Quick tldr:

Ebay took over etsy DEPOP on thursday last week for 1.4 B

Gamestop did a 1.4 b debt dilution straight on the next monday.

This was needed to keep the ebay deal neutral.

Investors or banks wanted this.

1.4b from ebay cash position, so 1.4b debt gone from gamestop to keep it at zero change.

Cohen will do something the coming 1/2 weeks to get the VWAP up! He isnt letting shorters win and dilute 75m shares at 19….

See the volume today at 2m? Almost zero.. so low again, strange right? No it isnt… they are scared to hedge or short gamestop more because they know nothing is sure till the 23st September.

Hedge gamestop by shorting now? Can be a big trap for shorters, what if they short now at 19? Well gamestop is worth 19$ on cash alone..

If news comes from a Tender Offer on ebay with NO dilution, and full cash bid the price explodes!

The shorts from 19$ will be under water straight and it will cause them to cover! So they are scared to short now.

Thats why shorted shares stays at 55M total the last weeks ;)
