Canada cheching in, eh: there is a Canadian Computershare office; we similary want our GME TFSAs, LIRA, and RRSPs to be DRS! {These are similar to IRAs)
What if the notifications of registered shareholder percentage last quarter was a foot in the door towards addressing this? Information regarding registered shareholders has been disclosed, possibly to set a precedent, to address registered shareholders more frequently.
Please don't bite my head off I'm only a smooth brain but maybe there is a reason gamestop doesn't want IRA in computershare cuz this is a squeeze play and an IRA investment may prevent people from taking part in the squeeze? I dno just speculating cuz papa Cohen is all about customer service and shareholders. And if the power resides with them to allow this there may be a reason they aren't. Again I don't know jack shit about IRA or whatever it's called as I'm no American ape but it makes sense for me to think of it like that. Maybe post moass they will open it up. But that still prevents those who already bought that way to DRS so I dno, just my two cents on the topic.
Not gonna lie, this is the scariest part of this whole saga to me: why won't they do this? I wrote them several emails on this topic months ago and never heard back. I will write another tonight.
I read a reasonable explanation a hour ago about possible ideas in why GME is not interested in directly facilitating DRS IRA, I have not followed it up with my own research so take it for what it is.
THIS is the question apes need to ask themselves. Why won't they do it? They are an all star group, any true ape knows that. They must have a damn good reason why they won't do it and
My thoughts are simple on this. They need us to hold a little bit longer so they can complete their transformation. Once it’s complete they have no reason to not throw us this bone. That being said I believe this is closer to happening than we think. They’ve been working on this for over a year now an there’s something we aren’t seeing. My gut says this FTD cycle will be the last and I’m throwing all my cash at this discount when it drops below $100.
You are not alone. Most of my shares are in my IRA. Given this group is probably fairly young, it may only be a small % of us in this spot, but realize your average person with shares in IRAs probably have a LOT more shares than your average holder here. It's a LOT of shares, and the type of investors more likely to patiently hold.
I often wonder if Cohen doesnt make any moves such as this, or buying more shares etc.. The establishment would find a way to twist his moves in “manipulation of the stock.” I would want it to happen organically, with zero moves by gamestop until the float is locked.
Their IR team has to know about it, I emailed them in November and never got a reply and many others have reported the same. They must have a reason why they're not doing it and THAT perspective may help apes get to the truth.
It’s seems odd they haven’t done it, odder still they won’t reply when asked. To me that has only three possible explanations, and they all need deeper research.
Could retirement accounts be used as collateral or anything and "removing" that money/shares could tip the balance so Gamestop have been told not to? Probably not but just curious
If at some point in the near future it is announced by Computershare that they now provide IRA accounts for GME, it would be hard to argue that GameStop finally requesting it is just coincidence or for any other reason than a further means to help lock their float in DRS.
Why don’t Apes just request Gamestop to allow them to certify their shares again and pay for the paper certificates so they can hold them in their own hands?
Please Mister Ryan Cohen, do not forget about all the International apes if you ask ComputerShare to enable the DRS button for tax-advantaged investment accounts. I made a list (please add if I've missed anything!)...
I would DRS my IRA so hard and fast. 70% of my shares lay there. Also have a buddy were 80% of his are in IRA. Like 80p shares worth or so. I'm sure that's the case with many of us.
Would it be considered manipulation if RC did this? Kinda odd it's not already a thing since I have 3x as many shares locked in an IRA I'd gladly move out or fudelity.
If enabling people to DRS their own shares causes MOASS, then the system was fucked to begin with. Plus the short interest is only like 10% according to the data! The shorts said it themselves that they already covered and exited their positions 🤣
I wonder if it has anything to do with that law that prohibits companies from actively telling investors to drs. If they were to make this change now, possible legal implications? I don't know. All I know that all my ira shares have been xferred in kind to cash account taking tax hit, then all went to cs under MY NAME! I don't have to worry about ira fuckery anymore.
I wish there was a clearer line of communication for things like this, we're just kind of shouting into the ether and hoping it gets picked up. I know there's no 'we' but still, as shareholders if we just so happen to have a shared request of our beloved company, there should be a way to make our voices known.

Yes please! I will have about 40% for DRS and would like rest put over there under my retirement accounts
"Sorry" -can confirm is Canadiape
Yeah! Pls :(
We also want to be able to buy shares directly from Computershare !
Yes, please. Sorry and thank you.
Shareholder Proposal
You have to be an IRS approved non bank trustee. The IRS approves them, not GameStop. Try one of
AND RDSPs for the disabled
Time to write a suggestion to the board for a vote.
I second this
If you have 2k invested you can bring this up as an issue that must be addressed by the investor conference. I think, going off my lousy memory.

shareholder proposal
hijac for helpfulness
Yes; it doesn’t make any sense why GME is not allowing this…
Agreed! Who’s the articulate ape who can write the proposal?
hear hear!
I know I got lots of retirement account shares in fidelity that I would transfer
I am loaded too.
Needs a shareholder proposal.
This. Not many proposals, just one reaaaally well backed and detailed proposal. With a good lawyer.
Not gonna lie, this is the scariest part of this whole saga to me: why won't they do this? I wrote them several emails on this topic months ago and never heard back. I will write another tonight.

THIS is the question apes need to ask themselves. Why won't they do it? They are an all star group, any true ape knows that. They must have a damn good reason why they won't do it and
I also have xxxx locked up in an IRA. I’ve reached out to GME investor relations about this too. Haven’t received a reply.
Because you need to follow the correct process. Get a copy of the Board bylaws, and follow it to submit a vote for it.
My thoughts are simple on this. They need us to hold a little bit longer so they can complete their transformation. Once it’s complete they have no reason to not throw us this bone. That being said I believe this is closer to happening than we think. They’ve been working on this for over a year now an there’s something we aren’t seeing.

You’re not.
You're not alone
GameStop needs to start doing things to help their own investors
XXX shares locked up over here
I have mid range XXX and I'm in the same boat. Good thing it's ready for battle when given the green light... until then it waits.
Add me to that number club.
You are not alone. Most of my shares are in my IRA.

Maybe they want to wait for their NFT marketplace to be released first before they open those flood gates?
I'm one of the few apes that Ally let through to CS... but supposedly Ally will transfer them all back to themselves, out from CS, against my will...
They can’t make it seem like they helped us in any way otherwise Shitadel will sue and they will be tied up in court FOREVER.

Upvoting/commenting to increase visibility.
Yellow border guy’s back. Anyways, maybe RC is waiting for the right time to request CS to host retirement accounts.
Like a final blow? I'm in.
I often wonder if Cohen doesnt make any moves such as this, or buying more shares etc.. The establishment would find a way to twist his moves in “manipulation of the stock.” I would want it to happen organically, with zero moves by gamestop until the float is locked.
Yeah honestly I read this as another piece of confirmation bias for MOASS. GameStop knows what's on the line here and treading carefully.
It seems GameStop IR dept needs Dr. T and Wes Christian as advisors.
Probably.. or maybe stuff like that Tages ages and is not really that easy since the SEC ist waiting for them to make a mistake.
What if he isn't buying more shares because he thinks the stock is over valued?
LOUD VOICES
Get this UP
Hey RC look at this bro
I mean, he does have a Twitter.... if he is respectfully tagged over this multiple times, I do think he will look into it.
Their IR team has to know about it, I emailed them in November and never got a reply and many others have reported the same. They must have a reason why they're not doing it and THAT perspective may help apes get to the truth.
It’s seems odd they haven’t done it, odder still they won’t reply when asked. To me that has only three possible explanations, and they all need deeper research.
D. All of the above
Could retirement accounts be used as collateral or anything and "removing" that money/shares could tip the balance so Gamestop have been told not to? Probably not but just curious
I honestly wouldnt be surprised after this Ally/Apex UNO reversing of DRS bombshell!
Yup
Commenting for visibility so ryan cohen can see this on the top
proof link to this claim. we've already got one questionably debunked tonight
[удалено]
(little voice) can we request rc ventures to be our custodian?
There are no taxes or penalties on IRA distributions if you reopalc your withdrawal within 60 days.
I would like this addressed by the company, please!
I hope this finds its way to the top, great idea! 🦍👊🦍

Make it a shareholder proposal?
GameStop needs to start doing things to help investors this is long overdue
Up ya go.

Yes!!
What if this was the big announcement before anything with Loopring?...
If financial restructure is going to take place don’t you think they have their investors’ best interests ?
Or, if it's something the shareholders really want, they should do WORK and put in a shareholder proposal!
Everyone should email investor relations about this.
I don't think any of us should be telling RC what to do. We're all basically retarded here....
Visibiliting for comment
Upvote this shit u turds
Hello share holder proposal.
send to investor relations.
TO THE GOD DAMN TOP!
Commenting for visibility
Can we just email their investor relations? Or even the regular contact on their website. If many of us do it they'll listen
Just needs a shareholder proposal at the upcoming AGM and a passing vote. 🤔
Why don’t Apes just request Gamestop to allow them to certify their shares again and pay for the paper certificates so they can hold them in their own hands?
insert shareholder proposal info
Please Mister Ryan Cohen, do not forget about all the International apes if you ask ComputerShare to enable the DRS button for tax-advantaged investment accounts. I made a list (please add if I've missed anything!)...
Can we do 401ks while we're at it? Please?
Lets get some upvotes in this!
Could be typical that IRAs don’t have real shares, which would render them useless in securing float. This likely why RC not making custodian move.
You should DRS and stfu
This isn’t helping. People are trying to drs IRAs without hitting tax issues. That’s like me telling you to flair up and stfu.
TFSA and RRSP too please!!
This
Please address
I would be immediately drs'ing multiple xxx's of shares into a CS ira account if available
🎈🧵 up you go

Maybe GameStop doesn’t trust the American government enough to fuck with people’s retirement accounts.
I would DRS my IRA so hard and fast. 70% of my shares lay there. Also have a buddy were 80% of his are in IRA. Like 80p shares worth or so. I'm sure that's the case with many of us.
If they could host TFSA that would be great👍
I wrote to Gamestop investor relations directly requesting this and got no response.
Get some exposure!
Would it be considered manipulation if RC did this? Kinda odd it's not already a thing since I have 3x as many shares locked in an IRA I'd gladly move out or fudelity.
Has anyone checked if you can just set up a trust with yourself as trustee and be you own custodian?
This needs more visibility
RC! Can you see hear this!
Another vote for hoping they do it. So many IRA shares out there.
Because you would think he would love it
Retirement account would be an ideal place to put GME shares. Yes.
If major fuckery was pulled, people could lose their retirement fund, maybe he doesn't want that kind of thing on his conscience.
Get this trending
Thought that would be great
Just tell them to trigger moass, smh
They can make retirement accounts for employees of the company not investors.
This would make me transfer everything. a majority of my shares are in retirement accounts.
Would be real nice I’d make an adddie
I am gonna go out on a limb and say this isn’t as easy as double clicking the mouse or as simple as the wife’s boyfriend making her $CuM$…
I CANT HEAR YOUUUUUU?
Fuk em
Mods can be pin this to the top for additional visibility until ira DRS’ are allowed?
Probably won't do it because they don't want to be the direct cause for the MOASS. Legally they'd get fucked.
If enabling people to DRS their own shares causes MOASS, then the system was fucked to begin with. Plus the short interest is only like 10% according to the data! The shorts said it themselves that they already covered and exited their positions 🤣
A wise ape once said, this is the way.
This
Now that we have so many registered shares we should initiate a vote on that.
Let’s get this upvoted to where we’re going
It would be nice if we could transfer our RSUs there too...
Up!
YES YES PLEASE! I have many MANY shares in my IRA . I want registered. I am with Fidelity now.
Hi Ryan 👋
Let’s just be honest - until they do, GameStop isn’t representing the best interests of its shareholders.
Yes please xxx waiting
Yeah, I got XXX shares in my IRA and I want to DRS those moon tickets at CS bad.
While it would be nice to not pay taxes, does anyone really think they're not going to be retiring comfortably if they have to pay taxes?
Apes.
Bump
this is the checkmate move, Ryan!
Comment for visibility and traction
XXX holder would love to DRS Ryan!!!!
The time for this is not right yet.
You can buy bypass this - buy other stable stock transfer to CS - Sell and use the money to buy GME.
Why havnt they done this already?
Wish they would. I'd be able to lock up XXXX more bananas.
I wonder if it has anything to do with that law that prohibits companies from actively telling investors to drs. If they were to make this change now, possible legal implications? I don't know. All I know that all my ira shares have been xferred in kind to cash account taking tax hit, then all went to cs under MY NAME! I don't have to worry about ira fuckery anymore.
Love the idea of retiring on juicy GME dividends.
Tweeted them about this
It's a tell. They're switching platforms for the shares
I wish there was a clearer line of communication for things like this, we're just kind of shouting into the ether and hoping it gets picked up. I know there's no 'we' but still, as shareholders if we just so happen to have a shared request of our beloved company, there should be a way to make our voices known.
visidility comment
This would be legit
This would be amazing. Hopefully for Apes from other countries too.
If this would approved, that would speed up drs
Someone tweet it at the ceo already!
I'm from Ireland and the only IRA I have is trying to free us from British occupation
we are mooning baby in no time i am selling my second wife to buy more shares
Sounds like an email to investor relations to me…
Would upvote a repost of this all day long. Need IRA DRS.
Wait you guys look at the price?
This used to be
