Anyone participating in the GameStop short squeeze?
I got into GME tonight (assuming order is filled). Two puts for Oct @$44. $322 worth the fun to watch next few months.

I'm holding my last 2 shares of GME and my last 10 of AMC, looking for a little fun.

This post is two years old, out today is some news on "transparency" from hedge funds. They have to disclose the short sales to the Justice Department, apparently they will decide how much to short? or if false news created a reason?, banks stocks came to mind when they did that later on and almost caused big problems for a lot of banks.

Quote from link;
Oct 13 (Reuters) - The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Friday agreed to roll out new rules aimed at boosting transparency of short selling, the controversial practice of betting against stocks that drew new scrutiny amid the GameStop saga.

The rules, first proposed in late 2021 and early 2022, will require investors to report their short positions to the agency, and companies that lend out shares to report that activity to the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), a self-regulatory body that polices brokers.

There is a movie about this whole ordeal on Netflix called “Dumb Money”.

Not sure if there are any documentaries on it too.
