According to [1], HFs are shorting ETFs with GME shares because there aren't any more shares to borrow. Shorting the etfs drops the price and causes them to liquidate some positions, this however, suggests to me that this is a hail Mary because any liquidation is not necessarily done on GME shares. In-fact, owning GME shares at this point is a hedge against the market. If anything, this actually causes some correction in the market.
