DRS and Computershare are criticized for their practices. Shares held by cede and Co can be lent out at their discretion, regardless of Computershare's claims. Gamestop's borrowing cost is 10 with 21 short interest, while AMC's is 1000 with 238 short interest. DRS is seen as a farce, allowing easy borrowing from cede and Co, owned by the DTCC. Many fell for the superstonk hype without doing their own research. Look into cede and Co instead of relying on Computershare. DRS is not an option for some.

@BossBlunts1 - The Butcher of Wall Street Marcel Kalinovic

DRS is trash as is Computershare. Those shares are held by cede and Co which can be lent out at their discretion regardless of what Computershare claims is happening in their brokerage. Take a look at Gamestop cost to borrow its around 10% with 21% short interest. In contrast look at AMC with +1000% cost to borrow at 23.8% short interest. DRS is a farce used to find easy to borrow share locates held on cede and Co books which is owned by the DTCC. THE DTC can do whatever they please with those shares. Too many people bought into the superstonk hype and didn't do their own due diligence. Fuck what Computershare says, go look into cede and Co. I have and I'll NEVER DRS my shares

The sentiment among $GME investors disappoints me. They mock others for irrationality but refuse rational conversations about GME. There's no evidence DRS helps the price or squeezes shorts. Options caused the Jan 2021 event, yet everyone is scared to use them. Investors lack understanding of market movements and rely on unproven strategies. We need a rational assessment and to use illiquidity to our advantage. Let's break the irrational fixed point and play the game to win.

@anon58007979614 - anon

I find the average sentiment of $GME investors deeply disappointing. While being perfectly happy to mock other meme investors for being irrational, the unwillingness to engage in a rational conversation about what is known and what is not when it comes to GME follows a similar logical pattern used by those being mocked. There is zero evidence DRS has done anything to help the price, nor is there evidence it will squeeze shorts (and let’s be honest that is what most are here for). Meanwhile we know for a fact options caused the event in jan2021 and was the reason the buy had to be shut off, yet everyone is scared to use them. Almost everyone i have engaged with does not understand how markets move, yet believes something with zero evidence will magically result in what they desire. They are missing the point of DRS, and are incorrectly scared to participate in the options market. I’d like for the #GME / #GameStop investor community to consider that they have converged on the wrong strategy to achieve their goals, and shift back to a rational assessment of the situation, rather than relying on or expecting something fundamentally unprovable to achieve their goals. I understand this is controversial to say to the community and many will choose to block me as they feel assaulted by my words, but given the DRS mania that reached popularity since last october i feel obligated to chime in and reignite a rational discussion about how price action actually evolves in the stock market. Saying the price is fake, manipulation, etc is a cop out, and a way of shirking the responsibility to understand what you are doing to achieve your goals. While GameStop balance sheet will improve and has been, you cannot linearly extrapolate the success to date moving forward, we are in a different monetary regime. Yes Cohen has done a good job so far, and this will likely cause institutions to buy it eventually, but you cannot claim #DRS has any effect other than reducing liquidity and counterparty risk. You should not rely on stories of hidden shorts, a lot can change in 3 years and everyone seems wholly convinced nothing has changed. Superstonk, like all subreddits, is a hive mind, and if the influential nodes in a network become convinced that something false is true and propagate that, the entire network devolves into irrationality. And if they simultaneously silence the ability to fact check, or cancel information at odds with the network consensus you get stuck in a fixed point of opinion which is not guaranteed to be optimal, let alone correct. I would like to make the claim that DRS has been sufficiently done, and that we should use the illiquidity it has afforded the stock to our advantage, by forcing market makers to buy through hedging mechanisms. To be clear, I want the community to be open to discussion about this, and fully expect it to be rejected by nonsense or emotional claims, but i feel it is worth bringing up to try to break the GME hyper-agent out of its irrational fixed point. If you are truly gamers, you need to play the actual game to win, not opt out of it. I will tag a few people here who i perceive to be influential in the hopes they help to move the conversation forward: @Cousin_Swen @VonZipperFace @ConwayYen @peruvian_bull @PlatnumSparkles @itswooch Below i will include a simplified toy model that (hopefully clearly) describes how market maker hedging works through the options market, and how this works in real life through the order book.

The DRS has eliminated shareholders' ability to generate income and caused bearish gamma squeezes. Pumping GME shares raised red flags. Reddit's mis/disinformation harmed retail investors. A data-driven approach cuts through narratives. Retail investors lost money on options and now ignore options activity. Unusual put activity warrants investigation. Capitalizing on opportunities is crucial. I agree with the concerns raised.

@ConwayYen - Conway

DRS has been one of the most egregious and malicious psyops I have ever had the displeasure of witnessing. It eliminated shareholders' ability and right to use their own assets to generate income for themselves while simultaneously providing a stabilizing hedging environment, the lack of which stocks such as $GME still suffer from to this day. This is a major reason why the stock is perpetually in bearish gamma squeezes, even now, despite a +7.58% day (hedging heatmap is still gamma squeeze orientation, even if dealer net delta/gamma is now positive). Having been invested in TSLA since mid-2019, prior to GME, I can tell you that I did make quite a nice amount of profit from TSLA but I never once heard anything about the need to directly register my TSLA shares. The fact that it was pumped so fervently for GME specifically was a giant red flag for me, and should have been for most other people as well, yet here we are. Reddit in general has done a lot of harm to the retail investors that could least afford to suffer the consequences of the mis- and disinformation spread on social media, whether it was done by bad actors or by ill-informed but passionate retail investors that didn't know any better. This is why I now stress a data-driven, quantitative approach, because the math cuts through all the bullshit and narratives that people may try to invent. Specifically, Reddit baited a lot of retail into yoloing options when times were good (2021 and earlier), lost them a lot of money when times stopped being so good (most of 2022) and now certain communities have such a strong aversion to options, they don't even seem to monitor options activity anymore to see how that activity may be affecting their long shares portfolios. For example, yesterday saw an unusual flood of Jan 2024 10P's that I noticed immediately, but chose to stay quiet on to see if anybody else would notice. To my predictable disappointment, I didn't see anybody say anything — not even the dedicated communities that supposedly stay vigilant and monitor this sort of thing. 1000 puts at the mid? Hundreds more at the bid? What's going on? Thousands in volume, isolated at that strike and expiry? That's unusual activity! It should warrant some investigation and discussion, no? This morning, CBOE updates the options chain and yesterday's activity shows up as a ton of new open interest. That's curious! If they're dealer long puts (they were) then it should be extreme bullish activity today (it did!) These opportunities are rare, so I like to capitalize on them whenever possible. Today, because of the way things worked out, my short puts are obviously green, my long calls are up like 80% or so, and even my covered calls are green because of the IV crush. Not trying to brag, I'm just saying that opportunities exist for those that haven't been beaten into a state of complacency. So I agree with anon. I too am disturbed.

Video Transcript AI Summary
We were close to a system failure on January 28th due to excessive short positions. If call options were exercised, 270 million shares would need to be delivered, but only 50 million existed. To prevent this, short positions should be published daily and brokers should charge 1% margin for every 1% of short interest to discourage shorting. Increasing margin requirements with short interest is key.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: Let's just start with a simple question. How close we were to this system breaking, something failing? How close were we, Thomas? Speaker 1: We were frighteningly close on on January 28th when, we had 50,000,000 registered shares. At the same time, we had 70,000,000 shares short and 150,000,000 150,000,000 shares short via short call options. So if the call options had been exercised, the shorts would have had to deliver 270,000,000 shares while only 50,000,000 shares existed. So as the rules are today, the loan broker has to if he can't get the shares, he has to go into the market and buy the shares at whatever the price is. So that could have pushed the price further up into the 1,000. When that happens, obviously, the shorts cannot pay up. So the brokers, they default on the brokers. The brokers default on the clearinghouse, and the the whole thing is a is a huge mess that's impossible to untangle. So there is a simple solution for this the way I see. Number 1, we would have to get the the short positions published once a day because we currently have it only twice a month. And second, we would, the SEC would have to require brokers to charge an additional 1% of margin, for every, 1% of short interest. And that would, then raise the margins progressively so high that people would stop shorting stocks. Speaker 0: So margin requirements would have to increase as short interest increases. That seems to be the view from you, Thomas.

GameStop's true DRS share count is being concealed, evident from the stagnant numbers for four consecutive quarters. Despite shares becoming cheaper to register, the count remains unchanged. This abnormal leveling off and flattening in the chart of outstanding shares indicates manipulation. The DTCC's altered language in July 2022, labeling reported numbers as "approximate," aligns with the fraudulent activities. The naked shorting is now glaringly evident, demanding an audit of the DTCC.

@RSKAGY - Ryan Ξ Kagy 🦇🔊

It's official. They are not allowing GameStop to report the true DRS share count. For 4 straight quarters, the DRS numbers have maxed out, not increased at all, after going from 0 to 80 million in the first year. But we all know for a fact that as the share price has dropped, registering shares has become cheaper and easier than ever before. This is clear as day now if you look at the chart of shares outstanding. What's that unnatural leveling off and flattening about? That doesn't happen in organic markets. The trend lines were all heading up at the same time, then suddenly we hit a maximum of allowable reportable shares in order to cover up the obvious naked shorting that has occurred. In July of 22 the language changed on the earnings report to make it clear that reported numbers by the DTCC were now "approximate", coinciding with the fraud being perpetrated beginning that month. The fraud is in broad daylight now for all to see. Audit the DTCC.

Did you know that every share of every stock is actually held by a private company called DTCC? And it turns out that company was at the heart of what happened and is still going on with GME. Conflicts of interest and SROs everywhere. Probably nothing… 🤔 https://t.co/oh3cqZM2Ey

Video Transcript AI Summary
Warren Buffett doesn't actually own any stocks, and neither do individual investors. All stocks are owned by the Depository Trust Company (DTC), a central private company. The DTC holds shares of publicly traded companies through its subsidiary, Seed and Company. Investors are given security entitlements by their brokers, but they are just beneficial owners, not actual owners. If a bank or brokerage fails, the secured creditors, like JPMorgan, have priority over the entitlement holders. Investors can directly register their shares to own them, but this option is not widely known. The GameStop community discovered this and started directly registering shares. However, GameStop faced restrictions in reporting this information, possibly due to being cut off from the transfer agent. Dark pool trading and suspicious market activities have also been observed.

Speaker 0: Do you know that Warren Buffett doesn't actually own any stocks? And neither do you. Because, actually, through a series of complex legal frameworks, all stocks are actually owned by this one company, the Depository Trust Company. They actually say so on their own website. All of their stocks total up to $87,100,000,000,000. They hold all the shares to all publicly traded companies on the stock exchange through their sort of low key subsidiary called Seed and Company, it's elaborated through a series of very complex laws and legal jargon by which you are given a security entitlement by your securities intermediary, I. E. Your broker. So the way the market actually works is 1 central private company owns every stock in the entire market, and they just give out certificates that give the rights to brokers to trade the shares, the brokers sell those certificates to give you the rights to beneficially own the shares. But you don't own them. You are just a beneficial owner as far as the law is concerned. And normally, that's no big deal. Normally, no one pays any attention to this unless a bank or brokerage blows up, kinda like what happened in 2008. And then it's the secured creditors that actually own the securities that get them, not you, the beneficial owner. JPMorgan actually strategically leveraged this as per the legal filings, the purpose of these last minute maneuvers was to leapfrog JPMorgan over other creditors by putting itself in the position of over collateralized creditor because in the case that a brokerage or other financial institution goes out of business, a claim of a creditor of a securities intermediary, I. E. The person that's fronting the money for the brokerage to operate has priority over claim of the security intermediaries, entitlement holders. Once again, the creditor like JP Morgan has priority over claims of the entitlement holders, I. E. You. So let's just say, for example, you were, you know, buying stocks with a certain trading app that sucks balls, and something were to happen that were to force them to go out of business or not have enough money to back up all of their liability. All of the stocks that you beneficially owned through that brokerage actually don't belong to you if they go insolvent and get cleared out, all of those assets technically belong to whoever is fronting the bill. I mean, who knows who's fronting the bill, but they've been slowly putting the system into place since the early 2000s, but it came back in a big way after 2021 when the GameStop community started to date and they realized that their brokers could be lending out their shares to short sellers without their permission. So like you go and buy shares of a company and you hold it in your brokerage account and you that you own those shares, but actually your brokerage is lending those shares out to people that are short selling those shares back against you to try to lower the price of the stocks that you're holding with your own shares. Yes, that is as backwards as it sounds. And what they discovered is that you're allowed to directly register your shares, meaning put them in your own name and take them out of that whole system, take them away from the DTC. But for some reason, companies are gag ordered and not allowed to tell you about this which is kinda weird. We'll go into why that might be in just a second here. I mean, it doesn't help that Robinhood said they had to turn off the buy button cause their clearing house, you know, the person that actually executes their trades told them they needed more collateral and stuff, but it turned out that their clearing house was the National Securities Clearing Corporation, which is a part of the DTC, you know, the private company that owns all the shares of every stock the market, and it doesn't help that the board of directors of this private company that owns all the shares of every stock in the market is run by people that have connections to every major financial institution in the world, not the least of which being this guy, Citadel Securities global head of operations actually wait, he's at both Citadel and Citadel Securities. That's not supposed to be allowed. But anyway, he's on the board of the DTC also, the company that is in charge of holding all of the shares for all the companies in the market and also in charge of the NSCC, which was clearing all the trades for the whole GameStop situation. Well, not not all the trades, but a significant portion of them. But don't worry. This is all regulated by the Financial Industries Regulatory Authority, FINRA, which is a self regulatory organization, meaning FINRA is not a governmental organization. Instead, it is a private organization populated by members of firms that consist of financial institutions that are being regulated. They're the ones that are supposed to be making sure no one's cheating and checking everyone's book, which is why it's great that their board of directors has the CEO and chairman of Vanguard on it. And this woman who's worked at the Fed as well as 2 of the big for financial consulting firms. Oh, and she's currently on the board of HSBC, one of the most corrupt banks in the world. Or this guy who did a bunch of time at Bank of America and is now an independent director at Freddie Mac. So anyways, where were we? Right. You don't own any stock, but the GameStop people realized that you can request to own the stock if you directly register. And they all started doing it and posting their purple circles on Reddit to brag about how many shares they had directly registered. And they started doing it by, like, hundreds of thousands of shares a day, millions of shares a day. They started their own little mini games where they were tracking how much of the entire company had been directly registered so far to be clear, no company this has never happened in any company before. This no one ever really directly registers their shares. No one ever saw the point in it. No one even knew it existed. But the GME community directly registered so many shares that GameStop started reporting on in their own SEC filing. These are snippets from each of their quarterly filings that I took out where they reported how many shares the GameStop investors had registered and it goes up and up and up. Here's a graph and there was other months before this where it was even lower. So it was just on this huge trajectory upwards, like registering the whole company. And then all of a sudden something really weird happened. And like right around here, for some reason, the GameStop was not allowed to tell anyone they had to start reporting their information differently as though they were being cut off from information from the transfer agent, kinda weird long story, not suspicious at all. Because it was around that time that we started to realize that pretty soon, GameStop investors were gonna own more than the number of shares that are supposed to exist, and we could confirm it because they are directly registered and there's no broker doing weird number things in between. So up until here, the the numbers were being reported to GameStop by their transfer agent, the ones holding the shares in our names. And after here, they started being reported only from the DTC. You know, these guys. But I just went on Reddit today, and people are still posting their purple circles like crazy. And just this month, this column right here shows you how much of the daily trading volume of GameStop shares occurred in dark pools off of the main exchange where prices can be a little, shall we say funny? I did the math and that's an average of 49% of all GameStop trades this month were executed in dark pools. Can't imagine why that has to happen 3 years later. Kinda reminds me of the time when the GameStop short interest dropped from 313% down to like 20%. That means that more than 3 times of the number of shares that exist had to get bought all in the course of a few days. But in the SEC zone report on the situation, they showed that short sellers buying back the stock shown in red bars here, while the price was at its highest was virtually non existent. It's a good thing we have all these self regulatory organizations that are staffed by industry insiders to help make the markets run so effectively and efficiently for everyone, you know, for everyone. Right?

The speaker discusses the concept of naked short selling in the stock market, where shares are sold that don't actually exist. They explain how this practice is used by big institutions and how it contributed to the GameStop situation in 2021. The speaker also highlights a pattern where failing companies are targeted by short sellers until they go bankrupt. They mention the role of consultancy firms and the potential profit for short sellers in these situations. The speaker then explains the concept of a short squeeze and how it affected GameStop. They suggest that short sellers are still trapped and unable to buy back the stock. The speaker concludes by mentioning the interconnectedness of the market and the creation of shares out of nothing.

Speaker 0: Did you know that the stock market is full of fake shares? As in shares that don't actually exist and were created from nothing? You probably have some of them in your account. Today, we're gonna learn what really happened to Blockbuster and Toys R Us and a couple other businesses. You're gonna learn what really happened with GameStop in 2021, and you're gonna learn why the entire stock market is based on fraud, allegedly. Because before the whole GameStop thing happened, The words naked short selling almost never got mentioned. And when someone did mention it, it was considered a conspiracy theory. But just It's like a lot of conspiracy theories. Things have changed a bit. I'm about to show you a clip of a senior banker at Morgan Stanley, given the dirt. At great personal risk, I might add. What inspired you to talk about it? Well, I think they're living, you know, they're they're all none. None. So if you're not familiar with what short selling is, When I buy a share of a stock, someone else is selling the share of the stock, right? And we agree on a price. Short selling is just a way to bet that the price will go down by borrowing a share from someone and you'll pay them back later. Then you sell it on the market, whatever price going right now. So if you think this stock is gonna go down, you borrow the share from someone here, you sell it at this price and you're right. And then later you buy it back And you close the trade out and you make money. The exact opposite as if you had bought the share here hoping to sell the share later when it was at a higher price. Exact opposite. Naked short selling is doing that, but you never even borrow a share. You just sell a share that did not exist before. Yes. That's as backwards as it sounds. But like you just heard the man say, a lot of the biggest institutions do this all the time. Like, you remember this guy that runs Citadel Securities? Well, this is them getting caught by FINRA for doing exactly that in 2020. Big legal jargon to say, selling something, failing to deliver it, and never having had any way to borrow. These are the kind of market mechanics that make GameStop have a 300% short interest, meaning three times the number of shares that are supposed to exist have been short sold leading into whatever happened in 2021. We'll come back to this in a second. There's a pattern here that's repeated with a number of very high profile businesses that have failed over the last couple decades, such as Sears. Something bad happens or the sentiment turns, their stock price starts to decline. The short sellers pile on. They get short sold and short sold and short sold until they go bankrupt. This was Circuit City. This was Pier 1 Imports, and this was Blockbuster, one of the first ones in this pattern. There's another side to this too. Because when a company is failing like this. They almost always hire a consultancy firm to try to help turn the business around. They charge exorbitant fees for, shall we say questionable advice? And that's exactly what happened at GameStop while they were getting hammered and short sold and hammered and short sold. And And eventually, they hired Boston Consulting Group to come and help turn the company around. But when Ryan Cohen took over shortly before the whole thing happened, the first thing he did was fire Boston Consulting group and then sue them because he knew what was going on. Because the consultancy group gets paid either way. If the business fails, they still get paid. And all the short sellers, if the business goes into bankruptcy and ceases to exist, they never even have to buy back the stock at all, and they get 100% pure profit on all of those totally above board short sales, tax free. And from the looks of things, GameStop was about to become another blockbuster or another Sears. This is Ken Griffin who runs Citadel hanging out with his buddy, who it's worth mentioning before he ran a bookstore out of his garage and whatever whatever, He also worked in hedge funds before that, and you better believe these 2 guys know everyone in the industry, including at the consultancy firms. So So GameStop was on its way down to 0, just like a lot of companies before then. And then something crazy happened. Because the thing about short selling is it's actually really dangerous Because you're betting on the price going down, but the price can go up as much as there's no limit on how much price can go up. So your potential loss is infinite. And when you short sale, the only way to get out of that trade is to buy back the stock that you short sold. And the problem is that buying the stock makes the price go up. This is why a short squeeze can happen. Because if there's a lot of short sellers that have been short selling a stock and then it starts to go up. All the short sellers need to close those positions. And right before the GameStop thing happened, 300% short interest is insane. Usually, short squeezes happen with, like, 20% short because they don't exist. The GameStop community had officially caught the short sellers in the act, and they had them by the balls. And in the SEC's own report, the red bars that show short sellers buying back the stock clearly showed that short sellers did not close. If they had tried to buy back 300% of the shares, the price would have gone a lot higher than it did. But this is data from One of the biggest retail brokerages in the United States of a normal month of GameStop trading, showing that green is how many people are buying and red is how many people are selling. And it's been like this ever since 2021 every month. And the blue line is the price going down with all this buying happening. And these 2 guys that were probably pretty hyped on the biggest video game retailer in the world going out of business because who knows who benefits from that, They probably aren't quite feeling that way anymore about it, which is probably why we had paid ads saying that they closed. Probably why the Internet got filled with bots spamming identical messages about how everyone needs to get out because the stock is so bad. Probably why GameStop stock prices has been crazier than my girlfriend ever since. And it might help explain why in December of 2023, almost Half of GameStop trades happen in dark pools. And still today, about half of the trades are short sales. Because when you have exerted enough short selling pressure over many years to drive the stock down to this degree, to the point where short sales are reported at 300% of the float. You might not have any way out. Buying back this much stock would bankrupt you, and there has been ample evidence ever since that they are still trapped. And that's why all the GameStop people are still holding because they can kick the can a lot, but they can't get out unless they buy the stock back. And there's a lot more rich people than just these 2 guys who are on the hook here. Think about what we've learned this year about how tied together the market is by leverage and swaps. Remember what that man said at the start? All the prime lenders do it every day. And by it, I mean, create shares out of nothing and sell them counterfeit into the market. Now there is a lot more to the story than what I was able to fit into this short video. A lot more evidence of fuckery and a lot of very complex ways for them to hide their trades. But one thing's reserved, no one's selling.

In a series of posts, the author discusses the presence of bad actors in positions of authority and the need for transparency. They highlight the connection between Jeffrey Epstein and the stock market, alleging that he ran blackmail operations involving prominent figures. The author also claims that Ghislaine Maxwell controlled popular sub-Reddits on Reddit and collected data on retail investors for shorting hedge funds. They argue that retail investors unknowingly contribute to shorting their own investments through synthetic shares. The author suggests that hedge funds mismanage funds and engage in illegal activities. They also mention a mounting RICO case and the involvement of fake DD writers and shill agents on Reddit. The author accuses Dr Eyeball, a moderator on r/BBBY, of manipulating discussions and attempting to control various sub-Reddits. They question the motives behind the deletion of r/PPSeedsShow and the move to r/Teddy. The author concludes by hinting at an upcoming storm and urges readers to stay prepared.

@edwinbarnesc - edwinbarnesc

Sunlight Is The Best Disinfectant Throughout this saga, there have been many bad actors and they are still among us. They continue to hold positions of authority, on manufactured credibility, and propped up reputation. These bad actors continue to rub shoulders with respected community members and some knowingly participate, while others turn a blind eye. Now, I have tried to avoid this, but I see that without addressing it then this community cannot unite. I only offer supporting evidence from my discoveries. Remember, you chose to continue and pursue the truth so I will deliver. However, I will say one thing: it will bring peace of mind for many to see where certain allegiance is placed. To start, Reddit is a swamp that must be drained. The Humiliation brought on by Jeffrey Epstein, convicted pedophile, and his list of pedophiles which names many prominent figures is at the center of what's wrong with the world today. Epstein is directly related to the stock market and explains why your favorite stock has been naked shorted into a cellar box. (This will make sense in a moment) For those out of the loop, Epstein was an intelligence agent working for Israel's MOSSAD (with direct ties to CIA) and he ran blackmail operations on the world' elites, royalty, celebrities, presidents, and Congress, involving kidnapped children for sex trafficking. This is all public information now. Ghislaine Maxwell was Epstein's handler and she was the real one pulling the strings. She learned from her father, Robert Maxwell, who ran a media empire and was a super-spy for MOSSAD. In a detailed post, it was discovered that Ghislaine Maxwell ran an account on Reddit where she controlled a majority of all popular sub-Reddits under the moniker u/MaxwellHill. She was also the first user in Reddit history to reach 1 million karma and not by accident. Here's the sauce: https://x.com/SamParkerSenate/status/1742933840585502810?s=20 This explains for the popular GameStop forum r/Superstonk, the moderators like Platnum Sparkles, and Satori bot that collects information about unsuspecting investors, due diligence, and market sentiment. The data collected is then sent to the shorting hedge funds to anticipate what retail investors will do, on any given day, and at any time. The early moderators of Superstonk let slip that they were involved in some intelligence circles, which now makes sense (see the Highlight post on my X profile). Superstonk is a honeypot and Ryan Cohen has illustrated that in http://Teddy.com books. In GMERICA part 6, I revealed how Fidelity shorted GameStop and knew exactly when to turn it off. Strange, right? They always know when to short your stock, because retail investors provide the information via honey pot. And do you recall the endless stock option posts that would pump before each hype date? I used to defend stock options and even played some of those until I figured it out myself, but no more. They pump, monitor Reddit, then rug pull and generate liquidity to keep shorting. What makes it worse is when retail investors do not direct register shares, because every buy order for a share that is placed through a broker generates a phantom share, or commonly known as a synthetic share. These synthetic shares are estimated to be in the billions for $GME and $BBBYQ, and the process enables failure-to-deliver shares, continuous net settlement can-kicking, and merciless naked shorting. Their goal is to never close their short position, and to drive a company into bankruptcy thus cellar box. Basically, retail is helping short its own investment unless they enter the Direct Registration System with Book-Entry form (learn http://whyDRS.org). That is a fact, and why the SEC has officially confirmed shares held at brokerage are in street name which basically means you don't actually own your shares until you DRS. At some point, you must have wondered, if they were shorting your beloved stock and making profit then where was the money going? It's easy, just follow the money. Or look at it this way, where do hedge funds get their money? Last I recall, Michael Jordan was forced to sell his stake in Charlotte Hornets basketball team because Gabe Plotkin, using Jordan's money, mismanaged it trying to short GameStop with $7 Billion in total losses. And how about all those tracked flights that Ken Griffin took to the lands of sovereign wealth and oligarchs? Celebrities, politicians, billionaires, sovereign wealth funds, and Epstein. It is all connected to GameStop, but more specifically, shorting companies into a cellar box. Now the tides have turned with Bed Bath & Beyond, the ultimate anti-cellar boxing and reverse uno squeeze play. In part 6, I showed evidence of a mounting RICO case that is being backed by the Department of Justice. In a RICO case, anyone found guilty, including co-conspirators like shills will forfeit their shares and face the crime. Talking about shills, there was a fake DD writer named Neelay Das that rose to prominence on r/BBBY and is currently attempting to stall Bed Bath & Beyond from emerging out of chapter 11 courts. What's interesting about Neelay Das is that he worked for Aricent/Altran which merged with Capgemini, a member of World Economic Forum or WEF, the same folks that said you'll own nothing and be happy. That information about Neelay Das is available from his public profile on LinkedIn (although he might scrub it after this). Time and again, these fake DD writers and shill agents have worked ruthlessly across Reddit in all major stock forums that Ryan Cohen has invested into by controlling narrative, shaping public opinions, and turning the community against each other. Needless to say, they even attempted to recruit me, and on more than one occasion. Last time was through Dr Eyeball, the current moderator of r/BBBY, a shill infested swamp for Bed Bath & Beyond discussion. Dr Eyeball made a power move to control all Bed Bath & Beyond sub-Reddits, because he is motivated to gather data to report back to his shorting hedge fund friends on how to counter the Activist Affiliates. Neelay Das used parts from my due diligence in his court battle against Bed Bath & Beyond, and now it's logged in the court dockets. Dr Eyeball has coerced several Reddit users that were moderators of r/Teddy, r/Bobbystock, and many more to give up control to him. Dr Eyeball has been very deliberate about his desire to control, consolidate, and manipulate. This has led to the deletion of the popular BBBY sub-Reddit r/PPSeedsShow since the sub was a rogue forum board not under the direct control of a shill operative. Upon deleting r/PPSeedsShow they have invited ex-members to r/Teddy which is now under control of Dr Eyeball. Which begs the question: who supported the move to r/Teddy? That should reveal a lot, and Pulte knows, which means Ryan Cohen knows. Nothing is what it seems, initially. The Storm is coming. Are you buckled up? 🕳️….🐇

Some tradfi bros disagree with me, but they're wrong! Let's talk about $GME, DRS, and the morality of markets. The GME phenomenon isn't just angry retail investors, it's about squeezing big whales. The SEC admits retail caused the volatility. Shorting over 100% is abusive. Liquidity isn't everything, and phantom shares shouldn't exist. There are examples of manipulated markets. DRS doesn't improve things. Hedge funds shouldn't force outcomes on companies. The markets are broken. Rules are unfair. They keep getting away with it because the damage is widespread. I believe in the fundamentals of Gamestop and will continue to hold.

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

some tradfi bros like @ConwayYen disagree with a lot of what I say. since they are intelligent, their points are worth considering. but they are WRONG! Time for a thread on $GME, DRS, and the morality of markets. 🧵⚡️👇

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen As someone who went to college, got degrees in finance and economics, and went to work in corporate fintech I understand these people. What the Gamestop Apes say sounds ridiculous. We were taught that markets are efficient. Regulators are good.

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen These facts were pounded in our heads so often that we developed rationalization mechanisms to explain why things happened. On the face, the GME phenomenon seems like a bunch of angry, uninformed retail investors who want to shake their fist at a system they do not understand.

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen The truth is, the tradfi bros who speak like this do not understand $GME and were not there during the runup. What they understand is what they've heard in the media- what they were told. And they filter the world through their own biases that the market is "always right"

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen To them, the GME fiasco was an overly shorted company that got a bunch of retail attention, and the shorts covered, and now these investors are bitter and angry at the system and wished they had made more money. But this isn't the truth!

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen In fact, the SEC themselves admitted as much in a report released in October 2021. The massive volatility and price swings in Gamestop in January was a result of retail buying, not of short covering. https://www.sec.gov/files/staff-report-equity-options-market-struction-conditions-early-2021.pdf

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen The SEC admits that this was retail, and perhaps other institutions, who wanted to squeeze some big whales who got caught with their pants down. See that last sentence- very telling!

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen Whatever the reason, we remember in real time what was happening- as the stock price went up, a cacophony of media began to sound about the "stupidity" of retail and why this squeeze was never going to work

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen This psyop continued, to the point that Ortex who published short interest data CHANGED they way they calculated it, since many retail investors saw the 140% SI and aped in. https://www.reddit.com/r/FWFBThinkTank/comments/wbo3de/reminder_reported_short_interest_si_will_never/

From the FWFBThinkTank community on Reddit 363 votes, 26 comments. Short Interest Reporting is now calculated differently GME Borrow Fees Shorts never closed - they covered through… reddit.com

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen But the 140% wasn't even the true number. some FINRA data feeds had the number above 220% https://t.co/8LAY9AXVF7

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen And as @Cancelcloco points out, even others had the SI at 313%! https://t.co/uwJ3GHrBEl

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen @Cancelcloco This begs the question- to what extent does shorting become abusive? Over 100% short interest means by definition that not every short has a locate, because by that logic you would would only be able to short the float once over and then run out of borrows.

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen @Cancelcloco And this is the issue. @ConwayYen claims that "phantom or real it doesn't matter" because shares are fungible. This is illogical on its face. The entire point of buying a share in a company is that you believe you are getting a piece of ownership in it- https://t.co/gOdxs7vO1M

@ConwayYen - Conway

The reality is that markets have evolved far beyond this quaint notion of phantoms vs "real" shares. Shares are fungible. DRS does nothing to stop the creation of phantoms that trade on the market, completely ignoring shareholders that were actually led to believe that DRS was supposed to do something. GME is a great example of this. All of the frankly suspicious and egregious pushes to DRS as a means to halt shorting in the hopes of a rising share price have not done anything to stop the descent of share prices instead. We are now at a point where price is testing the lows from before DRS was even on a typical household investor's radar. All DRS has really done is to distract the household investing public from a major source of real price discovery: dealer flows, and the hedging thereof. Incidentally, DRS has also robbed retail investors of the ability and right to use shares they've already purchased with their hard-earned money to provide stabilizing hedging forces and liquidity (dealer long delta and gamma, organic ask, bids below spot). This is a major reason why retail-heavy stocks end up being so unhealthy and illiquid. Try telling a market maker that DRS will stop them from doing their job. They will laugh in your face if they even bother to respond.

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen @Cancelcloco You believe in the fundamentals, and you want to see the company succeed. The company has a limited number of shares authorized, so if more and more market participants view the company as valuable and buy, then prices go up. Too bad, so sad for the shorts!

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen @Cancelcloco Instead, imagine if Conway bought a share of Apple. Let's say Apple has 100 shares. But instead of buying a real share, he buys it from me. I am a new broker- PB Brokerage! I create a naked short, out of thin air, and sell it to you. Now, there are 101 shares out there

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen @Cancelcloco I provided you "liquidity" in the form of a new share that you wanted right away, but I also de facto diluted the share count of the company. With more shares trading, the stock price doesn't move. The company, which would have seen higher prices and could get the option to ...

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen @Cancelcloco raise equity now does not have that option. and the broker, me, gets to pocket the money! Pretty neat ain't it? So you pay money to buy a share, and the company doesn't benefit, and the stock doesn't go up, and therefore the fundamentals don't improve.

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen @Cancelcloco Tradfi bros want to sacrifice everything on the altar of liquidity. Is liquidity really everything? ake the argument to the extreme- allow infinite share creation of every stock. allow infinite money to buy the stocks. would the prices be representative of anything?

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen @Cancelcloco clearly not! so why then, is everyone so focused on liquidity. why are FTDs allowed to such a large extent within our markets- again, by definition, a stock shorted over 100% means there are phantom shares out there? if markets are efficient, why do we need phantom shares?

@ConwayYen @Cancelcloco There are countless examples- but another is Global Links, a Nevada based real estate company. An investor bought 111% of the float and moved the shares into his brokerage, cash account. 50 million shares traded the next two days. https://t.co/1PaxdjufZ3

In March 2005, the senate banking committee questioned SCC chairman William Donaldson about Global Links, a real estate company. An investor bought $5,000 of stock, acquiring all 1,100,000 shares available. Despite no shares to borrow, over 50,000,000 shares were traded in 2 days. Another investor bought 1,282,050 shares, exceeding the total issued shares by 111%. This raised concerns about abusive naked short selling in small companies.

Speaker 0: In March 2005, the senate banking committee confronted then SCC chairman William Donaldson with a story about Frank De Brookey's company, the Nevada based real estate holding company Global Links. An investor named Robert Simpson had set out to prove that small companies were indeed frequent targets of abusive naked short sellers. Simpson placed an order for $5,000 worth of stock in Global Links that got Simpson ownership of all 1,100,000 Global Link shares in the market. Not some of them, all of them. Speaker 1: There were no shares available to be borrowed, and yet in 2 days, there were over 50,000,000 shares traded. That's clearly something that needs needs work. Speaker 0: I was absolutely blown away when I bought 1,282,050 shares, which equated to 111% of the issued and outstanding.

@ConwayYen @Cancelcloco this is one example of many - if you like, I can find dozens of companies that this has happened to. and the "derivative" argument is equally wrong. why should derivatives be allowed to trade if the underlying isn't even circulating?!

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen @Cancelcloco Conway thinks I'm ragebaiting people. I see it the other way- there is a massive grift going on in the market, and I am calling it out. Along with others. Is there a crime that you would get angry about, @ConwayYen ? What would that be? https://t.co/CYhvSk8Zox

@ConwayYen - Conway

not at all because it works both ways. that's literally how the derivatives market works. the price of stocks get driven down "unfairly" when there is a complete absence of response from the side that would rather not see prices get driven down. DRS makes it worse, not better!

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

Some people say, look, DRS hasn't moved the price, GME has trended down! umm, that proves our point. that the market is fraudulent. we are removing real shares from the DTC, and buy pressure is still high, and yet prices trend down. they changed short interest calculation

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen @Cancelcloco ... for a reason! Finance PhDs like @lawsondt used to be on the side of @ConwayYen ... until he saw the Brazilian puts amounting to 70% of the float appear on bloomerg and then disappear a day later. they claimed it was a glitch https://t.co/dfUna0tSjr

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen @Cancelcloco @lawsondt markets exist to provide capital to companies to fuel innovation and economic growth. they are not ends in and of themselves. the entire point of them is utility for other things! perhaps you need to buy a house. maybe compound your money for college.

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen @Cancelcloco @lawsondt hedgefunds should not be able to use derivatives to force outcomes on companies. Imagine if I went and took out an insurance policy on a tradfi bro's house. and then I paid an arsonist to burn it down. and collected the money. is that a free and fair market? No!

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen @Cancelcloco @lawsondt But yet, when we talk about excessive naked shorting, the counterarguments abound for "liquidity", "operational efficiency", "derivatives" etc These are not ends in and of themselves. they are supposed to serve a purpose. and that purpose is forgotten.

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen @Cancelcloco @lawsondt The markets are fundamentally broken. $55 billion of ECP was waived over the course of the "sneeze". does that sound fair? why can't I get a margin exclusion when my trade goes the wrong way? https://t.co/LWlubhH0Rz

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen @Cancelcloco @lawsondt Rules for me, not for thee. since the damage caused by things like naked shorting and inflation is ephemeral and ubiquitous, it is hard for tradfi bros to grasp it. well, they only stole 1% of everyone's wealth this year, so I didn't really feel it!

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen @Cancelcloco @lawsondt this is why they can keep this up for so long. if instead they came to your house and robbed you directly, you would think very differently!

@peruvian_bull - Peruvian Bull

@ConwayYen @Cancelcloco @lawsondt I do not pretend to know what happens if a stock is 100% DRSed. I do not pretend to know when shorts will close. I just know that the fundamentals for Gamestop look good, much better that the stock price, and I will continue hodlng! (//END).

People are being urged to think for themselves as enemies allegedly took over Superstonk on Reddit, causing everyone to move shares out of brokerages and divert attention from what Burry saw. The focus is on margin, not shares, as issues with RH and Apex stem from margin requirements. DRs alleviate margin collateral.

The lack of updated DRS values for $GME may be due to the potential collapse of the NSCC if accurate data were released. Currently, we are in zone 1, where the burden is manageable. However, entering zone 2 could disrupt the NSCC continuous net settlement process. Surpassing the 60% mark could signal the endgame. The plot assumes 1 billion shares in circulation, and the derivatives curve remains the same regardless of the actual number of shares.

@noctis_research - Noctis Research

$GME 💥💥💥 This might explain why we're not seeing actual updated DRS values. If accurate data were released, every quant on Wall Street would recognize that the NSCC could be on the verge of collapsing. As we are somewhere in zone 1, the exponential burden has not reached unbearable levels yet. However, if we were to enter zone 2, the exponential burden would become too significant not to disrupt the NSCC continuous net settlement process. Once we surpass the 60% mark, it could signal the endgame. *This plot assumes 1 billion shares in circulation. **The derivatives curve is the same regardless of the actual number of shares in circulation.

There’s no such thing as a “meme stock” If there was- retail trades wouldn’t go 90% to dark pools and three years of constant buying and DRSing would have made the price go up, not down. Shorts never closed. https://t.co/NE6KtX6IwH

Video Transcript AI Summary
The term "meme stocks" refers to manipulated stocks tied together through complex financial dealings. Bill Hwang's firm, Archegos, imploded due to trading meme stocks with hidden risks. This led to Credit Suisse's downfall, requiring a bailout for UBS. Meme stocks, like GameStop, saw unusual price fluctuations despite retail investor activity. This volatility is attributed to large capital actors manipulating prices through various means, causing irrational market behavior. The term "meme stock" aims to divert attention from these anomalies.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: Now let's talk about this term meme stocks. Right? You know, the word they invented to describe all these stocks that act really weird, obviously, all because of you buying because of social media. You and your $20 totally moves markets. And then they use that term meme stock to sort of precondition your mind when they're reporting on it to think of them as some special type of stock. And then they lie to you by telling you things like have been in a persistent and largely uninterrupted decline. Yeah. Persistent and largely uninterrupted, except for that day and that day and that day and that day. See, what this term meme stock refers to is a basket of highly manipulated stocks that are all tied together through very complex financial things behind the scenes that for a long time, the GameStop community was only speculating about until out of nowhere one day, this firm called Archegos, run by Bill Huang, just blew the fuck up. Basically imploded overnight on 1,000,000,000 and 1,000,000,000 of dollars worth of trade. And when we started to analyze why he blew up, it's because he was trading all kinds of meme stocks and other investments in swap baskets back and forth using all these super complex derivatives to hide the value of his true positions. So the counterparties he was trading with didn't know how much risk he had open, and the SEC didn't know what the hell was going on. And you got to remember, markets take like these trades take a long time to move. Like, a lot of these things are 1 year contracts, multiyear contracts. And so, you know, the GameStop play was never gonna be short. And when Bill Hwang blew up, it took a whole year before his counterparty Credit Suisse had to pay the bill, and they couldn't. So Credit Suisse blew up. They are no more. UBS was forced to take on Credit Suisse. I don't think they wanted to. Now UBS needs a bailout. This is from what? April of 2024? Yeah. Keep UBS in your prayers. They're gonna need it. And they don't just hide these things with swaps. They also short ETFs and do all sorts of shady ETF stuff. Like ETFs are where you put a basket of stocks into a fund, and then you can buy a piece of the fund. And, somehow, this one is the one that contains a lot of GameStop shares. It just happens to be at, like, 600% short interest back in 2021. Probably just a coincidence. All the while for, like, the last 3 years, you can see how many retail investors are buying and selling any given stock on a platform like Fidelity because they publish those numbers. This is one day per bar. Green is the percent that are buying, and red is the percent that are selling of regular people like you and me. This is just an average month over the last 3 years, July. It's like 80% buying every single day. But during this time, the stock price went down from what $2.10 or so down to $160 or so. Cause you know, when everyone's buying, that's when stock prices go down. Except if meme stocks were being crazy because of our trades making the market fluctuate like crazy, then when we're all buying, wouldn't that make the price go up? I mean, it's almost like there are some actors out there in the markets that have massive amounts of capital and the ability to manipulate prices through various nefarious means that can make it so that the prices of these meme stocks don't actually do what retail buying pressure implies they would do. I mean, if 2021 actually was just what it was and all the shorts covered and closed and they were all gone and it went all back to normal, why has the stock acted like a meme stock ever since? I mean, this is just my opinion, and this is just speculation based on, like, some evidence. But I mean, probably because the shorts never closed because they couldn't afford to. And when you have a highly shorted stock manipulated by all kinds of crazy swaps and baskets and ETF, all this crazy shit, You get all kinds of bizarre volatility that makes no rational sense if you look at it through fundamental regular market mechanics. And that's why we have this term, meme stock, to make it so you don't think too hard about why are these stocks doing this.

On April 30, 2024, I checked the $GME swap records and noticed a troubling pattern: 114 transactions executed simultaneously with varying prices and notional amounts. It's baffling how they can manage 100 swaps at once under these conditions. This situation echoes the flaws Dr. David Ruder discussed, impacting the company significantly. Reflecting on this third busy swap day, I feel exhausted and saddened. A wise friend once reminded me that overanalyzing can take the joy out of life. If you want to understand these swaps, watch "The Big Short" and take notes—it's a task I can help with.

GameStop's saga reveals a deep financial manipulation, where short interest exceeded the float, leading to massive fails-to-deliver and synthetic shares. Despite overwhelming evidence of naked shorting and regulatory inaction, retail investors fought back by registering shares directly, locking away over 76 million. The system remains opaque, with trades shifting to dark pools and derivatives obscuring true exposure. Upcoming regulatory changes could expose these practices, but the risk of systemic collapse looms if shorts must reconcile. The fight for accountability continues.

@MorgenHatton - MD

🚨 THEY DIDN’T JUST SHORT GAMESTOP. THEY COUNTERFEITED THE ENTIRE MARKET. This is the forensic breakdown Wall Street didn’t want you to see. Here’s how GameStop exposed the biggest financial cover-up of our time and why the system still hasn’t recovered. Like and repost before this vanishes. They don’t want this thread reaching the masses. Too much truth. Too much proof. Let the world see what they tried to bury. 📢🧾 $GME It’s time to lay it all out. Buckle up. This is the thread. 🧵👇

@MorgenHatton - MD

Start here: In Jan 2021, GameStop’s short interest hit 140% of the float. That’s not supposed to be possible. It means more shares were shorted than actually existed. This wasn’t a glitch.

@MorgenHatton - MD

Enter: Fails-to-Deliver (FTDs) When a seller fails to deliver shares after a sale, it’s recorded as an FTD. GME had millions of these daily during the squeeze. That’s not speculation. That’s official data proof of massive naked shorting.

@MorgenHatton - MD

Naked shorting = share counterfeiting. Selling shares without borrowing them and not delivering means you’re injecting fake supply into the market. GameStop stayed on the NYSE threshold list for 39 straight days. It should’ve triggered forced buy-ins. It didn’t. Why?

@MorgenHatton - MD

Because enforcement was suspended. Because the real squeeze hadn’t just begun it was working. Retail wasn’t selling. Price was exploding. Shorts were cornered. That’s when they pulled the plug.

@MorgenHatton - MD

On Jan 28, 2021, brokers like Robinhood disabled BUY orders for GameStop. You could sell, but you couldn’t buy. It killed the momentum. The price collapsed. FTDs vanished. The short sellers? They got out. Or so it seemed.

@MorgenHatton - MD

But the trades didn’t stop. They just moved to the shadows. Over 70% of GameStop trades shifted to dark pools and off-exchange venues. Internalized, fragmented, hidden. And those trades were led by the usual suspects: Citadel. Virtu. Jane Street.

@MorgenHatton - MD

Example: Citadel traded 252 million GME shares OTC in one quarter while holding only ~200,000 shares. They shorted supply into the market they themselves controlled. They were exempt from borrow rules. A license to print synthetic shares.

@MorgenHatton - MD

Post-squeeze, something strange happened: Reported short interest plummeted. FTDs dropped. But put option exposure exploded to the point that puts covered 300% of GME’s float. The short didn’t go away. It just moved to derivatives.

@MorgenHatton - MD

Here’s how they hid it: 🔹 Deep ITM calls 🔹 Married puts 🔹 Total return swaps 🔹 ETF shorting These instruments created synthetic shorts that don’t show up in public short interest reports. The system obscured its own shadow.

@MorgenHatton - MD

Meanwhile, retail fought back the only way it could: By registering shares directly. DRS removes shares from brokerages locking them from being lent or shorted. To date, over 76 million shares of GME have been DRS’d. That’s >25% of the float untouchable.

@MorgenHatton - MD

Still… 🔸 Short interest remains elevated 🔸 FTDs resurface cyclically 🔸 Reported ownership exceeds float 🔸 Short volume >50% daily Retail now holds. Shorts hide. Price discovery is choked out by synthetic supply.

@MorgenHatton - MD

Here's the breaking point: Imagine if every short had to cover. Every synthetic had to unwind. Every naked position had to buy real shares. The system would fracture. Brokers would default. Firms would collapse. Wall Street would burn 🔥

@MorgenHatton - MD

The regulators? The SEC knew. The DTCC knew. Congress held hearings. But no one forced buy-ins. No one halted the fraud. Instead, they fined Citadel $10,000. Token fines. No accountability.

@MorgenHatton - MD

What do we know? ✅ GME was shorted beyond float ✅ FTDs flooded the market ✅ Synthetic shares were created ✅ Price was suppressed ✅ Derivatives were used to hide exposure ✅ The buy button was removed when it mattered most That’s not a meme. That’s a cover-up.

@MorgenHatton - MD

This wasn’t just about GameStop. It’s a blueprint for how entire markets are manipulated: •Phantom shares •Dark pool rerouting •Payment-for-order-flow conflicts •Regulatory capture The mechanics of control laid bare.

@MorgenHatton - MD

The most dangerous part? It’s still happening. GameStop is the canary in the coal mine. If shorts are ever forced to reconcile If synthetic shares ever have to be delivered the entire system cracks open. They know it. We know it. Tick. Tock. 💥

@MorgenHatton - MD

So will it ever be forced to unwind? Surprisingly… maybe. Because 2025–2026 is a ticking time bomb for the entire market structure. Here’s why 👇

@MorgenHatton - MD

🚨 The Regulatory Reckoning Is Coming There are 3 massive changes on the horizon: 🔹 Rule 13f-2: Institutional short positions (even synthetic) must be disclosed Live by Q4 2025 🔹 CAT Amendments: Will expose market-maker exemptions and short manipulation Due late 2025 🔹 Reg SHO Overhaul Petition: Would mandate pre-borrows, kill naked shorting, and end the MM loophole expected by 2026 If these are enforced? The ghost shares will be cornered.

@MorgenHatton - MD

Imagine what happens when: •They can’t hide synthetic shorts in puts •Every FTD triggers a penalty •Market-makers lose their exemptions •Swaps and dark pool games are exposed •Real delivery is required… It won’t just break the dam. It’ll break the system.

@MorgenHatton - MD

Retail didn’t forget. They logged every FTD. DRS’d every share. Reverse-engineered every loophole. Because we were never just here for a squeeze. We were here for the receipts.

@MorgenHatton - MD

This wasn’t a glitch. It was a leak in the simulation. They sold shares they didn’t own. We bought them. Held them. Locked them away. Now? Every fake share is a ticking time bomb. 💣

@MorgenHatton - MD

@MorgenHatton - MD

@pemamethor @ryancohen @larryvc @SEC The SEC? At best overwhelmed. At worst complicit. They watched it happen. FTDs piled up. Synthetic shares flooded the market. And instead of enforcement, we got silence. The real oversight? Came from retail. Line by line. Share by share. Receipts in hand.

@MorgenHatton - MD

Yes, the facilitation of this entire scheme relies on a network of regulatory loopholes, financial instruments and systemic opacity. Here's a breakdown of how they're doing it: 🧩 1. Market Maker Exemption Designated market makers (like Citadel) are allowed to short without a locate under the guise of providing liquidity. This allows them to: •Create synthetic shares on demand •Reset FTD clocks by “rolling” locates •Delay delivery without penalty It’s legal counterfeiting dressed up as “market function.” 📦 2. Fails-to-Deliver (FTDs) as a Settlement Strategy Instead of delivering shares, some participants intentionally fail to deliver using FTDs as a tool to synthetically satisfy settlement obligations. This: •Keeps supply artificially high •Suppresses price pressure •Avoids triggering margin calls or buy-ins And the SEC rarely enforces it unless it’s blatant. ⚖️ 3. Options Abuse & Deep ITM Calls By exercising deep in-the-money call options, market makers can create synthetic long positions without buying real shares. This: •Creates a façade of ownership •Avoids upward price impact •Buys time to manage exposure Used strategically, this suppresses visible demand. 🕳 4. Dark Pools & Off-Exchange Internalization Trades are routed off lit exchanges where price discovery is suppressed. Internalizers can: •Fill retail orders with internal inventory •Never expose real demand to the market •Delay price impact or absorb sell pressure Your buy never hits the real tape. 🔄 5. Swaps, ETFs & Derivatives for Synthetic Exposure They layer hidden exposure through: •Total return swaps •Leveraged ETFs •Basket trades These avoid disclosure rules and sidestep reporting requirements. The short doesn’t show up on official data but the pressure is real. 🛑 6. Regulatory Arbitrage & Rule Delays Rules like Rule 13f-2 and CAT were delayed for years, allowing firms to operate without scrutiny. Even now, full short reporting isn't due until Feb 2026. They've gamed the system longer than most retail has been invested. They’re not just shorting stocks. They’re weaponizing the entire market structure: •Exemptions •Synthetic trades •Off-exchange routing •Disclosure delays •Regulatory inaction The system isn’t broken. It was built this way.
