Writing this since I don't want to see others get burned. Was one hell of a ride up (sadly I was late to the party) but its clearly now being offloaded by SRS and Pentwater at this level. Yesterdays sloppy action showed a ton of distribution (look at that volume) and soon its going to be retail hands only. And then the institutional shorting begins and with this squeeze in particular, its will be violent due to the positioning being mainly two holders (who will likely be out and potentially be shorting by then) and not as much retail with gains they can play with. PM's love getting both sides of a trade since it makes twice the use of the research done.
For all the likely hate by optimistic traders: I understand why you (and all of us) want to see it continue. I love seeing shorts burned (like a lot). I have worked at some of the biggest hedge funds and private equity funds before quitting for a new career and trading on my own.
Avis Squeeze is Officially Over. SRS, Pentwater are out.

Prove they are out. Your claim itself is not convincing at all.
i am considering FLWS for now. Would like to load more tomorrow.

Simple questions, since you worked at a hedge fund 😉
First, Why would Pentwater sell when Avis is in a black out period and there is no risk of an offering? They have two weeks to trap even more shorts.
Second, when Pentwater does sell they would call all shares off loan which would cause the stock to spike. Did that happen? Did you see a day with volume more than the OS yet to signal this has happened?
What they will do is call shares off loan. Then sell into that short covering.
If you don’t know what is going on. I wrote about it in the very beginning.
