gay bear
WSB insult for anyone shorting or betting on a stock falling.
Definitions
WSB's standard-issue jeer for a 'bear' — someone betting against a stock the sub is long. The 'gay' part is meaningless as actual sexuality reference — it's deployed as generic edgelord intensifier, in the same way 'retard' gets thrown around. Used to dismiss any bearish DD or short thesis, usually with an accompanying SpongeBob meme.
