fun GME facts; michael burry of big short fame had a massive long position in them that he opened like a year or so before microsoft partnered with them. much of fintwit myself included had a good laugh about it before that announcement dropped.
its unclear if he held his positions through the recent dip but i kinda hope so because fuck that guy.
Any guesses what caused the events before the short squeeze? Being e-commerce adjacent when that sector is overpriced? Having the rough infrastructure for transition to e-commerce. Physical stores that might have some value when people get to play outside again, assuming those are transformed to something less Blockbusteresque. Just too much investment capital floating around?
Oh i don't really care about the last leg. I know what happened there. I'm mostly interested why Cohen thought GME was worth anything months ago and why the market followed him in the first place.
i think the microsoft partnership is what got it back on the radar for a lot of people. personally i absolutely 100% dont get it but the october stock prices spoke for themselves i guess.
honestly im about to keep an open wsb tab from now on and between you and me i genuinely believe michael burry financed an influence operation on wsb to make this happen
