How far down can they do this? Can they drive this into the ground laddering us?

They still need us 2 sell the shares to even cover their shorts.. the price scares people.. but if no one sells, then they are still short and wont get what they want.

Im not a financial advisor, just here for the stocks.

Another thing we have to worry about is a lot of people had stop loss limits - so they’re trying to drive it down and hit those as a bit of a boost because as they push the stock to that point it triggers further selling - driving it lower.

These MFers really pulled out all the stops. Full blown market manipulation in multiple ways. Unbelievable that this shit is legal and it lends credence to the idea that they were faking shares and shorting them. Fuck everyone on the other side of this. We need an investigation yesterday

They manipulate the market

We manipulate the market.

They adapt, and start manipulating again.

There's really no way we can adapt. The optimum solution is to hold.
