  • 00:00:00
    good morning everybody it's Saturday we
  • 00:00:02
    made it to the weekend I hope you had a
  • 00:00:04
    good week GameStop ended in the green
  • 00:00:07
    which is exciting we're going to talk a
  • 00:00:08
    bit about GameStop going to talk about
  • 00:00:10
    some Pokemon and some different things
  • 00:00:11
    as usual so uh made this meme uh I don't
  • 00:00:15
    know what it's supposed to mean but it I
  • 00:00:17
    thought it'd be funny and then uh I got
  • 00:00:19
    another package from Gamestop
  • 00:00:21
    so I don't remember what's in this one
  • 00:00:24
    so going to open it and see what's
  • 00:00:26
    happening here
  • 00:00:30
    let's
  • 00:00:33
    see and if um you don't like unboxing
  • 00:00:36
    videos you know they don't happen all
  • 00:00:38
    that often lately GameStop's got to buy
  • 00:00:42
    to get one free deal going on so been
  • 00:00:47
    doing a lot of that so this won't be
  • 00:00:50
    like regular content probably on the
  • 00:00:53
    channel okay so in this box we got a
  • 00:00:58
    bunch of random boosters
  • 00:01:00
    because they it worked out pretty well
  • 00:01:02
    to do buy two get one free with the
  • 00:01:03
    boosters and then you always need card
  • 00:01:05
    sleeves so got a bunch of the sleeves
  • 00:01:08
    and what's nice about mixing up the
  • 00:01:09
    sleeves and the boosters is they're
  • 00:01:12
    about the same price so I find with the
  • 00:01:15
    the buy two get one free kind of deals
  • 00:01:18
    um that's what the box is it's full of
  • 00:01:20
    boosters and sleeves so I don't I think
  • 00:01:22
    it was like nine packs of paldan Fates
  • 00:01:25
    and then nine packs of the sleeves um
  • 00:01:30
    little bit OCD on sleeving the cards
  • 00:01:32
    because you never want to have like you
  • 00:01:34
    can't have a card that's not sleeved
  • 00:01:35
    what if it gets damaged right so um with
  • 00:01:39
    the buy two get one free deal going on
  • 00:01:40
    right now I have to say again incredible
  • 00:01:42
    deal you can't beat it on the
  • 00:01:44
    Collectibles you could even do other
  • 00:01:45
    things you don't have to do Pokemon
  • 00:01:47
    cards or trading cards but you could uh
  • 00:01:49
    get uh squish Mellows for kids I think
  • 00:01:52
    all kinds of different things let me
  • 00:01:54
    just look it up
  • 00:01:56
    GameStop um find some oh and then I I
  • 00:02:01
    always hesitate to even look but I I'm
  • 00:02:03
    here
  • 00:02:05
    so can't help my if I'm here I'm going
  • 00:02:08
    to look are there any PSA graded look at
  • 00:02:10
    this guy oh he's a 1997 I'm just going
  • 00:02:13
    to say I already ordered him hopefully
  • 00:02:14
    he's on the way let's
  • 00:02:18
    see waiting what waiting for product
  • 00:02:21
    availability he's right
  • 00:02:23
    there all right well hopefully he comes
  • 00:02:27
    um look at him he looks amazing Pikachu
  • 00:02:32
    someone's gonna probably try to buy him
  • 00:02:34
    now um but uh if you look
  • 00:02:39
    at uh I don't know when I became
  • 00:02:43
    addicted to Pokemon but it's
  • 00:02:45
    hilarious so when you do the buy two get
  • 00:02:47
    one free thing
  • 00:02:48
    here um it's not obviously just Pokemon
  • 00:02:53
    it's these which are people going are
  • 00:02:55
    going crazy about baseball
  • 00:02:58
    cards uh a lot of card products but you
  • 00:03:01
    like Funko Pop um all kinds of different
  • 00:03:04
    stuff going on here 122 Pages worth of
  • 00:03:07
    stuff so you know you don't squish
  • 00:03:11
    Mallows I don't think we have this one
  • 00:03:13
    we used to collect squish Mallows we
  • 00:03:15
    used to we still
  • 00:03:18
    do we used to also anyway so um yeah
  • 00:03:22
    meme of the day unpacking of the day we
  • 00:03:25
    also got this guy yesterday or the day
  • 00:03:28
    before new Pokemon so we were playing
  • 00:03:31
    and we got a um sometimes it doesn't
  • 00:03:34
    show up there we go krag IUS ex he seems
  • 00:03:39
    good I like Pokemon that do damage to
  • 00:03:42
    Pokemon on people's bench I've realized
  • 00:03:44
    because people like well my daughter
  • 00:03:46
    she'll often Retreat her wounded Pokemon
  • 00:03:49
    and then it's like ah I almost got that
  • 00:03:50
    Pokemon and I may not have a boss's
  • 00:03:52
    orders to get it back into the active
  • 00:03:54
    spot but if I got someone like this guy
  • 00:03:56
    you can knock him out and uh she gets
  • 00:03:58
    really mad about that
  • 00:04:00
    so anytime I can do that is awesome so
  • 00:04:04
    yeah great Pokemon we'll see if we can
  • 00:04:06
    fit him into a deck meme of the day
  • 00:04:09
    talked about all things so let's talk
  • 00:04:10
    about the data really exciting day
  • 00:04:12
    yesterday launched up at first to 2310
  • 00:04:16
    for some reason that was cool and then
  • 00:04:19
    it was getting jammed back down and then
  • 00:04:21
    at the end of the day big volume came in
  • 00:04:23
    on some options drove the price High
  • 00:04:27
    2248 at the close just about 22 250
  • 00:04:30
    there was probably like a battle here
  • 00:04:31
    for 2250 which is correspondingly like
  • 00:04:34
    right on our Dorito so we're just
  • 00:04:37
    battling at the top of this downward
  • 00:04:39
    forming giant wedge over the last
  • 00:04:42
    several months here and we ended
  • 00:04:45
    basically the week here above max pain
  • 00:04:47
    which is great and just posted a new
  • 00:04:49
    Recaps repricing in the obligations
  • 00:04:52
    Warehouse above the last one by a couple
  • 00:04:55
    bucks $160 or so all of this could be
  • 00:04:58
    really good um seems like a good setup
  • 00:05:00
    to me on some decent volume here coming
  • 00:05:03
    in at the end of
  • 00:05:04
    September uh anything else worth
  • 00:05:07
    mentioning um datawise we got long
  • 00:05:11
    volume actually coming in 60% long
  • 00:05:13
    volume only 40% short volume good to see
  • 00:05:17
    as usual xrt has not updated their
  • 00:05:21
    outstanding shares it's always like the
  • 00:05:25
    very very they do it like very very last
  • 00:05:27
    thing but it had been on some Redemption
  • 00:05:29
    here down to to from a pretty high
  • 00:05:31
    number of shares down to a pretty low
  • 00:05:33
    number of shares I've never seen an ETF
  • 00:05:36
    vary their number of Holdings or
  • 00:05:38
    outstanding shares so much from dayto
  • 00:05:41
    day all these other ones
  • 00:05:43
    barely like change like a couple per a
  • 00:05:46
    month this one's changing like 100% a
  • 00:05:49
    month it's crazy so we are now uh
  • 00:05:52
    creating xrt or um other ETFs so we went
  • 00:05:57
    through a really quick as expected
  • 00:05:59
    Redemption cycle and now we're moving
  • 00:06:01
    into back into creation so click this
  • 00:06:04
    guy
  • 00:06:07
    here so flipping back up into some
  • 00:06:09
    creation we'll see what xrt does these
  • 00:06:12
    can either Trend together or counter um
  • 00:06:16
    move so right now they're moving
  • 00:06:17
    together xrt and the other ones you can
  • 00:06:20
    see here someone mentioned that GameStop
  • 00:06:22
    screen on the daily 5 day the 3 month
  • 00:06:26
    the 6 month year to date one year 5 year
  • 00:06:29
    kind of cool I guess but uh most
  • 00:06:30
    important to me it looked a lot better
  • 00:06:33
    yesterday but we had this really nice
  • 00:06:35
    Thumper formation maybe we could see it
  • 00:06:37
    here on the
  • 00:06:40
    5day yeah it's going like Thump Thump
  • 00:06:43
    Thump Thump Thump Thump Thump all along
  • 00:06:45
    here the uh lows are getting
  • 00:06:49
    higher and the highs were getting kind
  • 00:06:52
    of lower except we had that big move in
  • 00:06:55
    the morning is early early uh part of
  • 00:06:58
    the trading day
  • 00:07:00
    big move and then yeah ended up green so
  • 00:07:04
    exciting to see GameStop doing things
  • 00:07:06
    and the most exciting measure of the day
  • 00:07:09
    is the Len pool depleting very quickly
  • 00:07:13
    cost to borrow has not moved but down to
  • 00:07:16
    a quarter million shares available
  • 00:07:19
    after after 140 million shares sold by
  • 00:07:23
    the company over the last 3 months and
  • 00:07:25
    20 million just like a week ago so look
  • 00:07:29
    at this lend pool getting depleted
  • 00:07:31
    really really quick that's great that's
  • 00:07:33
    really exciting to see uh if somebody
  • 00:07:36
    forc delivery of a lot of shares by
  • 00:07:38
    having us end max pain or end above max
  • 00:07:41
    pain they could be borrowing desperately
  • 00:07:44
    to make sure that they can you know
  • 00:07:46
    deliver shares in the short term and
  • 00:07:48
    they're going to have to go out and get
  • 00:07:49
    those shares so to me all this is
  • 00:07:51
    telling you know that's a lot of data
  • 00:07:53
    people are like all right you're just
  • 00:07:54
    talking about numbers constantly what's
  • 00:07:55
    going on here it it tells me we're
  • 00:07:58
    seeing long interest coming on the stock
  • 00:08:01
    which is on here
  • 00:08:05
    somewhere
  • 00:08:08
    um so I'm looking forward
  • 00:08:12
    to eventually GameStop becoming a media
  • 00:08:15
    darling as long interest grows but I've
  • 00:08:19
    always been saying for the last year and
  • 00:08:20
    a half or longer once Longs an
  • 00:08:23
    institution start to Pile in on this
  • 00:08:25
    thing that's when you're going to see it
  • 00:08:27
    melt up and go crazy because households
  • 00:08:30
    already got such a big stake in it and
  • 00:08:33
    you can go back to this chart this is
  • 00:08:35
    like the chart I always like the most
  • 00:08:39
    well I like a lot of charts like
  • 00:08:42
    addicted to graphs but this one is great
  • 00:08:45
    it shows that back before the sneeze
  • 00:08:49
    institutional Holdings were over
  • 00:08:52
    100% because back then there were only
  • 00:08:55
    65 million shares of GameStop and
  • 00:08:57
    institutions owned like all of them plus
  • 00:09:00
    more how's that possible because the
  • 00:09:02
    short interest was so high right so they
  • 00:09:06
    owned institutions had just continued to
  • 00:09:08
    buy and buy and buy and then they
  • 00:09:10
    started to sell into the sneeze and they
  • 00:09:12
    sold a lot in 2021 so why did the price
  • 00:09:16
    go down well they shorted It Off The Top
  • 00:09:18
    This is a conversation that we'll have
  • 00:09:19
    later in the video too uh people are
  • 00:09:21
    like yeah Newton's ignoring the fact
  • 00:09:23
    that in uh short sellers sold the top
  • 00:09:25
    too for uh 2021 and 2022 no Institution
  • 00:09:29
    were selling the top so institutional
  • 00:09:31
    Holdings Dro down dramatically and you
  • 00:09:33
    can see they only blip back up but check
  • 00:09:35
    this out this is the this is the stock
  • 00:09:38
    dividend split you guys and it goes
  • 00:09:40
    literally here to here it does a Forex
  • 00:09:43
    from 20 million shares held by
  • 00:09:45
    institutions up to 80 or so million
  • 00:09:47
    shares held by institutions institutions
  • 00:09:49
    didn't buy 60 million shares their
  • 00:09:51
    shares were split because this is none
  • 00:09:53
    of this is split adjusted all right so
  • 00:09:55
    really institutions just kept their
  • 00:09:58
    Holdings the same very depleted Holdings
  • 00:10:00
    really cuz it's 20 million out of the 80
  • 00:10:03
    million or so shares at this point in
  • 00:10:05
    time uh so basically institutions owning
  • 00:10:07
    from 100% of the company down to 25 or
  • 00:10:10
    so% of the company up to 80 million out
  • 00:10:14
    of 3 and some odd million shares 320 odd
  • 00:10:17
    million shares still 25% of the company
  • 00:10:20
    they didn't really increase their
  • 00:10:20
    Holdings here they only barely started
  • 00:10:23
    to nibble in the last two years so this
  • 00:10:26
    has caused price to be extremely
  • 00:10:28
    suppressed because the only people
  • 00:10:30
    supporting the price of GameStop over
  • 00:10:33
    the last 3 or 4 years has been household
  • 00:10:37
    uh all the ETFs and mutual funds are
  • 00:10:39
    likely completely looted dry
  • 00:10:41
    institutions have sold everything
  • 00:10:43
    everyone's basically thought GameStop
  • 00:10:45
    was going way back down into the dirt
  • 00:10:47
    and they're all short or at zero on
  • 00:10:50
    their GameStop positions and when they
  • 00:10:52
    finally want to have their Holdings go
  • 00:10:53
    way back up you know I doubt they'll go
  • 00:10:55
    over over 100% right but if they want to
  • 00:10:59
    have their Holdings go from 80 million
  • 00:11:01
    or 90 million shares of
  • 00:11:03
    GameStop back up to representing a
  • 00:11:06
    substantial portion of the outstanding
  • 00:11:07
    this is a tiny bit of outstanding right
  • 00:11:09
    now what is this if this is at 95
  • 00:11:13
    million shares out of the outstanding of
  • 00:11:16
    446 they're at 21% household owns all
  • 00:11:20
    the rest that's what I was saying in
  • 00:11:21
    yesterday's video too if they want to
  • 00:11:23
    see their ownership go up to like 70%
  • 00:11:26
    like it is on most stocks you know
  • 00:11:27
    institutions and ETFs and mut funds or
  • 00:11:30
    80% right they they got big buying to do
  • 00:11:33
    they need to get up to like 350 million
  • 00:11:35
    shares a GameStop 360 million shares
  • 00:11:38
    right they only own 95 they got to buy
  • 00:11:41
    like a quarter billion shares of
  • 00:11:43
    GameStop to get their ownership back up
  • 00:11:44
    to where it was before you got to split
  • 00:11:46
    adjust this whole thing mentally all
  • 00:11:47
    right so this graph is extremely
  • 00:11:50
    exciting to me could we see that
  • 00:11:52
    happening it seems awfully convenient to
  • 00:11:54
    me that repeatedly the stock is being
  • 00:11:57
    jammed up um on options expiry forcing a
  • 00:12:02
    lot of like near the money options calls
  • 00:12:05
    into the money um big volume so what a
  • 00:12:08
    what a way to do it if you wanted to get
  • 00:12:11
    leverage buying over time this is me
  • 00:12:13
    just Theory crafting here but let's say
  • 00:12:15
    each of these is a week so here's a week
  • 00:12:19
    here's a week here's a week here's a
  • 00:12:21
    week all right and then now you're
  • 00:12:24
    looking at oops let me do this so this
  • 00:12:26
    is a week of options xpres or a month
  • 00:12:30
    here's another month and then you'd have
  • 00:12:32
    another month after that and so forth
  • 00:12:34
    like let's say you build into a position
  • 00:12:37
    on options that are near the money
  • 00:12:39
    because you're wanting to get leverage
  • 00:12:40
    you're wanting to ensure a certain price
  • 00:12:42
    you're not going out and buying onto the
  • 00:12:44
    market um what do you do let's say it
  • 00:12:47
    was this week right you buy a bunch of
  • 00:12:49
    calls right and at the end of the week
  • 00:12:53
    boom you put in a big order for some
  • 00:12:54
    more calls for January so way down the
  • 00:12:56
    road now you're building a call position
  • 00:12:58
    out here here it blips the price up in
  • 00:13:00
    the short term all these now go into the
  • 00:13:02
    money you get delivery of those shares
  • 00:13:04
    and then the next week you do the same
  • 00:13:06
    thing get some calls that are in the
  • 00:13:07
    money add to your position out here for
  • 00:13:10
    January Boop flip the price up and then
  • 00:13:13
    all of a sudden these all go in the
  • 00:13:14
    money too and then the next week you do
  • 00:13:16
    the same thing you build into a call
  • 00:13:17
    call position in the short term build
  • 00:13:19
    your call position in the long term put
  • 00:13:21
    some upward pressure on the price
  • 00:13:23
    because the options uh sellers are going
  • 00:13:26
    to Delta hedge all these guys which we
  • 00:13:28
    saw at the end of the day
  • 00:13:29
    all these go in the money value town
  • 00:13:31
    right so you're getting um you know
  • 00:13:34
    cheap exposure to GameStop out here but
  • 00:13:38
    you're ensuring through your playing of
  • 00:13:40
    short-term options and then long-term
  • 00:13:42
    options that you're getting uh a good
  • 00:13:46
    deal on the stock and you're you're
  • 00:13:49
    applying pressure across the chain if
  • 00:13:51
    you just go out and buy millions of
  • 00:13:53
    shares in the immediate term which could
  • 00:13:55
    have happened right
  • 00:13:56
    here on last week on Friday
  • 00:14:00
    um you're going to you're going to like
  • 00:14:02
    basically terrify everybody and run the
  • 00:14:04
    price up too strongly and then the price
  • 00:14:05
    is going to come back down right so
  • 00:14:07
    instead you could just do it
  • 00:14:08
    incrementally week after week after week
  • 00:14:10
    so that's in theory um Longs could be
  • 00:14:13
    building in um institutions are going to
  • 00:14:15
    have to have to crowd this space like
  • 00:14:18
    we've already crowded it um household
  • 00:14:20
    investors and since most household
  • 00:14:22
    investors are super priced and sensitive
  • 00:14:24
    they're like no I'm not going to sell
  • 00:14:25
    here at
  • 00:14:26
    $22 where institution is going to get
  • 00:14:29
    shares from market makers and so forth
  • 00:14:31
    right are going to have to provide that
  • 00:14:33
    liquidity and then you're going to see
  • 00:14:35
    them like really struggle with this
  • 00:14:36
    thing could be exciting anyway so uh
  • 00:14:38
    that's my thought on the price action
  • 00:14:41
    this week very exciting to see this
  • 00:14:42
    Thumper P pattern happening um and and
  • 00:14:45
    see the cost to borrow not move but the
  • 00:14:47
    available shares deplete out and um this
  • 00:14:50
    is when I think the stock gets the most
  • 00:14:52
    volatile because they can't just
  • 00:14:53
    immediately borrow and um suppress
  • 00:14:57
    action in the short term I don't think
  • 00:14:58
    there was anything anything else I
  • 00:14:59
    noticed long volume is good xrt still
  • 00:15:03
    hasn't reported probably won't until
  • 00:15:05
    Monday morning so weird I don't know
  • 00:15:07
    what's up with that and then Kitty's
  • 00:15:08
    charts all looking really good so again
  • 00:15:11
    I only really look at RSI in the 15 now
  • 00:15:14
    but not looking too crazy even with some
  • 00:15:16
    big price move um you know slow slow
  • 00:15:19
    steady price movement rsis just chilling
  • 00:15:22
    in the midline on a lot of our graphs
  • 00:15:24
    here I think that's really good I think
  • 00:15:26
    that's really really good to see price
  • 00:15:27
    move in RSI stay pretty steady not like
  • 00:15:30
    move too much to one side or the other
  • 00:15:33
    and then we're seeing um down here on
  • 00:15:36
    like our five trigger chart here I love
  • 00:15:38
    this chart um maybe this is my favorite
  • 00:15:41
    chart I mean look how many you got five
  • 00:15:42
    charts in one how can it not be your
  • 00:15:44
    favorite anyway so we got macd in green
  • 00:15:46
    great is this a trigger getting awfully
  • 00:15:50
    close price is above it now too so we're
  • 00:15:52
    going to say this one's triggered that
  • 00:15:53
    one's triggered this one's close this
  • 00:15:55
    one's like a half trigger because it's
  • 00:15:57
    moved over the yellow but not over the
  • 00:15:59
    blue so we're at what 3 and 1 half
  • 00:16:00
    triggers out of the five that's pretty
  • 00:16:03
    good um but it can reverse really
  • 00:16:05
    quickly too but you can see the whole
  • 00:16:07
    thing tight triangle here on everything
  • 00:16:11
    so excited about that and we're seeing
  • 00:16:14
    utilization here up a little bit but
  • 00:16:16
    chilling and options pricing is actually
  • 00:16:20
    still saying a little bit of little bit
  • 00:16:23
    expensive compared to like back earlier
  • 00:16:25
    this year so this would be like
  • 00:16:26
    additional evidence towards this theory
  • 00:16:28
    that like Longs could be steadily
  • 00:16:30
    nibbling in through call Action doing it
  • 00:16:32
    on the short term and then pressuring
  • 00:16:34
    with the long-term calls for January
  • 00:16:37
    with leaps theoretically and then I do
  • 00:16:39
    want to return back to this Rex code
  • 00:16:41
    thing I think a lot of these have some
  • 00:16:43
    um potential for having been used
  • 00:16:46
    especially obviously 68 if someone's
  • 00:16:49
    deficient on their
  • 00:16:50
    margin then they get 15 business days or
  • 00:16:53
    14 calendar 14 calendar days I think
  • 00:16:56
    that's totally reasonable but there's
  • 00:16:57
    other ones and I want to look into the
  • 00:16:59
    more closely but I just honestly have
  • 00:17:00
    not had the chance um a couple posts to
  • 00:17:03
    go over here really quick here yeah this
  • 00:17:06
    one so um I had had this on the chart we
  • 00:17:10
    are officially at did I take it off the
  • 00:17:12
    chart for some
  • 00:17:14
    reason I don't know why it would have
  • 00:17:16
    come off the chart but basically this is
  • 00:17:18
    officially Ryan Cohen
  • 00:17:23
    um Oney year
  • 00:17:26
    anniversary of being CEO
  • 00:17:29
    and I just wanted to
  • 00:17:31
    revisit like do a real quick year in
  • 00:17:34
    review because he had said um in the
  • 00:17:38
    interview with the DRS gme folks or um
  • 00:17:41
    gme DD folks I think it was who they
  • 00:17:43
    then ended up hiring which I think is
  • 00:17:45
    super cool they're social media person
  • 00:17:47
    it seems like they're doing a really
  • 00:17:48
    good job super engaged with the
  • 00:17:49
    community meming and so forth I don't
  • 00:17:52
    know if their memes can compete with
  • 00:17:54
    mine but they're doing a good job and uh
  • 00:17:58
    so after after a year what has Ryan coh
  • 00:18:01
    accomplished stockwise so we go back to
  • 00:18:03
    when he became
  • 00:18:06
    CEO that would have been right back here
  • 00:18:09
    so the day prior we could do that or
  • 00:18:14
    when was it announced was it
  • 00:18:18
    announced I guess it doesn't matter
  • 00:18:20
    stock was basically $17 if you average
  • 00:18:23
    the two days so stock was at $17 a
  • 00:18:27
    share um
  • 00:18:31
    um yeah it was moving down pretty
  • 00:18:34
    strongly at this point
  • 00:18:36
    because it had been like in the 20s
  • 00:18:39
    prior in the months to come it would
  • 00:18:42
    drop all the way down into the 11
  • 00:18:46
    range right back here 1191 hit a low of
  • 00:18:52
    1183 two months after he became
  • 00:18:55
    CEO had a nice little December action
  • 00:18:58
    here
  • 00:18:59
    and then went all the way down to $10
  • 00:19:01
    but we're a year out now stock is now $4
  • 00:19:06
    up four or5 up from where he became CEO
  • 00:19:10
    so that's an improvement I you can't
  • 00:19:11
    like attribute everything to him
  • 00:19:14
    obviously but let's go closing day today
  • 00:19:16
    onee delta T plus whatever
  • 00:19:20
    so there's our closing price here and
  • 00:19:24
    then
  • 00:19:25
    CEO back here we'll just call it 6
  • 00:19:32
    1684 so stock price is up
  • 00:19:35
    33% that's
  • 00:19:39
    good company has $4.6 billion in cash it
  • 00:19:43
    used to have like 1 billion so we've got
  • 00:19:48
    like a 4,000% increase is that right no
  • 00:19:51
    a 46% increase I don't know um just
  • 00:19:54
    subtract one 3.6 billion increase in
  • 00:19:58
    cash value can actually go look at the
  • 00:20:00
    little cash chart here so here we
  • 00:20:03
    were Ryan Cohen becomes CEO back in
  • 00:20:07
    here uh no it's not right back in
  • 00:20:12
    here so here's Ryan Cohen becoming CEO
  • 00:20:16
    stock price moving down little blip up
  • 00:20:19
    for a while moves way down and then now
  • 00:20:21
    we're way up here so overall market cap
  • 00:20:23
    has moved from when he became CEO to
  • 00:20:25
    about 5 billion to about 10 billion
  • 00:20:29
    is that right yeah there's more shares
  • 00:20:31
    that's actually interesting to think
  • 00:20:32
    about so stock price is up 33% market
  • 00:20:35
    caps up 100% because of all the new
  • 00:20:38
    shares uh operational value is way up
  • 00:20:42
    over 5 billion now 5.5 billion is what
  • 00:20:44
    the operations being basically valued at
  • 00:20:46
    if you if you take away all the cash so
  • 00:20:49
    that's significant and we've got this
  • 00:20:51
    gigantic cash horde and we've got Ryan
  • 00:20:54
    Cohen what they should have drawn was
  • 00:20:56
    Ryan k s sitting on a big old pile of
  • 00:20:58
    money
  • 00:21:01
    and we've got all this stuff happening
  • 00:21:03
    with like PSA graded cards mod retro um
  • 00:21:08
    collaboration uh I'm excited honestly
  • 00:21:12
    there is an incredible amount of hate
  • 00:21:13
    for Ryan Coen going on right now um and
  • 00:21:17
    I had said in a video he's kind of
  • 00:21:19
    becoming the villain I I wasn't say I
  • 00:21:21
    think people like hear me say things and
  • 00:21:23
    I'm like I didn't really say that I said
  • 00:21:25
    he's quickly becoming the villain and I
  • 00:21:27
    could rank him down to a b here just cuz
  • 00:21:29
    that he hasn't bought any shares come on
  • 00:21:30
    ran con buy some shares um I'm never
  • 00:21:34
    telling anyone what to do with their
  • 00:21:35

    local is good local SEC Branch offices

    they get stuff done um because they're
  • 00:22:47
    not yet known well enough by the
  • 00:22:50
    industry to have their claws on them so
  • 00:22:51
    they're actually probably going out and
  • 00:22:53
    doing real work it's all the people in
  • 00:22:54
    Washington that are going to be like oh
  • 00:22:56
    we can't look into this that's that's
  • 00:22:59
    too risky um that could end my career if
  • 00:23:01
    I look into this the people that don't
  • 00:23:03
    know any better at the local offices
  • 00:23:05

    with for like a little bit you know just
  • 00:23:36
    guarantee them to Pros first if you want
  • 00:23:38
    to create sticky customers and you want
  • 00:23:40
    to have value and this is an issue that
  • 00:23:43
    that would be a really good thing to do
  • 00:23:44
    it would show that you really care about
  • 00:23:47
    your uh customers over uh profit profits
  • 00:23:51
    right and I think that that's what Ryan
  • 00:23:52
    Cohen did with Chewy um and this is
  • 00:23:54
    something the community is Big about so
  • 00:23:56
    I would say that would be a cool really
  • 00:23:58
    cool move by GameStop then also all
  • 00:24:00
    these scalpers are going to buy a bunch
  • 00:24:01
    of pro members uh Pro memberships which
  • 00:24:04
    is good anyway so um excited to see that
  • 00:24:07
    kind of action uh by the company that's
  • 00:24:10
    how they got to put their um change
  • 00:24:12
    their reputation which I think is
  • 00:24:15
    improving with how um good of deals you
  • 00:24:18
    can get a GameStop now on your tradeing
  • 00:24:21
    stuff because that was been like a
  • 00:24:22
    laughing or a joke running joke for a
  • 00:24:24
    long time that GameStop gives you
  • 00:24:25
    terrible trade in value but they can
  • 00:24:28
    work on that image by doing things like
  • 00:24:29
    this and improving trade in value this
  • 00:24:32
    is a big deal so I have here on the
  • 00:24:34
    bearish side that GameStop and Ryan
  • 00:24:37
    Cohen I don't think GameStop currently
  • 00:24:40
    is under any kind of or in any kind of
  • 00:24:43
    um lawsuit but Ryan Cohen is and I'm not
  • 00:24:47
    sure which one I'm going to have to get
  • 00:24:49
    rid of here so New York has sued roaring
  • 00:24:51
    Kitty Massachusetts at Su Roar and kitty
  • 00:24:54
    there was like some kind of like
  • 00:24:56
    supposed class action one where someone
  • 00:24:58
    had a small number of shares and calls
  • 00:25:00
    that sued Rory and kitty I think that
  • 00:25:01
    one was dropped I haven't heard anything
  • 00:25:02
    about these two I don't know if this is
  • 00:25:04
    the DK butterfly one but I'll cross it
  • 00:25:06
    out for now so you got all these
  • 00:25:09
    lawsuits that slow everything down
  • 00:25:11
    especially everybody that's very very
  • 00:25:12
    hopeful for like some kind of merger or
  • 00:25:15
    acquisition type thing to happen which
  • 00:25:18
    of course I'm very excited about I just
  • 00:25:19
    don't talk about it because to be honest
  • 00:25:21
    I'm going to stick with stuff that like
  • 00:25:23
    has fairly solid evidence or at least
  • 00:25:26
    seems
  • 00:25:29
    um you know reasonably plausible I would
  • 00:25:33
    say like you know an occasional 4chan
  • 00:25:34
    post which I know upset a ton of people
  • 00:25:37
    he's like he's posting something from
  • 00:25:38
    forchan and he's investigating it how
  • 00:25:41
    dare
  • 00:25:42
    he like I don't know seemed good credit
  • 00:25:45
    Swiss buying calls that seemed great
  • 00:25:47
    someone else is buying calls here though
  • 00:25:49
    related so uh tons of January calls
  • 00:25:52
    pouring in at the end of the day why
  • 00:25:54
    would they do this like why would you
  • 00:25:57
    buy all these calls all at once like
  • 00:25:58
    this you know anyone that cares about
  • 00:26:00
    the price of the stock in the short term
  • 00:26:02
    and wants to keep it down um would
  • 00:26:04
    trickle in these trades someone wanted
  • 00:26:06
    to get a bunch of
  • 00:26:08
    Leverage um and pump the price of the
  • 00:26:10
    stock at the end of the day for some
  • 00:26:11
    reason so why would they do that but
  • 00:26:13
    that's cool I don't know half the words
  • 00:26:15
    in this post but here's unusual whales
  • 00:26:18
    basically talking about huge premium
  • 00:26:20
    coming in on the ask side so people are
  • 00:26:23
    buying I don't know what all this means
  • 00:26:25
    or this um it's bullish I know what that
  • 00:26:28
    or
  • 00:26:29
    dark pool volume blips up and then we
  • 00:26:31
    see available shares most important
  • 00:26:34
    blips down upon all this action so that
  • 00:26:37
    seems good um got some charts love
  • 00:26:41
    charts yeah so um you know I'm just
  • 00:26:45
    excited I don't ever trade options
  • 00:26:47
    because I'm just like I don't know it's
  • 00:26:49
    like so I'm so risk adverse it's like I
  • 00:26:52
    know I got shares options just stress me
  • 00:26:55
    out just by even thinking about it like
  • 00:26:56
    the fact that you could just get wiped
  • 00:26:57
    out
  • 00:26:58
    if if for some reason you know whoever's
  • 00:27:03
    on the other side of this trade just
  • 00:27:04
    decides you know we're not messing
  • 00:27:07
    around for a while we're just going to
  • 00:27:08
    jam this thing down for the next 6
  • 00:27:09
    months it's like oh like I don't know so
  • 00:27:12
    it just worries me because this is
  • 00:27:13
    always something that could happen um or
  • 00:27:17
    this right so I never know what's going
  • 00:27:19
    to happen so I'm just like yeah just
  • 00:27:20
    pick up shares don't worry about it um
  • 00:27:24
    and then I like this because in the
  • 00:27:25
    video I posted yesterday I talked about
  • 00:27:28
    various ways it could be short I said
  • 00:27:29
    shorts puts they could short ETFs they
  • 00:27:32
    could borrow from ETFs and mutual funds
  • 00:27:34
    all these different routes that were
  • 00:27:36
    like basically I put all the legit ones
  • 00:27:38
    on there and then I didn't talk about
  • 00:27:40
    strategic failing to deliver that's a
  • 00:27:42
    strategy could be huge lots of short
  • 00:27:44
    interest there or uh naked shorting
  • 00:27:46
    which is kind of the same thing in a way
  • 00:27:48
    um or illegal short selling right which
  • 00:27:51
    naked Short Selling would be um and it's
  • 00:27:54
    like for years now we've been told no
  • 00:27:56
    that's not a thing that's not real and
  • 00:27:57
    it's like here's Korea literally saying
  • 00:27:59
    oh you're going to be faced with maximum
  • 00:28:02
    life sentences if you're doing this
  • 00:28:04
    practice it's like why would all these
  • 00:28:05
    countries be coming out so strongly
  • 00:28:07
    against it if it's like a phantom if it
  • 00:28:09
    doesn't really exist no it exists Bernie
  • 00:28:12
    Madoff was doing it um others have been
  • 00:28:15
    fined repeatedly for doing it um so if
  • 00:28:19
    you are honestly able to synthetically
  • 00:28:22
    just like create volume and sell
  • 00:28:25
    something you don't own it would be
  • 00:28:27
    extremely tempting ing to just do it
  • 00:28:29
    just be like this company's going into
  • 00:28:30
    chapter 11 let's just print 10 million
  • 00:28:32
    shares make a quick 20 million bucks on
  • 00:28:34
    this thing and not worry about it right
  • 00:28:36
    like that's super tempting and I'm sure
  • 00:28:39
    they got their hand caught in the cookie
  • 00:28:41
    jar on GameStop and now that hand is
  • 00:28:43
    stuck and they're just bleeding that was
  • 00:28:45
    my whole thesis from yesterday love to
  • 00:28:47
    see this people just supporting the
  • 00:28:49
    company buying a ridiculous amount of
  • 00:28:51
    these trading cards I was thinking this
  • 00:28:52
    is pretty clever too because people are
  • 00:28:54
    Ultra bullish on bitcoin and things in
  • 00:28:56
    particular so so like Legacy packs
  • 00:29:00
    original like first edition packs of M
  • 00:29:02
    Magic the Gathering card or Pokémon
  • 00:29:04
    where one booster could go for
  • 00:29:06
    ridiculous thousands of dollars right if
  • 00:29:08
    you know it's sealed you know it's legit
  • 00:29:10
    people are like well I could get a black
  • 00:29:12
    lotus in there I could get an original
  • 00:29:15
    uh Hollow Charizard right if you could
  • 00:29:17
    pull a full Bitcoin out of one of these
  • 00:29:20
    packs in the years to come these things
  • 00:29:22
    could increase in value if Bitcoin keeps
  • 00:29:24
    going up in value long term which a lot
  • 00:29:27
    of people very much believe in so you
  • 00:29:28
    can just keep sealed packs of these
  • 00:29:29
    around and these things could just soar
  • 00:29:31
    in value so really clever here um I
  • 00:29:35
    don't know is there even a a game
  • 00:29:37
    associated with it the reason I'm
  • 00:29:38
    collecting Pokemon for me is not
  • 00:29:40
    value um I just love playing the game
  • 00:29:43
    with my daughter and seeing her learn
  • 00:29:45
    and win and stuff but sometimes it's fun
  • 00:29:48
    to beat her too so uh so that's
  • 00:29:50
    enjoyable but uh if you can't play a
  • 00:29:52
    game with these it's like I don't know
  • 00:29:53
    if I would collect them personally um
  • 00:29:56
    but I can see why people do an are
  • 00:29:58
    uh and then this is worth mentioning I
  • 00:30:00
    had someone Reach Out same person that
  • 00:30:03
    um sent me this coffee from Hawaii so
  • 00:30:05
    thank you again for the Hawaii Coffee um
  • 00:30:07
    and they said their Schwab account is
  • 00:30:09
    showing 300% margin to short GameStop
  • 00:30:12
    and this person's margin account just
  • 00:30:14
    went up on shorting GameStop why would
  • 00:30:16
    they be so worried right well Len pool's
  • 00:30:18
    depleting Oh no just lost a
  • 00:30:22
    tab so Len pool is depleting here um and
  • 00:30:25
    they're increasing the margin rate on
  • 00:30:27
    GameStop that's bullish right and Thomas
  • 00:30:29
    pedre had said the way that they could
  • 00:30:31
    slow or prevent this situation from
  • 00:30:34
    repeating itself would be to do
  • 00:30:35
    something like this as it becomes harder
  • 00:30:38
    to borrow stock the borrow rate needs to
  • 00:30:41
    move out dynamically margin rates need
  • 00:30:44
    to move up dynamically to prevent short
  • 00:30:46
    squeezes that are explosive and and like
  • 00:30:49
    potentially disastrous for the market he
  • 00:30:50
    said that in his interview on I believe
  • 00:30:53
    CNBC so if they started to put that in
  • 00:30:55
    place this would be another good signal
  • 00:30:57
    to look at is what the dynamic margin
  • 00:30:59
    rate is on short and GameStop um because
  • 00:31:03
    the the system itself wants to prevent
  • 00:31:05
    risk right so if they're seeing risk on
  • 00:31:07
    right now I'm excited because that means
  • 00:31:09
    something could happen to the upside
  • 00:31:11
    we're going to end the video here I saw
  • 00:31:12
    that this was posted on super I was like
  • 00:31:14
    that that's cool that graph looks legit
  • 00:31:16
    I love graphs and then I was like oh
  • 00:31:17
    that's my graph so uh someone clipped
  • 00:31:20
    the video which I thought was cool took
  • 00:31:22
    my face out of there which was nice to
  • 00:31:23
    see um and I just wanted to go through a
  • 00:31:25
    couple things cuz I saw someone posted
  • 00:31:27
    something thing I'll get to it but um I
  • 00:31:30
    was 100% before we even knew who this
  • 00:31:31
    guy was I was too that's funny um so
  • 00:31:36
    I've been making videos though for
  • 00:31:37
    people that are new on GameStop since 84
  • 00:31:41
    years
  • 00:31:42
    ago
  • 00:31:44
    um let's see where do you go in here
  • 00:31:51
    analytics yeah so we'll go lifetime here
  • 00:31:54
    so first videos started making them back
  • 00:31:57
    back in like the beginning of 2022 so I
  • 00:32:01
    was like a year of just like kind of
  • 00:32:02
    being
  • 00:32:04
    um just what do you call it lurking on
  • 00:32:06
    forums and just watching the whole thing
  • 00:32:08
    happen and I got really interested in in
  • 00:32:10
    building like an Excel and sharing what
  • 00:32:12
    I was doing back here and then started
  • 00:32:14
    making nfts and doing different things
  • 00:32:16
    here and then I've just been like
  • 00:32:18
    finding a lot of joy and waking up in
  • 00:32:20
    the morning talking about GameStop
  • 00:32:21
    drinking coffee and whatnot uh opening
  • 00:32:24
    Pokemon and yeah so I haven't been here
  • 00:32:27
    on the channel since the beginning but
  • 00:32:28
    been here for a long time and um I'm not
  • 00:32:31
    doing any of it to like get famous or
  • 00:32:34
    anything like uh I don't have a Reddit
  • 00:32:37
    account I my only social media is
  • 00:32:40
    Twitter which looks like this for people
  • 00:32:43
    that are like are you on Twitter because
  • 00:32:45
    people that does come up U I am so it's
  • 00:32:48
    R Newton
  • 00:32:49
    7777 and I post a bible message every
  • 00:32:53
    morning so after I drink my coffee talk
  • 00:32:55
    about Pokemon on GameStop I read the
  • 00:32:58
    Bible so I've got that right
  • 00:33:00
    here and then I make a Bible post here
  • 00:33:03
    and then I put it on my website too and
  • 00:33:05
    on the
  • 00:33:06
    website so here's the nfts we were
  • 00:33:09
    making last year and the year before um
  • 00:33:12
    I post it and I post it with some
  • 00:33:14
    commentary so this is like my Daily
  • 00:33:17
    Journal and then just the verse goes out
  • 00:33:20
    onto
  • 00:33:21
    Twitter and then I take a screenshot of
  • 00:33:23
    this on my cell phone and I send it to
  • 00:33:25
    all the people in my life that I'm
  • 00:33:26
    really close with
  • 00:33:28
    um so it's like 120 people at this point
  • 00:33:31
    or something like that so that's like my
  • 00:33:33
    daily routine um just like connecting
  • 00:33:35
    with people encouraging people through
  • 00:33:37
    the YouTube channel and then um and then
  • 00:33:41
    through my my Twitter kind of Journal
  • 00:33:43
    thing and my website um there is one
  • 00:33:47
    thing I wanted to mention here is
  • 00:33:48
    someone said um I wouldn't want to be in
  • 00:33:51
    a movie I was actually hit up to be in
  • 00:33:53
    that um that that uh documentary that
  • 00:33:57
    just came out I don't even know what
  • 00:33:58
    it's called I didn't watch it um and I
  • 00:34:00
    told him no I was just like n I'm I'm
  • 00:34:03
    just doing my own thing here I'm just
  • 00:34:04
    following along I'm not famous or
  • 00:34:05
    anything um apparently there's ads for
  • 00:34:08
    Robin Hood on this channel I can't stop
  • 00:34:11
    that I don't know I've monetized the
  • 00:34:13
    channel uh because all this I I like
  • 00:34:17
    donating and this is just allowing me to
  • 00:34:20
    donate a ton more money than I can
  • 00:34:21
    usually donate so it's super cool um and
  • 00:34:25
    I figure like why not just turn on
  • 00:34:26
    monetization then I do have to pay taxes
  • 00:34:28
    on the earnings uh but then I just
  • 00:34:31
    whatever just donate it all anyway um
  • 00:34:34
    and then I like this people are adding
  • 00:34:36
    some data to the discussion so short
  • 00:34:38
    interest went bananas in late 2020 they
  • 00:34:41
    were probably borrowing like crazy to
  • 00:34:43
    hedge all the calls because so much of
  • 00:34:45
    those calls just kept going in the money
  • 00:34:47
    over and over again again as Thomas
  • 00:34:49
    perrey talked about um this is what I'm
  • 00:34:51
    about just like tell people like this
  • 00:34:53
    story is amazing and this person got
  • 00:34:56
    concerned cuz I said t plus 400 I was
  • 00:34:57
    kind of joking but the next console
  • 00:35:00
    cycle should be should be out here in
  • 00:35:06
    2027 hopefully um and the console Cycles
  • 00:35:09
    have just historically been huge for
  • 00:35:11
    GameStop we can see long form graph
  • 00:35:13
    which I've got where is the longest form
  • 00:35:16
    one I'll just go look at this guy so you
  • 00:35:19
    can
  • 00:35:21
    see um console
  • 00:35:24
    cycle uh PlayStation 3 PlayStation for
  • 00:35:28
    PlayStation 5 huge so PlayStation 6
  • 00:35:32
    isn't even that far away and look at the
  • 00:35:34
    response like you know institutions and
  • 00:35:37
    so for they want a chunk of GameStop
  • 00:35:38
    going into his console cycle so that's
  • 00:35:40
    why I was talking about that part there
  • 00:35:42
    do you guys really have yeah pretty much
  • 00:35:45
    and then um I like this post so isn't it
  • 00:35:49
    a little intellectually dishonest not to
  • 00:35:50
    mention that it's not like the old
  • 00:35:52
    shorts just sitting paying rent and
  • 00:35:53
    doing nothing else they shorted again at
  • 00:35:55
    the top of the sneeze yep uh but but you
  • 00:35:58
    got to think about the volume and I
  • 00:35:59
    don't know a good way to do this um and
  • 00:36:02
    then they would have kept shorting it at
  • 00:36:03
    the top over and over again and I had
  • 00:36:04
    said that exact thing in the video I
  • 00:36:07
    think it's right here so I didn't ignore
  • 00:36:09
    that part I made sure to talk about that
  • 00:36:10
    part it's like right
  • 00:36:13
    um here where I was filling in they
  • 00:36:16
    could have been shorting all up here but
  • 00:36:18
    here's something also to think about
  • 00:36:20
    again going to that long form graph I'm
  • 00:36:22
    not going to have like a way to do this
  • 00:36:23
    very well mathematically but let's just
  • 00:36:26
    think this stock has never been higher
  • 00:36:31
    um than where it is today except during
  • 00:36:33
    a very brief window of time really
  • 00:36:36
    because if they've been shorting this
  • 00:36:37
    thing since 2014 or 2017 or longer and
  • 00:36:41
    they've just been holding a lot of
  • 00:36:42
    shorts or rolling them or paying rent on
  • 00:36:44
    them so you've only got this period of
  • 00:36:47
    time and the volume here is tiny
  • 00:36:51
    compared to the volume all back here
  • 00:36:53
    absolutely tiny the float was turning
  • 00:36:54
    over so frequently back in here but
  • 00:36:57
    here's something as well to think about
  • 00:37:00
    I've talked about cost to borrow in fact
  • 00:37:02
    I keep it open right here so this person
  • 00:37:04
    always shows cost to borrow and here it
  • 00:37:07
    is in green right so immediately after
  • 00:37:10
    the sneeze cost to borrow went way way
  • 00:37:11
    down and right now cost to borrows
  • 00:37:14
    really low but cost of borrow has been
  • 00:37:16
    very high for long periods of time back
  • 00:37:17
    here so rent is not negligible and rent
  • 00:37:21
    adds to your cost basis if you're a
  • 00:37:22
    short seller so let's do something like
  • 00:37:24
    this so what I was thinking about this
  • 00:37:26
    morning
  • 00:37:29
    as I was laying in bed debating whether
  • 00:37:30
    or not to get up I was like you know I'm
  • 00:37:32
    already thinking about GameStop let's
  • 00:37:34
    just make a video about GameStop too
  • 00:37:36
    while we're at it is um the current
  • 00:37:39
    share price is
  • 00:37:41
    here and I said anyone below this line
  • 00:37:44
    is underwater but really what this line
  • 00:37:47
    does is it moves like
  • 00:37:51
    this because the older oops to do that
  • 00:37:56
    the older your
  • 00:37:59
    short the more rent you paid on it over
  • 00:38:01
    time and there were key periods in time
  • 00:38:03
    you can just look at the graph right
  • 00:38:04
    here when rent was really high on these
  • 00:38:07
    shares especially 2022 so back in here
  • 00:38:11
    cost to borrow blipped up really
  • 00:38:14
    strongly coincidentally that's when
  • 00:38:17
    credit Swiss blew up right and then back
  • 00:38:20
    in here cost to borrow was extremely
  • 00:38:23
    high too so if you were holding shorts
  • 00:38:26
    from back here and let's say you short
  • 00:38:27
    it at
  • 00:38:28
    $5 right well today you've now been if
  • 00:38:31
    you've been holding this short and you
  • 00:38:33
    were short back here at like $5 right
  • 00:38:36
    here right your true cost basis though
  • 00:38:40
    keep kept Rising every time you poured
  • 00:38:42
    some more rent into that short to hold
  • 00:38:44
    it and there were long segments here
  • 00:38:46
    where this thing was 30 40% cost to
  • 00:38:50
    borrow right um or if you were holding a
  • 00:38:52
    position via puts or swaps you've been
  • 00:38:56
    paying in rent so so realistically I
  • 00:38:58
    don't know how exactly to model this
  • 00:39:01
    second line this blue one but it makes
  • 00:39:04
    the volume of shorts that they could
  • 00:39:06
    have entered at these recent tops even
  • 00:39:10
    smaller that's really my thought here
  • 00:39:12
    cuz the person's basically saying he's
  • 00:39:13
    not mentioning the recent shorts that
  • 00:39:16
    offset the Legacy shorts and it's like
  • 00:39:19
    no I did I talked about that they
  • 00:39:20
    probably just didn't listen long enough
  • 00:39:21
    to hear it which is fine because my my
  • 00:39:24
    videos like this one go way too long um
  • 00:39:26
    cuz I'm just kind of talking to myself
  • 00:39:27
    but there was a really good video that
  • 00:39:30
    talked about they broke down essentially
  • 00:39:33
    the the relationship is between these
  • 00:39:35
    two it wasn't a video it was a DD old DD
  • 00:39:38
    but they're basically were showing like
  • 00:39:39
    this is a drop in the bucket compared to
  • 00:39:41
    this and they did some mathematical
  • 00:39:42
    analysis and basically show there's it
  • 00:39:44
    also just adds more shares to their pile
  • 00:39:47
    and what it does is it means that every
  • 00:39:48
    new dollar change down here is
  • 00:39:51
    devastating for them CU it not only does
  • 00:39:54
    it make these ones even more underwater
  • 00:39:57
    but but then these ones which are
  • 00:39:58
    supposed to offset these ones are now
  • 00:40:00
    underwater or less valuable right so
  • 00:40:03
    what it does is if they did short the
  • 00:40:05
    top back here to a tremendous degree it
  • 00:40:07
    forces them into a Tighter and Tighter
  • 00:40:09
    triangle so again if they did it again
  • 00:40:10
    here now it's like every dollar of
  • 00:40:12
    movement down here towards the end of
  • 00:40:14
    this triangle or the end of the whole
  • 00:40:16
    formation is they they need to just keep
  • 00:40:19
    pouring more and more shorts into it and
  • 00:40:21
    then someone asked a really good
  • 00:40:22
    question they were like with the recent
  • 00:40:23
    dilutions doesn't that mean that they
  • 00:40:25
    need to even apply even more volume now
  • 00:40:28
    into it and I'd say yeah absolutely and
  • 00:40:30
    it's going to cause this thing to be
  • 00:40:32
    Tighter and Tighter and Tighter because
  • 00:40:33
    any tiny percent or dollar change down
  • 00:40:36
    here now um affects these ones super
  • 00:40:39
    strongly these Legacy ones devalues
  • 00:40:42
    these ones really strongly and these are
  • 00:40:43
    the ones helping them out keeping this
  • 00:40:46
    part you know from blowing them up and
  • 00:40:49
    it's like I think it's actually even
  • 00:40:52
    more exciting that they piled in more
  • 00:40:53
    shorts after the fact so I don't think
  • 00:40:56
    it's intellectually Dishon at all I
  • 00:40:58
    think it's exciting the fact that the
  • 00:41:00
    only reason that they could be net
  • 00:41:01
    positive on the whole situation is
  • 00:41:03
    because they resorted it they hardly
  • 00:41:04
    closed out anything how like you can't
  • 00:41:08
    close out some shorts and open new
  • 00:41:09
    shorts and say you closed out like no
  • 00:41:11
    you entered more shorts you basically
  • 00:41:13
    averaged their dollar cost averaging up
  • 00:41:15
    with more shorting um and then this
  • 00:41:18
    thing here they're concerned about this
  • 00:41:19
    7 to1 number I just threw out there and
  • 00:41:22
    if they've been following the channel
  • 00:41:23
    which they probably haven't because why
  • 00:41:25
    would you why would you listen to some
  • 00:41:26
    guy at 4: in the morning morning ramble
  • 00:41:28
    endlessly about GameStop that would just
  • 00:41:30
    be crazy to do but we've got the DRS tab
  • 00:41:32
    here and we can see from our surveying
  • 00:41:35
    the people that follow this channel
  • 00:41:37
    which again have got to be crazy people
  • 00:41:40
    um are um 40% on average DRS we've got
  • 00:41:44
    that like right here trim DRS percent
  • 00:41:47
    40% it's coming in like right here here
  • 00:41:50
    it is percent DRS 40% so this is just
  • 00:41:53
    like Fanatics following the channel
  • 00:41:56
    responding to the survey typically um
  • 00:41:58
    and again in real life I don't know
  • 00:42:00
    anybody that even knows about DRS except
  • 00:42:02
    well two know about it but aren't DRS
  • 00:42:04
    right now so like basically what we're
  • 00:42:08
    saying is you can extrapolate from this
  • 00:42:10
    and say that means that like most people
  • 00:42:12
    aren't DRS most shares held by household
  • 00:42:14
    aren't like it just that's just the way
  • 00:42:15
    it is they're trying to say they're
  • 00:42:17
    asking this good question
  • 00:42:20
    um is there any information that the DRS
  • 00:42:23
    position doesn't represent the vast
  • 00:42:24
    majority of all household gme holders
  • 00:42:26
    yeah the fact that even people
  • 00:42:28
    responding to the survey are 60% not DRS
  • 00:42:30
    International people have a lot of
  • 00:42:32
    trouble dsing a lot of people have
  • 00:42:34
    shares in retirement accounts like I do
  • 00:42:36
    that I'm not going to DRS right
  • 00:42:40
    so yeah so and and I'm not saying that
  • 00:42:42
    there's billions of shares out there I
  • 00:42:44
    think that claim comes up a lot but I'm
  • 00:42:46
    just saying they've shorted this thing
  • 00:42:48
    like crazy I had my little um simulation
  • 00:42:50
    I built too that basically showed this
  • 00:42:54
    was back when the outstanding shares
  • 00:42:56
    were was 3 6 back there and we were
  • 00:42:59
    saying if the percent DRS was 22% back
  • 00:43:02
    there which is like 1 and5 then that
  • 00:43:04
    indicated a lot of naked short selling
  • 00:43:07
    right there because you can see this is
  • 00:43:09
    the nonfat this is institutions and
  • 00:43:11
    insiders this is your DRS amount right
  • 00:43:13
    here and this would be the rest all the
  • 00:43:15
    other four shares that are in Brokers
  • 00:43:17
    for every one share that's DRS and it
  • 00:43:19
    goes way over the available float way
  • 00:43:22
    over the short interest which at the
  • 00:43:24
    time was higher and it's like into this
  • 00:43:26
    no man's land which indicates the only
  • 00:43:28
    way that that position can exist is with
  • 00:43:30
    a naked share um supporting it somehow
  • 00:43:33
    or a borrow from an ETF or a mutual fund
  • 00:43:35
    I guess that would be possible too um so
  • 00:43:38
    anyway I thought it was a great question
  • 00:43:40
    and I liked how this person
  • 00:43:44
    said
  • 00:43:48
    um waiting for an answer to this one um
  • 00:43:52
    you make excellent points that you won't
  • 00:43:53
    receive any honest response to like well
  • 00:43:57
    you know this is this uh whole channel
  • 00:43:59
    is just a conversation um people bring
  • 00:44:01
    up things all the
  • 00:44:03
    time um I do think they play in the
  • 00:44:05
    volatility what I'm actually more
  • 00:44:07
    worried about in the picture here than
  • 00:44:09
    them shorting the top I think them
  • 00:44:10
    shorting the top is actually great
  • 00:44:12
    because it's like yeah fight this by
  • 00:44:14
    shorting it more that's exactly how they
  • 00:44:16
    failed in late 2020 so if they keep
  • 00:44:18
    doing it then that's like I think that's
  • 00:44:21
    great that's more future buyers right
  • 00:44:23
    just price needs to move up and blow
  • 00:44:25
    them out again uh what I'm more conc
  • 00:44:27
    concerned about is how much have they
  • 00:44:28
    recouped on options premiums during all
  • 00:44:31
    this because when they do that it takes
  • 00:44:33
    this whole line and lowers their cost
  • 00:44:35
    basis so every time they steal people's
  • 00:44:39
    premiums by delaying settlement
  • 00:44:43
    or um whatever they're doing right they
  • 00:44:46
    can then claim that as a gain lower
  • 00:44:50
    their cost basis they're selling call
  • 00:44:52
    you know doing whatever they're doing um
  • 00:44:54
    and that buys them more time on their
  • 00:44:56
    accounts in theory so I would say that's
  • 00:44:59
    probably more of what they're doing get
  • 00:45:01
    people really excited get options really
  • 00:45:03
    expensive premiums go to the Moon tons
  • 00:45:06
    of people buy and then they they push a
  • 00:45:08
    cycle out really really far burn a bunch
  • 00:45:10
    of people make a bunch of money
  • 00:45:13
    um and then there were like some other
  • 00:45:16
    things in
  • 00:45:17
    here
  • 00:45:19
    um yeah exactly like why would anyone
  • 00:45:21
    watch like an hourong video or an 11
  • 00:45:24
    minute video of someone talking about
  • 00:45:25
    GameStop when you're already know the
  • 00:45:29
    simple thesis here which is nothing else
  • 00:45:33
    explains all of this ridiculous
  • 00:45:35
    volatility except if someone's caught
  • 00:45:38
    and fighting for their life and we've
  • 00:45:40
    seen Banks and um hedge funds explode
  • 00:45:43
    repeatedly and the media just endlessly
  • 00:45:46
    slander
  • 00:45:47
    us
  • 00:45:49
    um so it's like yeah and overbought you
  • 00:45:52
    could call it overbought or oversold
  • 00:45:54
    either
  • 00:45:55
    way um
  • 00:45:59
    and then I had not mentioned shares sold
  • 00:46:01
    not yet bought so I wanted to add that
  • 00:46:03
    on yet like any naked Short Selling
  • 00:46:05
    strategic failing to delivering uh all
  • 00:46:08
    that stuff totally works and they do pay
  • 00:46:10
    rent I believe to the nscc on all that
  • 00:46:13
    in the obligations Warehouse or
  • 00:46:15
    whatever um yeah like honestly I don't
  • 00:46:18
    know anyone DRS right now it's crazy um
  • 00:46:27
    yeah no problem just uh drinking my
  • 00:46:29
    coffee having fun not trying to convince
  • 00:46:31
    anyone of anything but totally historic
  • 00:46:32
    this is amazing this whole story that's
  • 00:46:34
    why I love talking about it like I know
  • 00:46:36
    I do Rambles just like this one um
  • 00:46:38
    constantly but it's like I'm always just
  • 00:46:40
    amazed that like this really happened
  • 00:46:43
    and somehow I got lucky the whole story
  • 00:46:44
    of how I got involved I'm like I'm so
  • 00:46:46
    lucky to even be involved in this
  • 00:46:49
    situation how many movies and
  • 00:46:51
    documentaries have been made at this
  • 00:46:53
    point about the whole thing there was a
  • 00:46:56
    spliid splid in what did they do with
  • 00:46:58
    the split I don't know what this person
  • 00:46:59
    is trying to say but the prices I adjust
  • 00:47:01
    all the prices um in my chart so back
  • 00:47:05
    here just so people do know um prices
  • 00:47:07
    have all been split adjusted volumes all
  • 00:47:09
    been split split adjusted and so have
  • 00:47:10
    ftds but not the
  • 00:47:12
    ftds on the ETFs because I don't think
  • 00:47:15
    you can do that or the outstanding
  • 00:47:17
    shares or anything like that I don't
  • 00:47:20
    think it would matter because it's
  • 00:47:21
    dollar amount anyway so anyway you guys
  • 00:47:23
    there was one last thing I wanted to do
  • 00:47:25
    this is not going to be about GameStop
  • 00:47:27
    today but I did want to say like uh
  • 00:47:31
    there are this situation while as
  • 00:47:33
    amazing as it is honestly and I feel so
  • 00:47:35
    blessed and lucky to be involved in it
  • 00:47:37
    and to like have um somehow decided
  • 00:47:41
    people periodically I think go back and
  • 00:47:42
    watch the first YouTube videos and it's
  • 00:47:44
    like I don't even have a camera on I'm
  • 00:47:46
    looking at a spreadsheet that's like in
  • 00:47:48
    actual Excel and people are like hey
  • 00:47:49
    could you put that on Google Sheets and
  • 00:47:51
    share it with people and I was like all
  • 00:47:52
    right that sounds like a good idea
  • 00:47:53
    people are like hey can you freeze your
  • 00:47:55
    top row here so we know what you're
  • 00:47:57
    actually talking about the the community
  • 00:48:00
    has been so patient with me and um you
  • 00:48:02
    know the fact that it's allowed me to
  • 00:48:04
    fund raise
  • 00:48:05
    essentially um and then support causes
  • 00:48:08
    that I really believe in I think it's
  • 00:48:10
    just such a blessing an amazing thing
  • 00:48:13
    and um I'm I there's just so much to
  • 00:48:16
    this that I consider to be incredible
  • 00:48:18
    it's changed my life I've talked about
  • 00:48:19
    it before I'm not going to in this video
  • 00:48:20
    it changed my whole career um because of
  • 00:48:24
    like well I'll just say it um like being
  • 00:48:27
    down on my position back here during the
  • 00:48:28
    sneeze was like I don't Gamble and I
  • 00:48:31
    felt like I had lost my family money
  • 00:48:33
    that I
  • 00:48:34
    didn't um like I didn't have the right
  • 00:48:37
    to lose or or bet on something um so it
  • 00:48:40
    pushed me really hard to work extra um
  • 00:48:43
    level up my career and then like I'm at
  • 00:48:45
    this I was just talking with my wife
  • 00:48:46
    last night about this I'm at this point
  • 00:48:48
    in my career where I'm just so content
  • 00:48:49
    with what I'm doing I get to work with
  • 00:48:51
    amazing people and have a big impact
  • 00:48:54
    impact and utilize my skill set and in
  • 00:48:56
    fact a lot of doing this channel has
  • 00:48:59
    increased my skill set with um lots of
  • 00:49:02
    things um data type stuff uh
  • 00:49:06
    presentation of material my public
  • 00:49:09
    speaking and just uh I don't even know
  • 00:49:13
    how to describe it but I I see it in my
  • 00:49:16
    work that I do so all this is a is a
  • 00:49:19
    gift and I just wanted to say if you're
  • 00:49:21
    struggling because I think a lot of
  • 00:49:23
    people maybe aren't going through the
  • 00:49:25
    same experience um and I'm I'm just
  • 00:49:27
    trying to you know tell the story
  • 00:49:30
    encourage people um bring joy into
  • 00:49:33
    people's lives with with each action I
  • 00:49:35
    do each day because I feel like um the
  • 00:49:38
    world can be really hard really really
  • 00:49:40
    hard and if people work to make the
  • 00:49:42
    world a better place then it could
  • 00:49:44
    become a a paradise like an amazing
  • 00:49:46
    place but we have to put an effort to do
  • 00:49:48
    that and so that's what I'm big about in
  • 00:49:49
    my life and if you're having a hard time
  • 00:49:51
    this last part of the video is for you
  • 00:49:53
    and I just want to say to anybody that's
  • 00:49:56
    experien experiencing hardship uh it
  • 00:49:58
    could be Financial Health career family
  • 00:50:03
    um addiction depression um I know all
  • 00:50:07
    these feelings and hurts and I empathize
  • 00:50:10
    with you and I just want to say that I
  • 00:50:12
    love you and I care about you and um I'm
  • 00:50:15
    rooting for you and I'm praying for you
  • 00:50:16
    and I wanted to say this
  • 00:50:19
    prayer it's from Matthew 6 and this is
  • 00:50:22
    to anyone involved in the story that's
  • 00:50:24
    having a hard time um this includes
  • 00:50:27
    maybe people that like I see on super
  • 00:50:29
    song people post things that are like
  • 00:50:31
    there's
  • 00:50:32
    frustration um there's people that don't
  • 00:50:35
    like what I'm doing and I'm okay with
  • 00:50:37
    that I'm like that's fine like um and if
  • 00:50:39
    there's maybe something in their life
  • 00:50:41
    that's causing them to act in this
  • 00:50:43
    particular way this negative way like
  • 00:50:45
    I'm not going to sit here and tell
  • 00:50:47
    people like you can't be negative you
  • 00:50:49
    know because I don't know their
  • 00:50:50
    circumstances and perspectives are often
  • 00:50:52
    driven by
  • 00:50:53
    circumstances and circumstances can be
  • 00:50:55
    beyond our control so I'm just going to
  • 00:50:57
    pray for everybody pray for people that
  • 00:50:59
    are having a hard time today or um
  • 00:51:02
    experiencing negativity and maybe um
  • 00:51:05
    through prayer that negativity can turn
  • 00:51:07
    into positivity because I'm a big
  • 00:51:08
    believer in turning a negative into a
  • 00:51:11
    positive uh because that's something we
  • 00:51:13
    can try to do in our lives so from
  • 00:51:15
    Matthew 6 comes this passage it's Jesus
  • 00:51:18
    speaking and he says um after this
  • 00:51:23
    manner therefore pray ye Our Father
  • 00:51:26
    which are in in heaven Hallowed be thy
  • 00:51:27
    name thy kingdom come thy will be done
  • 00:51:30
    on Earth as it is in heaven give us this
  • 00:51:32
    day our daily bread and forgive us our
  • 00:51:35
    debts as we forgive our debtors and lead
  • 00:51:37
    us not into temptation but Deliver Us
  • 00:51:39
    from Evil for thine is the kingdom and
  • 00:51:42
    the power and the glory forever amen so
  • 00:51:44
    I'll just say you know God gave us this
  • 00:51:47
    day and we get to choose what we do with
  • 00:51:49
    it um I get today to go to a concert
  • 00:51:54
