In an SEC filing, AMC disclosed it issued approximately 72.5 million new shares during Monday's rally, raising some $250 million for the company.\nOther heavily shorted stocks which fell Wednesday included SunPower (SPWR) Beyond Meat (BYND) and the Children's Place (PLCE).\nGameStop shares surged Monday after the reemergence of Keith Gill, also known as \"Roaring Kitty,\" whose bull case on GameStop ignited the meme stock rally back in 2021.\nIn a note to clients, Nicholas Colas, co-founder at DataTrek Research, wrote this recent trading action \"feels like an echo of early 2021, when this account helped fuel a vicious short squeeze in GameStop.\"\nColas noted that the move back in 2021 was quite a bit larger than what we've seen so far this time around, with GameStop stock rising 1,500% in January 2021 before forfeiting most of those gains.\nThe pain short sellers endured during the original meme stock rally three years ago hasn't deterred bets against these companies, however.\n\n\n\n  Keith Gill, known in social media forums as Roaring Kitty, testifies during a virtual hearing on GameStop in Washington, Feb. 18, 2021. The man at the center of the meme stock craze during the pandemic returned to the social platform X for the first time in three years on Sunday. (House Financial Services Committee via AP, File)\n \n\n  ASSOCIATED PRESS\n \n\nShort interest in GameStop has remained elevated since that meme rally, data from S3 Partners showed, with almost 24% of the float.\nGameStop shorts were down $1.36 billion on Tuesday after losing almost $900 million on Monday.\n\"We are seeing continued squeeze related short covering due to the rebirth of the meme trade,\" said Ihor Dusaniwsky, managing director of S3 Partners.\nIn Colas's view, a trader shorting a stock rallying with this kind of aggression is left with only one option: \"Your only choice is to close out the position regardless of the price.\"\n\"In the case of GME, you are also afraid that retail traders will be enticed into a replay of 2021,\" Colas added.\n\n\n\n  GameStop stock tumbled on Wednesday, indicating the rally in meme names is fading. (AP Photo/John Minchillo, File)\n \n\n  ASSOCIATED PRESS\n \n\nThe meme frenzy three years ago garnered national attention, attracting an army of retail traders during the pandemic lockdowns.\n\"I don't look at this at all like I did in 2021 when it was almost a transformational moment, dragging, you know, tens of millions of people back into the marketplace,\" said Tom Sosnoff, CEO of tastylive, an options and futures trading platform.\nOn Tuesday, YouTuber Matt Kohrs, who has held positions in GameStop and AMC in the past, said the pivotal aspect of “the little guy versus the big guy” during the short squeezes of 2021 holds true today. \n“The perception is that the entire system is set up and insulated to benefit the powerful elite. GME is the symbol of the populist movement against that concept,” said Kohrs.\n“The only true change I see from a psychology standpoint is not being locked inside anymore,” he added.\nInes Ferre is a senior business reporter for Yahoo Finance.
