Nah, that's old news. Visit /r/ShortSqueeze or /r/ShortSqueezeArmy for their next target. And it wouldn't be hedge funds taking it down, because there's a Discord backup.

Ha ha those subs merely need to name a target and job done, the shorters will self squeeze.
I don't know. There aren't that many people in them.

To be fair there were only like 250,000 subscribers to wallstreetbets or less when this started. Nowhere near the millions of subscribers WSB has now.

There were over 2 million subscribers to WSB before this started.

OK, I am looking at the graph again and I agree it is probably more like 2 million vs 9 million, yeah? That's still a lot more eyeballs later. I don't think WSB will ever be the same.

Short sellers told reddit to halt?
No, the price went up significantly so maybe people are flooding into r/wsb to see what's going on
