But isnt the point of shorting that the price is going to crash?

Yea but you have a relatively short time window for that to happen.  These stock bros are basically keeping the price high long enough to force a call on that short position.  Shorting is borrowing shares basically.

billionaire hedge funders.

I think they will be the market based losers in this scenario.

I tried to think about which side I would put my own money on. (1) I don't think these dudes below are going to want to back down at all - especially after already going in for a couple billion. (2) This is what they do. (3) They have billions more at their disposal.

Steve Cohen's Point 72, Ken Griffin's Citadel, and other partners are plowing a total of $2.75 billion into Melvin Capital, the hedge funds said on Monday. They will receive non-controlling revenue shares in Melvin in return for their money.

There's zero chance you guys could talk me into getting a vaccine.

You already had the ‘rona, don’t need you

Because they tweeted this out,  I'm assuming we're done? If they are done here there will only be 19 players in this class, 6 scholarships short of what's allowed.

No sir 3 more.  Whoever else they land won’t be here for spring ball though.

Who are the other three? They announced 14 on early signing day, and these five transfers.

They plan to take 3 more transfers.  Also I believe they have Hadley Panzer as a counter for this year.

The SEC can make both sides losers

Not the billionaire hedge funders. Not a chance.

Yea kind of makes you wonder if he is just giving Gene the finger and telling him to give him his buyout

You can't just add vaccinations to the total of estimated infected. There will end up being a lot of overlap between the people who were infected but never tested and those who get the vaccine.

If it’s an overlap of 50% that’s still 50MM people and speeds up the date of hers immunity a full month

7373
25MM people have got it, how many do we need to reach herd immunity? I’m reading somewhere around 85% of population.   So 280 need to be immune to it 25 have been vaxxed, maybe 20 have got the actual virus and will have immunity so that leaves like 230 or so that need to get the shot. 2MM doses a day for 230MM people is 115 days.  If we started hitting 2MM tomorrow it would be end of May to reach our goal.

I've seen estimates of 100M have gotten the virus.  There are 25M confirmed.

Damn that changes the equation significantly
