The afterhours trades are not material. The panic at today's real close told the story. David and Goliath and all. Best of luck everyone. Today was epic fun. Do we think this happens with any other stocks or just other ones we’ve seen so far? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Good commentary here from Chamath. Typical - when it's HST firms frontrunning retail investors, no problem. Hedge funds shorting a stock for more shares than the float - no problem. Retail investors buying a stock en masse, in public view, no insider knowledge - OH, NO, HOLY #### THIS MUST BE STOPPED. Yeah - eff that. This is just price discovery based on market mechanics. If we allow this type of massive synthetic shorting we should allow the opposite. 8 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It says because they are under "in tents" load, which was true because the posts weren't loading. They can't make it private as they will always need increasing numbers to do what they are doing at $600 a pop. Guys can't even spell, yet causing this type of chaos.

FreeBaGeL 9,388 Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 (edited) Dang I thought I was special. Well I panic sold all my non-gme runners that were going (nok, nakd, etc) pretty much at the lows so that sucked. Still hodling gme itself though. Should have bought more on the dip but I'm a pansy.

I think their current business model is ultimately doomed, but I also don’t think that the company itself was in danger of going under imminently unless the shorting hedge funds forced them under.

I’m gonna guess no since consoles and Steam and many publishers have their own established online distribution. They would have to make deals with those same people and wouldn’t be able to compete on price or user base. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ok... well what about turning their B&M locations into arcades where you can play your online games with your buddies but they are actually in the same room. You rent a chair and they have big TVs with all the consoles and souped up PCs. Just bring your headset and log in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
