    Nothing like a little GME action to help repair the dent TSLA put in my trading account last week. lol

    I’ll let 1 share ride just in case.

    Any update on short interest? TSLA is out, no sign of GME.

    At least when I told my wife "this story's not over" I can claim a victory! I'm still holding from about $330 (riiiiight before Robinhood buying was halted). This is a positive boost to my mood given I'd pretty much accepted all the loss at this point.

    Tomorrow will not be a productive workday.

    Haha the Second Battle of Gamestop is joined. Amazing. I'm not going to lie here, I thought about throwing some cash at it when it was $45 a share but hesitated. I might have to sit this one out since I missed my chance but let's see how this one goes.

    Short interest is listed as 60ish % of fliat, down from 78% 2 weeks ago, though obviously there are no shares available.

    I assume this is more of a hedge fund vs hedge fund affair this time around. Gonna be an interesting open.

    Sold 2/5 of my shares at $136 and $149 to get back to "an amount of investment I'm willing to lose'. Holding at least half of the remaining til $420.69.

    I still have no clue who that guy is. Some say he was a Wall Street mathematician/programmer.

    He explains who he is if you run through his timeline. He claims to have had a hand in programming trading bots and apparently has access to a lot of capital to invest in GME, which it appears he did yesterday.

    Surprised GME has staved off crashing down to yesterday's close. Almost dipped below $100, but now hovering around $130.

    I did a while back but there's nothing that's verifiable. He sure loves to be dramatic though.

    Going with more of a "stainless steel hands" policy today. Slowly selling a few on the way up.

    Turning back into a pumpkin it looks like. Maybe it'll bounce since it was way lower earlier today.

    It's Godzilla vs. King Kong right now. My money's on Godzilla. I threw in for a few shares at around $130 near midday, let's see what I'm in for tomorrow.
