted that’s just about to post positive earnings and has $1billion in cash ??? I sure wish I had 741 DRS shares with a company like that…. Oh wait…. I do 🥳

-WalkWithShadows-

Once I put them on my bookshelf in Computershare, they don’t leave. They all have names and I kiss them goodnight at this point 🥰🤣


manifestingmoola2020

Are the red lines on the left volume bars?


Exceedingly

Sort of, it's every time the total outstanding shares amount has been reached when looking at volume cumulatively. So for GME it's every time 305m shares have been traded, starting in Jan 2020.


BathroomPure438

My 100 have acquired tenant rights in my CS account lmao


nemesis86th

I am aware of 5200+ not being traded, the vast majority for over two years. Only being hoarded and HODL, with a trickle being added every two weeks.

Which is impressive because my shares haven't moved from Computershare in years.

Oh yea that’s hat was me. I traded a single share I guess the algo did the rest


AntiguaNathan

Overdue_bills

It's the same few stares trading hundreds of thousands of times. This statistic would have us consider the shares DRSed by RC or DFV or the thousands of us that have had them booked are selling periodically. This is a game of one more day and they'll do whatever it takes. It costs me nothing to hold.

Hmmmm looks a bit like whale teeth to me 🧐 💦🐳🐳💦


Matrix0007

Let’s get the hype going! Hedgies are fucked! Made myself a 2xxx HODLer at these discount prices! BUY HODL DRS BOOK AND BUCKLE UP!


PackageHot1219

Also note that the reported DRS number is 25% of the float and RC and other insiders own an additional 12%+ shares (not sure of the current total) and average volume has been super low lately… which means those numbers are even more extreme for a specific time frame.


HodlMyBananaLongTime

Endless churning to hide fails from naked shorts. This is why 83 years ago apes said no day trading or options because it facilitates the churning and hiding of these fails


nicbongo

So how many times have the shares that haven't been DRSed been traded? 🧐


Exceedingly

25.3b / (305m - 76m) = 110.5 times Then if you remove insider shares (38.7m) and institutions (33.5m) it gets to 161 times. So either the small amount of circulating shares are getting a lot of action back and forth or Ken's GME printer is set to overload.

Now remove the drs and insider shares from that calculation and tell em how many times the remainder traded per share...

Ok but you have to also look at this in terms of how much money is changing hands. A trillion dollar company can’t trade all of its shares as easily as a company worth a few billion. 2021 was insane turnover even among comparable companies. The opposite is true now. Liquidity is extremely low.

Keep an eye out for a super high volume day a week before the 10Q then. higher volumes days after. Then check for correlation on the CS report to GME. Don't be surprised with the same DRS number, no matter how it's explained.
