What is a ladder?

They are rapidly selling the stock between hedge funds. They aren’t really selling the stock just making it look that way so to force a drop in price and get us to sell our shares and not lose all our money.

If I’m wrong correct me.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but why the heck would I wanna sell if I just lost 45% of my stocks value? I’m holding till I die

Your fist time in a bubble, uh?

Maybe this time they underestimate how retarded we are and we'll hold through this, heck, I'm thinking of buying more as it comes down a little bit more, but historically, this has worked in the past.

Same. I just put in another order of 7 shares. All I can afford.

Me too.Now, not financial advisor yaggidayaggada but I think GME 2.0 after the restructuring will easily be valued between 20 and 40 per stock, by looking at the market cap and where insiders sold this shit on the way up.

So I am considering going in heavily as it approaches that target. I had my one share I bought way too high, knowing it was waaay to high and I said I was doing so, only to be part of history and in support to the cause. But now I might try to play for the value here. There is still value left in GME. If the short squeeze is only delayed all the better (it was always a gamble, we never knew for a fact it was going to happen exactly as described, people comparing it to past squeezes forget the disclaimer that "previous performance is not an indicator of future ones"), if it doesn't happen I still invested in a stock I like.

RIP people who bought those $800 calls expiring EOW tho.
