Valid point. People in WSB are tracking shorts. Haven’t heard them call for bailing. Could be they just want to beat up the boomers.

Here is a discussion on why they think it will go up. https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/l4tu4r/why_...

Dunno how they're doing it.

Thinking aloud, it's not the easiest thing to calculate. You can can short a stock and acquire it right after without closing the two net-zero positions. Why? To mess with short interest calculations. You do lose trading fees and spreads whenever you do it.

Then you have all of the options going around.
