Hertz was within a day of issuing more shares before the SEC told them to fuck off because it was bankrupt and the prospectus was literally “you will likely lose all of your money immediately”.

GameStop has had enough time to do an additional offering. It can happen in a couple of days.

Your timing is off, Hertz was selling shares in the morning, and stopped when SEC called them. They stopped selling promptly, but not before "Hertz Global issued 13,912,368 shares under the ATM Program for net proceeds of approximately $29 million"

Gamestop already had an ATM offering they registered for in December; I'm awaiting the news of what price they sold at with popcorn at the ready.
