Madlads and Stonks!
 
If you head over to reddit now(Jan 2021) it is now full of memes as it appears that r/wallstreetbets has pinched and trapped a hedge fund, for a few BILLION US dollars, that was trying to destroy a publicly traded used game shop corporation. It will brobably bankrupt several minipulator trading firms. Even the conservative American and communist subreddits are in on the fun while the US government is trying to figure out how to save these corporations from small time investors.
Of interest here aside from the memes and LOLs is that they are also apparently attacking short positions held against Nokia.
It is fun watching regular people breaking the nice things of billionaire raiders who have been ripping us off for decades.
Maybe this can be revenge for the burning platform doublecross.

Some small Australian mining company also blew up because they have a similar ticker to gamestop.

So it would appear the perpetrators of the short squeeze scheme ran the gamut of brains.
