View submission: /r/wallstreetbets is making international news for counter-investing Wall Street firms that want to see GameStop's stock collapse. The palpable excitement is off the charts.

It's not stupid investing, though. Yes, there's people that are absolutely going to get carried away and blown up as a result, there's certainly stupid investors, but the investment strategy here is solid as a rock: Short-sellers are massively overexposed, more Gamestop Stock is being shorted than actually exists, and as payment comes due on those stocks, the shortsellers are having to buy stock at whatever the market will sell it to make good.

Its just not going to last forever, and it's impossible to tell when the bottom's going to drop out of it...
