if the overwhelming majority of demand/buy orders is lower than present stock price
literally how does the stock market work
Yup - lower demand lowers the price.
The hedgies are playing a (very expensive) waiting game to try and salvage at least something from the wreck they made of their portfolios, so no demand right now. Once those high-interest loans and double-down short calls come due, they'll still have to pay up, because the price will still be way, way North of the ~$2-3 they originally shorted it for. They're just hoping it's not enough of a diff to end up bankrupt.
No conspiracy to be had, really... it's just the game playing out.
Squeeze them until they fail and until the institutions that bail them out fail.
Buy the dip and hodl.
Not financial advice, just a retard on the internet.
Unless there are counterfeit shares out there, then that would be quite a conspiracy (although not necessarily related to the OP)
They've already recovered a ton of their losses based on the movement the past 2 days.
Remember that they trade stocks/options thousands of times. They win either way except for the rare situation last week.
Not really, there are still 0 GME shares left that are available for a short sale. If they had actually recovered their losses, this number would be going up

Option trading is on fire. Gme is printing money on the way up and down.
Bingo. This is basic stuff and if you don't understand it, you should seek to educate yourself, not be asking questions on a political forum.
If more shares are being bought than sold you would think in that sellers market price would go up is all I think OP is trying to say.
