Hope y’all stocked up on AMC shares. There are two hours left, with the stock hovering just a few points shy of 8. If the market closed right now, a gamma squeeze would be triggered.

Just need to finish over 8 for possibly a big week next week
It doesn’t need over 8. Outstanding buys beneath 8 are still in the tens of millions. Someone calculated 20 million if we close at 7, as opposed to the 40 at 8. If we close at 10, it nears 60.

Wtf is a gamma squeeze?!?:wtf:
It’s basically a bet on a stock’s price that hedge funds have made in the form of options that pay out if the price is reached. So, right now, there are tens of millions of these in the 6-8 range, and hedge funds will be left holding the bag if they can’t drive the price down before today’s closing. If they don’t reach those prices, those options flood the market, creating a squeeze and driving the price up after those shares are forced to meet the ask of investors. This is just my layman’s understanding.
