You can't normally describe it as profit because stocks by rule trade at a fair price, but it's surely reasonable to consider in this case GME making a profit from the squeeze given they were selling a good well above fair acquisition price.
- ashika 5mo agono, they issued more stock. stock is a claim on corporate equity, ie the delta between assets and liabilities. existing stock holders' claim to equity gets diluted when this happens, but share prices will often not be effected proportionally, making it appear the company has "made a billion dollars" when in fact they've just split the same pie into smaller pieces and managed to sell it at the same price. ryan now seems to think he can issue shares to acquire ebay, which will be much harder than fleecing retail.
