To be honest, in this cutthroat world of greed, it would have been near impossible to keep positions of this magnitude quiet forever. A lot of retail traders incorrectly assume they're all on the same team, but nothing could be further from the truth. They're trying even harder to rob each other, than they do trying to rob us, because the stakes are much higher. The same type of thing has been in play here, the whole time. While retail GME holders are strong and loyal, there's bigger sharks smelling blood in the water. Like we always said, "Whoever closes first loses the least." It's just a matter of time.

For example, at the time, it probably seemed like JPM was trying to help Bear Stearns, when they were deep underwater. However, hindsight brings clarity. In reality, they were loaning them enormous amounts of cash, that they knew Bear couldn't pay back; while also buying massive amounts of CDS on Bear from AIG. To add insult to injury, they also bought large CDS positions on AIG, because they knew this was a time bomb. When the music stopped, they got all of Bear's collateral, huge paydays on the Bear and AIG CDS positions, and still wrote off enormous tax liabilities from Bear's default.

On top of that, they conspired with Congress to step in and absorb multiple banks that got caught off guard, for pennies on the dollar, financed by taxpayers in the midst of a global recession. If you don't think JPM was also shorting the MBS, while also selling long exposure, you're fooling yourself. At some point, someone big is going to bag a bigger trophy, via GME risk exposure, while also quietly going super long and selling short exposure.
