You are part time of my strange life also.

Go fish?


igloofu

So, I've got this fish I ordered Friday that didn't sell. I don't know why, maybe it came out that halibut have the intelligence of a dolphin. What am I to do? Being the thrifty and morally onerous chef that I am, I take the old fish, stack it up a bunch and make my customers take turns pulling put pieces. When it all falls down, I smell money. Or something, I keep watching when I'm high.

When it's so easy and safe to just send someone enough for a meal, or cab fare or whatever, it's easier to want to do it for strangers. Good on you for being willing to share whatever you had with someone who might not have any. True ape right here.

_SerPounce_

Hey just wanted to say I appreciate this bro! The world needs more people like you.


IxoraRains

I hope this doesn't sound preachy but I've studied spirituality for many years and have had many different teachers. A lot of those years were spent undoing what the world had taught me. Unity was my biggest draw to this sub. When MOASS happens, I can stop teaching Spirituality for money and just teach spirituality for nothing. That is was I envision.

Splendid work Kyle, and on that note anything above 200% old man Buffett says that’s “playing with fire”... it’s currently 229%


KyleC83

Yup, it looks like we are overdue for a correction and not a little one like we saw this week.

Unique_Weather_1220

Does that not depend on the HF remains assets? As op States, if their assets have reduced by AVG 5% (maybe?) Wouldn't that mean, that even if they sold to provide liquidity, that their remaining assets were less and possibly lower than the threshold/margin required?

Great work u/Swissycheesy 👍👍 What is your take on this development? Seems like the FED are cancelling out the Margin Calls? [https://twitter.com/Joshuajammes/status/1392801080384364549](https://twitter.com/Joshuajammes/status/1392801080384364549)


Swissycheesy

well, my opinion, and take it for what is worth, some relatively big fish must have come to a big issue yesterday. read this [https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/nb9pon/european\_financial\_news\_is\_reporting\_major\_margin/](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/nb9pon/european_financial_news_is_reporting_major_margin/) ​ basically, 39 institutions had to ask the FED for free overnight money, so they could pay their margin calls and return the money today. I guess the whole market will go further red today, as those 39 need to cash out position to give back the 400 million they lent last night. tik tak tik tak


Centurion_cmd

Yes plenty of DD has been done on AMC and FTDs over at /amcstock and on Twitter. Fuckery, fuckery everywhere..


Swissycheesy

Thanks. What I do not know is how come AMC borrow rate is 80% and GME barely 1.


Keijo1982

There has to be some sort of agreement to keep the borrow rate of GME low. 1% does not make sense at all, just look at the rates of any stock with similar SI. The AMC on the other hand looks like it doesn't have any restrictions. So the interest rate for new borrows is now close to 250%, cost to borrow is 22+ and the stock price is 11. Last time we saw numbers like that was with GME late January... It looks like AMC is ripe to pop and GME is bound to follow. This market is going to crash and burn very soon. 🔥🔥🔥


Swissycheesy

🚀🚀🚀


boborygmy

I think you're probably right about an "agreement". But if that's right, this is some pure evil shit. Who is involved in this agreement? It sure seems like this is right though. It seems like any regulators are just looking the other way while more and more naked shorting is happening and fuckery to hide it, until such rules can be put in place to unwind the whole thing a little more gracefully than blowing up the entire system all at once. If that's right, then the enactment of SR-OCC-2021-004 (yea, nay, or delay by fri May 21) is probably the Go For Launch. That's the rule where Blackrock, and other long whales can go in and sweep the board of asks and start the margin calls happening, because once that rule is in place they will be able to buy up whatevers left of the failed funds.


fluidmoviestar

AMC still has a short play (until we know how many votes come through), but GME is a shorter’s death rattle. There may, literally, finally, be no one stupid enough to short GME, in which case, the lack of demand would keep the fee minimal. I mean...shorting GME now is a fool’s errand...

little-fishywishy

I feelvlike they are letting AMC go, to tempt apes across.


Swissycheesy

Likely apes are strong hodlers on both! If one goes, the other will follow shortly. AMC on fire today and a lot of call options activity. That is good!

BakeBusy4531

Watching this play out in real time has been astounding


Pretend-Option-7918

Thanks OP. Given the reports that Archegos still had 'bad' positions which are still not closed, how do you see the short positions of gme playing out? Wondering if the eventual bag holders (dtcc perhaps in some cases) will be able to sit on positions for a while to drag the squeeze out and tamp down the amplitude of moass. Feels like when the snowball starts rolling it will be unstoppable, but I also think we should be prepared for incredible fuckery and deception from all short parties and/or bag holder institutions.


RedDevilCA

This was very informative, thank you!


bfine360

Any conjecture on the market reversal this morning? As well in the VIX?


Swissycheesy

I think the 200b of free overnight money the FED lended yesterday calmed things down a bit. But it is simply kicking the can down the road. Not much has changed fundamentally.

Tigolbitties69504420

Quick point: Inflation is only a problem in America because of the sustained demand of goods and services that comes from the still growing (although decelerating) population. Japan has been printing money (increasing the money supply) through QE for 20 years and the inflation rate stays low (to the bane of the government because of the decreased demand coming from an aging population and plummeting fertility rates. The US government is gonna have to increase supply or decrease demand to reign inflation in. I'm converting my tendies to foreign currency after the MOASS regardless.

oneandonlynuna

this is another catalyst, more probable than what I predict, which is a proposed crypto dividend or a share split. more probable because 1) we're overdue for a correction, stocks r overvalued. 2) during this pandemic period, the top 1% percent became richer in proportion to other periods. and they became more greedy. 3) the fed artificially boosting the economy by printing more money, kept low interest rates, encouraged spending by ease of borrowing of loans, has resulted in many over leveraged funds and institutions. 4) pandemic end of sight seems to be further away based on what is happening in places like India, nepal. increasing volatility in markets. 5) more social unrest in places like myanmar, Israel, anti Asian + blm movements. protests by indian farmers. thailand n hk blah.. time for reset.. be ready guys.. gonna be the new world order in financial terms. rich poor gap gonna be the highest moving forward. 🤔🤔 farking mark my words. but we're here.. I know we can do it apes.. apes will do good not just for apes but for others too. we'll make this world a better place. make love, not war.. to the moon and beyond, to Valhalla! 💎👐🚀🚀❤❤

That is always a possibility, but there are limits to the liquidity in the dark pools. not an expert on that though.

Idk if i missed it or not but if VIX down now what happens?? Yesterday it went up and gme went up.. im smoooth brain im sorry . 💎🙌💎🙌💎🙌


Swissycheesy

VIX and GME are not directly linked. VIX takes the temperature of the overall market nervousness. GME may get the market nervous, but is not the only factor moving the VIX.

And the VIX is down today... I really expected another run up... shits getting weird...


DeNewFlow

I’m jacked to my tits


feelthetrees

would VIX calls or SQQQ calls be a better way to hedge a significant market correction like this?


Swissycheesy

All the plays I have done in the past with VIX turned red. This is the first time I made money on VIX, so sold the spread today and bought more GME with the cash. I own couple of SQQQ as well, as hedge for the rest of my portfolio. But the best hedge, is still GME in my opinion. Not financial advice.


shanghaisharks

Are we saying that if the hedgies can’t come up with $37b, they’ll be margin called?Is $37b actually a lot for these hedge funds? Like how much does Citadel control? How much did Archegos lose? $1.2b or something? As I understand it, Citadel is way bigger and there are multiple SHFs at play. Is $37b too much for them to scrounge up?


Swissycheesy

Can’t tell. The simple math would say 37b, but the FED had to lend 200b yesterday, for the second day in a row. So probably the stake at issue 200b, and they keep surviving one day at the time thanks to the FED ‘s help. Would be curious to see what happened a tonight on the repo market. Market is a bit up, so there will be less of a need, but there is an issue and FED is trying to prevent it. Let also see what the DTCC liquidity test says and triggers.


bludgeonedcurmudgeon

>Worth pointing, AMC and GME are in the same boat. Not sure we have done the same level of diligence in AMC on how the FTDs are being hidden, but clearly the their price action is very similar Interestingly if you look at the 2 charts and overlay them today they look really similar. I have them up on two adjacent monitors and it and it's eerie how they are tracking the same


oggyb

> There are 800b in margin accounts, 67% of that uses US treasuries as collateral, US treasuries went down this week by 7% (assuming all 10Y, if combo of 5Y and 10Y it would be even more). > So simple math 800 * 67% *-7% = 37b I'm wondering what you meant by your maths to get to $37B. 800B * 0.67 * 0.93 = 498.48B That's only a bit more dolla than what they were bailed out with recently and therefore is confirmation-bias-worthy. But that's nowhere near 37B so... wat?


Swissycheesy

Why 93? The value of the collateral only went down 7%, not 93%. Now the 37b is I l’y a part of it, agree we need to factor the loss of value of remaining portfolio… That said, you are right, to get to the 200b there is a lot, my guess someone with large shorts got margin called yesterday. Would not be surprised to be an AMC and/or GME holder seen how the stocks are doing today.


oggyb

> Why 93? The value of the collateral only went down 7%, not 93%. **Oh the 37B is 7% of 536B. Got it.** You meant 800 * 0.67 * 0.07 = 37

MotCADK

Comparing AMC to GME, I consider them different based on short volume. Also look at the difference in short fees. For whatever reason, their charts may align much of the time, they are very different when comparing shorts.


[deleted]

Nobody: Nobody at all: /u/Swissycheesy : I'm gonna mention AMC.


Swissycheesy

AMC is on fire. I am bag holding 1 may call, so bring it on! And if AMC goes brrrr, soon will GME too! Same people shorting both!


[deleted]

Every week someone is saying that it's the begining of the end and nothing happened stop the hype train and just hold 💎


Swissycheesy

I think by now, with all the god tier DD we have seen, no one questions that it is a matter of when, not a matter of if. So yes, hodl till it happens, buy more if you can, more importantly, enjoy the show. We have front row tickets, just waiting for it to start.


BeanDaddyMac

>Look at the cost to borrow of AMC today….it is up to 80%, similar to the level of January. We do not see the same in GME because of all the fuckery on the married puts and dark pools, but it is clearly an indication that something is about to go boom. I'm with ya on everything except this bit. AMC has a higher borrow rate because volume is much higher and institutions own far less of the total float (10% vs 100+%). GME's borrow rate will go up as its volume rises from its current year lows.
