(Part 1) Let's do some math! - $AMC

Based on the data reported to S3, there was a return of 1.4M shorted shares this week (1.6% of the total 88.2M shares sold short).
(Part 2) They covered 1.4M shorted shares while returning another 27.6M that they had borrowed for the sake of shorting but it was likely to be an awful idea due to risk exposure.

Now, we have an increasing amount of institutions prohibiting short selling.
(Part 3) If short sellers only covered 1.6% - the share price went up roughly 86%. If we're tracking this proportionally with the price increase per percentage point of SI covered going forward...
(Part 4) This would mean a percentage gain of 5,188% over 05/06/2021 closing price at $47.91.

Meaning $2,485.60 / share - based on official data.
(Part 5) We also have 133M of FTD's needing to be fulfilled and paid out.

That's the only visible part of the iceberg - like the visible light of the spectrum.

But wait, there's more!!

What about what's underneath the iceberg?

How far is the rabbit hole?
(Part 6) Let's not forget short sellers can effectively use a loophole into the options chain to hide some short positions and effectively spoof the movement of the SI rate.
(Part 7) There are naked short selling (fully admitted on freaking national television thanks to the vivid reaction of @MelissaLeeCNBC)

There are genius groups of united apes & cats concluding there is a form of disparity based on abnormal trading volume versus the float...
(Part 8) ...leading us to believe the supply in the open market is already scarce and the short ladders we have seen (especially coming from dark pool activity) were effectively done by high frequency trading.
(Part 9) We also have a disparity of current shareholders - only 3.2M in the Northern Western Hemisphere (Canada & US only) - disregarding foreign states with international shareholders joining the movement.
(Part 10) So we have proof of disparity - yet there are outstanding due diligence out there by united apes & cats to believe there are speculatively billions of synthetic shares.
(Part 11) We are buying time until there are rulings to be put in place needing to be filed, approved, and enforced for the said recalling of synthetic shares driving significantly the price up.
(Part 12) We have some governing bodies watching closely what's going on - unlike what happened in $GME in January so there would be few, if not, no third-party screw-ups disrupting the supply and demand chain.
(Part 13) As long retail investors are buying and holding, this would force institutional short sellers offering better prices until they go bust.

Sounds pretty good to me.
(Part 14) With the official data + what's underneath the iceberg, that is the MOASS we're waiting for.

It makes no sense to sell (not financial advice) until everything is covered officially including what's left in the rabbit hole.

Patience is the name of the game.

*Mic Drop*
Correction on part 5:

I mistakenly took the aggregate data instead.

So as of 5/14 that’s 126,435 FTDs.

(Part 1) Remember the Big Short (2015)? - $AMC

A couple of geniuses finding out many B / BB mortgage bonds are defaulted and rating agencies covered everything making the public believing the market was still going strong because it's "good business" for banks.
(Part 2) These geniuses bought credit default swaps (CDS) and shorted the entire mortgage market betting against the stupidity of greedy institutions. When these bonds went bust, bankers were literally crying because these shorters controlled all of the supply needed to survive.
(Part 3) Fast forward with $AMC (& any highly shorted securities) - the bullish market lasted for so many years - many parties being overextended with large amount of margin, credit, and debt.

(Part 1)

Prohibiting on short selling on $AMC:

- Jefferies, Citigroup, Bank of America

Prohibiting short selling on $GME:

- Jefferies

Prohibiting short selling on $MVIS:

- Jefferies
(Part 2) This is a phenomenon that is indicative that these highly shorted securities are extremely hazardous, based on risk assessment - requiring an increasing collateral requirement to maintain these shorts as potential losses are very high - if not guaranteed.
(Part 3) Forgot to add TD Ameritrade into $GME

(Part 1)

When people are criticizing @BAMinvestor (a pioneer of behavioral analysis of the Markets - spent countless years on refining his field specialization - having a solid line of scholarly-based credibility)...
(Part 2) ...just because his PREDICTION analysis model was underperforming today.

Keyword is "prediction". His algorithmic model is based on quantitative data to let him conduct some advanced analysis which has been reliable and accurate many times over.
(Part 3) More accurate than the dedicated services I rely on or Fidelity's.

Predicting with a 80-90% accuracy on zones of strength and weaknesses for $AMC within a 10-min window is impressive.

(Part 1) Featuring a discussion with @ShortTheVix1

I remember the days when $GME took off in January, it faced a negative % SI change and people thought the stock was being covered. But it wasn't the case and doubt snowballed the price action with massive selling movement.
(Part 2)

$AMC presents shows a similar pattern with a substantial drop of the SI with more shares being returned but the value of share on loans also spiking.

In laymen's terms, they have doubled down on shorts just like I said previously with the OCC notice.
(Part 3) The inflated OI in the option chains are increasing - suggesting short sellers are placing hedges, hoping to change the price movement and also acting as a "spoof" of the SI presented on Ortex. It is not 100% conclusive but it is likely the thesis.

(Part 1) There is a sheer difference between being rich and being wealthy.

Giving credit to @profgalloway - someone who I greatly admire with his scholarly-based seminars and educated speeches.
(Part 2) We have many millionaires wasting a fortune to keep up with various expenses they cannot afford - such as paying mortgages on several properties, insurance / maintenance / loans on luxurious cars, sending kids to private schools, expensive healthcare bills...
(Part 3) ...paying alimony to your exes - They spend all of their reserve, if not most of it.

These types of rich millionaires are actually poor.

(Looking at you Nicolas Cage!)

(Part 1) Debunking this - $AMC

People are worried about AA consorting with bad institutions: Citigroup and B.Riley Securities - which is a legitimate concern.

(Part 2) But I think it's an ingenious strategic move to help the company financially and actually the mechanics of leading towards a short squeeze.
(Part 3) With the current price movement, there is so much buying pressure that we're able to grab these millions of shares like candy.
