The rise and fall of GameStop's stock in 2021 became a landmark event in financial history, captured in the recent film "Dumb Money." This saga, fueled by unprecedented social media buzz and retail investor sentiment, culminated in a historic short squeeze and raised critical questions about market access and regulatory oversight.
The Spark: A Sentiment-Driven Squeeze
GameStop, facing declining brick-and-mortar sales, became a target for short sellers who saw its business model as outdated. However, a surge of online optimism, primarily on platforms like Reddit and Twitter, ignited a buying frenzy among retail investors. This sentiment-driven buying pressure triggered a dramatic short squeeze, propelling the stock price to dizzying heights in January 2021.
The Fallout: Buy Buttons and Direct Registration
While the price eventually corrected, the social media fervor persisted. Concerns about trading restrictions implemented by certain brokers during the squeeze further fueled the fire. This led retail investors to embrace Direct Registration of Shares (DRS), a process that removes shares from the clutches of brokers and places them directly with the company. The goal: to limit the availability of shares for shorting and potentially trigger another squeeze.
DRS: A Unique Market Phenomenon
With over 74 million shares DRS'd as of the last earnings report, GameStop represents a unique case in market history. No other non-penny stock has witnessed such a large-scale withdrawal of shares from the open market by retail investors. This unprecedented scenario has created a volatile market dynamic with the potential for significant price movements.
Technical Analysis: Signs of a Potential Breakout
GameStop's price chart exhibits classic characteristics of a stock primed for a short squeeze breakout. Price consolidation since the 2021 squeeze, falling volume and volatility, and rising short interest are all potential indicators of pent-up pressure.
The Socioeconomic and Elliott Wave Perspective
Analyzing market movements through a socioeconomic and Elliott Wave lens, we recognize the crucial role of collective sentiment and mood in driving stock prices. GameStop's price trajectory aligns with a clear 5-wave Elliott Wave pattern, suggesting a potential return to all-time highs and beyond.
Potential for Government Intervention
The exponential counterparty risks associated with a potential GameStop squeeze raise concerns about systemic market instability. Government intervention, in some form, cannot be ruled out to mitigate the potential fallout of unrecoverable margin calls on significant market players.
The Sequel Awaits: A Story Unfolding
As time unfolds, the GameStop saga continues to evolve, captivating both financial experts and retail investors alike. Whether a sequel to the "Dumb Money" film materializes remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: the story of GameStop is far from over, with its potential consequences for the market attracting keen attention worldwide

Shes got legsssss (in my ZZ Top voice)!!!
GME has major legs right now and is definitely using them.
I think its safe to say that its officially squeezing as we predicted
How high this goes- who knows
Expecting a huge gap down on Monday and then from there let the shenanigans begin
Putting a couple of targets on the chart but the best thing to do really is watch key levels (e.g. previous highs), pivots and volume

price action is definitely corrective in nature since the run up...
Thinking we may tracing out a triangle and if this is correct expect a sizeable runup and then a break back down before we continue higher...

If GME is going to squeeze then now would be an ideal time
See our other post on SPX and XLF for details but the broader market is in a perilous position
GME shorts are going to have some tough decisions to make coming up as soon as tomorrow (early next week if SPX/XLF price consolidates)
Chart shows the levels that we think will have explosive price movements

We said on 05/09 that GME Shorts would have some tough decisions to make come early this week...well here we are
Price during the pre-market session is directly within the target we called out last week...
Expecting to open higher and then head lower before resuming the trip to greater price levels..
Obviously if this does squeeze we will not be posting as much because we have to manage our positions
Good luck to everyone!

The typical daily lunch time price consolidation we are seeing is a good thing.
Better than price breaking down lower
Anticipate price will start to get some legs again after 1:30pm est

Watch out using market orders (buy or sell) in this environment- the next available price might be further away than you think.

Morning!
Expect to see the boatload of shares that became available to borrow put to use early this morning
The cost-to-borrow rate (sheesh!) tells the story on the problem shorts have right now
Chart above is still valid

With the broader market teetering (lets see how many get burned by this blowoff move up smh) we should see some major volatility throughout the end of the week as Shorts juggle GME and whatever happens in the market..
Exciting times!

IMHO the $30 calls that are expiring tomorrow is why price is at these levels
They are trying to keep the price as close to that strike price as possible lol.
The problem with stock manipulation though is that you cant out manipulate sentiment
Their only hope is hope is their tactics destroy sentiment..something tells me they are under estimating the level of sentiment within GME stock holders

Here is the reality:
This is 100% being manipulated to stay below the $30 Calls that are expiring tomorrow
Trades are being diverted off exchange to relieve buying pressure.
If you look at volume with a Volume Delta indicator there are an excessive amount of candles on lower time frames that show NO BUY VOLUME..do you really believe that on stock with this type of volume?
Nothing about this price structure says that this move up is done
The reason we keep saying that we are looking higher is because the structure AND VOLUME tells us to look higher
That blatant manipulation has a cap on price pressure up now...but it wont and cant last..WHY- because you cant out manipulate sentiment!
You can only hope your manipulation kills sentiment...and they cant
Now as you see we have Wave targets on the chart.
And before you roll your eyes at Elliott Wave, do understand that it is EXACTLY what we are using to call these targets
We are calling it now:
Price will reach Wave 5 by Thursday..maybe Friday depending on the structure tomorrow

Ok this sucks but looking at the options chain $20 Calls are going to be a major problem for Shorts as well...
Pretty sure there will try to push it down to that level.
What sucks is the $20 level is technically where price structure is pointing us
That would put us making it to wave 5 between Wed and Thursday..NO PROMISES because this is so manipulated but from a big picture Elliott Wave perspective this price structure is typical
Typical in the sense that price is adhering to Elliott Wave guidelines and bouncing between the levels and targets that we expect
This is why keep saying they CANT OUT MANIPULATE SENTIMENT
Shorts can ONLY win if they destroy the sentiment around the stock..
STAY PATIENT AND STAY POSITIVE

Wont bore you with near term Wave counts and all that stuff...lets all focus on targets.

This week was your training (or maybe your refresher if you were present for the first squeeze)...youre gonna need it
Buckle Up..about to be a wild ride
OK here is what I think most want to know...how high can we go...this is how we see it
Wave Theory hasnt let us down yet on this so whether you think this is nonsense or not its working for us..
Doesnt mean it will happen but the count and chart tell us its possible.... AS LONG AS WE DO OUR PART TO KEEP SENTIMENT POSITIVE
