GME

EfficientTitle9779

I’m not short at all on any stock - I just don’t understand how this point is not raised every single time anyone mentions GME squeezing. How can a stock be a possible candidate for a squeeze with so many shares available to be offered into the pool at any given moment?

headin2sound

People love to get on their high horse and call GME investors cultists and brainwashed but I feel like they are the ones who are brainwashed and unable to look at the company with unbiased eyes. GameStop just had its fourth profitable quarter in a row after bleeding hundreds of millions of dollars each quarter for 3 years. They now have more than 6 billion of cash in the bank earning interest. The switch 2 is on track to be the best selling console of all time in its first few weeks and those profits will hit the balance sheet in the next quarter. When it comes to these bond offerings, they are literally free money for you as a shareholder if you know how to play them. I sold half my shares as soon as it was announced and bought puts. Closed the puts for 80% profits during the pricing window of the bonds and bought my shares back for 30% cheaper. Made thousands of dollars while the company made billions of dollars. Interest free. But please keep lecturing me on how this is somehow bad for me.

TECHSHARK77

Net Income for GameStop (GME) from 2021 to 2025: 2021: -$215.3 million 2022: -$381.3 million 2023: -$313.1 million 2024: $6.7 million 2025: $131.3 million That does NOT equal $1 billion dollar, soooooo where did they get the $1-$9 billion then???

But... Gamestop is in profit? And with the sale of all of the unprofitable Canadian stores and the Switch 2 sales Q2 could be absolutely huge? Personally, I don't really care about the Bitcoin purchase. I just see it as a hedge against the volatility caused by the blatant price manipulation of GME. I'm far more interested in the billions in the bank and a CEO at the helm that absolutely knows how to make money. If the legacy theories about naked shorts, swaps and the Yen carry trade turn out to be correct then that's just a bonus

The convertible notes being offered at earnings pay out 0.00% interest. That's essential free loans that can be converted into shares of GME at a specific share price, the current one is set at ~28.71$/share. The option of payback for these loans are at the discretion of GME, not the buyers. The company can choose to payback the notes with cash OR shares. Dilution through these means does increase the share count but also gives GME increasing amounts of cash on hand to do whatever they want, like buy Bitcoin. The current P/CF ratio is under 2. That indicates an extremely underpriced/oversold stock. GME cash on hand is at ~80% of market cap, another insane ratio. You do with that information what you want.

Tricky-Bandicoot-186

My take: Years ago folks on Twitter started following each other if they tweeted about $GME. This created a giant echo chamber and the algorithm selected some to rise to top with a ridiculous amount of followers. Twitter became X and started paying for monetization with these top accounts stuck on brand in an echo chamber. Some of these accounts are making a ton of money simply tweeting about $GME. There is no “short squeeze” potential here probably EVER because Wall Street knows there is a huge cult following on socials. They wouldn’t risk over shorting again simply for this reason. Now they still can short a ton of money because Ryan Cohen continues to dilute shareholders allowing them to stay way under the short percentage of float required for an actual short squeeze. The apes at the bottom of the echo chamber are sadly naive investors who are being duped by the influencers at the top of the echo chamber. They’ve essentially been brainwashed into buying and holding the stock. The con artist at the top of the echo chamber do wild stuff with the money they get for tweeting like put in occasional bids WAYYY over the ask and stir up socials with “whale teeth” conspiracies e.g. whoaa look at these whale teeth, shorts are fucked. They then use their social moneys to buy wild out of date call options and try to get others to do the same with the majority of the chambers population simply buying and holding the bag. So the influencers are orchestrating gamma squeezes here and there bringing the stock to $30 every so often and this creates a feedback loop. Assume most if not all of the influencers know what they are doing and begin dumping their calls for bank propped up by the apes at the bottom holding shares. Wouldn’t be surprised if they aren’t killing it buying puts right before they dump and selling it to their echo chamber as “short interest” when it’s simply their own short volume pulling up before they make their payday. The cycle continues. It’s honestly sad.

By that definition GME is a growth stock.

It fell by 23% since you made this reminder exactly one year ago.   You have officially won the battle of GME.

TheInkDon1

Thank you for proving my point: >With a non-margin account, returns are meh, but solid. It's AH Friday, 6/13/25 as I write this. GLD spot is 316.29. The 32DTE (from Monday) 30-delta Put is the: 18Jul308P selling for 3.55 So ROI is 3.55 / 308 = 1.15% in 32 days, call it a month. So 13-14% apy. Solid, but not too exciting. That's exactly what you're finding, right? And it's not so much that it's so "expensive to keep them cash-secured," because people wheel Costco at $990 per share. *It's that the premiums are so low*. Both of those have 30-delta CSP premiums 1 week out of about 0.55 to 0.6%: *And that's why people wheel stupid stuff like GME:* The **25**\-delta CSP premium 1 week out is 1.6% *3 times as much* at a *better* Delta It all comes down to ROR, or ROI, or ROC, whichever you like to call it: "What profit do I get, divided by capital tied up?" But what was the very next line in my post? >But have a MARGIN account, then it gets exciting. Buying GLD shares, or securitizing GLD Puts, in a margin account, you probably only get a 20% Buying Power reduction (that's what I get with Schwab). So *then* you get to take that little 0.6% return I cited above for GLD Puts a week out at 30-delta and *multiply it by 5!* **3% per week.** That's fun, right? TOO much leverage? Possibly. But that's why I suggest doing it on gold, because *it just doesn't drop that much.* So if you would, go back and re-read my post from there with the idea of reduced BP in mind, and see if it makes more sense. And this is just 'regular' margin in a Cash (non-tax-free) account, not 'Portfolio' margin. If you have a Cash acct and you DON'T have margin enable, you probably should. And I'm not say you need to carry a margin balance. Just get the reduced BP effect that a margin acct gives you. Since you've already been wheeling GLD, I hope this opens your eyes to a better way to play it. Cheers!

GME completes their convertible bond offering Tuesday. Last convertible offering a few months ago cratered the price from $28 to $21. Jumped to $27+ within 3 weeks after completion. Exact same thing happened Friday. Tanked from $28 to $21 during the vwap period. My jun 13 $25 puts went from $0.04 to $3.40 lol, rolled $15k into Oct $23 calls. Will sell a decent chunk ahead of earnings and get cheap puts expiring the same week (of earnings). Rinse and repeat

Otherwise_Big_6474

might as well buy some GME so you can make your money back.

Markets near all time highs, nevertheless, dca-ing into a low risk index fund is always a good idea, however this is a gambling subreddit brother, I’d recommend selling all your possessions and buying 0DTE GME calls, hope this helps!

If institutions pull out it’s over, they’re gna dump extremely heavy bags on retail. It’s happened many times. GME, BBY, BB, AMC

DetroitRedWings79

Starting to think the real money with GME is in buying 20-30% otm puts the day before and after earnings. It seems Ryan Cohen is just going to keep copying the MSTR playbook and issuing convertible bonds. As a frame of reference, you could have bought the June 20th 25p on Wednesday for $9 per contract at the end of the day. Yesterday at their peak, those contracts were worth almost $400 each.

deadcowww

Who is GME advertising to, to buy their convertible notes? Who's actually dumb enough to buy it if the general narrative is they are destined to fail?

carsonthecarsinogen

Just because a company is financially sound doesn’t mean there’s “deep value” Deep value would imply there’s something the entire market is missing. Everyone knows GME has a shit ton of cash and no runway.

ebfeebfe

^(\[Leans towards the microphone\]) *Sir, GME and AMC are green on the day.*

I sold a ton of GME back in 2020 that I got from Robinhood for free right before that whole fiasco. Such is my life lol

slacking4life

The bond purchasers seem guaranteed to not be paid in cash, as the company would only provide them cash at the end of term if their financial position was both secure AND the share price was greater than par value. If that were the case the holders would have already converted. Therefore it seems the bond purchasers are, as you say, betting on the volatility and/or value appreciation from this issuance to increase the value of the shares to above the purchase price. Allowing them to convert at a profit. As a skeptic that GME can create that value, I would only purchase these bonds at a sufficient discount to Par where I would already be in the green. I'm curious what, if any, discount they're selling at.

Skittler_On_The_Roof

This is uncommon for a senior note offering, but doesn't really matter.  When they convert they either get the shares or the cash value or the shares.  Not the cash value of 2025 when they got the option, the 2032 price.   So GME has a MINIMUM of liability of $1.75B for the $1.75B loan.  If GME moons and the market cap goes just 10X by 2032, they owe $17.5B in stock, or they can opt to pay $17.5B in cash. You never answered my question.  Why do you think a financial institution is willing to loan out $1.75B for 7 years for 0.0 interest when inflation alone will eat about 20% of that?  When T-notes are guaranteed and paying free money?  The end point in all of this is it's not added value to the GME's valuation.  They got a loan for $1.75B.  Yes, add it to the cash reserves.  But then list it also as a liability that they need to pay off a minimum of $1.75B, with theoretically no max. While it could be really good, it could also be terrible.  If they continue to invest in BTC and some new tech comes in over 7 years and the price drops, but the GME itself kicks ass or exposes shorts, for instance. In that case if BTC went back to $50k but GME 10X'd, they owe $17.5B either stock or cash but that investment is now worth less than a billion. THAT is why senior note offerings exist.  If it was just 0 interest over 7 years, risk of losing additional money if the company goes bankrupt, and then the borrower had the option just to pay back the initial principle after 7 years with no interest, there would be nobody offering to lend billions of dollars.

GME flashback

What the fuk ahould I buy, thinking MSTY or GME

PapaCharlie9

I'd like to help you, but you cropped off the ticker and strike on the first screenshot. So as homework, learn how to write out positions in conventional notation so that you don't use screenshots as a crutch for posting positions that may or may not include all of the relevant information needed. Based on clues you hinted at in your description, I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that the two positions are: 1 *GME 30c* 6/20 @ $0.22, current mark = $0.37, spot GME price = $22.52 1 GME 30c 6/13 @ $0.07, current mark = $0.04, spot GME price = $22.63 Is that correct? The info I wrote down is all of the relevant info from the screenshots (*italic stuff* is a guess, since it was cropped off). Everything else in the screenshot is irrelevant to your question and general discussion, so including it just slows things down and causes more work for readers. A bit more of a problem is the lack of the *opening* information. You gave us a snapshot for the existing positions, but not where they started. We'd need at least the time and day of the open, to the minute, or at least the bid/ask of GME and each call at the time of open. The IV at open and the IV now would also be very helpful. But at least with the snapshot we can do some sleuthing to see if there is anything in the price history of the two that would suggest something. >now the estimated profit is at 100% I don't see 100% anywhere on your call screenshots. An in any case, the "price" and gain/loss are based on the mark, [which is just a guess at the price](https://www.reddit.com/r/options/wiki/faq/pages/mondayschool/yourorders), so who knows what the actual gain/loss will be? You bought the first call for $0.22 and now it is worth $0.37 (guess). So you have a gain. Why you have a gain will depend on the price history of GME. I see that GME opened down on 6/12, but it started retracing value through the day, so that upward trend could be the entire reason why the call has a gain. It could just be that you happen to buy on a downdraft *in the call's price*, not necessarily the stock's price, and when the call's price recovered, you would see a gain. So the $0.37 might be the "normal" price, while $0.22 might have been abnormally and temporarily low. Finally, IV often increases when there is a sudden drop in stock price, so that IV inflation could also account for some of your gain. Since the first call has more time value than the second, it's more sensitive to changes in IV. This would explain why the other call didn't follow the same pattern. Timing also matters. You took that second shot at a different price point than the first, so obviously all bets are off comparing the two of them. The second call is also closer to expiration, so there's less gamma per unit delta, and less time value to boost the value of the call. If none of those last terms mean anything to you, there are explainers linked at the top of this page. Doing more study reading explainers would be beneficial. I hope this helped.

Skittler_On_The_Roof

I'm not saying whether it's a good move or not.  What I'm saying is nobody here seems to be looking at the repayment aspect of the loan.  Yes 0%, great, woohoo.  But to get this money their payment for this loan is going to be giving the loan issuer 30% of the company in that future. Like I said, you can't start with a $1m company, get a $500k loan offering half the company in the future as payment, then call it a $1.5m company. If you're a bull on GME, how is the interest on a T-note a better investment than a third of the fucking company?

Inflation_2022

Price is always right. Tell that to my UPST holdings when they were up 400%...The most money is made when stocks are mispriced. It happens all the time. Meme stock investing is it's own animal. GME is a $12B company...Enron cooked the books. Theranos lied. Dogecoin is worth $26B. Trump coin is worth $10B. We could go on an on about complete garbage being overvalued because of some internet movement. Tesla has a healthy internet business and a declining EV business. Units, ASPs, Margins, EV Credits, all down big. There is some promising innovation coming down the road. $1T is utter BS of a price for this company that earned $7B TTM and is likely going to lose more profit moving forward.

I hear the GME shareholder register is in great demand amongst scammers and fraudsters.  Every one a winning mark.

This sub finally healed after the most recent round of GME pump and dump and the baggies finally fucked off. It’s just us true tards now. The political people fucked off too, I mean we’re all kind of in this together now and you can’t really defend the taco man even if you voted for him. I mean you can try but you’ll look like a slow.

Anyone gonna buy GME?

Agree to disagree If they never had that pump n dump you wouldn't be saying that.. Let's see what the business can do, not what GME pump lotto it.....

Freduccine1

If you truly knew Superstonk then you would know that actual diligence that has been done. You wouldn't be talking out your behind. Keep wasting your time because in due time you will regret not investing in GME.

TECHSHARK77

Thats not what he is saying Its NOT deep value And clearly there is no moass. The NEW GME us only here because of the pump n dump Not because of business fundamentals or business practices.. Now instead of BECOMING a value company from its business, it must by BITCOIN to actually gain and grow value.. The cash on hand DID NOT come from the business it came from the stock pump.. Come on people.

TECHSHARK77

YET the fact that they had to buy any at all is the point They have to buy this so called great value you guys are trying to claim Here let me spell it out for you. Over the past 5 year from Jan 29th 2021 til today what would rather have had $423,117.27 in GME. Or BITCOIN😏 I 100% already know the answer... Do YOU Get it????

brunoreisportela

Nice job on timing that GME put! You nailed the IV reversion play – seeing that much volume on an overextended strike is a classic sign. I’ve been experimenting with ways to identify those spikes \*before\* they revert, looking at combinations of implied volatility, open interest changes, and even sentiment analysis. It's amazing how quickly emotions can drive premiums, and then just as quickly, reality sets in. Do you usually have a specific threshold for volume or IV rank that triggers your entry? I’m always curious how others approach quantifying these setups.

The3mpyrean

Nope. Thats surviving. They haven’t produced any considerable results. They haven’t done any m&a’s. Nft marketplace was a flop. BTC isn’t a business. Its gambling with shareholders’ money. So what else have they produced/delivered significant enough? PSA certifications? They diluted again to raise cash at shareholders’ expense. Again. So we’re funding their attempts. They haven’t said anything in 5years what the plan was or is. “Keep ur cards close” BS expired 3 years ago. They haven’t given any guidance cause they don’t know themselves what to do. He turned Chewy into multibillion dollar pet supergiant. 5years in with GME, stock is exactly where it was 2-3-4 years ago. This whole thing about GME is starting to sound like AMC’s excuses. I wish you guys well, don’t get me wrong. But you’re waiting for something that’s seemingly isn’t coming. RC shot down the latest squeeze to $80 himself. Why not let shareholders to take advantage of it first? Cause without our money, GME would be bankrupt by now, because there is no turnaround. Like it or not, those are the facts.

Liquidsnake959

I gambled call options on GME that could really ruin me if they don’t work out.

Literally GME has 20x'd while silver has about doubled. So GME literally has silver returns beat by a factor of ten over five years. Quite impressive if you ask me.

How’s return RNMBY vs GME at any chart? I sold GME and bought RNMBY with it. 80% return in ~3months. So i recouped everything i lost with GME in 5 years and got some on top. My DRS’ed GME was down 30-60% entire time. Even more. Since the org squeeze i’ve seen green maybe once or twice. And the last time i saw… guess what happened? RC diluted! There is no play with GME any more. If i wanted BTC, i’d buy BTC. Closing unprofitable stores isn’t turnaround.

DoubleClaim5308

Hey, so I’m very new to options, I am very confused because I purchased a call contract that expires on the 20th, and despite the stock price slowly going downward, my option price continued to rise, now the estimated profit is at 100%. What confuses me most is that I also filled a buy order for a call contract at the same strike price around the same time, only difference being the expiration date is tomorrow. I’m very new, only ever bought and sold options today other than when I bought the GME put shown in the second picture for .24 around a week ago, very lucky considering it was my first ever option sell and it 10x, sorry had to add this because I can only assume the odds of this happening are unreal. Also, any advice on how to know when is a good time to sell would be greatly appreciated, I could have made much more on the trade this morning had I held longer but I don’t know what I’m doing. Thanks in advance. Sorry for rambling, don’t normally make posts on Reddit. [screenshots of contracts mentioned.](https://imgur.com/a/SjthbXj)

Ya, but they don't have the spicy asymmetric risk that GME presents.

DeadSol

Not quite sure where you got your number. Also not sure why exactly you are treating shareholder equity in shares and something different than just the overall outstanding... Here's what Chef GPT and I were able to come up with. 🧾 GME Post-Earnings + Bond Offering Breakdown (June 12, 2025) — Updated Cash Floor 💰 TL;DR: GameStop has ~$8.9 billion in total liquidity after Q1 earnings, new bond offerings, and a large Bitcoin buy. Assuming full dilution from convertibles, the cash per share floor is ~$15.58. Here's the math 👇 🔢 Shares Outstanding Base Shares (June 5): ~447 million April Convertible Bonds: $1.5B @ $26.40 → ~56.8M shares June Convertible Bonds (full allotment): $2.0B @ ~$30 → ~66.7M shares ✅ Fully Diluted Estimate: ~570.5 million shares 💵 Cash Breakdown (Excluding BTC First) Source Value Q1 Cash + Securities $6.386B June Bond Proceeds +$2.000B Total Cash (excl. BTC) $8.386B 💸 Cash per Share (Fully Diluted): $8.386B ÷ 570.5M ≈ $14.70 🟧 Now Add BTC BTC Holding (as of June 10): 4,710 BTC Current Price (June 12): ~$106,110 🟢 Total Value: ~$500 million Source Value Cash + Bonds $8.386B BTC Value +$0.500B Total Liquidity $8.886B 💸 Cash + BTC per Share (Fully Diluted): $8.886B ÷ 570.5M ≈ $15.58

The market cap of GME is bow almost equivalent to their cash on hand. I would be putting my money there.

They have a bunch of cash with no plan bro. That’s why I personally never accumulated GME shares. What’s the end goal for a game store in the 21st century where everyone buys games electronically now??? I’m not a hater, I promise I’m not. I just can’t see the bigger picture for GME and that’s why I don’t hold it.

HankScorpio2020

You're not going to see that $16k again, but you might get some of it back if you cover. GME spiked down to $22 today from $30 thanks to a fundraise. It hasn't been below $21 all year, and they are hoping to mirror $MSTR's convoluted $BTC scheme. I don't think it hits $16, let alone $15.67.
