    They've moved on to PMs. Specifically, silver.

    “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

    Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

      Like the Hunt brothers.

      They’ll end up, after a lot of drama, with the same formula they use every time they have a trifecta: take away health care and food assistance from low income families and use the money to fund tax cuts for their donors.

          Currently up 100% from when I bought it. I don't have plans to sell, though.

              Even Zizek has a GameStop take.

                    It's taken a beating in after hours trading. It closed at about 220.

                      @lufins-dad It’s pretty much impossible to borrow

                        Ha! It's one thing to "know" (as we all did) that a stock's price will soon plummet. It's another to put money on the short knowing there is in theory no limit to the losses you could incur if the stock price goes to the moon.

                          Even if you can put up the money and have enough money in reserve to withstand the risk, sometimes there is no stock for you to borrow to “short” the stock. Recall I linked to an article earlier about more than 100% of GameStop stock have been shorted. That’s a pretty good indication that there is none left to be borrowed.

                            We are likely at peak GameStop. Now it’s gets tough. In heroin lingo it’s called chasing the dragon.

                              GME price movement must be nearly unprecedented. In the first 2.5 hours of trading today, it's fallen by 50%, then doubled, then fallen again by 25%. And that's all from an opening price of 40% less than the close the day before.

                                  EDS? Or Perot Data Systems?

                                  They’ll end up, after a lot of drama, with the same formula they use every time they have a trifecta: take away health care and food assistance from low income families and use the money to fund tax cuts for their donors.

                                        Too early to say for sure but it appears GME had a rapid unscheduled disassembly today.

                                          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
