This is an automated archive made by the Lemmit Bot.The original was posted on /r/Superstonk by /u/Sir-Craven on 2026-05-12 11:21:59+00:00. Some say: "There are years where nothing happens; and there are days where years happen.” Yesterday was one of those days. One thing this sub has taught me, if nothing else, is to drown out the noise. Yesterday (11 May 2026), another seemingly normal day in $GME and the lives of superstonk, the market closed down at 16:00 (ET) as normal and the was stonk down (-4.57%) -$1.11, as normal. A close price of $23.17. A drop of blood. Some would say. An hour later all hell seemingly broke loose. At c17:13 (ET) Roaring Kitty posted a tweet that has since been deleted. I cant link the tweet. It has been scrubbed from twitter and I cant find a grab of it anywhere on reddit. I know it was 17:13 as the reddit post linking it was timestamped then, and you apes are quick on the draw. Curious_Individual has supplied a clip of the original Tweet as below.. The nature of the tweet was seemingly a Crypto pump and dump. Some other things also happened around the account, which could well be immaterial. Some say his account was hacked. Some say it was intentional. I am not overly interested in any of those things. I deal in facts, mostly. So imagine this. RK's twitter account posts at 17:13 and it causes a c13% upswing in the aftermarket price of $GME. The Stock runs from 23.20 up to 26.27. $GME aftermarket move 11 May 2026 This is a market cap swing of $1.4bn based on the 448m shares outstanding. From a single (innocuous) tweet. We know the algos are primed to respond to RK. Its there for all to see. This tweet had nothing to do with GME and it moved the stock $1.4bn. Think about that for a second. Now at c17.36 (20 minutes later) GameStop filed its 14A Proxy statement where it announced among other proposals, that it would be seeking shareholder approval to increase the number of shares outstanding to 2.5bn. GME 14A Proxy statement - Prop 5 Does anyone know what the mathematical odds are of the following events occurring randomly?:
Disclosure - I cant calculate these things. I bad at maths and even worse at theoretical maths, so I asked AI to do it. (YES I KNOW AI MATHS IS TERRIBLE BUT ITS STILL BETTER THAN MINE). For No1 above, Perplexity gave me a high number. Something in the hundreds of millions. So objectively speaking its highly unlikely that the movement in the stock and RK's tweet are not linked. Its just not possible. Now 1 and 2 above are not directly linked but the window is too close to ignore IMO. But like I said, trying not to deal in opinions. There are too many of them flying round. Especially at the moment. Also.. we're not done yet. See under No2 above, we have GME filing the proxy statement requesting to increase the potential shares outstanding to 2.5bn. Speculatively, the reason for this is to fund the acquisition of EBAY. Well on 30th Jan 2026 Ryan Cohen went on CNBC and he stated that what he is trying to do with GameStop is “similar to Berkshire Hathaway, except what Berkshire did in decades we’re attempting to do in a much shorter time in terms of creating that much value,”. This post from thegourdgoat, spelt it out nicely. Trying to replicate Berkshire Hathaway. Quick sidequest here. Berkshire Class A has only 1m shares.. thats why it trades at $700k a share. Berkshire Class B has 2.4bn shares. It trades at pretty much the same Market Cap as BRK-A, but you instead divide that $1tn Market Cap by the 2.4bn shares outstanding and you get the $480 that BRK-B is trading at. At $500 there would be quite a few Apes who would be very happy with those numbers organically outside of a MOASS situation (not fud). So firstly dont let anyone tell you that good prices cant occur for stocks with 2bn shares in float. They can and do. AAPL has 15bn shares and trades at $300. It has a 4TN Market cap. At 4tn Market Cap and 2bn shares outstanding, GameStop would be trading at around $2000 a share. Starting to sound a little more like it. Anyway not to digress, the reason that is relevant, poignant even, is so. Last night while everyone was pissing their pants over dilution and hacked accounts. In between shitposting, I happened to take a glance at BRK-B: $BRK-B and $GME aftermarket 11 May 2026 I also happened to screenshot it. You can go check the charts. That Anne Hathaway B spike has been removed now. I didn't get a proper clip of the dip. It appeared to flux between 479.26 and c453.50. That's roughly a 5% drop. With 2.1 bn shares outstanding that 5% dip translates to a c$55bn swing in market cap. You will also see that the Anne Hathaway B dip occurred at - you guessed it 17:13 ET. The exact time that RK tweeted and the exact moment that GME spiked 13%. There are theories out there that suggest random prints on tickers, that are later removed, are linked to off exchange activity (Swaps and OTC trades).. Its also long been suggested that swaps involving BRK have been used to offset volatility too.. More speculation. But going back to the maths. What are the odds that things that are seemingly connected, are in fact random. RK Tweets, GME Spikes 13% and BRK-B drops 5%, causing $57bn in Market Cap adjustment all within the same minute? Well I asked AI and assuming these are connected, the odds these events all occurring randomly and not being linked is .. about 1 in 36.5 billion. Now one thing we know for certain, is that GME is being supressed. So lets put all of the objective facts together.
In amongst the noise and the drama, when everyone was looking left, I looked right, and I saw what you were not supposed to see. If such a swap occurred following the RK tweet and GME/BRK.B move, we could perhaps infer that a market participant may have been adjusting a large book very quickly. The price shock in GME could have forced wider accounts to be rebalanced, or because a single entity had a position that needed to be offset at the same time. But yeah, lets deal in facts. Its astronomically unlikely that these 'connected events' occurred randomly within 1 minute of each other. TLDR: Fuckery afoot. |
