Summary:
Gamestop, the brick and mortar videogame retail chain has widely been considered a "dying brand" making it a frequent target for naked short selling making hedge funders rich. Naked shorting is exploiting a loophole allowing nonexistant shares to be sold that are never verified, and then buy them back at lower cost, essentially robbing a company's IPO.
4chan /biz/ and the subreddit r/wallstreetbets came up with a question: How do you turn naked shorting against the investors? The Answer:
Pump it up with investments forcing the investment firms to buy back the shares at HIGHER costs
