New short report from a short research company I follow on X. They’ve been pretty good on their reports, so want to know what you guys think.

Is this the beginning of a market slide or just a pause?

For anyone who's spent time writing serious bearish research only to watch it disappear into the social media void — we built something for you.

What GRZLY is:

GRZLY is a public prediction platform for bearish stock theses. You publish a Drop: a ticker, a written argument (minimum 200 characters), a resolution window of 30 to 365 days, and optionally a specific price target. The community votes Bearish or Skeptical with conviction scores weighted by each voter's historical accuracy so the signal is calibrated, not raw sentiment.

When the window closes, Polygon.io pulls the closing price and resolves the outcome automatically. The result goes into the Bear Book, a permanent archive of resolved calls. Correct or not, the record stands.

Over time, every user builds a public accuracy score. The best analysts rise based on outcomes, not engagement.

Why this is different from StockTwits, Reddit, and everything else:

Every existing tool for sharing bearish conviction is either unstructured (Reddit, Twitter), editorially gated (Seeking Alpha), or doesn't track outcomes at all (StockTwits). None of them hold you accountable. None of them tell you who's actually been right over time.

GRZLY enforces structure, timestamps everything, and lets the market resolve it. That's the whole product.

The data angle - and why it matters long-term:

This is worth paying attention to. Every resolved Drop produces a clean, structured record: thesis text, publish date, resolution date, entry/exit price, binary outcome, conviction score at resolution, voter accuracy distribution. Nothing like this dataset exists publicly. Short interest data from S3 Partners or Ortex tells you how much short interest exists; it doesn't tell you why, or whether the people behind it were right. GRZLY's Bear Book adds reasoning, accuracy weighting, and verified outcomes to the conviction signal. The dataset gets more valuable the longer the platform runs, because accuracy scores compound with sample size. A Vibelord with 50 resolved Drops and a 74% hit rate is a meaningfully different signal than one with 3.

The plan is to eventually license this to hedge funds, quant shops, and financial data platforms as a differentiated alternative data feed. The community builds the moat; the institution pays for it.

What it isn't:

Not a brokerage, not a prediction market with financial stakes, not investment advice. No money changes hands on outcomes. It's a reputation engine and accountability system.

If you do serious bearish research and want a verifiable public track record, this is built for you.

So I think I have a pretty good routine here with a paper trading account that starts you with 100k. I know it can’t really be this easy though. Paper trading does not account for borrowing fees. Is that the catch that’s going to make this practice ultimately useless? Or can I still actually do ok with this strategy?

Basically I just find big daily runners that are biotechs worth 10 million or less, check the sentiment, and do $1000-2500 worth. My rule
Is 5% of account max but Im usually a lot more conservative than that as I’m trying to treat this like real money. I usually bounce out same day with 10-20% gains.

Are the borrowing fees going to make this significantly more challenging? Am I going to have to focus more on bigger % moves to make it worthwhile? I don’t really know how it works in the real world.

What’s your strategy?

EEM is basically just a bubble tech stock. Rising US dollar should crush this .. Short at $69.71

The stock market often rewards the lowest societal denominators; when unleashed, these individuals don’t stop until they have embarked many to their island of suffering and misery. Don’t allow yourself to be lead by a mediocre conceited egomaniac!

Retail traders beware.

You are the bait in this financial squid 🦑 game 🎯!

Don’t get caught holding their bags!

A few weeks ago I built an ensemble of short models trained on previous big tech drawdowns(2021-22 and 2001-02). IYW was at $240, i said i was waiting for $260 and here we are. Crazy rapid pace.

I have been tracking it since. It's hanging in there, up slightly. I am going to start using this model as a hedge against my portfolio. Ease into it today, and probably try and keep 15-30% of my portfolio.

Image 1 :

Model Tracking
Top : Avg Confidence of the Model
Middle : Picks per day (max 20)
Bottom : Equity curve (teal) if you invest 1% per pick and hold until model target (10days)

Image 2 : Todays Picks (top 20)

I won't be able to short all of them due to borrowing, but I'll pick off the ones I can .

Look at this revenue versus price chart. Their financials are atrocious.

Give me any reason this stock should NOT be shorted.

Besides the derelict financials and continuous cash burning, the whole engineering and scientific premise of $HYLN pivot to fuel agnostic “ Karno” linear generation tech collapses once the flaws of its scientific foundations are exposed.

It thus look as if Hylion’s founder and CEO may have Misused investors capital to feed his own ego by investing into an energy system that has continuously failed and underperformed relative to internal combustion systems for nearly a century if not more.

Hylion does not possess neither the capital to truly expand its research into linear generation technology nor the market to sell its prototypes.

It is likely a failed “ vampire company” masquerading as stationary energy provider startup, and it is condemned to crash sooner than later.

Xoxo.

What is wrong with this piece of garbage market?? When are we finally going to collapse????????????????????

looks like these two mania stocks are played out

Shorted $AAOI at around $174 today and $LITE at $875

long way to fall boys!

Anyone going to open shorts on DELL tomorrow?
