Short volume can be misleading if a stock has a huge amount of options traded. If a market maker buys a call or sells a put, they also sell shares against that trade. So if a stock is trading $50 and you own it and want to sell a covered call, a market maker will buy the call from you, then sell shares as a hedge to the call (call value goes up when the stock does, so selling shares is a hedge in price). Similar, but opposite with a put. I’m not saying that’s the case, but it could be.

HFT in general don’t trade much against HFT. They’re just on the price making side of the trade (non aggressor).

11.6 million shares can be bought by retail, but usually not at once. Retail isn’t quite organized enough to say show limit bids for $700m, while funds can. So if retail wants to buy but funds don’t, a huge share dilution will dip the company more. I don’t think any smart funds are buying and holding amc at $60 haha. That’s the reason financing is usually done in private, since there’s most likely often shady stuff, but at least the company knows the money will be there. Look how hard it is on our board to raise 10k for marjac! Amarin can approach Goldman (I know everyone hates them but...) and raise billions for funding quickly
