You don't understand. The original multi million dollar positions with WSB are static now. They're not trading anymore. They can't possibly boost the stock price any further.

The way the stock price goes up is by more volume coming in at the highs. But we are talking 57 M shares traded at noon today with outstanding float of 65M. Those are professional day traders propelling the stock. Buying high and selling higher. It's not WSB.




Margin calls are surely coming for large short positions, starting Friday and likely continuing in coming weeks. If the short positions need to cover, there's forced demand.


The stock went 20 -> 300, surely whatever short positions there are were long ago margin called.
