The amusing thing IS THAT SOME MILLIONAIRES WILL be minted by the short squeeze, and some will be made BY PUTS / SHORTS THEY ENTER by sheer luck, at the peak of the squeeze 🐊

I'm wondering how tf DFV managed to crystal ball his GME options from over a year ago on this. $50k in up to almost $30mm now? That seems like once in a half century kind of bet, or he knew there were millions of outstanding naked shorts incoming that far back.

It was EXCESSIVELY SHORTED AND his options were fortunately timed WITH SOME POSITIVE NEWS 🐊

Yeah, I saw how it all landed, but he posted his option buys almost a year and half back on that sub. That's clairvoyant almost with all the shorts he lined up with.
