As if the implosion of untethered corruption weren't reward enough!
In more words: there are a spectrum of possible outcomes, but I do think there is a significant possibility that in attempting to deliver the underlying securities and thus closing out net short positions, the market price would go astronomically high, and that some of that could be paid for by liquidation of other institutional assets. I don't have enough confidence in capitalist financial institutions to assign high probability to "full" payouts at MOASS market prices, but even "merely" the destruction of exploitative wealth hoarding necessary for a partial payout would result in more financial equality and less financially-driven social dysfunction, which is motivation enough for me. (Also worth keeping in mind that the exposure is not limited to individual short parties, but also to all members of the relevant clearing/depository organizations, pursuant to the rules of those organizations and their own individual self interests.)
Do we have information about the current short positions against GME? In all the time that passed it's entirely possible that they clandestinely got rid of that nuke under the rug of all the fuckery that went on.
