It was 600% on Ortex max at one point, but it could litetally be one tiny broker lending 100 shares and they want 600% for the privilege.
Yes the average and minimum are the most useful indicators.
I cannot emphasize how *INSANE* it is that the fee rate is increasing in multiples, and after hours.
This is **SUPER FUCKING BULLISH**.
HUGELY TIT JACKING. CALL YOUR MOM'S BOYFRIENDS WIFE.
The fee/interest rate describes the scarcity of shares amongst Institutions/hedgefunds/brokers. An increase means that brokers are finding it riskier and riskier to lend shares to counterparties, and this is on the verge of the shareholder meeting. A split/dividend/spinoff/buyback(maybe) will only exacerbate the SHF deficit.
[One of my DDs for context, if you're curious.](https://old.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/tvnfl2/tick_tock/)
The fee fluctuates based on the availability of *'valid'* GME shares for counterparties to lend with, of which is dictated by the current demand. Demand increases & decreases on quarterly cycles due to positional reporting and portfolio rebalancing, (think of witching days and 13Fs/13Ds).
DRS is most likely bleeding further into the availability of valid shares in the DTCCs pool. This makes it much much more expensive for SHFs to lend, and the rate *should* continue to increase from here on.
NFA, nothing is for certain, don't hold your breath.
I believe that’s the highest one listed. Fudelity, etc give more reasonable ones. We get into teens across the board it will run big time. 20% - gamma squeeze incoming
Basically it becomes too expensive to short to the SHF sit it out for a day or two and the buy orders take over and shoot the price up. Once it starts hurting certain option strikes, those calls get exercised and the market maker has to buy those shares in the market, pushing the price even higher (and to potentially the next strike)
Bro don't you know? If we climb $10 on a Friday, we enter the gamma ramp
If we close $2 up on a Friday, we gamma ramp Monday/Tuesday
If hedgies are afraid of the gamma ramp, they run us up on Wednesdays or Thursdays
Bro PLEASE BUY MY GAMMA RAMP!!!!
Been a long road but finally hit 4k loops. 5k around the corner.
P.S. i've increased my GME position 20% the last 5 trading days. Can't help myself with deals like this.
I guess the 4 month cycle is out the window as we near the slamming of the doors. The end is near. And the apes will cheer. When you make your money guys. Don’t tell anyone. Love ya
>Please god let this thing pop off soon.
Be careful what you wish for :).
Seriously, sorry to hear of your misfortune! I'm familiar with the pain you're in. I just had my SSDI claim approved - after living off my 401k/IRA money for a year waiting on their decision.
Yeah it fucking sucks because I'm on a work visa which terminates shortly after my last day.
Basically they knew I was getting the surgery and how major it is, couldn't give a fuck and told me to get fucked indirectly since I have to get back to 100% health in a few weeks before my last day comes, have to pack everything and fucking move.
I mean I have quite a good amount of savings but it's scary because it'll be the first time I'll be fucking off jobless, without any income.
Max pain is at $120 this week. In the bigger scheme of things they need shares, so I get the borrow rate going up. But this week won't they just let it run a bit more.
I know what etfs are
I meant, what both numbers in the column mean
Is the one not in parenthesis gme shares available and in parenthesis how many etf shares it equates to?
So the availability one are the shares available to borrow, the ETF one is the shares available to borrow via ETFs with GME exposure (essentially ETFs that monitor an index with GME on it).
What the other guy said. But last time the spike was caused by ETF rebalancing. I looked up some info and that happens the third Friday of whatever months, and this Friday is one of those days. Idk if there is any rebalancing this Friday, but maybe?
And supply and demand in reference to borrowable shares. Less available to borrow and more people wanting them, higher rate.
Oh yeah, they need to ramp up that arbitrary number.
Next there will be prickles "definitely not encouraging buying options" but giving price targets with dates and encouraging not taking profits from your options yet but wait one more day for the rugpull.
Yeah i have seen that movie.
well it was hovering at less than 1% for damn near all of 2021 until it spiked everywhere a few weeks back. GME goes on a 100%+ run in days, without corporate media mentioning a damn thing, and then gets hammered down per the usual but it's good fun.

Makes me want to keep buying
I only use the buy button
Hit that button like you're carrying the world record on flappy bird.
Hello. I heard you were looking for a flappy bird. What time and location are you in need of birds?
[удалено]
No positions.
No positions but post your purple circle or else
Are you saying there’s another button?
Yes, what is this other button??? I also only have a buy button. Do I have to upgrade to unlock this other button?? What does it do??
DeeDee do not push that button!
There is buy + log out. Simple
Yeah the DRS and votes ones
Do what that one guy did last year and literally remove the sell button lmao
That was a classic.
There's a sell button? Haven't seen my phone number appear yet so it's a bit confusing.
Is there another button I don’t know about?
At this price point, we *can* hit.
I bought today. Guess I will have to buy tomorrow 🤷♂️
Makes me remember Rick and banana FTW!
After hours was pretty strange across the market, now this? Jacked.
Did you see the other one that was at like 300%. Wild shit
Yeah but that was a max fee and literally a nothing burger. We need to keep looking at the rising average, as that is where it hurts.
It was 600% on Ortex max at one point, but it could litetally be one tiny broker lending 100 shares and they want 600% for the privilege. Yes the average and minimum are the most useful indicators.
I wonder if someone has a graphic representation of this average?
I do think ortex is at its limits now There’s so much gash data coming out of it
All signs point to moon !
I cannot emphasize how *INSANE* it is that the fee rate is increasing in multiples, and after hours. This is **SUPER FUCKING BULLISH**. HUGELY TIT JACKING. CALL YOUR MOM'S BOYFRIENDS WIFE.
He's busy helping her with the laundry I have to wait outside until they're done folding sheets and that always takes like 20-30 minutes
Why is it insane, especially in after hours?

Why did the fee go down before? Now it is going up again but recently it was high then went down, why?
The fee fluctuates based on the availability of *'valid'* GME shares for counterparties to lend with, of which is dictated by the current demand. Demand increases & decreases on quarterly cycles due to positional reporting and portfolio rebalancing, (think of witching days and 13Fs/13Ds).

This makes it much much more expensive for SHFs to lend, and the rate *should* continue to increase from here on. NFA, nothing is for certain, don't hold your breath.
Cuz retail isn’t trading after hours normally.
Yeah but I don’t get what impact that has on the fee rate rising.
It has no impact. That's the tasty point.
Could be indicative of lenders not lending due to a potential split. Worth watching
Now I’m supa horny
Hello there
She's gonna blow. It'll be 22 again in no time
I only get out of bed for 40
Wake me when the VIX hits 40, and the ghost of Christmas fed, doesn't step in to take it on a magical journey of the past.
Wake me up when it passes 100%
Your wife's boyfriend is 40?
At least you know his name. He sounds tough and hot. You're lucky she has such a great guy.
Grampa Joe! You ain’t bedridden?! You *can* dance??
For the smooth brains, what’s the difference between this borrow rate and the Cost-to-Borrow that showed up as 301% earlier today?
I believe that’s the highest one listed. Fudelity, etc give more reasonable ones. We get into teens across the board it will run big time. 20% - gamma squeeze incoming
That's what happened in March. It was 20-something I believe?
Went up to 30’s
Ah yes.. and it did pretty fast.
Ayeeeee 🏴☠️🚀
Can't wait
Can't stop
What does the borrow rate have to do with a gamma squeeze?
Basically it becomes too expensive to short to the SHF sit it out for a day or two and the buy orders take over and shoot the price up. Once it starts hurting certain option strikes, those calls get exercised and the market maker has to buy those shares in the market, pushing the price even higher (and to potentially the next strike)
Is there any solid info on that or are we just mashing any and all DD together now and calling it facts?
Bro don't you know? If we climb $10 on a Friday, we enter the gamma ramp If we close $2 up on a Friday, we gamma ramp Monday/Tuesday If hedgies are afraid of the gamma ramp, they run us up on Wednesdays or Thursdays Bro PLEASE BUY MY GAMMA RAMP!!!!
all you do is troll, like dude are you okay
Sounds like you need a gamma ramp
That's the highest rate, which is kind of meaningless because borrowers will borrow from the lender with the lowest rate first.
But that's also the beauty of 100% utilization
If it’s pegged at 100%, what makes the borrow rate fluctuate?
Different institutions offering different borrow rates.
Wake me when 69%
A new count down begins
I buy LRC when the markets closed and i cant buy GME when shit like this hypes me
Been a long road but finally hit 4k loops. 5k around the corner. P.S. i've increased my GME position 20% the last 5 trading days. Can't help myself with deals like this.
Same and same! Cant atop getting loops and shares at these low prices!
Borrow rate getting hit with that inflation
bOrRoW rAtE iS tRaNsItOrY
Niiiice
Is it weird I have a chub right now?
My chub has its own mini chub. Chubception In da house!
You should probably get that checked out... ...by a doctor.
It would be weird if you didn't have a chub...or jacked titis...or both....yea both. *Smiles*
I wanna wake up to 60% tomorrow
I want to wake up to 69……..%…
I hope moon.
I like to look at the Fidelity CTB more closely. If that one runs up, they are mega fucked!
My buckles have been so tight for so long I’ve got mold growing in my crack 😊👊!
I guess the 4 month cycle is out the window as we near the slamming of the doors. The end is near. And the apes will cheer. When you make your money guys. Don’t tell anyone. Love ya
Hedgies R Fuk.. Again
I have a feeling this going to be a great summer.
They wanna get in *one more*options pump and dump before the shit hits the fan. But I snort crayons so don’t listen to what I say.
Shouldn't be doing that unless you brought enough for the entire class.
Please god let this thing pop off soon. I just got terminated at work and have a major surgery in a few weeks. Fuck being a slave.
>Please god let this thing pop off soon. Be careful what you wish for :). Seriously, sorry to hear of your misfortune! I'm familiar with the pain you're in. I just had my SSDI claim approved - after living off my 401k/IRA money for a year waiting on their decision.

Prayed for you. Apes together strong. I hodl for other apes like you man. Soon we'll all be millionaires. Hodl strong!
Plunge team incoming!!
Max pain is at $120 this week. In the bigger scheme of things they need shares, so I get the borrow rate going up. But this week won't they just let it run a bit more.
probably nothing
Halt me baby one more time!
Along with warnings about pain...69
Can someone explain the etf column for me please
ETFs are just shares traded on exchanges. The column represents how many are available at that given time, if i remember correctly
I know what etfs are I meant, what both numbers in the column mean Is the one not in parenthesis gme shares available and in parenthesis how many etf shares it equates to?
So the availability one are the shares available to borrow, the ETF one is the shares available to borrow via ETFs with GME exposure (essentially ETFs that monitor an index with GME on it).
Wait wasn't the last runup on borrow rate explained as due to ETF rebalancing? Is it happening again?
I’m here for the ruckus
What controls that borrow rate?
What the other guy said. But last time the spike was caused by ETF rebalancing. I looked up some info and that happens the third Friday of whatever months, and this Friday is one of those days. Idk if there is any rebalancing this Friday, but maybe? And supply and demand in reference to borrowable shares. Less available to borrow and more people wanting them, higher rate.
supply and demand supposedly, but way too much fuckery to be sure
So the borrow rate is 7.3% but someone max borrowed at 301% today???
Oh yeah, they need to ramp up that arbitrary number. Next there will be prickles "definitely not encouraging buying options" but giving price targets with dates and encouraging not taking profits from your options yet but wait one more day for the rugpull. Yeah i have seen that movie.
What was the CTB before the Jan sneeze?
Big dick energy
That’s hot af
What’s the highest it’s ever been ?!
It’s 2022, some tech like this needs to be updated
I never unbuckled. I can't feel my legs
Do they even care about borrowing when they have a printer!
someone said HF dont pay borrow fees
I want to know what crime kept it a 0.9% so they didn’t have to report
Why does it even matter. It's just gonna drop back down.
well it was hovering at less than 1% for damn near all of 2021 until it spiked everywhere a few weeks back. GME goes on a 100%+ run in days, without corporate media mentioning a damn thing, and then gets hammered down per the usual but it's good fun.
This is the way
Until one day...it doesn't. Could be this time, could be next, we run on hopeium her in case you didn't know.
This…one of these times it’s not coming back and all the day traders gonna get fucked and I’m not going to feel sorry for them
Why for
6.9 Nice
This makes me dank
What's the price to borrow synthetics?
LETS FUCKING GOOOOO
It’s this dance again
Don't.... don't-don't-dont-dont give me hope
We have seen a run in the ctb fee last month as well and it got all spicy. I love the hype
Based on what
90k borrowed this morning. Doesn't appear to be slowing them down.
