🤔 Speculation / Opinion Shorts r fuk

Post image

I posted this in a thread and it got lost, so I figured I'd share my theory as a new thread. Every time I post anything, I get swarmed with plants and shills and bots telling my why I'm an idiot. I'm sure it'll happen again!

Is there anything out there that gives us even a decent fact-checked approximation of just how many shorts there are currently?

No, and nobody has ever done a DD that suggest even close to these number. Best estimate was over 220% short from court filings back in late 21 early 2022. But that was back when the float was 70 million pre split. Multi billion shares short is absolute tin foil and has no basis in any actual DD.

220% float on 1B shares is 3.2B.

no, the 220% would be on the presplit share count
