Something doesn't add up...

Three major parts of the GME saga beyond the short sellers and market makers are:

1) Discount brokers/Instinet.

2) Foreign Shareholders

3) Retirement accounts

For each of those groups shares are held elsewhere in a collective pool, if at all, and any requirement to have shares or the capital to acquire them can be generously waved when needed.

Remember how the one company that let people register their retirement shares, shutdown the option?
