After Friday’s close, SI reached 70.97M from Jan 21’s SI of 70.46M. Institutional cost of borrowing also increased very slightly to 24.2%.

We know GME absolutely ripped in Friday due to gamma hedging. Some old shorts covering could have been the main reason behind the ignition switch but I am not very confident about that.
GME is already ripping in pre-market and I don’t know what’s triggering that. Maybe it’s retail euphoria.
Looks like we will continue to have gamma squeezes, tweets from Papa Cohen etc until shorts are forced to cover and close most of their shorts. I am changing my thesis. I thought we will see a slow TSLA-esque short-covering in GME. Looks like we are setting up for something much quicker.
