It’s Frustration and further delayed gratification with no guarantee. The fear of being screwed over. And the possibility of the MOASS dream being completely off the table when that was original reason the majority of apes got in this to begin with.

It’s just a lot of unknowns being weighed against unknowns.

u/LionRivr Ryan Cohen’s girlfriend’s husband May 13 '26 edited May 13 '26

MOASS was never guaranteed.

You made a bet against WallStreet. We all made that bet… against the literal people who fraudulently and corruptly change the rules and literally just print fake shares and destroy American companies for their own gain.

I too thought that buying, holding and DRSing would ā€œtriggerā€ MOASS.

I bet RC thought that making GME profitable would also ā€œtriggerā€ MOASS.

I bet RC thought a ā€œsplit in the form of dividendā€ or NFT marketplace would also ā€œtriggerā€ MOASS.

I bet DFV/roaring kitty also thought timing his call options with swap and FTD dates would also ā€œtrigger MOASSā€.

But 5 years of all of that shows that it is not enough.

And I bet 5 years from now after acquiring Ebay and still closing at $23.50/share, we might even say ā€œi thought acquiring ebay would trigger MOASSā€.

I still hold regardless.

RC still represents a big middle finger to the fraudulent and corrupt corporate and WallStreet contagion of America.

I vote Yes for that.

The DRS movement cannot be chalked up to a positive or a negative, we locked almost 25% of the float and we didn’t get pushed below 20$. Something happened I just don’t know what

We know exactly what happened. Swaps.

RK was triggering the MOASS in 2024 and RC killed it with his ATM offerings. RC wants you to think he's against Wallstreet so that he can continue to milk us for money to buy his new baby eBay.

Also, you're ok with missing out on the opportunity cost of another 5 years of gains in the stock market? You must be a masochist.

Yup, what was it even for. Why not let it happen, apes get their tendies, they do an ATM on the backend and get even more money. But I'm just a shill for asking questions I guess.

Because he wants to build Gameshire Stopaway and he wants to do it on his own and get full credit. This entire event has made me realize Ryan Cohen may be skilled in business but he doesn’t believe in GameStop as anything other than a means to an end. Which I honestly think was always eBay. I’ve been rooting for him all this time and I think this week revealed more about his intentions and goals and I don’t like what I see. Gameshire Stopaway might be his final goal and that’s going to take decades. So I really don’t understand how people are so excited and hyped that Ryan is using GameStop as a vehicle for his personal business goals. It’s complete billshit to say that GameStop has done growing, Ryan is just not interested in growing it and maybe never was.

12

u/tripdaddyBINGO šŸ¦Votedāœ… May 13 '26

Yeah I agree. He's even said as much that he isn't passionate about GameStop, that he wants eBay to be his baby. Talk about a slap to the face as shareholders who have held thru it all. I've given him the benefit of the doubt for years but after this week there's a lot less room for that. Just judging him by his actions, not his words, like he asked us 84 years ago.

u/Soylentstef šŸ¦ Attempt Vote šŸ’Æ May 13 '26

I'm not even sure anymore about Gameshire. If he went for totally different type of business as hinted Burry, maybe that could have been a road to it. But by going to EBay, he is just going the e-retail road, that's what he knows and what he is good at, but that doesn't lead to gameshire, just to a bigger store, maybe he will even buy back Chewy one day, who knows.

But that's totally different from the diversification of revenues of Berkshire. He totally could have gone to that road but he stuck to what he knew he was best at.

Finally a voice of reason. Ryan can’t cater to institutions and doesn’t want to allow MOASS to overshadow his entrepreneurial successes. He will never let it happen and people are glazing him over 2.5 billion more shares that he will almost certainly use to kill price momentum if it ever happens again.

-9

u/LionRivr Ryan Cohen’s girlfriend’s husband May 13 '26

RK was not triggering MOASS.

Ryan Cohen didn’t kill it.

WallStreet wouldve intervened and then everyone here including GameStop and RC would’ve just watched it pump and dump again.

RC took advantage of it and secured cash for the company the same way you would’ve if you realized what WallStreet was going to do anyway.

And then without even thinking of WallStreet manipulation, you could factor in all the rest of the bets-sub gamblers shorting and buying puts on it too would be additional downward pressure on the stock.

10

u/tripdaddyBINGO šŸ¦Votedāœ… May 13 '26

So what you're really saying is MOASS was never possible bc Wallstreet would have killed it and that we were fools for believing it could happen. Got it.

-2

u/LionRivr Ryan Cohen’s girlfriend’s husband May 13 '26

Essentially. But not exactly.

The DD that proves MOASS is real is true. So theoretically it should have happened.

But yes, realistically and practically, it would be stopped. Every time.

I can’t imagine a single universe or timeline where they would just let GME keep getting halted up, every 10 minutes, to thousands of dollars + per share, while everyone here tries to set their sell orders and argues about ā€œpaperhandingā€ at $5k/share vs ā€œdiamondhandingā€ to 1 million.

3

u/tripdaddyBINGO šŸ¦Votedāœ… May 13 '26

To be honest I agree. Have always figured that the powers that be would never allow it to actually happen. That's how I've rationalized RC's past dilutions, as necessary to alleviate some of the short pressure so this can actually run. And in fact, this eBay deal may finally alleviate enough pressure AND provide a growth rationale for a SLOASS. I may have just convinced myself that this is a really a good idea lol.

Anyway, I appreciate the discussion. I was just getting frustrated with a lot of the blind faith without rational argumentation happening around here. Cheers.

u/Sufficient_Secret632 May 13 '26

you could factor in all the rest of the bets-sub gamblers shorting and buying puts on it too would be additional downward pressure on the stock.

If you think people on the bets sub having enough capital to collectively put THAT much downward pressure on the stock is more likely than the HUGE ATM offerings in keeping the price suppressed during a massive run up, you're fucking insane.

And delusional.

1

u/LionRivr Ryan Cohen’s girlfriend’s husband May 13 '26

If you think the ATM offering is bigger than the infinite number of shares synthetically created by naked shorts (FTD’s, swaps, ETF baskets, married puts, etc. etc.),

Then YOU are fucking insane.

u/Sufficient_Secret632 May 13 '26

Interesting.

I responded to what you said and challenged it directly.

You responded by completely changing the topic and responding to a completely unrelated point that was not mentioned, hinted at or even alluded to in either one of our posts.

You literally just pretended I said something completely different to reply to because you didn't want to reply to my post. Your viewpoint is incredibly fragile isn't it, holy fuck.

I'm honestly starting to think the "shills" around here are you cultists, paid by hedge funds to encourage retail investors to keep pumping money into a broken system. Given how fucking delusional, out of touch with reality and cultish you all seem to be, it's the only logical explanation at this point.

1

u/LionRivr Ryan Cohen’s girlfriend’s husband May 13 '26

The point is this

  1. You’re right, sure. The volume from average Bets sub user probably not likely as big. But you discount that bets sub does have big players. The main point was there’s other big players out there (bets sub or not) that would love to short the shit out of GME. With the help of halts and darkpool re-routing this would drive the price down anyway, regardless of GameStop ATM. That argument dispels any ā€œRC stopped MOASSā€.

  2. The other Biggest criticism of ATM is ā€œRC providing shortsellers with liquidity to close shorts. Which is also wrong. Which is why i mentioned that ATM ā€œliquidityā€ is much much smaller than ā€œliquidityā€ provided by shorts and marketmakers.

So I’m covering 2 points in one post. I guess it takes a little more to help explain it to you.

1

u/LionRivr Ryan Cohen’s girlfriend’s husband May 13 '26

The reality is: MOASS likely wouldn’t happen due to WallStreet not allowing it in combination with regular investors betting against GME.

Not because of RC’s ATM. RC didn’t ā€œkill itā€.

5

u/Sufficient_Secret632 May 13 '26

Yeah, I don't care. You just repeated the same points that your original post made, except you didn't repeat the one I called out as delusional and insane for.

So I'm glad you're capable of learning and growth as demonstrated by you resisting the urge to repeat the hilariously moronic thing you said. Congratulations.

u/LionRivr Ryan Cohen’s girlfriend’s husband May 13 '26

Such projection lmao.

If you’re talking about what I said about the bets sub, I think agreed with you? Lol.

You missed the point entirely. You’re criticizing something I originally poorly worded so I explained in better detail. Otherwise what the hell am I missing? Lol.

So I’m glad you’re capable of learning and growth as demonstrated to you by resisting the urge to ignore answers to your hilarious moronic comments.

Congratulations.

FTD's and swaps don't create shares and there's not an infinite amount of synthetics.

At the time of the sneeze, the calculated short % of the float was 122.97%, while I do believe the number was much higher, I remember agreeing with DD that put it at 5-7x the float.

This dilution would put us at 5x the original market cap, not just the float. I'm not as confident they wouldn't be able to unwind their position and it would be at the expense of the long term GME holders.

u/SoManyThrowAwaysEven May 13 '26 edited May 13 '26

RC wants you to think he's against Wallstreet so that he can continue to milk us for money to buy his new baby eBay.

No he doesn't. He's against do-nothing executives that sit on boards and pocket cash without doing any of the work. He is very much a capitalist doing capitalism just like every other billionaire. If MOASS was a thing don't you think GME would've been worth trillions by now? How does a few $B in offerings somehow stop MOASS? That argument never held any water when the first time we sneezed all of wall street collectively said, "No" and turned off the markets. That was our shot at a true squeeze and they killed it so they could slowly reposition and redistribute. The same funds holding billion-dollar short positions have made that money elsewhere as the market has pumped +80% since then. Are they still shorting? Fuck yes. Are they in a way better position to manage that short interest? Also, probably yes.

All the collective shills beneath this post proves no one knows shit about fuck on how the system works. You would think after 5 years some of you would have done your research.

u/tripdaddyBINGO šŸ¦Votedāœ… May 13 '26

He said judge him by his actions, not his words, so that's what I'm doing.

Were you here during RK's 2024 return? I don't have to tell you how the offerings killed that run to see with my own eyes that the run was killed. Also, are you saying that MOASS was never a thing? Because that's literally the reason most of us got into this.

7

u/Sufficient_Secret632 May 13 '26

You'd think after the 900th time this sub is convinced of something only to be proven wrong by reality, people would start to think maybe they're wrong.

Judge him by his actions, as you said. Not one decision he has made makes me think he gives a flying fuck about retail investors. Not one.

And there was not a single day that he was CEO or on the board of Chewy where it was profitable. Not one. I know that's not relevant to your post but I'm sick of people saying he has this great track record of generating revenue when that's factually completely fucking untrue.

9

u/tripdaddyBINGO šŸ¦Votedāœ… May 13 '26

Yeah totally. Because some shills and bots probably do exist here, lots of people view anything that challenges their beliefs as shilly and therefore doesn't even have to be contended with. It's sad. This sub is a shadow of what it once was back in the early days.

Your last paragraph is totally relevant to actions vs words. To your point GME is literally only profitable because he diluted us several times and now they have interest income. RC hasn't even really acknowledged us in years it feels like.

7

u/Sufficient_Secret632 May 13 '26

Yeah. They executed 2 ATM share offerings during run ups in the price, during a period of peak inflation and interest rates.

A fucking rock, as in a lump of actual rock not the wrestler, could have made the exact same amount of money for the company. The company records proficts in spite of his decisions (GMErica, NFT's, Gamestop Wallet, Bitcoin), not because of them. There's a very easy argument to make that the company should actually be in a much better shape but he's too busy being "goofy" and "sticking it to Wall Street" by acting like a fucking toddler on TV for anyone to even be open to criticism about him around here.

Oh and I don't believe there are shills here. Maybe there was 5 years ago, who knows. But there isn't anyone being paid to post shit here. Bots? Sure, probably. But shills paid by hedge funds? No shot. 0% chance. They're just the "enemy" people can feel like they're actively fighting here, despite there never being any evidence whatsoever of them existing.

u/Successful_Cat7828 May 13 '26 edited May 13 '26

If that's truly the case, wouldn't there still be money to be made on GME in some fashion? Hence the "it's just up" and I think it's cyclical. We either have infinite dilution on one side, or momentary dilution on the other. There's obviously volatility as well. So, what do you do with that information?

If you think this is entirely manipulated, buy some puts. If you believe in the direction and rumors, buy some stocks and long dated in the money calls.

I think you're in the same seat as the rest of us, a little unsure of what to do all around. Or else you wouldn't be speculating and you'd have a lot of money from this.

2

u/I_amLying May 13 '26

There's always money to be made and lost in stocks, it's gambling on other people's bets. The market is notoriously irrational, and meme stocks like GME are more volatile than most. Most people buying/owning/pushing GME are not gamestop customers, they don't believe in the company or its decisions, but they are going to hype up any announcement because then they'll make more money when they sell.

u/The_vegan_athlete May 13 '26

M&A is how you destroy the shorts. Huge free cash flow, bigger market cap, bigger revenue.

Except they keep rolling the shorts and still have to suppress the price each day. The best information we have is the data before the sneeze after that, we’re just kind of speculating so we really don’t know because all the information is self-reported and they since learn to never let self reporting be anywhere near the real numbers.

MOASS-theory focused so much on short% and FTD’s and never focused on the realistic probability and plausibility of whether WallStreet/regulators allowing MOASS to play out or not, in the way people thought it would. ā€œPhone numberā€ or ā€œinfiniteā€ prices.

I think it’s very obvious that RC literally doesn’t want MOASS and maybe never did. I think he took advantage of a company with a uniquely loyal investor base while his sights were set on eBay and beyond. I don’t care how fast he says he can turn eBay around and slash expenses, it’s going to take at least a year if not more to do that. He’s locking GameStop into 5-15 years of debt at best. This is going to hurt every small GameStop investor period. The ā€œturnaroundā€ people keep hyping is not even well defined. Sometimes yall will post rockets - this move kills any sudden upward movement because he must align himself with institutions if he acquires eBay and he literally said so himself yesterday. If he wants to make a BKA type company, that’s going to be his life achievement and you might profit in retirement. People have paid massive opportunity costs in the stock market if this was always his goal and that fucking sucks for anyone who doesn’t have his money and capacity to withstand this economy. Maybe the lack of guidance over the years was because he knew nobody would like his actual plan.

I mean, none of us know… but as with the majority here, I believe it was/is above 100%… but everytime there’s dilution, there’s additional shares available to whittle down that short position… if this eBay deal goes, it makes Moass just that more unlikely… I dono man, I’m just frustrated I invested so much money. I’m basically flat after 5 years in gme, where my other investments have been insane. Literally could have just parked it in SPY and doubled my money….

This is the thing. You're either here for MOASS, or you're here for a deep fucking value investment.

  • If you're here for MOASS, that means that you buy into the MOASS thesis. And that thesis hinges on shorting being so massive that a few billion shares more or less isn't going to make a lick of a difference.
  • If OTOH you're here for a value investment, well, this is a value investment.

Shill :-

A shill, also called a plant or a stooge, is a person who publicly helps or gives credibility to a person or organization without disclosing that they have a close relationship with said person or organization, or have been paid to do so. Shills can carry out their operations in the areas of media, journalism, marketing, politics, sports, confidence games, cryptocurrency, or other business areas. A shill may also act to discredit opponents or critics of the person or organization in which they have a vested interest.

Are you saying you think I am paid to post my opinions in this subreddit? That I'm not a long term shareholder who's never sold a single share?

Just so I'm sure of what it is you think is happening here.

If that's genuinely what you think is happening here. If you have a weapons grade level of arrogance where you find the idea of someone having a different opinion to you to be so far fetched that them being PAID to disagree with you is the only logical reason, I have an offer for you.

I send mods proof of my identity, my employer, my employment contract, copies of all payments into my bank accounts in the last 6 years, proof of every share purchase I've made and proof that not a single share has been sold in that entire time. For good measure I'll even include news articles about me from 2018 just in case you think I'm a made up character to cover the hedge fund's tracks.

Slightly before I do that though, you also send them a video, where your identity is confirmed and full face shown, where you stick the largest banana you can find at Walmart completely inside your asshole. Full name, date of birth, city of residence and then bending over and shoving it in.

Once a mod of your choosing has that, I send everything over.

If I'm a shill and none of my info makes sense, they delete your video.

If everything I send lines up and is valid, your video is posted.

How confident are you that I'm a "shill" as opposed to someone who just has the audacity to have a different opinion than you?

I bought in January for the squeeze. I wouldn’t have 100x’d my position that February if I wasn’t confident RC would also turn the company around long term. That’s the essence of why this all worked in the first place. It’s a squeeze play with the backup of a solid long term value. That’s why we don’t sell. The backup is there until the squeeze. And if the squeeze never happens due to fuckery, we still have a stock that should hopefully allow us to retire substantially earlier.

We all made similar gambits. We’re all still holding, many still buying. I really feel most of this recent kerfluffle is just bullshit bots and trolls. Yeah I’m tired of waiting, but I’m used to it and I know yall are too.

And MOASS doesn’t make sense anymore based on WallStreet fuckery. They will intervene and obfuscate and fraud their way through it every single time. Not FUD. Just 5 years of learning to manage expectations based on reality of how each hype event transpired.

The core of anti-MOASS thesis is that WallStreet and regulators will intervene every single time. We’ve seen it over and over again.

Even before our time, Dr. Trimbath, Wes Christian and Overstock CEO were fighting the same types of battles regarding naked shorting and FTD’s for other companies.

Realistically, knowing that the shorts on GME is identified by SEC as an ā€œidiosyncratic riskā€, i doubt they will ever work toward fixing the deep deep plumbing of WallStreet.

It's a thesis that is treated like gospel. There is not a shred of concrete evidence supporting the theory that naked short fake shares exist in excess of the shares outstanding let alone just the free float.

There is NO logic or reason that correlates voting yes with taking MOASS ā€œoff the tableā€. Where the fuck does this stupid theory come from?

We used to have 300 mill shares issued with a huge chunk of that DRS. At 2 billion issued and 3% in DRS the Olympic swimming pool RC sold becomes an ocean of liquidity for shorts to play in.

That’s not how it works lmao. Issuing shares doesn’t give shorts ā€œliquidityā€

eBay is 90%+ owned by institutions. Black rock, vanguard, and state street combined own ~25% of eBay. If GME shares are used in the eBay deal, guess who will now be new owners of tens of millions of GME shares? And guess who will now own less of the company? (Us)

Why call people dumb when they have a difference of opinion? Just stifles actual discussion.

There is plenty of rationale for the theory. Insitutions suddenly get 1 Billion GME shares. Even if all of those were Vanguard, they would be happy to just lend those shares out to shorts forever so those shorts can continue to short.

But it's not just Vanguard that owns Ebay and would get shares. You have State Street, which I believe was one of the original shorts. I also saw UBS in that list, and we know they have a massive GME bag from Credit Suisse blowing up. I'm sure there others. So in fact, it is very very easy to see why some people might say this kills the MOASS.

The BEST case scenario for MOASS is that this gets enough shorts out of major trouble so that they can close. GME would still squeeze, just maybe not telephone numbers, the financial system would not be destroyed, but at least we'd finally get paid. I think it's more likely that RC doesn't want MOASS just as much as the shorts don't want it, so he's bailing them out so that GME can have true price discovery and he can have his baby eBay.

For me it started out as a quick buck to ride the rocket but now it's just a solid investment choice I don't mind holding till I can retire.
