First, those 805M are tax rebates, they need to generate taxable profits to get anything back. Second, even the 1800 jobs, say 100k avg - 180M a year vs 42M reduced taxable profits? Apart from that, sure, you have huge equipment costs, wher

17B investment for 805M tax rebates... over 20 years... 5% of invested ammount... seems just like a way to get government involved and avoid them blocking investment.

This is what I don't get, they are a hedge fund, even balanced book as you say, 200% gross exposure. By your calculations they lost 0.5-1b from GME. That means 2b from somewhere else in the market. Questions I'd have: - even balan

Ok, let's assume they shorted at 10$, they lost 3 Billion at 65$ (and say they closed the position) So, the stock needed to be bought back was worth 3 billion at 65$, reduce the 10$ per share it was shorted at and you get 3000M/55

your scenario means everyone is disallowed from shorting. Equal measure to market condition. You see it being different from disallowing just retail buying? Oh and that already exists when there are no shares to borrow. (in theory as they c

You are aware everyone else except retail was allowed to buy right? You are aware hedge funds did just that after doing wash sales to trigger stop losses. It was funny at one point bid ask spread was 120-5000

You can get more the 100% without naked shorts, sure, but is that legal?, does SEC allow that?, nobody is concerned that if there is a short squeeze there is no chance in hell to close out? (like we are seeing here) The point I tried to mak
