    TDAmeritrade announcement

    In the interest of mitigating risk for our company and clients, we have put in place several restrictions on some transactions in $GME, $AMC and other securities. We made these decisions out of an abundance of caution amid unprecedented market conditions and other factors.

    The ironic thing about this WSB/'to the moon' movement is they are unwittingly acheiving the opposite of what they are setting out to do.

    Market inefficiences will benefit the institutional investment firms. Institutional traders with their armies of quantitative analysts and arificial intelligence are probably already, as we post, backtesting new strategies to profit from this new market behaviour.

    They will find a strategy that works, feed it into the algo trader, and cash in.

    But if the company is more than 100% shorted will a lot of buyers be closing their positions?

    If I understand it right, serious losses for short sellers here. They might be better to hold tough and wait for the madness to end. I find it hard to think that those pumping the stock will keep buying. Those in the background holding stocks all along, will keep selling at those prices. It's a question of which army runs out of ammunition first.

    The whole thing is mad. Its like an online revolution against Wall Street.

    Can i ask, i use degiro , what exchanges do you currently buy on . I note that the Frankfurt exchange is fairly hefty on the transaction fees vs NYSE or similar.


    If you buy NYSE shares are you liable for any extra costs when selling the shares outside of the inevitable currency issues and CGT on profits ?

    the shares trade in 2 different currencies tough and dont necessarily follow the same trend or pace of trend.

    My basic understanding is when shorting shares they are "borrowed" from investment banks , financial institutions or similar for a period of time. The person shorting it believes the share price will go down before the expiration date. So they sell the shares at current market price but will buy them back and return to the lender at the expiration date. If the share price goes up before the expiration date then the short seller is liable for difference as they must return the shares at any cost essentially.

    I don't have any GME shares, and I am dead jealous of anyone who got in earlier on and held on to them - BUT - would the eventual crash of GME pyramid take down every stock as well?

    Is it safer to cash in TSLA etc for a few weeks and wait and watch..!

    I guess, nobody knows....

    I would say there's a chance market will dip a little ....I'm expecting market correction sooner...

    I know what shorting is, I was just wondering what the 139% bit is about.

    I got it all along. But the revolutionaries won't win, because the stock (GME) is worthless. That's why it was shorted so much, to begin with.

    It means that 139% of the float is sold short, in other words the equivalent of the entire float shares in GME plus 39%. This would seem to indicate that they were naked shorts, which is why the bloodbath for them has been quite so bad as it has.
