Volumes has come down as the value per share has gone up since Friday. It’s completely logical.
1) Whole shares are still restricted, not just fractional.
2) The most important part, an unfathomable amount of retailers are holding under the impression that it will ignite the squeeze.

That pathetically low volume pisses me off so bad.
This shows 75% short float
This shows 121% short float
This shows 249% short float
Squeeze is still on, imo. Also on the VW squeeze, there was 6 days of red, before blast off. Diamonds hands.

Look, in a completely rational market, I’d fully agree and believe but short % and what happened yesterday contends your argument. Yes some covered but they aren’t completely out
If you honestly think they all covered and got out, what’s your justification fir why they are asking regulators to step in?
You also mentioned yesterday’s dip as evidence, completely ignoring it was a manipulated dip. It was an almost forced sell.
Yesterday retail couldn’t really buy. Manipulated or not, it removed that variable. If there was a short squeeze still happening, particularly with the 7+ day shorts, yesterday busted that thesis for me. Stock got to $480, shorts would have been down astronomically and needed to cover, yet there was no buying pressure from them, and retail investors were folding or else 57MM shares wouldn’t have traded, many of them down considerably. The mechanics of a squeeze require you to get the ball rolling and then force the shorts to cover. That was 1/13-1/26. The action since then has been mostly retail investors swapping the stock while new shorts initiate positions, IMO.
The buy and hold to the moon is what everyone says, but the volume says everyone is perfectly happy taking their 10x return and getting out.
^obviously can’t prove any of this, it’s just my belief based on the action the past week or so.

Has this been discussed yet today?
GameStop short sellers are still not surrendering despite nearly $20 billion in losses

Still, short sellers mostly are holding onto their bearish positions or they are being replaced by new hedge funds willing to bet against the stock. GameStop shares that have been borrowed and sold short have declined by just about 5 million over the last week, marking an 8% dip in the short interest, according to S3. Most of the short covering occurred on Thursday, when the stock fell for the first time in six days.
“I keep hearing that ‘most of the GME shorts have covered’ — totally untrue,” said Ihor Dusaniwsky, S3 managing director of predictive analytics. “In actuality the data shows that total net shares shorted hasn’t moved all that much.”

It’s going over your head then. Everyone is holding
If everyone is holding how will we see over 100% of the float change hands yet again today after it happened yesterday too?

You can trade the same shares, but you know this.

Of course, but I’m using it as a benchmark.
You don’t trade 100% of float or 400% of float like earlier this week unless lots of people are not holding. Plenty are though, no doubt.

But zero movement in the stock. As many sellers as there are buyers.

The concern now is if a bit of this squeeze doesn't happen today, how many people are gonna sell before market close because they got bored and "heard" Friday was supposed to be fireworks?

I’m not talking about earlier this week. Mainly referencing today. Even yesterday when retailers weren’t allowed to buy, some major dips were bought up instantly.
Also you say the squeeze has been happening. Tell me how you differentiate between the squeeze while also recognizing the influx of retailers jumping on a wave. Squeezes require positions to be held

Not going to lie - I'm tempted to get out before COB. Not necessarily because of no fireworks today, but more the uncertainty of what a 48 hour weekend brings, which is plenty of time for the SEC or other manipulation to occur.
Be strong hands, be strong...
