I’m sorry I don’t have the time to transcribe the video above, but it’s very interesting in combination with above and below information.

With Collateralized Debt falling, SHF are fuked. It’s that simple.

Gamestop has 4 billion in cash, ready to snap up value positions at a deep discounted prices. IMO, if RC wanted to transition into a holding company, that door just opened wide and, in the next few weeks, will open wider.

RC can walk through with a 4 billion dollar bag and snap up a mountain of fire sale stocks. Sleep well, my friends. Your rich uncle is about to make some game-changing moves.

Companies like UBS are about to find out it’s not worth hiding Credit Suisse bags anymore. SHF collatteral securing their short positions just flipped on them.

So the question becomes: Are they going to throw billions more away trying to defend those shorts?

Margin calls are inevitable. This is the beginning of the SHF, MM, and Primebrokers eating each other. IMHO.

Eclipsing everything right now IMHO. USB is holding $1.2 billion of inherited SWAPs from Credit Suisse intended to be due in August 2024.

Convicted Bill Hwang https://www.reuters.com/legal/jury-reaches-verdict-archegos-founder-hwangs-criminal-trial-2024-07-10/

TLDR: with the weight of 20 years upon Bill Hwang per count, there’s a good chance Hwang will take a rat package.

If Bill Hwang starts to sing for leniency this could be unsettling for any traders that are doing the same things he did, right now how many firms are doing exactly what he did?

With prison now a reality I have to think that UBS merger with Credit Suisse and their inherited $1.2 billion SWAP bag is probably burning a hole in every executives stomach right about now.

Update: This is a friendly reminder why this post just became the most underated post about Gamestop.

TLDR: As I stated in my first post (17) days ago I suggested that Bill Hwang would be a great candidate for the (rat🐀 package). Now we have two new major cases including Andrew Left and Citadel Defendants, Peter Thiel, Vivek Ramaswamy, Joe Lonsdale, Rick Jackson, Nick Ayers and others named in the Georgia RICO suit.

13 reasons why I HODL Gamestop. IMHO we now have (seven) people that can blow the lid off this whole market manipulation situation concerning Gamestop.

With real consequences of prison time of (20) years per count this is no longer a small fine, slap on the wrist type punishment.

One if not all of these people have extreme motivation to speak up and take the rat package. Maybe it has already started. 🤔

Further, why would anyone continue to manipulate Gamestop illegally (the same way) while the current investigations are open, or in the process of sentencing with decades behind bars.

This should put the fear of God into anyone with knowledge of wrongdoing or anyone who continues to break the laws while at work because their management allowed it in the past.

Remember the first to talk always gets the best deal no matter what enforcement branch is on your ass. The spider web has begun. How far this will go is based on who speaks first, who is linked and decades of their freedom being taken.

The old way firms handled this: “just do it, I’ll pay the fine later” is out the window IMO.

Have a great weekend stay zen this thing is about to blow the lid off some of these criminal conspiracy cases.

Stay zen, I think this is bullish AF power to the players. They’re trying to cover enormous SWAPS positions IMHO.

If you go through Richard Newtons OPEX tailwind data it’s always been calling for August. I could be wrong but it’s looking like the named firms can’t handle the margin calls that either already came or are about to come on their collateralized positions.

The puzzle pieces are falling into place.🧩💯✅️
