Good Morning! This is Mother Squeezer, the newsletter that gets excited with you by bringing you clever life hacks, updates and insights, along with timely information about our favorite Activist Investor, Ryan Cohen, and our favorite stocks - GME and BBBY.

Welcome back and thank you for having us. We're still on the road today but head back home tomorrow. We're looking forward to getting back home, but not too excited about flying these days.

At least we're scheduled to fly out on a new Boeing 747-8. The technology improvements does make it a little nicer to fly. The interior is sleek and a little more spacious. Externally, it is constructed from newly painted light weight aircraft grade aluminum. However, this got us thinking - will invisible airplanes ever be a thing?

We just can’t see them taking off. /joke

Traveling has gotten more comfortable. Sure, the hassle with TSA, the oversold flights and the limited food options could all be improved, but all in all, things have come a long way in a relatively short time. To make things even more comfortable when you forget your travel pillow, we bring you today's clever life hack:

Create an instant travel pillow by using your belt combined with your headrest

Is your iPhone making you fall asleep? There's a nap for that.

Did you know?

The windshield or window frame of a Boeing 747-400’s cockpit costs as much as many new cars coming in at approximately $40,000.

FTD Update

Last week we told you about the upcoming failure(s) to deliver (FTDs) that need to be covered or closed this week for BBBY.

As a reminder:

• Failure to deliver (FTD) refers to not being able to meet one's trading obligations

• In the case of buyers, it means not having the cash; in the case of sellers, it means not having the goods.

• Failure to deliver can occur in derivatives contracts or when selling short naked.

Over the course of the week, the number of FTDs that need to be taken care of will rise:

We saw an increase in price on Friday which could have been a result of some FTDs being taken care of. If this continues, we could be in for a string of green days.

Let's see what the week brings!
