GME

Fun_Purpose6972

I am a complete regard who got into r/wallstreetbets at the GME hype in 2021. I came back, made money on MU and wrote a comment that said "it is more dangerous to avoid semi's than to go ALL-IN in semis" and got 30 upvotes. Then I took a hard look at myself and realized I was the shoeshine boy.

Infinite-Nil

My stray for making money ever since GME hype tapered off is to do the opposite of what this sub says lol

ManBearPig_1983

I thought it was Cohen from GME where he couldn’t explain a 21 billion dollar gap in his proposal to buy EBay like a month ago 😂

BPD-GAD-ADHD

WOLF. Was a penny stock last year 🤷 95% short, setting up for probably the best short squeeze since GME with two upcoming reverse splits. Retail are the ones who’ll force the squeeze

1-Dollar-Doge-Coins

In theory, sure. In reality? GME isn’t a great growth option. They’ve been on a turnaround path for a while now, with several profitable quarters, but let’s take a look at the stock performance: 1 month: -12.5% 3 months: -7% 1 year: -28% 5 years: -62% I understand the squeeze is impacting the 5 year view, so that’s a bit screwy, but you could’ve invested your money in so many other companies, or hell, keep it safe with VOO or VTI, and you’d have made SO much more money. GameStop is a good company with strong fundamentals, but not a great option if you’re looking for the best path to growth in the stock market.

JohnnyCFord

Nah, gave mine $100 and it is holding 4 shares of GME

CollegeStudentTrades

Agreed. This reminds me of that first drop with GME when everyone said it was over and didn’t buy in.

People really thought this was the next GME LMAO

IceCoughy

It's going to create a new dulsion cult like GME

geobomb

All the big money and hedgies are exiting somewhat to get ready for the biggest pump and dump since GME

undercoverconsultant

It is something to be excited about. I expect GTV6 release to have similar impact on GME compared to regular console cycles. Just one example of an old article about this: https://247wallst.com/retail/2020/07/21/gamestops-new-and-used-inventory-versus-the-xbox-playstation-console-refresh-cycle/

TheLordOfStuff_

I was in during the runup, got a nice entry before the weekend and was feeling good. But seeing how the regard communities started talking about it made it quickly apparent that the play was to get out asap lol. Everyone talking like it like it’s the new GME but in reality it’s the new BYND. The memes are almost identical.

Only_Constant_8305

I copy-pasted it into grok and only replaced ChatGPT with grok, here the answer: **🚀 SPCE THESIS: The Virgin Galactic MOASS Play – Space Tourism is the Ultimate Squeeze Setup (Not Financial Advice, Just Copypasta Fuel)** **Listen up, apes.** You've been bagholding this "crap company" through the dilution hell, the endless delays, and the Branson hype cycles that never quite delivered. But just like the GME crew saw the shorts trapped in a dying retail dinosaur, **SPCE has the ingredients for a legendary turnaround rocket ride.** This isn't about fundamentals grinding out profits tomorrow. This is about narrative, scarcity, retail FOMO, and the space economy catching fire. # Why SPCE is Primed (The "DD" Part) * **Delta Class Spaceships = The Catalyst That Changes Everything.** They're transitioning from prototype (Unity) to production mode. Ground testing is underway, flight testing targeted for Q3 2026, commercial flights late 2026. Each Delta ship is designed for **6 passengers** (vs 4 before), **much higher flight cadence** (multiple per week potential), and way better economics. This isn't sci-fi – it's moving into the hangar and assembly phase. * **Space is the New Meme Sector.** With SpaceX IPO buzz, asteroid mining talk, tourism demand from billionaires and high-net-worth thrill-seekers, and governments pushing commercial space, **Virgin Galactic is the pure-play retail-accessible ticket to "I went to space" experiences.** $450k-$750k per seat? Rich people treat that like buying a yacht. Backlog + new demand = revenue ramp when they actually fly consistently. * **Short Interest & Volatility History = Squeeze Fuel.** SPCE has been a classic short favorite for years because of cash burn and execution risk. Recent rallies (250%+ in May before the dilution rug) showed what happens when retail piles in. A successful test flight or big partnership announcement could ignite another gamma squeeze. Shorts hate uncertainty – and space is full of it until it works. * **Recent Earnings Show Burn is Slowing.** Q1 2026 showed narrowed losses, progress on assembly, and reaffirmed timelines. They're burning less cash as they shift to production. Not profitable yet, but survival mode improving. **The Bull Case MOON Math (Rough & Hypey):** If they hit even 50-100 flights a year at high utilization with the Delta fleet, revenue scales fast. Market cap is still tiny for a company with Branson's brand, FAA licenses, and actual hardware flying. Compare to other space plays – this could 5-10x on execution alone if sentiment flips. Add short covering and Reddit momentum? **We ride the VSS to Valhalla.** # Risks (Because I'm Not a Delusional Shill) Dilution is real – they keep issuing shares to stay alive. Execution risk is massive (delays have killed hype before). Competition from Blue Origin, SpaceX suborbital, etc. Cash runway matters. This is a **high-risk speculative bet**, not a sure thing. You've been warned. **But here's the GME-style truth:** The company isn't going bankrupt tomorrow, timelines are actually progressing for once, and space tourism is an inevitable luxury market. The float gets manipulated, retail gets shaken out, then **BOOM** – one good news cycle and the shorts are toast. **Diamond hands, space cadets.** Hold through the volatility. Buy the dip if you believe in human expansion beyond Earth. When the first Delta commercial flight happens with paying customers waving from space, the narrative writes itself. **TL;DR: SPCE to the fucking moon. Not because it's perfect. Because the setup rhymes with every other squeezed story you've seen. LFG.** *(Seriously, this is for entertainment and your Reddit experiment. Do your own research, this stock is volatile as hell. Not advice.)*

Mrairjake

GME you say? The company that just reported their best Q1 in its history? The company that has Billions in cash? The company that continues outperforming on all metrics, so much so, that they just announced their earnings a week early? The company that is killing it in one of the most explosive markers, that being trading cards? That company? 😂

College_isa_scam

Nah bruh, this sound a lot like GME pt.2 no thx 

Ok-Amphibian3164

Yeah GME was a wild time. But Crypto was the real move. https://imgur.com/a/gPwKhz8

EveryNewspaper2287

GME was like a month if you’re frustrated at this going down for just 24 hours don’t be worried

PckMan

I'm so so tired of this fucking GME narrative. It was dumb then and it's dumb now. The same arguments, the same theses, the same vernacular, the same cope, the same desperate bagholders who will jump on every pump and dump over the last 5 fucking years instead of taking the time to actually learn some market basics. Just this week alone so many companies have skyrocketed, SPY is soaring, other space companies are rallying, and still people are focusing on a play that's over and done with.

AttilaTH3Hen

I made thousands of dollars. My average was $10 pre split, or $2.5 adjusted lol. Just because the pump and dump is done does not mean the short cover wasn’t real. It’s literally why Gabe Plotkin’s fund was shut down. Billions in losses from covering the GME short. You are misinformed and far too confident to be wrong on all accounts.

Calm_Voice_7903

Who care AI or memory work or not. Just participate hype make money is Algo game. After $GME, like $SNDK. 33 to 1833

imustbegthequestion

GME stop I'mma see you soon print.

Spirited_Mind3887

If $GME goes below 22 bucks I'm buying more

CesarMalone

Classic robinhood. After all the GME / Meme trade freezing in 2021, no clue why anyone uses this garbage platform.

NotGucci

WSB gain porn has been insane lately. There has been more of that than loss when compared to GME. Just look at anything that is semi/AI related. One red day followed by 5% green day.

nobertan

Being desperate and attempting to rush things will get you burnt. Like the person dumping their wages into a lottery machine attempting to make rent… Maybe put it all in VOO or VT while you figure out a sensible plan ? You’d of been singing already if you did that before instead on sitting on cash — looking at charts and getting FOMO is some GME bag holder mentality.

ubeen

U know we're back when GME, BB and NOK are green and the rest are Red.

NicePumasKid

GME is possibly a good move looking at recent history and current profit

You must not have been around during the wild swings of GME and AMC and other meme stocks

MRVL and GME ....gonna be a good day!

People who thought spce would moon forgot that people have been waiting to unload their bags for years. GME didn't have that.

Walmart does things that nobody else does and many things that others do but better. GME is just jumping from trend to trend without a solid strategy to make them relevant 5 or 10 years from now. NFTs! Bitcoin!! Pokémon!!! What’s next? Not a solid strategy I know that.. 😂

weed_cutter

SPCE thingy was another false flag right? I mean cmon ZOOM (zoom technologies) the Chinese company vs. ZM (Zoom communications, real one) is a real source of confusion. Exact ticker, vague name. SPCE is not SPCX or really sounds like it, nor does Virgin Galactic. ... Glad I learned my lesson with GME/ AMC back in the day and didn't jump on the meme stock .. looks like it got crushed yesterday lol. It's POSSIBLE there is confusion on IPO day but I kinda doubt it. Mmm.

GME back on the menu?

GME is so awesome because Nintendo makes great high in demand consoles…. 😂

ThreeTonChonker

WSB has sucked ever since GME failed, pass

grapeshotfor20

At least with GME there was a solid reason to hold, since shorts were well over 100% of float and they'd be forced to buy to cover eventually. SPCE was a game of hot potato from the very start. The whole play was that a bigger idiot would buy it from you thinking it was SpaceX

Winterough

The only bankrupt ones are the diluted GME shareholders who are absolutely flat across the board for 5+ years … 😂

Winterough

I love GME because it is never their success that gets talked about it is always another company’s wins that they ride their coat tails on. Selling GTA copies, Pokémon and Magic cards doesn’t mean GME are successful - any idiot retailer can sell other company’s successes.. 😂

FreshStar7

I agree with you on the second part of your comment, but the first part is fabricated or anecdotal. And my GME position is like.. 2% of my port lmao.

Bag holder communities 🥲in the list with GME, NOK, and whatever other regarded stocks propped up here with silly “hold the wall” posts

Similar how? They might get a contract, SPCE’s best statement was ‘the next GME’. Care to explain to us?

ThatFUTGuy

THIS. Cannot wait for a new bag holding community, somebody should combine GME, BYND & SPCE regards for an ultimate meme bag holder community

DrixGod

This happened pre-GME with Zoom. People bought the ZOOM ticker instead of ZM. Nothing changed.

jiccc

When the GME "hold the line" and "us vs. the hedgies" narrative took place I knew things would never be the same. GME, O-PEN, BYND, this, whatever else will come. Realistically, I dont think anyone should have attachment to a stock or company. Let alone when you're using derivatives with expiration dates. This is trading not "investing," and even then, it's likely best to have a healthy dose of detachment. Its all fugazi.

Damn GME... I just rolled the dice and landed on PRINT.

taiwansteez

I’ve caught four 10+ baggers in the last 10 years SHOP ,TSLA, GME, and NVDA in that order. I’m up 2700% on TSLA and 5700% on NVDA and they’ve literally changed my life. It’s honestly just a lot of luck and conviction. I’m not the smartest person but when I first started I took the old adage “time in markets beats timing markets” to heart, and committed to long term investing. GME was admittedly 100% dumb luck. However for the other companies I just bought into their visions and they executed well and the stock performance followed.

Proper_contradiction

Bought a few shares near top in 2021. Bought into the narrative about evil hedge funds. I had some money I was willing to lose to fuck them over for wiping out my whole family financially back in 2008. Then GME crashed hard. Held until roaring kitty came back with the chair meme and ultimate became a billionaire for a few hours. I had forgotten that I still have those shares. I exited the position near that top. Make around $5 total in profits from the whole thing. Withdraw the money into my checking account and went to Wendy’s to buy some chicken tendies. I retarded, I know I definitely belong here. It was a crazy ride. Good memories though.

mailwasnotforwarded

GME bag holders all over again. Even after spacex IPO we will see some stupid thread about DD linking SPCE to spacex in some way shape or form just to try and get idiots to follow so they can try and get out of all that loss.

VeganJerky

You can only make a post to shit on GME, positive news is banned.

trojanmana

MRVL IS THE NEW GME. let's get that 1K

bookofnature

How did you all now learn from GME...coming from a generational GME holder.

Stack_Johnson

I remember when the whole sub was either in PLTR at $20 or GME at $17 and the whole PLTR team got taken to the woodshed, didn’t recover for like 4 years 🤣

SmellyCat808

Average regard here. First trades ever were during that GME era. Don't have much at all, but avg was $14.5 in one account and never bothered to average down. This honestly is starting to feel similar. Things are running left and right. I mean, SPCE ran again. Fucking SPCE...

IndependentUsual7444

GME buying back stock? GOOG selling stock? Am I dead

CJ4700

Yeah I actually caught the GME short squeeze early enough to make a lot of money on calls but I agree with everything you’re saying. If you read about it here you’re almost always too late.

SinStockGuy

Might as well jump ahead of the circle jerk and just buy GME now

SwingImpressive6742

Like Ryan Cohen from GME?

imustbegthequestion

I forgot about GME...

GreyMatter22

Wait fellas, this is too funny. So, for years, Ryan Cohen kept aggresively diluting GME shares, especially past $30 killing all sorts of gamma ramps, even when the legend DFV returned, twice. And now, GME did a surprise earnings, with a $2.5B authorization for share buybacks when GME is at $21. In short, GME are swing trading their own shares, at the expense of their shareholders.

ThanksDependent1001

So GME right?

FreeformSensei

WSB blew up in 2021 over the GME short squeeze (go ahead and squeeze my nuts Auto Mod). The sub went mainstream for a short squeeze, so that’s definitely been a part of this sub. And GME was around $650 million in the fall of 2020 if I remember right, so it wasn’t some massive large cap stock. Now you can’t even say “short squeeze” with stupid auto mod replies I don’t have any money in this stock. But $100 million market cap isn’t necessarily tiny. And I’m honestly much more entertained by seeing pump and dump stocks, than a $750 YOLO bet (which already implies a high risk move just with different wording)

Bowl_of_Cham_Clowder

Since otherwise every other post will be people trying set up a squeeze on whatever small cap they can find. Most of these are just pump and dumps trying to get people who have fomo from GME and newly SPCE Also OP gave 0 examples of why we should be bullish about this company. Just because a company is heavily shorted doesn’t mean that it’s worth buying. Maybe there’s a good reason it’s shorted — OP never gave us a reason to think otherwise.

Okay cool, would you mind pointing me towards the subreddit where people were posting about GME before it happened? Regard

wballz

Seems a real life short squeeze is now shunned in WSB. But piling into a stock hoping people buy it via mistake is totally cool. Crazy how WSB got owned by the elites after GME. Yes sir we promise not to fuck up your rigged market again.

maeynor

Tale as old as time. GME ruined the brains of so many gamblers

Bro this AI buildout is really real. It’s real money being spent by the elite companies. How people think this is like 1999, or GME, or crypto is beyond me

Man, I wasted a good bit of money on GME…..I might do it again lol

wallstreetbets-ModTeam

Thanks for your submission! If your post essentially boils down to trying to recruit others to buy into your stock so that it can squeeze, then your post is not welcome here. The truth is, we get a lot of "squeeze plays" or "the next GME" type threads, and honestly, they never pan out. If you really have an interesting play, it should be able to stand on its own merits, without necessitating a whole bunch of retailers (kek) to buy in after you and pump up the price. Look, this isn't a pump and dump forum. For that, try r/ponzischemes. If you need some guidance, don't hesitate to [reach out to modmail](https://old.reddit.com/message/compose/?to=/r/wallstreetbets) and we'll give you some pointers!

AirportHot8094

Don’t feel bad there are people still holding GME, AMC, BYND and even BBBYQ…. Oh wait never mind they held to 0.

Claybuch

The stock got diluted and retail makes up a drop in the ocean compared to people on the SPCE board and institutions. It was always a pump and dump. SPCE literally did a stock split back in 2024, of course they're gonna do it again. I think the part people keep forgetting about GME is that it was a first of its kind, a market distruptor, a new metric to track. The market makers are good at making money and they're going to keep doing it because this is a factor now. It's not going to catch them by surprise again.

The_vegan_athlete

Are you insinuating that GME is undervalued?

WELDup42094

I just got in as well. First time back in the market since I exited my positions with AMC and GME. Hoppin on the coaster again.
