Hey all. Writing this a few days after the 12/6/23 Q3 10Q release from GameStop, which showed the third consecutive stagnate reporting for DRS ownership (after controlling for Mainstar un-DRSing 1.2million shares during Q2)....
One way to help is spread the message to users on other platforms. Talk about DRS as much as you can and there is even stickers and business cards that are created by the whydrs team to help spread the DRS message IRL
It is a community that are invested in BBBY. We have followed the bankruptcy process and dockets to better understand our investments. There is a belief that Ryan Cohen who is listed as a creditor and interested party will buy BBBY and merge it into a new company to challenge Amazon. There was a subreddit called thePPshow but was banned by reddit. They also have a Youtube livestream where they discuss and just today had Bill Pulte join.

Same but also felt there have been so many stories that I have been missing. Another issue with US based media is it only focuses on the US vs the world which creates just as much issues. We are very interconnected with everyone and the criminals at the top do not care about borders. Many of these organizations I linked do a great job looking at global problems from journalist directly on the ground and are local

There are also more loop holes such as if you own a Yacht or private jets you can use it as a tax write off, if you own horses for horse racing you can also deduct it off taxes along with owning your own sports team. ProPublica has done an amazing job with investigating tax loopholes
Some of you may have seen in the other place a post recently about forming an AIG. I don’t think its a particularly controversial statement to say that most of the get-shit-done Apes are long gone from the other place. For the sake of brevity I’m going to call the Apes in the Miller eco-system the dream team. You know who...
An AIG will be perfect in using our voice within the market. It will give us more credibility with the SEC and the Company. We will be able to push for changes on DRS and if need be getting a board seat to speak to what we would like. There are so many changes that can be made with shareholder resolutions:www.whydrs.org/shareholder-proposals-guide
Sadly there is not that much information out there in how to create one. We will be the first of hopefully many. With this organization we can push for DRS in not only gamestop but also the whole market. ShareAction whom I have contact with targets Asset managers and Pension funds to support their proposals on ESG. This puts pressure on the company and encourages change and will gradually put pressure on other companies to do the same. Wall Street really does not like Activist investors as they mess with their game they have rigged. Imagine if household investors who are getting introduced more and more to the market learn about the power of shares and the benefits of being invested in a company.
TLDR: Theory is AST who is owned by Equiniti getting bought by Gamestop and then BBBYQ shares and subsequently Teddy shares go on blockchain and the NFT marketplace
Last month I discussed with a member from ShareAction on ways to build an AIG. It is looking like creating a not for profit organization will be the best way to do so. With a not for profit we will have flexibility to bring together voting power of shareholders and create research on DRS....
Hey guys I have some shares of bbby bought in Trading 212 app and I just wanted to ask what happens next? I’m from central Europe and I have not received any e-mail or any in app message about my shares being taken/sold like some of you guys have. The only thing that’s changed is that the buying option is no longer possible...
The stock has moved to expert market which retail cannot buy on after the SEC changed rules back in 2021. Many people are DRSing to prevent their broker from force liquidation however I am not sure how it works on Trading 212.
We are currently waiting on an updated plan to see if we are going to be liquidated which as of the recent 8k we may have an effective date of September 30.
The transfer agent for BBBYQ is AST not computershare which sadly they are not as good as CS. I DRSd a large portion +95% of mine just to be safe. After seeing how much DRS is suppressed and how it gives me clear ownership of my shares especially when the stock is heavily naked short. It is up to you to decide what is the best way and what you are comfortable with.
As we are building out the whydrs database and beginning to form an AIG, I created this letter to help begin advocating. Unions are the perfect organizations to help spread the messaging around an AIG as they already have the structure put into place and some companies even give workers shares. If you would like to learn more...
Those are some good edits! I agree it will be important to discuss our interview with Gary as it helps give us some more authority. Making the statement broad is a good idea as it can help demonstrate the actions unions can take as shareholders and all the benefits. We can edit this letter and then create a list of unions and contact information so we can begin networking. We should also make a letter for asset managers and pension funds for DRS as they will be key in spreading information
Trimbath keeps banging the drums on FTD’s but GME has very little FTD’s going on. I do think FTD’s are a big problem and they should carry consequences but I don’t think it’s the biggest problem....
The way I understand is that FTD are a symptom of infinite liquidity for what they are unable to close out. When there is huge action and more buys are going on this is when they lose control and we see more FTD.
In the congressional hearing they even mention that infinite liquidity is just part of the system as they try to allow everyone to buy.
They have had years to learn how to hide their crime. It’s a mix of PFOF, FTD, swaps and probably much more that we have yet to uncover that allows them to hide it all from both us and the SEC. The issue is they have the tools and with both a hedge fund and a market maker branch are able to internalize everything in their system preventing outside eyes. Are there other metrics that we are missing? Is the Consolidated audit Trail (CAT) not enough and have loop holes we have not noticed. What about the netting system?
The only way we are able to find out and take away liquidity is to DRS. Eliminate the middleman and take back ownership
As we have been on this journey for the last 2 and half years we have accumulated knowledge regarding market structure, hedge fund influence, loopholes utilized to manipulate price, and how to own shares in our own name. We have been beaten down by corrupt mods and have had to migrate a few times during this journey. We are...
