Saw that right after the market closed. Interesting. Up 49% after market. Unreal.

Beat projected earnings. Earning positive.

only 0.16 EPS, but it shows that the leadership is serious about turning the company around.

I don’t think it’s possible to see what we saw before.
Didn’t the float increase four or five fold?

They have been running 24% cash back through various cash back sites lately, only way I am saving money with gamestop.

Last Summer GameStop issued a 4 for 1 split dividend. Shares went from about 75mil to 305 mil.

The gotcha in the whole dividend was that the DTCC issued many shares as a regular split not a dividend. GameStop gave ComputerShare the correct number of shares. CS distributed it to those of us directly holding, then gave the rest to the DTCC to distribute. This is were the DTCC committed International Securities Fraud. They gave out the shares to select brokers and told the rest to handle it as a regular split. Why? Because there are so many naked short shares. That is what will eventually cause a massive squeeze, unless the government changes the rules. That is sadly very possible.

Muscles, you can laugh, but it is what happened.

There are still massive amounts of synthetic shares of GameStop held at brokers around the market.

Good Deal! I hope you make mint!

I don't do options. I just buy and hold. I just bought more. Buy when up, buy when down. Hold with hands of diamonds.

In AMC. Rooting for GME too, but pessimistic about today. They’ll drop another few million synthetics on us when jpow speaks.

The day is coming - if government will allow it and not toss out all rules.

I will just keep buying and trust that they will do what is right. I know, the second part is foolish.
