180+ million shares traded today. This was not retail, and Keith Gill (DFV) tweeting had nothing to do with GME’s jump. This is a fight between institutional investors. The longs saw the short interest numbers on GameStop and decided to pile on.
Pinning this on Keith Gill, or retail, makes a good story but is complete bullshit.
Seeing Keith show back up probably gave retail buyers confidence to jump in today in a unified manner. Devin Nunes and team are bringing A TON of attn to naked shorting which will raise all tides too, IMO.
There was something that triggered the action. Why now, why today? See, this is why I never credit after-the-fact analysts. They never predict, only explain after the fact. Sort of like climate cultists.
