The stock was shorted. That was the whole point of this. The hedge funds shorted it and were losing billions as they had to cover it. The higher the price went the most hedge funds lost.

Could they not ride it out ? Or is there a time limit on how king before they must buy it a trigger at what they buy at?

Sorry DutchYurt for posting this in last year's thread (Real facepalm moment on my side)- Ironically enough, I was just in there to see if anyone was still stupidly posting!

Can anyone explain to this mortal what problem the hedge fund companies have with what happened to GME? I mean so a Reddit forum pumps a stock price into oblivion. Why didn't they just stay away from the stock and continue with their daily business?

Haha all good, figured you'd get more traction here

Germans bought it at 350$ this morning and bought the price upto to $500 premarket so doubt they will be selling in the morning. They will be buying more to lower their average cost.

The after Hours trading price of the stock. So GME closed at 197 but up to 220 or so now.....does that mean if nothing changes between now and opening bell tomorrow the stock will open at 220 or is it entirely separate but gives an indication as to how the market will go on opening?

More of an indication but not always a good one.

Volume falls massively for pre market and after market trading, it's also not as affected by factors such as the overall market measures i.e. S&P500 (which opens at 14:30 our time) so on open things can change drastically

What people are saying isn't correct. What started the redditor investing in gamestop was he felt it was undervalued. The short squeeze idea came later

This isn't true again, a stocks gain in a day is measured from 9.30 - 4pm (EST).

Stock can be up 5% in pre market and open -5%.

I spotted New Concept Energy going up and up today. Got in at 7 and out at 9 when there was pullback.

Just looked at the closing price and its $25! Up from $2.30 this morning! Missed the boat there!

Word on Reddit is Robinhood is allowing buys tomorrow on GME, if that’s the case we may just be in the money.

The price paid on open (9.30) is the first price of the day. A stock won't open at the last after market price paid, it will open at the first open price paid.

Robinhood executes transactions through Citadel, apparently.

Citadel are the ones who backed Melvin Capital for $2.75B, which evaporated almost instantly.

What we saw today is literal market manipulation by a company that directly works with a party of interest.

And yet, GME survived this massive short attack. Bodes well for tomorrow. (I sold 95% of my position yesterday, and won't be buying in again. What I've left in is for fun. This is not advice to buy.)

There could still be a lot of uncovered shorts, hopefully there is but it sounds like Citadel have extended out their period for when their shorts would be due which means the real criminals in all this may not receive any of the pain if it really does come tomorrow.

So as I understand it Robinhood was going to be IPO'd soon.

After stopping buying GME/AMC today I can see loads of users leaving them.... meaning no point in ipo??

Who would use a platform that won't let you trade what you want to trade.

Anyone that sticks with them after this deserves them.

It really sounds like they were in between a rock and a hard place as they do a lot of business with Citadel, but it kinda exposes they dont really believe in what they preach so its hard to feel sorry for them.
