Can someone please explain why stocks like Nokia NOK, are part of this Reddit list. Isn’t the sense in all this that there are more borrowed shares than actual shares. Forcing the shorts to buy the stock back at any price?
 Nokia doesn’t have that many shorts

Pump and dump schemes gets the SEC very angry, doesn't matter if you are licensed and regulated or not. But I think they just like the stock

Is anyone saying anything about GME other than an engineered short squeeze?
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

its only getting caught up in the hype and not going anywhere near short squeeze territory (although i wouldn't mind because I have a position in NOK for its 5g tech investment)
the real plays are GME and then AMC, BBBY, BB, EXPR, and SPCE
Word of caution these are EXTREAMLY dangerous games that will burn most badly (if you want to get in to them, i think that its a little safer to buy after hours and get out before market opens and shorts attack)

Td ameritrade and etrade are saying that gme is not available for short sell. Will it open up for short selling at all ?

Yes there have been accusations of market manipulation against the hive minded retail buyers (which is most ironic) and as a result they now include disclaimers every time they post about the stock

I'll explain it assuming you haven't heard yet what's been going on... gme short interest was over 100% of tradable shares (up to 140% at one point). For an investor to short shares of a stock, their broker needs to find shares available to be borrowed from another person's account (market makers don't need to borrow). There are no longer any borrowable shares to be found, partly because they've already been borrowed and partly because gme enthusiasts are buying up shares and designating them as non-borrowable to shorters.

Eventually this will clear up and shares will become borrowable again but don't count on being able to short during this frenzy

If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

Reddit shut down the WSB thread. Should we invite them here?
