Watchlist: 1/28 The Hedge Funds Are Wrong

Market Notes:

GME peaked over $500 this morning. If you liked shorting it at $50 you’ll love shorting it at $500.

Some are saying the market is broken. Wallstreetbets was taken down briefly but is back up now. As much as people want to hate on the retail investors don’t forget what caused this mess.

The driver of this massive squeeze was the fact that institutional players were allowed to short 140% of the company’s stock.

So as much as everyone wants stock prices to be based on earnings they aren’t. Stock prices are set by buyers and sellers. This move wouldn’t be possible without shorting. As long as people continue to bet against GME it has the potential to surge up.

The rest of the market was down yesterday, not sure that anyone noticed. The SPY dropped more than 2.5%, the VIX rose 60% as volatility surged.

I’m bearish this morning unless WSB gets behind it.
