Oh that's good stuff! Q: Is there some kind of calendar deadline for HFs to buy back they fake shares? What stops them from from kicking the can down the road indefinitely?
That’s a question we’ve been pondering for a while and the truth is we’re not entirely sure. Eventually they will run out of money because they have to pay interest to their share lenders (shorting a stock requires borrowing a stock from someone else) although it seems like they’re all collaborating to keep the short interest percentage low. So honestly we don’t know for sure. On /r/superstonk you can read their analyses, there seems to be a number of indicators for price movement, some of which seem to have been more or less reliable (search for Elliott waves and FTD cycles on that sub for more). I wish I could give you more information but honestly I would just be reiterating what I have read there so you may just want to go research there. & there are a few must read posts. I think you can find them pretty quick by sorting for top of all time on that sub but if not you can search there: “Citadel Has No Clothes,” “House of Cards I,” “House of Cards II,” and “House of Cards III”
