Hunting and financially targeting short sellers is apparently a Hot new Video Game.

I’m not so sure they closed out 100% of their short. Not that it matters to me. I just don’t believe so much in the media nowadays.

Working from my High School finance 101 class, selling stock is a way for a company to raise capitol. People buy stock with the expectation that it will go higher.
Shorting a stock turns the market into a casino. What possible good (other than the short sellers making money) comes from short selling?

the only good short seller is the one who loses everrything and has to hold up a ‘will work for food’ sign.
Criminal parasites.

Well, boo hoo. These scum will have to invest their clients' money the old-fashioned way:
- Do the research and find potentially profitable firms with useful products or services.

I recall that somewhere in the early 2000s they did away with “the uptick rule”. And this made it easier to short stocks.
Can someone more savvy than me explain that?
To: CheshireTheCat
No more shorts?
You know, most of these fund managers are incapable of telling the truth. In my experience, anyway.

Nah...I don’t buy it. This is disinformation. They will continue because there is too much money in it. George Soros is not going to stop the activity that made him a Billionaire. They will learn from this and operate in a much more covert manner, while paying politicians to rig the game in their favor so the little guy cannot do this again.

"Citron closed out its short position this week among the frenzy of buying and selling that has had the price move in wild gyrations between $100 and $500 a share." <\i>
They "closed it out" when Robinhood froze it's client's trading at 11:43 am. Thursday morning. Market minipulation at it's finest.

I think Short selling has its place and shouldn’t be prevented, except for some restrictions on overburdened use.
Its a risky thing to do and the GME ultimately provides a harsh lesson to those who short sell at ridiculous amounts beyond where there is actual stock to cover a sale.

A great victory. Short selling should be banned.

If you believe they closed out their short positions, I have a bridge to sell you.
