DISCA
Discovery, Inc. Series A Common Stock
stock NASDAQ

So that's your DD? A CNBC article that says it's a meme stock and had a little over 20% short interest? While Gamestop had over 100%, BBBY had almost 70%, and AMCX had almost 60%? Hell, even Tootsie Roll had roughly double the reported SI% at ~45%.
And you are right. It wasn't just Melvin. Maplelane capital was one of the other big hedge funds that were short GME and having issues. And guess what? They too, were short AMCX and not AMC.
It's neat that you made money on AMC; I made money on CRM, does that mean it's part of the basket? Lol no.
I can show you even more if you actually want to take this seriously and learn. VIAC, DISCA and GSX techedu were all stocks that Archegos went hog wild on. Guess what they have a super strong correlation with; AMCX. And guess what? Melvin and Maplelane were both short GME, BBBY. AMCX, and GSX (now GOTU). And they were both on and off short VIAC (now PARA) and DISCA (now WBD).
It's not a coincidence that Archegos failed at the exact same time that AMCX and GME had large spikes in volume while AMC didn't. It's not a councidence that shady MSM figures started to "push" AMC. It's not a coincidence that the same funds most publicly short GME were also short BBBY and AMCX and had no position on AMC.
