Jim Cramer: Attention CEOs! Don't Be Like GameStop

CEOs of stocks that are heavily shorted should be ready to sell billions of dollars of stock right now.

Stocks quotes in this article: GME, AMC, BB, PLUG

Memo to all CEOs of stocks that are heavily shorted. Contact your investment banker NOW and be ready to sell billions of dollars of stock right now.

Don't be like GameStop (GME) which could basically become the richest retailer per sales on earth. That's now a scandal in its own right.

I would feel the same way if I were running AMC  (AMC) right now. But Adam Aron really hasn't had time to digest this move.

Blackberry (BB) has a lot of cash. Not sure there. But any overly shorted company should have a CEO who knows this stuff.

And then there is Plug Power (PLUG) . Andy Marsh, seasoned CEO. That's the one that's doing it right. Check out that brilliant offering, today, on top of his other in the 20s. He's going to have enough money to last until Green Hydrogen is economic at this point!

I wish I could go on but I have a pinched nerve that I am attending to - just alleviating the pressure but I wanted to get to the faithful!
