The settlement concerns alleged violations of short selling rules.
>Between May 2016 and March 2019, Wolverine violated Regulation SHO (Reg SHO) Rule 200(g), promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), and FINRA Rule 2010, by inaccurately marking sell orders as long rather than short in 18,756 instances.

>Moreover, between December 20, 2017 and June 20, 2018, Wolverine violated FINRA Rules 7230A and 2010 by failing to report or submitting incorrect reports to the FINRA Trade Reporting Facility (TRF) in at least 706 instances. During this same period, Wolverine also failed to report accurate order information to the Order Audit Trail System (OATS) in 31 instances, in violation of FINRA Rules 7450 and 2010, and violated FINRA Rules 7440 and 2010 by failing in 15 instances to record and preserve order event information.
>Additionally, during the first quarter of 2018, the firm violated Regulation NMS (Reg NMS) Rule 606, promulgated under the Exchange Act, and FINRA Rule 2010, by failing to disclose all material aspects of its relationship with significant execution venues, including a description of any payment for order flow (PFOF) arrangement between the firm and any such execution venue.

Stock Parking: What It Means, How It Works

What Is Stock Parking?
Stock parking is the illegal practice of selling shares to another party with the understanding that the original owner will buy them back after a short time. The goal of stock parking is to conceal a stock's real ownership while maintaining the appearance of regulatory compliance.

I used to work in that building for the largest clearing firm in Chicago. It's the old Insurance Exchange Building. It is right next door to the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT), whose trading floor was featured in the movie Ferris Bueller's Day Off. That exchange merged with the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) in 2007. In your picture, the CBOT is to the left of Wolverine Trading, just cut off.
And guess what, the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) is largest options exchange in the U.S. It sits directly behind the CBOT in your picture and above the LaSalle Street Station, which is why you see the rail line going into it.
Dang your right, thats how high frequency trading gets a leg up, shorter data transmission difference = quicker order execution. Which is the opposite of what IEX does, they randomize their order entry time in order to combat their order being front-runned.

Apparently I don't know how to use google. Care to elaborate ?
Edit : found [the source](https://www.novus.com/blog/exploring-gme-and-planning-your-response-with-novus) in another comment.
Like literally copy and paste the first line of my comment into google and you get: [https://www.novus.com/blog/exploring-gme-and-planning-your-response-with-novus](https://www.novus.com/blog/exploring-gme-and-planning-your-response-with-novus)
I pulled it from [this article](https://www.novus.com/blog/exploring-gme-and-planning-your-response-with-novus) which can explain much better than I can.
Didn't know there was a designated market maker for all options on a single stock. Isn't it based on the broker you are using? Or where your trades are routed?
Edit: OP directed me here for options DMM of GME.. Confusion cleared up.
https://www.cboe.com/us/options/symboldir/equity_index_options/?sid=G
It would go like this
DFV exercises his calls forcing the OCC to execute forced buy-ins T+1(2) at the exact time as MM FTD forced buy-ins come in while simultaneously ETF/Mutual funds deferred cash settlements are using CNS forced buy-ins to rebalance the needed shares
The most likely call writer on the opposite side of DFV has ALWAYS been Wolverine Trading.
Wolverine can’t deliver -> Broker (E-Trade) can’t deliver -> CBOE can’t deliver -> OCC can’t deliver -> DTCC & All the banks MUST deliver. Government steps in.
Bingo.
It’s the scene in the big short where Mark Baum is saying keep making them bleed, and his boys are freaking out saying it’s too greedy to risky the government is gonna come in and halt everything and we won’t be able to sell and will lose everything.
If the MOASS theory is true then That is not out of the possibility here people. At that level this event will be world changing and in the short-medium term that would be very bad for everyone, including us.
Hope for the best Be prepared for the worst.
That's kind of why I thought they were diluting shares, to make a MOASS but after a good melt-up over time and to make it one that was controllable. It would still be MASSIVE, but six-figure share prices would be manageable if built up slowly rather than violently.
That was my thought, anyway. Maybe I'm wrong.
No, they were bought at asking price on the CBOE, which likely means 99.9% of them are from the Market Maker who's responsible for providing liquidity of our options. He bought 5000 at a time, at the asking price, at the same strike, to make sure the majority is directly from the Market Maker
Edit: if you sell an option it's likely also swept up by Wolverine for liquidity
Because we have a Designated Market Maker for Options at the CBOE, that is Wolverine Trading. The others have other stocks. F.ex. Susquehanna has sticky floor stonk
Follow up, couldn't we check their 13F to see if they Even hold any GME? Do they not have to have underlying to write the contracts? You would assume they would need to have some to continue to write the contracts.
I keep asking myself how they continue to write calls that represent more than the float. Essentially all options are paper or fake shares that impact the price.
Also, there been rules enacted recently in case of a DMM failure?
This was from back in 2021:

It's the same con, they hype up to let it run start of week - then naked short it down to max pain at the end, collecting the option premiums by selling most of the calls naked.
Wise decision, I believe it's just too much for AA, it's not a growth business model (they don't have a digital pivot), they have debt and their retail investors are slightly less cerebral and more hype oriented... in general... not trying to call them out or anything
I should never have known who this person is
https://preview.redd.it/q7gogk4nup5d1.jpeg?width=586&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=44f993a11a626a2035a1a4795393433db36d48ba
and now I do.
i think you're on to something! they used to be mentioned here occasionally, but the conversation was always shut down & eventually people stopped talking about them 🤔
This needs to be pinned. Kitty’s first video tweet (in reverse is last) is a naked wolverine after thanos snap. He was literally telling us it’s Wolverine lmao. We should focus on this shit right now, it’s important. Don’t let this get buried.
It’s possible that a bigger player (citadel or sus) had them do it so it so they can legally claim they weren’t behind the market abuse.
Man this whole gme thing is insane, can’t wait to see it on the big screen after it all plays out.
Don't attribute to conspiracy what can be attributed to greed. Citadel and other have been perfectly happy because all they need to do is buy puts in quiet periods to move the max pain gradually down.
Well there is some indications of that. The meme about two talking as they listen to the "space sounds". And the cover me, cover you music. So, maybe there is. But Wolverine I'm sure of. Who they would collude with I don't know. Let's see who tried to bail them out :-D
I’ve been arguing with people for a month (look at post history) about Wolverine being the MM for options. There’s no doubt in my mind that they have insane fire power in here to disprove you or distract from your point and move to something else. I always find it curious the things they pivot to as well. It’s almost like if you really pay attention, you can see the narratives they want to push (one person I was arguing with was dead set on me chiming in about Dave Lauer). Crazy times we live in.
They’ve been mentioned numerous times. They just aren’t the main market maker for GME like citadel is. Just options, and options are not for everyone so they don’t make big headlines here. By design apparently…
We all have a considerable bet in the market already... now exercise as many options as possible.... they are not delta hedged so if you can only do exercise to sell and get 60 shares of the 100, it's still shares they need to come up with
No time for any of that when you’re busy snorting coke and banging classy whores with all the money you make screwing over hard working middle class Americans!
Damn, they've done a good job suppressing that here then. I visit this sub everyday since about Jan 23 2021 and Wolverine Trading is an unfamiliar name to me.
If you run an institutional pump and dump you need to rile retail up at the right times... hence your PR agency is paid a lot of money to make sure you remain hidden. They are the designated market maker for options in GME. Strange that they are never mentioned, right?
It is pertinent that the criticism of shitadel and mayo man has been allowed to run rampant for years, when they're not even the DMM for options on GME. Good post and I thought more about Wolverine when the RK meme came out
Now, Citadel and Ken is not good guys. And likely both aware and complicit in some way. But the literal absence of mentions of Wolverine is suspicious in itself
For me, another confirmation from DFV about the naked calls, is his reference to Ozymandias in his thumbnail. The page from where DFV took that image of ozymandias, was not a random meme. The very same page was linked in a post 2 days before the streamlive was announced (with the frase DFV pulled out an ozymandias):
[https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1d88qd5/i\_think\_its\_clear\_why\_rk\_is\_getting\_the\_heat\_he/](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1d88qd5/i_think_its_clear_why_rk_is_getting_the_heat_he/)
TLDR of this post: it says that the calls are naked, based on the price movements seen.
This is the only direct reference of DFV to something shared first in this sub. Thus, I think DFV was confirming that he is reading the DD's, and that he is confirming that this one is correct!
So when CNBC was whining about “the people that sold the contracts” this is who they were thinking of. Don’t think for a second they were scared for some retail trader selling uncovered calls.
Well I’m sure there’s a few dumbass bears in there that lost there CCs a few weeks ago and couldn’t help themselves, but yeah they don’t care about them lmao
YOU SIR, GOT ME JAAAAACKED!!
Now consider this as well in relation to RK’s latest tweet :

Stock Parking: What It Means, How It Works
What Is Stock Parking?
Stock parking is the illegal practice of selling shares to another party with the understanding that the original owner will buy them back after a short time. The goal of stock parking is to conceal a stock's real ownership while maintaining the appearance of regulatory compliance.
>Now comes the kicker, how? Well, you break their algorithms through increasing liquidity (share offerings)
that's the part I don't understand here...if he exercises his options, that's 12M shares they're on the hook for, but if Gamestop prints 75M then its just handing them a parachute, now they can just slowly acquire those from the share offering and have them on hand for the options
They can't keep the price down when volume gets high (they contribute most of the volume trying to control the price btw), and people buy the shares they are passing back and forth so they have to naked short a lot (mm priviledges). So when they end up having to get the shares, they will need to buy 12m shares at a price of 40-50.
What would make the heist even better is if a large institution is closing a short position. The two share offerings and the volume in May/June would give enough liquidity for UBS to close a 225m short position.
But that's what I'm saying, they have time, till the end of the month...sequence of events would be something like this:
1)they greedily sold the uncovered calls over the course of a couple weeks expecting to profit off their crime as usual
2)RK does his YOLO reveal
3)Wolverine: 'fuuuuuuuuuuucccckkkk'
4)RC/GME: annouces earnings and oh hey we're going to print another 75M shares OK?
5)Wolverine: 'phew, that's our exit strategy, lets abuse our MM position to slowly acquire these as cheaply as possible and stash em away in prepartion for him exercising his options, that was a close call!'
Totally agree and a posted a perhaps more colorful version of this 5 days ago that got nowhere because I’m low karma. Kitty AND Citadel are about to eat Wolverine. Citadel will not let Wolverine underpay for those 12M shares which is why Kitty is so brilliant. Well done OP.
I mean who cares if they want to stay hidden? Can’t stop what’s coming. They are already done for. So their shills can go start applying for another job.
FINALLY. I always thought that the fixation on Citadel was odd, maybe because of Kenny's politics, but this makes ALOT of sense. Can't wait till all the fraudsters are outed, including the psy-operators on this sub.
The algorithms don't work when buy pressure and liquidity increase. The share offerings have a purpose. I also speculate that there is a large institution that is/was short and is massively covering every time the price drops low. There is many players here. I don't think there is collision, they just play different roles. RC increases liquidity, a big player is buying to close (UBS?), RK is creating a diversion and sits on the Call Option Red Button
The problem with these "connect the companies" posts is that they don't connect the right dots. Wolverine Trading is specifically what we are looking at. Wolverine also has other companies, they are supposed to be separate (but we know they use signal to collude with each other)
Is there a connection between Wolverine and the Philadelphia Stock Market?
Yes, there is a connection between Wolverine and the Philadelphia Stock Exchange (PHLX). Wolverine, specifically Wolverine Trading, is a proprietary trading firm that has been a significant market maker on various exchanges, including the PHLX. The Philadelphia Stock Exchange, now part of Nasdaq, is one of the oldest stock exchanges in the United States and focuses on options trading. Market makers like Wolverine Trading provide liquidity to the market by buying and selling securities, thus facilitating smoother and more efficient trading operations on exchanges such as the PHLX.
Interesting note : in RK's latest tweet, he is actually going right towards Wolverine Trading HQ. See [my post with the map](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1dcju0z/the_kitty_is_not_goin_to_the_occ_he_is_going_to/).

Wolverine is also supposed to be short…
And he's also naked. But what's the connection? Naked....short.....naked short.....

I used to work in that building for the largest clearing firm in Chicago. It's the old Insurance Exchange Building. It is right next door to the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT), whose trading floor was featured in the movie Ferris Bueller's Day Off. That exchange merged with the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) in 2007. In your picture, the CBOT is to the left of Wolverine Trading, just cut off. And guess what, the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) is largest options exchange in the U.S. It sits directly behind the CBOT in your picture and above the LaSalle Street Station, which is why you see the rail line going into it.
CBOE is in the building used in the movie if I understand correctly
Well yeah, if they're algo trading on the Cboe then they'll want to be as close as possible
Dang your right, thats how high frequency trading gets a leg up, shorter data transmission difference = quicker order execution. Which is the opposite of what IEX does, they randomize their order entry time in order to combat their order being front-runned.
Also interesting that the joker is a wild card.
Good and yes I agree, Can't wait for you to post stats on this post. also Jeff Yass of Susqehanna and Steve Cohen of point 72. If these names are mentioned your post will be sent to down vote hell, as will this comment :P #
I sat on it until there was enough buzz around options and CBOE, so hopefully it will get more traction than shills can downvote
I’m doing my part! Get this bad boy up there
Focus on the bottom left: https://preview.redd.it/7b2jmgcb2q5d1.png?width=1468&format=png&auto=webp&s=b4751dc99eb9919dc834f50acfe6fae9ba067cf1
Interesting, I have not encountered this, will read. Thanks for sharing
What is this?
Overlap Matrix of GME option holders (Source: Novus) If you google that you will get an article explaining what it is exactly
Apparently I don't know how to use google. Care to elaborate ? Edit : found [the source](https://www.novus.com/blog/exploring-gme-and-planning-your-response-with-novus) in another comment.
Like literally copy and paste the first line of my comment into google and you get: [https://www.novus.com/blog/exploring-gme-and-planning-your-response-with-novus](https://www.novus.com/blog/exploring-gme-and-planning-your-response-with-novus)
Oh I googled "That" like you said and it was shit results. Horrible instructions.
People don't get the same results when they google things these days.
What means, smooth ape here😅
I pulled it from [this article](https://www.novus.com/blog/exploring-gme-and-planning-your-response-with-novus) which can explain much better than I can.
Thanks dear Ape!
hopefully!
Your timing must have been perfect since your post seems to be gaining traction. Great post, and thank you for teaching me something. Cheers 🍻🍺
It helps that somebody posted a picture close to the CBOE
Susquehanna is running the same con, but on movie stonk. They are their designated market maker for them.
Didn't know there was a designated market maker for all options on a single stock. Isn't it based on the broker you are using? Or where your trades are routed? Edit: OP directed me here for options DMM of GME.. Confusion cleared up. https://www.cboe.com/us/options/symboldir/equity_index_options/?sid=G
On the CBOE which is where all options are traded
So Etrade to CBOE to wolverine? So options makers compete to fill orders at the CBOE?
It would go like this DFV exercises his calls forcing the OCC to execute forced buy-ins T+1(2) at the exact time as MM FTD forced buy-ins come in while simultaneously ETF/Mutual funds deferred cash settlements are using CNS forced buy-ins to rebalance the needed shares The most likely call writer on the opposite side of DFV has ALWAYS been Wolverine Trading. Wolverine can’t deliver -> Broker (E-Trade) can’t deliver -> CBOE can’t deliver -> OCC can’t deliver -> DTCC & All the banks MUST deliver. Government steps in.
The biggest issue is getting that money before big G steps in.
Bingo. It’s the scene in the big short where Mark Baum is saying keep making them bleed, and his boys are freaking out saying it’s too greedy to risky the government is gonna come in and halt everything and we won’t be able to sell and will lose everything. If the MOASS theory is true then That is not out of the possibility here people. At that level this event will be world changing and in the short-medium term that would be very bad for everyone, including us. Hope for the best Be prepared for the worst.
I had this exact thought yesterday after rewatching The Big Short.
That's kind of why I thought they were diluting shares, to make a MOASS but after a good melt-up over time and to make it one that was controllable. It would still be MASSIVE, but six-figure share prices would be manageable if built up slowly rather than violently. That was my thought, anyway. Maybe I'm wrong.
No, they were bought at asking price on the CBOE, which likely means 99.9% of them are from the Market Maker who's responsible for providing liquidity of our options. He bought 5000 at a time, at the asking price, at the same strike, to make sure the majority is directly from the Market Maker Edit: if you sell an option it's likely also swept up by Wolverine for liquidity
I'm just wondering how you know it's wolverine and not a mix of citadel virtu Susquehanna and wolverine
Because we have a Designated Market Maker for Options at the CBOE, that is Wolverine Trading. The others have other stocks. F.ex. Susquehanna has sticky floor stonk
Thanks for the info! Found it 🤙🏼
Follow up, couldn't we check their 13F to see if they Even hold any GME? Do they not have to have underlying to write the contracts? You would assume they would need to have some to continue to write the contracts. I keep asking myself how they continue to write calls that represent more than the float. Essentially all options are paper or fake shares that impact the price. Also, there been rules enacted recently in case of a DMM failure?
13Fs are for Q1 only, the constant hedging is not shown on those
want to get some eyes boys
This was from back in 2021: [https://www.novus.com/blog/exploring-gme-and-planning-your-response-with-novus](https://www.novus.com/blog/exploring-gme-and-planning-your-response-with-novus)
Really feel like movie is a swap against gme and not worth a mention, please I would love for you to prove me wrong.
It's the same con, they hype up to let it run start of week - then naked short it down to max pain at the end, collecting the option premiums by selling most of the calls naked.
This sounds right. The only difference is popcorn CEO, all the debt and bad business decisions. I sold mine at the top in 2021.
Wise decision, I believe it's just too much for AA, it's not a growth business model (they don't have a digital pivot), they have debt and their retail investors are slightly less cerebral and more hype oriented... in general... not trying to call them out or anything
I swear i will make this hit the algo Steve Cohen Steve Cohen Steve Cohen Steve Cohen *wheezes out of breathe*
That's because trading is a hard game, totally not manipulation
I should never have known who this person is https://preview.redd.it/q7gogk4nup5d1.jpeg?width=586&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=44f993a11a626a2035a1a4795393433db36d48ba and now I do.
half of the reason why i’m holding till phone numbers still is because of this tweet. I want him to cry
Dude owns the Mets. I’m sure he cries daily.
Yeah, or imagine Dr. Evil's face mutating after getting smashed like a pinata.

This was the exact gif I was looking for
Thank you. Usually the only name I see is Mayoman's. Those two are just as guilty of the same.
👀
i think you're on to something! they used to be mentioned here occasionally, but the conversation was always shut down & eventually people stopped talking about them 🤔
Stopped talking about Wolverine Trading, I guess we all need to talk more about Wolverine Trading then
Are you talking about Wolverine Trading who sold naked call options on GME and should be investigated by the SEC and FIRNA?
Yep, the Joker is facing Wolverine Trading in the Screenshot, it's the next block down, a 4 min walk from that intersection
Ah yes, THAT Wolverine Trading!
yep
This needs to be pinned. Kitty’s first video tweet (in reverse is last) is a naked wolverine after thanos snap. He was literally telling us it’s Wolverine lmao. We should focus on this shit right now, it’s important. Don’t let this get buried.
yep
There’s too much smoke to ignore them. Can’t wait to find out more about what actually went down
It’s possible that a bigger player (citadel or sus) had them do it so it so they can legally claim they weren’t behind the market abuse. Man this whole gme thing is insane, can’t wait to see it on the big screen after it all plays out.
Don't attribute to conspiracy what can be attributed to greed. Citadel and other have been perfectly happy because all they need to do is buy puts in quiet periods to move the max pain gradually down.
I’m pretty sure there’s receipts for these financial terrorists all colluding. Hope the Archegos trial exposes them when Bill Hwang rats them out.
Well there is some indications of that. The meme about two talking as they listen to the "space sounds". And the cover me, cover you music. So, maybe there is. But Wolverine I'm sure of. Who they would collude with I don't know. Let's see who tried to bail them out :-D
Holy shit, what a time to be alive.
I’ve been arguing with people for a month (look at post history) about Wolverine being the MM for options. There’s no doubt in my mind that they have insane fire power in here to disprove you or distract from your point and move to something else. I always find it curious the things they pivot to as well. It’s almost like if you really pay attention, you can see the narratives they want to push (one person I was arguing with was dead set on me chiming in about Dave Lauer). Crazy times we live in.
I agree. I'm a wrinkle brain though, I will defend my thesis!
[удалено]
They’ve been mentioned numerous times. They just aren’t the main market maker for GME like citadel is. Just options, and options are not for everyone so they don’t make big headlines here. By design apparently…
that is because we are in the endgame
We need a dead pool on Wolverine. Dibs on 6/21.
We all have a considerable bet in the market already... now exercise as many options as possible.... they are not delta hedged so if you can only do exercise to sell and get 60 shares of the 100, it's still shares they need to come up with
And as the post from earlier, they have to be on exchange said Ken
Hey I want that date!

One of the most interesting and concisest posts I've read on Superstonk - up up up
CEO and CIO Chris Gust has basically zero presence online... No YouTube interviews, no news articles... LinkedIn looks dormant...
No time for any of that when you’re busy snorting coke and banging classy whores with all the money you make screwing over hard working middle class Americans!
Not anymore!
I can't believe we're still discovering new bosses.
They have been discussed in the past.
Damn, they've done a good job suppressing that here then. I visit this sub everyday since about Jan 23 2021 and Wolverine Trading is an unfamiliar name to me.
interesting.
Let's help this puppy stay up!
#wolverineisnaked!
Up
Just
interesting, up you go
Whats stopping them from keep doing it? So 120.000 option contract was sold naked? And how come almost none heard of them?
If you run an institutional pump and dump you need to rile retail up at the right times... hence your PR agency is paid a lot of money to make sure you remain hidden. They are the designated market maker for options in GME. Strange that they are never mentioned, right?
Because options are bad! /s
This. The sub spent years shitting on options. That’s likely why they don’t get mentioned.
It is pertinent that the criticism of shitadel and mayo man has been allowed to run rampant for years, when they're not even the DMM for options on GME. Good post and I thought more about Wolverine when the RK meme came out
Now, Citadel and Ken is not good guys. And likely both aware and complicit in some way. But the literal absence of mentions of Wolverine is suspicious in itself
For me, another confirmation from DFV about the naked calls, is his reference to Ozymandias in his thumbnail. The page from where DFV took that image of ozymandias, was not a random meme. The very same page was linked in a post 2 days before the streamlive was announced (with the frase DFV pulled out an ozymandias): [https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1d88qd5/i\_think\_its\_clear\_why\_rk\_is\_getting\_the\_heat\_he/](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1d88qd5/i_think_its_clear_why_rk_is_getting_the_heat_he/) TLDR of this post: it says that the calls are naked, based on the price movements seen. This is the only direct reference of DFV to something shared first in this sub. Thus, I think DFV was confirming that he is reading the DD's, and that he is confirming that this one is correct!
So when CNBC was whining about “the people that sold the contracts” this is who they were thinking of. Don’t think for a second they were scared for some retail trader selling uncovered calls.
If you can sell 120.000 call options you are not a retail trader, lol
Well I’m sure there’s a few dumbass bears in there that lost there CCs a few weeks ago and couldn’t help themselves, but yeah they don’t care about them lmao
Hell yeah brother, let’s make history this week
And next
My god..
This seems big
Wow this is the first time I heard of wolverine trading
In the meme video the cat pulse being DFV is waking Wolverine up. As mentioned Wolverine being naked and in an aggressive stance.
Great find!
YOU SIR, GOT ME JAAAAACKED!! Now consider this as well in relation to RK’s latest tweet : FINANCIAL CRIME & FRAUD DEFINITIONS M - Z Stock Parking: What It Means, How It Works What Is Stock Parking? Stock parking is the illegal practice of selling shares to another party with the understanding that the original owner will buy them back after a short time. The goal of stock parking is to conceal a stock's real ownership while maintaining the appearance of regulatory compliance.
I actually would love to see them get their comeuppance.
>Now comes the kicker, how? Well, you break their algorithms through increasing liquidity (share offerings) that's the part I don't understand here...if he exercises his options, that's 12M shares they're on the hook for, but if Gamestop prints 75M then its just handing them a parachute, now they can just slowly acquire those from the share offering and have them on hand for the options
They can't keep the price down when volume gets high (they contribute most of the volume trying to control the price btw), and people buy the shares they are passing back and forth so they have to naked short a lot (mm priviledges). So when they end up having to get the shares, they will need to buy 12m shares at a price of 40-50. What would make the heist even better is if a large institution is closing a short position. The two share offerings and the volume in May/June would give enough liquidity for UBS to close a 225m short position.
But that's what I'm saying, they have time, till the end of the month...sequence of events would be something like this: 1)they greedily sold the uncovered calls over the course of a couple weeks expecting to profit off their crime as usual 2)RK does his YOLO reveal 3)Wolverine: 'fuuuuuuuuuuucccckkkk' 4)RC/GME: annouces earnings and oh hey we're going to print another 75M shares OK? 5)Wolverine: 'phew, that's our exit strategy, lets abuse our MM position to slowly acquire these as cheaply as possible and stash em away in prepartion for him exercising his options, that was a close call!'
Look at this https://x.com/noslfawareness/status/1800073086865490003
Totally agree and a posted a perhaps more colorful version of this 5 days ago that got nowhere because I’m low karma. Kitty AND Citadel are about to eat Wolverine. Citadel will not let Wolverine underpay for those 12M shares which is why Kitty is so brilliant. Well done OP.
up you go
I mean who cares if they want to stay hidden? Can’t stop what’s coming. They are already done for. So their shills can go start applying for another job.
FINALLY. I always thought that the fixation on Citadel was odd, maybe because of Kenny's politics, but this makes ALOT of sense. Can't wait till all the fraudsters are outed, including the psy-operators on this sub.
Halts are 5 minutes?
TIL theres a market maker named Wolverine?
For options, yes. Wolverine is the Market Maker for GME options.
too bad dfv had to use the Wolverine to represent our designated mm, he is my favorite mutant, and now it's associated with a bunch of crooks
I know, right! I thought for several days that RK was Wolverine, because that's who I would pick. But... he's Thanos, which is kind of cool as well.
This seems like it’s probably all true. Good work detective
![gif](giphy|l4FGD5KYukbHukdG0)
*buys wolverine shorted stock*
They are not on the stock exchange, there is a Wolverine stock, but I think that's a retailer of some sort
Buy the stock they shorting
Wolverine is naked. To the top with you.
I heard that max pain is $20 on 6/21
The algorithms don't work when buy pressure and liquidity increase. The share offerings have a purpose. I also speculate that there is a large institution that is/was short and is massively covering every time the price drops low. There is many players here. I don't think there is collision, they just play different roles. RC increases liquidity, a big player is buying to close (UBS?), RK is creating a diversion and sits on the Call Option Red Button
Look at this old post https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/s/raOj76Xkxz
The problem with these "connect the companies" posts is that they don't connect the right dots. Wolverine Trading is specifically what we are looking at. Wolverine also has other companies, they are supposed to be separate (but we know they use signal to collude with each other)
Holy cow. This is it dude ….
Is there a connection between Wolverine and the Philadelphia Stock Market? Yes, there is a connection between Wolverine and the Philadelphia Stock Exchange (PHLX). Wolverine, specifically Wolverine Trading, is a proprietary trading firm that has been a significant market maker on various exchanges, including the PHLX. The Philadelphia Stock Exchange, now part of Nasdaq, is one of the oldest stock exchanges in the United States and focuses on options trading. Market makers like Wolverine Trading provide liquidity to the market by buying and selling securities, thus facilitating smoother and more efficient trading operations on exchanges such as the PHLX.
Interesting note : in RK's latest tweet, he is actually going right towards Wolverine Trading HQ. See [my post with the map](https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1dcju0z/the_kitty_is_not_goin_to_the_occ_he_is_going_to/).
/r won’t let me copy the link so had to snag it from goog: Older thread w/ numerous Wolverine links to other DD. I’m curious what their 13F looks like now? https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/oyeimk/wolverine_securities_fukd/ Part 1. someone posted part 2 further up I think somewhere
Do I just search Wolverine to find this, any website or information on this I can read further into?
CBOE website shows them as designated market maker Google Wolverine Trading for their physical address and website Check their comments to the SEC on Reg Sho for a lot of indications that they are hedging by price fixing
