Isn’t it wild that this GameStop/retail trader shyt is getting wayyyyy more publicity and cause of concern then the damn capitol riots? :francis:
They said Biden team is watching GameStop closely as if it’s some potential terrorist threat. The media is making it sound like retail traders are hacking the apps and committing domestic terrorism. The SEC is already trying to come up with ways to put a end to this. But a damn plot to storm the capital and kill politicians
was mainly considered boys being boys.

I did look at NAKD a bit and asked my wife what she knew about it. She knows fashion a bit. She pointed out that there's a big gap that companies like Victoria's Secret left in the high-end-of-the-low-end space for ladies intimate-wear, so like "brand with a bit of cache to it, but still affordable for the regular women out there."

I like the brands that they've compiled/are partnered with, and at 2.21, it's sort of a no-brainer to buy and see where it goes. That's ninety bucks of my stimmy for forty shares that I have queued up for start of market tomorrow. Let's go on an adventure.

The scenes if they face harsher sentences than the rioters

if this was something like an IPOE then I could easily be patient cuz I can see the endgame there...I have nothing to fall back on in regards to AMC but hope...but I have no choice but to wait until tomorrow and see what happens
shyt, I said fukk it and bought 2 shares of GME. Have like 20 AMC? nothing insane if they both get rocked, but I have a feeling something big is brewing.............

For reference it was in the .40's in December

everything is relative...I bought 500 shares of AMC so I’m a little bit more “annoyed” with myself lol...talking it out on here is “therapeutic” tho...I’ll just have to see how it goes tomorrow

Do you mind breaking it down a little bit for some of us novices? I did a little reading when I first started looking into delving into options and I remember something about it being a like a guage of volatility or something like that.
Its a measure of volatility, doesn't necessarily mean markets will tank although it does have that correlation. It's useful as a hedge against long to mid term positions. For example I brought some vxx to hedge against my long term positions that I expect to go down along with the overall market. I expected these large moves downward because of the vix spike starting Monday and the gamma squeeze. That to me means the market makers need to rehedge and take control of the markets. This is a good summary.

Google squeeze metrics gamma and there's a good white paper on this subject.
