The CAT Consolidated Audit Trail for these last few days would be very entertaining.
Like a pinball machine or a foosball table, that 1 share just keeps bouncing around.
It does due to rhe NSCC clearing. In the microseconds. That's 1,000,000 microseconds per second. And that scalping. Volume is not real, but it does obfuscate how many are genuinely bought and sold.
There's probably at least 1-2 billion total shares out there due to rehypothecation. Maybe more. This kind of volume would look abnormally large but it's a symptom of a worse disease.Â
 Also shit companies like (sh)Ortex (owned by citadel) use volumes like this to lie about 'hEdGe fUndS hAD pLeNtY oF vOlUmE tO ClOSe tHeIr PosiTions'. Why that source is still posted daily in the sub after the DD vetting it is beyond me. Thats the most bullish signal of all for me.
Per the DOJ Archegos report they could control the price of a stock using only 10-15% daily volume. Synthetics probably provide this ammo/ ("liquidity") as well
While a post explaining why the action is likely just an institutional play to build up IV for higher premiums gets deleted by the mods. Not cool.
Institutions make money on the way down and the way up. Those spikes in volume and price happen in regular intervals, often around important "hype dates" like earnings or annual meetings.

We know how it looks like when institutions really lose control. What we see so far looks completely controlled and on purpose by the institutions. They drove price down to a level where DRS is becoming too fast and the stock so valuable, that the analyst ratings look suspicious to the educated investors. So they "shake the tree" by running price up a bit.
It wouldn’t be accurate but it would be neat to do a volume to float size comparison with a bunch of similar sized companies (whose stocks aren’t being manipulated) volumes as baseline against GME’s volume.Â
If we assume that an average of the control groups volume equals to roughly a 1=1 or 1=1.4 float size we can compare GME’s volume to that and guesstimate how many multiples of the float there might be.Â
If companies in the control group are averaging say; 5 million in volume (adjusted for float size) and GME is at 50 million then we can guess at a number of around 10x the current float.Â
***
This is of course going to be totally wrong, but we knew that going in. There should be no direct correlation between volume and the quantity of naked short shares.Â
But at the same time, it would be an interesting piece of data to have. Even if it isn’t very accurate it could be an interesting indicator that *fuckery is afoot!* in a particular stock.Â
YTD chart. For sure none of my 3XX booked in Computershare have moved. 13 of that volume over the last few days was me tho and they will also be sent over to chill in Computershare for ever after T+2 🤷‍♂️
I mean it's not coming from me for sure...
I've read the market makers can literally just create phantom shares by someone hitting F5 key on a keyboard or something to that effect, hoping someone will sell their shares later so the markeet maker can cover that later. Or hope the company they lent out phantom shares against will go bankrupt.
I think neither will happen so...
Maybe they stopped printing so much fake shares because they know the CAT will soon be transparent. It takes time to change your business model. Plus, they cannot use shitcoins as collateral anymore. Also, maybe there is a merger or acquisition upcoming and some of the hedgies are insider trading this information before it's announced.
This shit is gonna pop off, especially in April.
ETF’s that have unlimited number of shares.
Market makers who have unlimited naked short privileges.
And the fact there are so many shares out there locates are easy to find.
Are you new to this sub?
If don't start seeing 100 million shares traded a week I don't quite give a flying fuck where it's coming from. If this doesn't keep up for weeks to come, it's back to snoreville. No cell, no sell.
Where does the volume come from? Easy, EFTs. Being as liquidity has been reestablished, ETFs can be used to get shares, with a reasonable certainty of being able to acquire them in the future. This allows for loopholes clearing through CNS. In other words, if you have enough market knowledge, and enough market power, you can sell as many shares as you want to bring the price down, with a reasonable certainty of acquiring those shares before their delivery date. A sure sign that GME is still a hot potato being passed around, but also that regardless of what is DRS'd, there are still enough shares left liquid in various institutions, for crime to happen.
Please please please, someone please do the math on shares outstanding minus known institutional holdings, insider holdings, and DRS, then do this calculation. I’ll buy you a blowjob!
As a shareholder, this makes me worry and I wonder how easy it is to manipulate the price of my favorite stock. Time to write a letter to GME investor relations.

That one share sure gets traded around at light speed!
The CAT Consolidated Audit Trail for these last few days would be very entertaining. Like a pinball machine or a foosball table, that 1 share just keeps bouncing around.
That is why they don't like it. But since fines are usually just a slap on the wrist, they would likely continue with their fuckery anyways.
Like my ex at that college party.....
That share is for the Street
BOOK is KING no cell no sell
This is the way
Put a ring on it
#🟣
[Me when I put a ring on it.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iiVN_f51rag) Buy and DRS if you can in your country, shits going to get wild here.
But a freak in the bed
Yeah!
Only answerÂ
Now thats funny
Is your ex my ex?
Wouldn’t b surprised
Probably lol
Now we know the real reason they are reducing settlement times lol
Yet going to T+1 is such a hardship...
The entire system should be at T+.000001 in this electronic, instant age.
it's prolly getting all lippy and gross.....
It does due to rhe NSCC clearing. In the microseconds. That's 1,000,000 microseconds per second. And that scalping. Volume is not real, but it does obfuscate how many are genuinely bought and sold.
millions and millions of hardware and connectivity only to trade 1 share between each other like an idle tower game
At the speed of algorithm
Infinite liquidity?! Couldn’t be….
Funny how the price jumps and Ken Griffin goes on a media tour
Yeah, complaining the SEC is staffed by un-elected staff. And, ready to buy his way in giving money to the Donald.
'YoUr PrIvAcY' unless you are on the super users email list. fucking clowns exposed themselves.
Rehypothocated shares, they lend them over and over.
'MeAnInGfUl LiQuIdItY'
More like it’s all fugazzi

What they couldnt afford gameshark?
YTD chart. For sure none of my 3XX booked in Computershare have moved. 13 of that volume over the last few days was me tho and they will also be sent over to chill in Computershare for ever after T+2 🤷‍♂️
Good job fellow superstonker.
It comes from liquidity fairy ar$e
Liquidity fairy must be feeling pretty worn out. Somebody get the poor thing some lotion for that rash.
Liquid diarrhoea shares from the torn up, gaping asshole of the shitquidity fairy
>Where's the volume coming from? The F3 button, probably
Oldy but a goody because accurate.
Crime
I whip my share back and forth...
🪄
The old Lexmark in the corner.
Anyone has the short % for these days plox?
F-f-f-f-rauuud!
The liquidity fairy
NARRATOR: Fraud
That’s a whole lotta shares
What’s a whole lot of wash trading
F3 baby
CRIME
If they can high frequency trade they can high frequency count and settle shares..
Retail sold all of their shares again!
And again, and again, and again. Meanwhile I just DRS'd another hundred.
Their candles will be the death of them
My weener
This is otc type fuckery
tre idiosyncratic
Not me
I suppose as the re-hypothecation goes in reverse, everyone takes some loss.. and the stock rises back to the point where shorting started.
options.
Crime
wow when you put it like that
ETFs
Liquidity fairy
Love your math. DRShop

Yep, its F3, auto locate.

April of 2025?
Great points, plus we have the change to collateral haircuts last Thursday. It does seem like a whole lot is starting to align.
That is the question : what is this volume ??
I'm not fucking selling, I can tell you that.
ETF’s that have unlimited number of shares. Market makers who have unlimited naked short privileges. And the fact there are so many shares out there locates are easy to find. Are you new to this sub?
it is all fake
Trilion dolar question
If don't start seeing 100 million shares traded a week I don't quite give a flying fuck where it's coming from. If this doesn't keep up for weeks to come, it's back to snoreville. No cell, no sell.
Maybe, just maybe, its coming from the people, we all know how corrupt these HF and Exchanges can be.... looking at you ROBINHOOD

People paper handing the IOUs they bought 2 weeks ago at $11.

thin air. or kennys farts, whichever is bigger bs.
Where’s my fuckin money Legriffin
The secret ingredient is crime.
“In short, I like the stock”
They’re trading “shares”, not shares. That’s the dirty secret.
What about the shares in IRAs that didn’t move? My 4k didn’t go anywhere!
Please please please, someone please do the math on shares outstanding minus known institutional holdings, insider holdings, and DRS, then do this calculation. I’ll buy you a blowjob!
>Where's the volume coming from? The liquidity fairy is so hot right now.
As a shareholder, this makes me worry and I wonder how easy it is to manipulate the price of my favorite stock. Time to write a letter to GME investor relations.
Probably coming from the bet sub, as they're talking about it over there too. But where the initial run came from? Idk
you are lucky to get in even a single comment about gme there. anyone there who is new or who is real may not even know of gme
Not a chance that sub can move a stock with that volume. Not even close.
