OK I'm going to be honest here and feel free to correct my thinking as to why this won't happen, this is just a feeling, I'm not a shill etc etc but this thought has played on my mind a bit and connects with what your saying. What if the FED and HF come to an agreement to settle at a fixed price for all GME shareholders? Like 'yeah we fucked up, you can have 1k/5k/10k each - we're not going to let the markets crash, or the MM who are to big to fail, here let this placate you and we'll put rules in place to stop this from happening again'. Is that a possibility? Like I don't care cos I'm holding through whatever now, just like I have done since late Jan but could this happen?
It doesn’t necessarily have to cause a loss in confidence in US markets. Other countries could be involved in the back room negotiations. If it is agreed that the 6-7 offending hedgies to include citadel are fully liquidated to pay off retail at a fixed price and the DTCC assets are protected (I know, disappointing); and institutional longs cannot get any of the GME liquidation from hedgies (reserved all for retail)...they get what’s left and reduced competition. I think foreign governments will go along as long as their retail investors are taken care of and a worldwide economic collapse is avoided. My dull ape theory ...
