      It’s a short squeeze. The company was pooping so it was heavily shorted. Then changing the company to a AI created some buying pressure then short needed to cover and all of sudden short squeeze started. It’s going to come right back down but this is a classic case of short squeeze.

      They announced they are refocusing out of shoes to be an AI infrastructure company. Not kidding – from retail to very high tech with the same management team. Proof of the AI bubble.

      I know I’m not the first to say it, but it sure appears the economy is being run by toddlers right now. A shoe company re-imagines itself as an AI infrastructure company, when the actual AI infrastructure companies are flat out unable to build new data centers, and this is somehow worth an over 600% increase in stock price. I understand, as pointed out below, a short squeeze is the cause of most of that, but there should not have been any buying pressure to start that squeeze in the first place.

    4. An example of why shorting a stock, no matter how bad the company might seem, is fucking dangerous to your net worth.

      The most insane speculative bubble in history is happening, thanks to the Keynesian fraudsters at the Fed and their deranged money printing.

      The way this company tied itself to “tech” has always been far fetched. Remember they did this for the valuation prior to going public.
      It’s like the WeWork shoe edition. As someone who works in the shoe industry, this makes zero sense to me.

      I had to do quick research to make sure this was indeed the company that I bought a pair of flats from… this is a wild pivot for a “sustainable” shoe company

    8. As I stand here in my All Birds wanting to buy more, knowing that cant happen anymore
