CBDT

I'd hate to say it, but CBDT was doing just fine before all these retail investors went nuts and started putting CBDT on all these different forums and pumping the stock.  All that extra attention is probably what caught the eye of  the hedgefunds to short the stock.   Had we just layed low the company would probably still be trading between 1.80 and 2.50 with minor pullbacks.   But when your hitting number #1 on a number of different forums be ready to also attract the shorters.  They probably didn't even know this company existed until the over pumping began.   It's best to keep your mouth shut when you discover a gold mine.

Finally a holder I agree with. But no you didn't keep your gloating down. People already notice a stock going up that fast so quick to begin with. Then the real DD started and it was clear it was overvalued and you all overextended and made it worse but by pumping up new investors as it tanked and buying more stocks yourself that you are now realizing were at an inflated value. Didn't ...more

There lies the problem with most retail traders...they buy off emotions, then when the stock drops, they go straight to denialand will not admit that they screw up. the stock IMO should be trading around $1- $1.25. nothing more nothing less...they are going to open 3 clinics yes but the revenue is going to generate probably 6months to a year from now. If you're long on this stock, then you ...more

Don't believe that comment for 1 second. Sorry. Most hedge fund managers are not on bullboards looking for the next big short. I hope more people post CBDT and we get a GME short selling slaughter or big news release of nasdaq listing and get into bigger players hands. Regardless of what happens it's good to see retail invsetors are coming together to hammer these Hedge fund greedy dogs. I ...more

The step ahead is the new investors becoming short sellers. This is chess not checkers. ESP on these much easier to manipulate smaller stocks.  When you get it after the hype you prob got in late. Low key shorting is becoming bigger than ever esp with smaller investors

Well, they certainly haven't shied away from short selling CBDT.  And I don't see the Reddit or WSB group making any big moves to put on a short squeeze.

Give it some time. This hasn't hit the mainstream yet.
Comment by TheeRook on Mar 03, 2021 2:13pm
The news already hit and its down.  Testing is optional.  Who is going to fork out a couple hundred for an optional test when they get a temp check and wear a mask. Continuing health & safety efforts will include mandatory face coverings and a temperature check for everyone entering the marketplace. New measures include expanding capacity to 100% across campus and concierge ...more

It doesn't matter if tesing is optional in Texas, It's not optional if you are flying into other countries, you must be tested.  And it's not optional if required by a private business or venue.  
Comment by Nuclearman on Mar 03, 2021 3:03pm
My place of employment has mandatory testing every week. Right now it is up the nose very uncomfortable they are exploring other options like the one empower provides. We have been told this. Will be around for years to come no chances taken.
Comment by inviolablspirit on Mar 03, 2021 2:18pm
What I find interesting or ironic is most of the shorting looks to be occuring on the ATS from Aequitas NEO.  Aequitas NEO is a new exchange put in by IIROC designed around the core values of fairness, liquidity, efficiency and unrivalled client service. The Idea is to create a better lising experience for a company and reduce the effects of things like high frequency trading and shorting ...more

Before the squeeze on Gameboy, Rocket, BB happened it was about a 4 week period of chatter and build up before they decided to make a move. It all happened when the word was given in 1 day. Not sure anyone could predict even if CBDT will have that luxury but getting the word like many have been doing on WSB  does not hurt and possibly make the shorts sellers think twice about continuing to ...more

Honestly there isn't a lot of really safe squeezes left. That's why cbdt getting hit hard. Ironically lots of the people who made money against the hedges are also squeezing in some places lol
