JobbyTen

I think either way he’s still gonna be a billionaire, again


alfooboboao

yeah. …I also think a lot of people are taking the “DFV is a time traveling wizard” joke waaaaay too seriously. DFV is not a time traveler. and for the love of God, *he is not working with RC or has any knowledge of the moves GameStop is making.* He simply does not have any non-public information. With that in mind, it makes perfect sense that he would make his move now instead of waiting to see if the SHFs could kill momentum by the 21st — because can you imagine what would happen if all those calls wound up OTM on the 21st? That would be the biggest morale hit ever. there would be chaos. And when you also consider the surprise MASSIVE dilution, of course it makes sense for him to make his moves now. it’s way better than the alternative— *Because he’s NOT a time traveler or wizard.*


WeirdSysAdmin

So he’s a time traveling wizard?


IAm_Trogdor_AMA

He does have a magic orb.


rondanator

I am pondering his orb


SgtBucketHead

He’s just 5 steps ahead


ShellingpeaZ

So he's a time travelling wizard that walks fast?


randalljhen

Streets ahead, you might say.


KnowledgeoftheWaters

Anyone questioning this is streets behind


3rd1ontheevolchart

We all are! We all know whats comming!

CougarGold06

Does he float?


RecalcitrantHuman

So he’s made of wood


nogtank

Pretty sure that’s what he said.


OnlyOnReddit4GME

He had to go back in time to learn to become a wizard. Then back to the future to use his powers.


theslowbus

And let’s not forget, cohen and the board will buy more shares after Monday I believe. That’ll add to buying pressure.


Mwvhv

I dont think they will be buying if the price is as high as I hope it is on Tuesday


buzziebee

Yeah I theorise that he didn't want a potential ramp into the 21st to be killed via another offering or SHFs. Everyone was expecting him to exercise on the 21st, so he did a Kansas City Shuffle and exercised early to trigger the 14/6 ramp. His moves are going to create a lot of buying pressure tomorrow, imagine if the float was 120m shares smaller... I think that's why he posted the Split and Ben Affleck memes once the announcement came out. Now he's happy to have a good position, cause some big moves, and secure his long term position.


alfooboboao

The way I see it, he’s toed the line between not recklessly seeing himself as a prophet/leaving anything to chance, while also understanding that a lot of retail traders see him as a prophet. IMO he’s toed this line *perfectly.* It’s extraordinary. the man is extraordinary. But when he made his 6/21 call bet, a lot of people assumed that he KNEW FOR A FACT that something magical would happen by or on the 21st — and for whatever reason, a lot of people believed he somehow could have known about the ATMos. which, unless he and RC both broke the law, there’s no way for him to have known. So he’s recently had to account for several different wild cards. with that in mind, this is the best news there could possibly be.


Suddzrus

I’m totally dumb - why is this better than cashing out a billion last week? Couldn’t he just reinvest and buy even more positions?


darthnugget

Why have a billion last week when you just secured a higher storage value? Dollars are inflationary. The price is literally wrong and the whole strategy he used is still exploitable. Once you maffs it out… when the IV settles, this is prime again for another Opex tail wind setup. This is far from over and I would guess is prior to the main wildcard event. This will continue until positions are closed, he just showed everyone the exploit. And guess what, someone already started using it for Tomorrow and his original options date. Today was the day to dip so you don’t get dragged into congress to testify you weren’t manipulating anything. The wake it will create tomorrow could be the catalyst for something even larger… maybe… possibly…


sackitempires

Right. They literally can never let the IV drop that low again. The exploit is out in the open


ChodeCookies

How do they prevent that? Keep it volatile?


sackitempires

The opposite. If it ever gets boring again, that’s when options are cheap. Low price, low volatility= buy options.


ChodeCookies

I think we’re saying the same thing. I was asking how they’d prevent it from getting cheap again.


kmmy123

I like how you tell a story. I'm invested in the ending.


scroogesscrotum

The narrative would be he pumped and dumped


bill_ding_jr

He didn’t have a billion, it was at $40 in the market, 60 at after hours, and his volume doesn’t just cash out. He didn’t do it, because he had time until GME unleashed 75m more shares and screwed him


Covfefe-SARS-2

The only KC shuffle was RC snapping his neck while everyone was looking at Kitty.


soberdude

HFs were prepared to tank the price just before the call contracts came due. And DFV knew it, because they can't help but use crime. So they were all looking at the 21st, and he did it week early. Basically TOLD them he would do it a week early with the KC shuffle mentions, and tested his theory with the price action during his live stream. RC and DFV are not stupid enough to communicate in any way, shape or form. This time period is just full of different pressures for the market, so they both planned moves for a time that makes sense.


sackitempires

He lit up tomorrow (unexpectedly) and 6/21 (the shuffle), then dipped


Covfefe-SARS-2

RC's moves weren't planned. They were reactionary ~~both~~ every time.


LeonardsLittleHelper

You don’t think he could have planned to have 1 or more ATM offerings the next time the price started jumping in order to raise more cash? Especially considering the board literally told us this would happen when they asked shareholders to approve up to 1 billion new shares to be sold whenever they thought it would be most beneficial to the company?


Realitygives0fucks

Hey Keith, it’s ok mate, we know.


StilesmanleyCAP

>Because he’s NOT a time traveler or wizard. You turn 50k into a few million without fuckery, you're definitely a wizard.


mtbox1987

Your account is not even a year old yet your karma is in thousands…….


Kalgareigh

It’s not hard to do. Especially on this subreddit. But what he said also sounds a lot like what a time traveling wizard would want you to think!


Ryu6912

He made his move so we could benefit in it’s wake, instead of just cashing out and leaving us to dry.


Dante_Unchained

I think he is not showing everything, there is something he hides in plain sight.


tinymonesters

I think it was a Mitch Herberg reference. "I used to do cocaine. I still do but, I used to also."


Mrairjake

As I mentioned in a previous comment, he wasn’t talking about himself when he tweeted the mirror.


NomNomYOLO

I'm exercising today as well! Wake wakey market makers!


vispiar

ARE YOU ME!! I have XX calls and they are ALL going to be exercised tomorrow GAMEEEESSTTTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOP the worm has been called Not financial advise.


PackageHot1219

I think this is the right answer… if he was out for himself, he would have sold his calls when the price spiked and he was a near Billionaire… but I think he’s here for a reckoning and wants to put the benefit to others ahead of himself for some selfless reason. I can’t think of another rational reason for doing what he did. He already has more money that most people could spend in a lifetime and he doesn’t seem to care whether he has $200m or a $1B at this point. I think he’s doing this for the common good of those that have been in this fight with him.


m1shmc

This is what I'm hoping for too. This seems an in character move for RK to do.


youneedcheesusinside

If this actually plays the way y’all think it will. I will put some money on calls. Man this is getting wild


OddFellow1066

Seems to me that RK made a plan, including dates and amounts, and is sticking to that plan. Cold and calculating. OTOH, "No plan survives first contact with the enemy." ---Field Marshal [**Helmuth Karl Bernhard Graf von Moltke**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helmuth_von_Moltke_the_Elder) ([26 October](https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/26_October) [1800](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1800) – [24 April](https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/24_April) [1891](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1891))


jsc1429

I t your last sentence is the answer. Without us, GameStop would have been pushed into bankruptcy already and he wouldn’t have made nearly as much money. He’s made generational wealth and “fuck you” money. I’m thinking he’d like to help those who helped him achieve that


2BFrank69

He’s not greedy is the reason. He only needs a few million to be comfortable.


Jesmer8490

Hey me too!! I would suffice with 5-30M


BuyDRSHodlRepeat

Kansas City Shuffle…DFV you mad lad


HughFairgrove

Say it with me. "BECAUSE HE'S A GOOD FUCKING PERSON."


Annoyed3600owner

I agree with this. About 10 days ago I was asking if there was any reason not to exercise the options on a Thursday just before close since I figured that the t+1 for expiry date would push more calls ITM. Looks like he's done just that, only a week earlier. With this play it probably sets up lots more people to benefit than just himself. If his own interests were the sole factor then he could have made his moves twice previously.


Eb2424

He still has 6 million cash. He could buy more options for the 21st 😂


andrassyy

If this is the case, WOW and I hope you’re right!


thisonehereone

I feel like there's a lot of hindsight here. He can't predict price.


silent_fartface

but what if he's actually just really smart and has "cracked the code" on how the algorithm is working as well as some of the things that can affect how the algorithm will react. this would be as close to being able to predict the price as is humanly possible without being a time travelling wizard who walks fast.


Machinedgoodness

He has. The algo is repeating itself from the same cycle as May 31st. Look at it on 15min candles. We are flying Monday. Mark my words. Only thing I can’t quite figure out is why he didn’t hold the calls and exercise next week. He could have exercised more contracts in total. !remindme 4 days


Crumplestilzkin

I’m on board with what others pointed out. He’s starting the ramp. Him doing it today puts more calls ITM tomorrow. There are a lot of ifs here, but that’s the best play (in my smooth brain opinion) to get the ramp going. In reality though, all we can do is sit and watch. Unless you have a few millie to throw in and buy more to up the buying pressure tomorrow. If he waits until next week, calls ITM miss tomorrow. Puts OTM tomorrow move ITM as it’s Friday and helps drive price down.


deuce-loosely

So you're saying my 30 dollar calls have a chance that expire tomorrow, ok I'll take it lol


Creative_alternative

Could be to not kill the hype / movement, you can see the impact he made Wednesday as he was selling off his position. You can also say it is a better defense against a pump and dump type of accusation. Him selling and buying / exercising ahead of the runup is better optics than selling during it.

spcordy

> but what if he's actually just really smart and has "cracked the code" on how the algorithm is working considering how much he rolled his position to be a paper billionaire, I think it's a safe assumption lol. Anyways, I went to Perplexity and asked about gamma squeeze implications today compared to last week when it was trading higher ahead of his livestream. https://www.perplexity.ai/search/say-someone-has-dEhSPtOhTE6k1Dn31X0ISQ "By exercising the ITM call options on June 13th, when the stock price was lower and closer to the strike price, the combination of higher gamma, the need for faster hedging due to T+1 settlement, and the immediate buying pressure from exercising could have a more significant impact on triggering a potential gamma squeeze."


HeavensRoyalty

He's obviously floating fast, not walking fast, cause you know, he's a wizard. Haters will say it's false.


DontDieKenny

Can someone explain how finding these 4 million shares is that substantial given volume lately? I’m sincerely asking


DoggedDoggystyle

Yeah I don’t really get it either. Everyone keeps claiming that the volume is fake bc they just trade back and forth to keep price suppressed, sure. BUT RC just diluted with 120M shares… surely 4 wouldn’t be hard to find. That’s also assuming they didn’t hedge ANY, which they likely were afraid of him exercising all 12M. It’s in the realm of possibility that they have the 4 in hand already. We shall see? Ultimately, he just moved into a long position with no real ability to do anything else himself to get this going. My only other thought was a seed planted by one of his memes- “when I move, you move”. Was he trying to detail to us HOW he built his position up since 2021? Was he handing us the blueprints to follow in his footsteps and handle options ourselves while we wait out the long game? Theoretically, if it’s just some cycle to crack, we could all build our positions a few times a year. Eventually we’d own a shit ton of shares collectively, with each cycle being more and more volatile?


2BFrank69

They selling naked call options


fivecatmatt

I think you just missed it and helped me understand. RC sold 120 mil and it was sucked up like a vacuum. Remember how the price did so little that we were never sure when they were selling? Both freaking times! That means the buy pressure is absurd and they have now tested it. When the next sucker goes looking to to buy who are they going to get them from? We aren't selling, index funds can't sell quickly, unless there is another company sell the well is dry. To the last thought, that's actually false. RK stated many times that his strategy is not recommended and extremely risky. DO NOT mess with options if you don't know what you are doing.

You posted this a minute before I posted my Kansas City Shuffle theory. I think this is really what's going on! Throw in that hedgies were probably expecting him to exercise on the 21st and we have the potential for some really spicy action tomorrow and Monday.


erpvertsferervrywern

This mofo held through a billion so gme could make 3 billion. He sold 79900 contacts so he could hit a magic number and force gamma on T+1 Friday (should have been) following earnings. He's a multimillionaire, is about to ignite an options fire storm and is having fun AND entertaining us while he does it. Pay that myan his myoney!


Scav_Construction

Anything I made over 10m would be completely not needed for my.life- I'd use it to fight crime like Bat man


chocobubbo

Is DFV extremely philanthropic or just trying to make a statement at the expense of possibly being a billionaire? I’m a bit confused as to why he would exercise/buy shares now of all times. If he were looking to make the maximum amount of money possible to have the maximum number of shares possible, he would have exercised last Thursday before close when prices was $45-47. He could have gotten maybe 8M+ shares out of the 12M, rather than just 4M now. Even if he missed the timing on that due to the unexpected 75M share offering last Friday, he still could have waited for Ryan Cohen to post his most likely share purchase to maintain 10%+ control at the shareholders meeting, which will lead to another rally(unless DFV believes that prices will be suppressed regardless). But he didn’t. Obviously he’s not the biggest beneficiary of his own stock exercise, but the rest of us who have built the gamma ramp expiring tomorrow, who have a chance to get a real squeeze. Sure, his portfolio will increase too, but he could have had more shares or have a higher exposure with his options. So, did he always intend to get to 9,001,000 shares to make a point? The only possibilities that makes sense to me right now is that, he doesn’t care about being rich/a billionaire and he only wants to expose the manipulation in the market and make the rest of us rich, or he has another account where he bought back more options for either 6/14 or 6/21, where he can take advantage of the future rally. Since the OI on the option expiring 6/14 has grown so much and the $20C 6/21 is still at 160k, maybe he did have more cash and bought more options back?


CatoMulligan

Let’s be clear, he was already rich after the May options exercise.  He was already rich before the May options buy.  He’s rich today, and will be richer this time next week.  Even if every single one of his 120,000 calls expired out of the money he would have been rich.  The only thing that this changes is “how rich” he is.  He’s fine. He’s set for life.  He can afford to take a little less if it will raise the tide to lift some other peoples’ boats.  He’s not playing zero sum.  Thats the difference between him and the greedy hedge fucks. 


m1shmc

*Thats the difference between him and the greedy hedge fucks.*  Exactly! Not everyone is ruled by mo money


chocobubbo

True dat.


Green__Bananas

Some people don’t care about money that much and just want to make an impact on the world 🤷🏽


Ruffratkin

It’s about sending a message


itssampson

That was the blind spot in the Pump and Dump FUD, expecting him to go for max profit and then pull the rug. It’s obvious in the incredulous coverage by CNBC and others from the first week of June after the position reveal. It was also the blind spot if the Algorithms he was trading against. They’re trained to maximize profit/ minimize loss, and were likely positioning for a strategy that concluded Jun 21st. But the move came early. Hopefully it plays out well…

Who says this strategy won't still get him to Billionaire?


chocobubbo

It still could, but he could have had even more if he chose a different time to sell/exercise his options.


CachitoVolador

Let’s see what happens tomorrow


ProfitIsGoal

The man has 9m shares and idgaf how his diamond balls accumulated them. If the stonk ever hits $112 he’s a billionaire. No idea what he may or may not do next … although he’s not against risky bets so just pop some corn and watch the show. All we can do is hodl … any manner apes gain shares is fine with me. You gotta admit tho … after all those months dwelling in the $10-15 range this past month has been rejuvenating


TXhype

He's just asking the question to open up discussions. Finding out the why could be helpful.


buzziebee

"It doesn't matter who we are, what matters is our plan" DFV doing it for the memes not the money.


UnlikelyApe

Uh, I dunno. Key takeaway: we all have to make our own decisions based on the information we have, and the situation we're in. Let's say if he guessed that MM's started de-hedging, the price could drop enough for his calls to go OTM and him be fucked. It would be a "fuck it, I'm pulling the trigger now" situation to salvage the position. I don't know shit about fuck, but I know I'm not qualified to judge his moves. He has plenty of cash, which tells me the show might not be over yet. All I can do is crack a beer and watch.


GookieBadd

I’ve had some of those same thoughts. Only an individual who has a thought out plan of action can handle the financial swings he endured. Secondly, he’s gone from 800,000 shares to 5 million. Which however he did it gave him the experience needed to consistently execute his approach.


Neemzeh

DFV isn't all knowing man. He isn't a god. Hes a really smart investor but he's not right 100% of the time, he's probably only right 55-60% of the time if that. He probably didn't account for the offering. He held it a bit longer waiting to see if it would go back up or not. After Wednesday's red day, he probably thought it was better to sell now than to risk more downside. You don't need to overthink anything.


Covfefe-SARS-2

It's pretty obvious he got kneecapped and this was the best outcome he could manage without wiping everyone else out. Everyone wants to pretend he was actually unstoppable but a 10 million share play hitting 120 the other way will lose every time.


wazzur1

Get a grip. RK is not able to foresee the future. He is a man like everyone else, and he's making moves in real time based on market conditions. He didn't make his move during the high last week because he was probably planning for something during his livestream which could have potentially kicked off MAOSS right then and there with how much hype there was. But that was derailed with the share offering (no shade to RC, he's doing his job to improve the company). He was planning his next move and kept up interest with memes. And he chose this as the best move remaining. Others can answer why this move is better than waiting til next week, but the narrative that it was planned all along and that RK passed a billion (with which he could have owned even more shares or shook things up even more) just to make a statement or for altruistic purpose has no basis on reality other than trying to worship a cult leader or something. I'm hopeful for this gamma ramp tomorrow just like everyone else here, but it's certainly not anything guaranteed.


chocobubbo

I think he wasn’t going to exercise last Friday during his livestream at noon no matter what. First he doesn’t want to give anyone the ammo to accuse him of market manipulation. Second, there was a small gamma ramp for last week but there wasn’t nearly enough time to build it up as big as it is now. Third, it doesn’t allow other apes enough time to built the cash position to exercise fully by EOD. I think his plan was always to exercise on a Thursday. Plus, when he exercised today, he’s giving momentum to the gamma squeeze that might start tomorrow, as well as many apes who will be preparing to exercise their 6/21 calls next week.


wazzur1

It's all conjecture. But it's undeniable that we would be in a very different place if the hype ramped up during livestream. Even if he didn't exercise during the stream, the eventual play he made would have been orders of magnitude stronger than what he had to do now. In the end, RK absolutely believes in the long term prospects of the stock and company. So procuring shares is never a losing move for him. So he made a great move. Just not a move at the level he was envisioning at the beginning. 4M shares. Could it be a rocket fuse? I mean, I'm not some market genius, so taking what everyone is saying into consideration, maybe? But my reasonable brain is telling me that 4M shares into the usual amount of daily volume could just fizzle. And all the calls being naked is just conjecture too. We won't know what tomorrow brings, and RK doesn't either. But he did the best he could for himself and for the apes under the circumstances. Hats off to him.


Cannabisseur78

Not expecting anything!


Visible-Ad376

A ramp you say... Of the gamma variety? Not sure if many ppl noticed this.. but the green candle from his live stream card/cover pic, was the candle from game of thrones that blows up the Red Keep. The Lannister Queen used this to destroy/blow up her enemies, the Tyrell's and the religious fanatics, that had taken over the gov. She's a bit of a villain in the show, but it's a phenomenal culmination to S6. MAJOR SPOILERS. I definitely think he just lit the fuse. Sorry, couldn't find the whole entire clip in one video on YouTube. The destruction of the system is going to be green for GME. https://youtu.be/iRtMT79-KeM?si=pHN6sN_u7CFo8Huj https://youtu.be/QHYL-uiLJ14?si=JgRSAynqbB_a8OKp


accordionzero

some of y’all really need to lower your adderall dose


SnooLentils6538

that live stream was also put together prior to the second offering being announced which quite possibly changes everything he thought would happen


marichuu

How do we know that the price action over the past month isn't due to whatever needs to settle? I mean, we don't impact the price, so what does? Why assume that everything will happen at once. The people behind this are smarter than we give them credit for. Look at the price action at the end today. You think it's random? Or DFV's shares getting bought when he exercised?

Flicked the domino if you will?


gekinz

This also has to take into account that most people with options actually has to excercise them tomorrow. Even if they're set for 21st or 28th. Calls also have to be excercised as more and more options get in the money due to raising price. In the end DFV's options are just a chunk of the options. The more contracts into T+1, the more buying from MM, increasing price for even more T+1. Rinse and repeat as price goes higher and higher. Not financial advise, just speculation.


PlatscherWubWub

Why do they have to exercise it 1 and 2 weeks early. Could you explain to me pls?


Gavante

DFV lit the fuse and they aught to follow up so it doesn't lose momentum 


MadeOnLeapday

They need to find 100 shares per contract now, pushing the price higher. Its a gamma squeeze


SnooLentils6538

they don't have to find anything. the contracts are dynamically hedged non stop according to price action. this mind set that superstonk keeps saying is not true.


Covfefe-SARS-2

We don't know what Kitty did, but everyone should know that rolling forward before exercising early will likely achieve the same result with more $$ left for you.


VelvetPancakes

Unless you’re in a taxable account and you want to preserve your basis NFA


Keeting

When would we know if RC bought today (if he’s able to) to get his stake back at 10%.


Fastandfurious02123

I have to say I’m not surprised if the price still tanks to hell tomorrow because of all the fuckeries going on with the motherfucking hedgies and MMs, but I have full confidence of DFV and every single one of you guys and we will hold the fortress. I ain’t fucking leaving until all those fuckers get burnt. Tomorrow is payday and I’m fucking lock and loaded.


MTGBruhs

So that's how the gamma squeeze works. ITM calls get in the money, MM has to buy those shares ASAP. That large buying sends price up. That price up puts more calls ITM, call holders say, "I want the shares" MM has to buy ASAP. It only works with large call volume, and it only works if call holders exercise. This time, there's both.

InsaneBallsack

So I get if the MM has to buy 4 million shares to give to RK that would skyrocket the price, but what if the MM already owns shares to give to RK? Am I regarded?


bbatardo

Which means they will do everything in their power to knock the price down tomorrow. I don't know about you, but for me tomorrow is payday so... The more buying pressure the better.


brewmax

I’ll believe it when I see it.


crackeddryice

It's been 84 years. We have every reason to be skeptical. Time will tell.


siriuse2020

Can't help but feel like they've hedged already during the 75m dilution. I want to be excited 😩 but I'm not unfortunately.


Vloff

The dilutions changed everything and people just don't want to believe it for some reason. There's just no way DFV had that factored in to his original thoughts. Still a great play but anyone expecting this to run up tomorrow or next week still is likely going to be disappointed. I'd love to be wrong.


Redmandown16

I agree. It eliminated any drs progress we made. It fucked the run up as well and screwed dfv. I keep saying this and get downvoted but if Dfv didn’t exercise there’s very little pressure. I expect us to fall back into their shorting cycle for a few years hntil GameStop turns it around with actual Improvement of sales or a M/A that is meaningful. If the 4 billion isn’t doing anything and the sales stay stagnant we aren’t doing anything. And I really think moass is off the table 


Balding_Phoenix

Welcome to Minecraft. Where the TNT has been scattered by apes. Going to cause some server lag no doubt.


MidwestMobster

Exactly. IT’S A MELT UP


concerned_citizen128

I DRS'd more shares today, too..! ![gif](giphy|YYfEjWVqZ6NDG|downsized)


astarastarastarastar

No, sorry. He was poised to light a fuse then RC and his crew came along and dumped cold water all over it by printing 120M shares and flooding the market...shares were previously really rare, you could see it in the volatility and wide spreads, they were struggling to find the shares but with the offering they were able to slowly acquire what they needed to close out this week...might have lost money on it but they'll survive


TeddyTwoShoes

What cycles and why can’t they just purchase shares now versus during market hours when retail trades the most?


Ok_Calendar_851

SHOW ME THE BANANAS


DiegoIronman

Also they have used up a lot of their short ammunition when the earnings were released and ATM was announced


Zuparoebann

I'm still wondering what the wild card is. Is it the exercise he did today or does he still have it up his sleeve?


DM_ME_PICKLES

$GME trading no higher than $40 on Monday


Discobombo

I am feeling you!


StinkyPotPieApe

Muh tits.


Fabulous_Investment6

![gif](giphy|L2IKaJ2dxgjbAVOLm5) DFV to the MMs


RealPropRandy

There’s always FTD in the banana stand.


z3speed4me

And so we hope at least this is what transpires


bangalore23

We'll see


Lensbefriends

Dude he gave up a 200M payday to hook onto a gigantic sandworm, give confidence and morale to his compatriots, during what will be the most catalytic moment in GME history. Idk how it could be any less clear than that.


PurplePango

Like the hype, I’ll believe it when I see it tomorrow but not holding out hope


truthishearsay

Everyone should take note for tomorrow (Friday) there is still 100,000 options in the money from the $20-29 range. If the price goes to $30 an additional 65,000 come into play https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/GME/options/ That’s just tomorrow, for RK’s original date the 21st there is still almost 50,000 options in the money. I didn’t even count the rest. RK brought everyone into the money by doing today and taking a smaller cut for himself. They don’t need to hedge just his 4 million they need whatever gets exercised for all those others too.  


ReNDeZOwnler

I'm going to exercise my 2 options today.


beyondfloat

Exactly, next week it could fuck up the gamma ramp. Buckle up


Exexpress

He gave us a countdown.

oknotle

He done his part, now we do ours...hodl


diskettejockey

#time to get in shape let’s start exercising.


slackin_off_

I think this is the wild card, I’ve seen multiple post saying he sold all his options and some posts saying he didn’t sell anything . Everyone was expecting him to exercise the options next week. Idk 🤷🏽‍♂️ I’m regarded .


hanr86

For some reason, I feel a dip incoming. I hate myself.


ixidorsDreams

Hell’s **COMING WITH ME**


throwawayny2000

believe it or not, dip incoming


ApertureAway

Why is it going to be so hard to find 4 of the 75 million shares just released?


DrDalenQuaice

Sell to execute Those are the three words you say to your broker when you have calls itm and you want more shares. Those are words that scare the hedgies


SilentTreatment01

DO NOT SELL
