Question for Fintwit "quants": Can you come up with an unsupervised algo, a Bayesian scheme, or a recommendation algo whose output would be a list of targetable stocks by WSB based on WSB posts (Reddit's API). In a Bayesian setting, for instance, a prior could be "short float".

anyway, you asked for the model not the prediction.
My point is that absolutely nothing in any of those posts gives any idea that silver would be a pump target. The only way you could figure that out was by reading r/wsb *which is exactly what I said in my first comment in this thread*

This entire conversation is an incredible example of hindsight bias on your part.

you're misunderstanding my point, i'm trying to propose a framework for understanding meme propagation not suggesting that
@nope_its_lily 's model (which doesn't really exist yet) predicted silver. but you can see that the thought process is an extension of the GME trade - Show replies

well first of all the premise of the SLV position is directly related to the GME one. ( interestingly ... this article has just been removed by moderators) https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/l68ill/the_biggest_short_squeeze_in_the_world_slv_silver/ …

You are literally making my point for me by linking to a wsb post that was made *before* the idea of pumping silver took hold (this was literally the post that made me aware that SLV was a pump target). I though the idea was to predict the targets *ahead* of appearing on wsb?
