I asked for AMC to run before GME a few pages back... and well.. HOLY SHNIKES BATMAN - I have trimmed position and taken profits on AMC so I am free riding it right now. Where do we think the realistic top of AMC is? 250? 300? 

@David Dodds  a while ago you thought GME would go to 800 - 1000 - still feel that way or you think 1500 is not out of the question?

I think GME tops 1,000. It might fly way past that. IMO, It has the most potential in that only 70 million shares are suppose to exist and they have been busy turning around a failing franchise. GME's annual meeting is 6/9 and we should get a vote count then to get an idea to the number of synthetic shares.

Opened a trading position in FUBO. Either going to work out wonderfully or get my face blown off, I think.

At least it’s coming back for me. It’s one of some stocks I bought before they dove. Some have already come back and FUBO and SKLZ having good days.

Yeah, crazy. I’m not risk averse but the prospect of losing way more than you invested is a reason why I’d never short. I’d rather hunt for a good stock.

The funny part is that the short squeeze is small potatoes. 600 million shares of AMC have traded today. Probably 800 by the end of the day. Well, there’s only about 80-90 million shares short, if that since you’d think more people covered than opened the last few days. There is no shortage of shares at all. It’s just pure volume. Buyers willing to buy at any market price. I mean the market cap is ludicrous. It’s worth 10x what it was pre-pandemic at its peak cash flow and revenue. Those revenue days might be gone and the debt is way higher now but it’s worth 10x what it was. It’s truly a grown up, real money game of hot potato. It’s fun to watch but it’s not close to over.

You know nothing. SYNTHETICS!!

Reactions: JAA
Maybe it’s just me but any stock I own or track that seems like it could be a short target is jumping today, not quite AMC but still nice. I wonder if people are just bailing on their short positions realizing they don’t want to risk it right now.

I mentioned the short interest in $GDRX a while back and it’s been going up in chunks for me for a week. Hopefully $DMTK starts seeing some of this. $FLGT, too.

No need for synthetics LOL when the company quadruples the share count in the past year. That’s why AMC is so different than GME’s run up. I don’t believe in either company but there really is no short squeeze net for people going long on AMC. With 500M shares outstanding and likely a #### ton more as AMC tries to survive their debt mountain, there is no share shortage to cover. When AMC drops, it’ll drop hard.

Not just you. Sofi, DNMR, FUBO, and BYND all having strong days. LMND, APPN, and FLGT too. All of these names have some manner of large short interest and many squeezed a bit in Dec/Jan

Yeah, that's a real kick to the ween....I sell the stocks that have killed it and am long 20K shares of this stupid thing.  But yeah, I am viewing this as a lottery ticket and think we're close to getting some sort of an announcement that catapults this stock higher.  The product is great and management is top shelf, but as the old saying goes "SHOW ME THE MONEY!" 

In full disclosure, this is a huge position for our firm and the two PMs bird-dogging this thing have diamond hands here and while it's not so bad losing your own money, losing OTHER people's money is teh absolute suck and we're not paid to do that, so......better be right here or we'll start getting redemption notices from partners looking around the landscape and asking themselves "what am doing with these clowns when I can just follow Reddit stonks and blast to the moon?".  

I will absolutely stay transparent on this name - if I sell or if we sell, I'll make sure this thread is updated accordingly.

Buffett also doesn't invest in companies he doesn't understand and I'll be the first to admit I don't get the allure to GME or AMC and for those reasons (and reasons that included losing my initial investment so fair assessment to call me impatient) I closed out the positions.  Hope the rest of you make a killing!!!!

I have 4900 shares and about 21% in the red.

Willing to hang longer,

Truly appreciate your insight.

 
Wonder how much juice is left to squeeze out of my very profitable XLE trade. Anyone else in some of the bigger energy names have an opinion?

I should have bought far OTM calls when I first went short.  There are probably still smart moves that I could and should make.  I figure if I do nothing, my account can survive until about $200-$250.  If I go down, well at least I went out fighting..for the hedge funds?..wait a second

 
wow- hope that is true what @Steeler figured out about @GROOT but 12k shares @ 4.88 is 58,560

12k shares x 70 share is a mere 840k  - ie - a medium sized FBG return 6 mos later................ 

per CNBC - 200M in options betting AMC hitts 81 by end of week ( 73 strike price + $8 to buy it) 

 
Tech on a roll.  I'm thinking hard about trimming.  Have to imagine the pending AMC crash will crush the market like the GME plummet did.

Is it guaranteed AMC will crash?  The crypto market is over 1 trillion.  GME is being supported at a market cap of 10-20 billion.  AMC is currently at 28 billion.  I'm sure there will be volatility ahead but maybe AMC will find support at a market cap of 10-30 billion.  After all, crypto trades for over 1 trillion and what utility do any of those coins actually have?

Now you're starting to think like an ape. 

 
Hey fellas, long time no talk.

I'm starting a business which has dominated my time.  Still trading...below are my non-retirement holdings.

ABNB

IPOE/SOFI call options  :moneybag:

MAR call Options :sadbanana:

SI

ETH :moneybag:

BTC :moneybag:

I'm pretty heavy cash/crypto right now.  I plan on making a rotation into equities eventually, just not sure when or what...I don't see a ton of value out there.

P.S.  in one of my retirement accounts I had an epic 700% run on etherium classic...damn near timed it perfect.   Best part is that I can't get taxed on it.

AMC right back at it again in pre-market this a.m.

I keep waiting for a good spot to short this donk of a stonk ... But those danm apes ... Are their pockets bottomless?

Now I'm thinking, what the hell, I might as well join them. Where else am I going to make 20% in one day?

$GLBE looks interesting. Under the radar IPO last week, didn’t crater or moonshot but has been strong overall. They facilitate cross-border e-commerce, backed by Shopify and just partnered with Facebook.

Has actual earnings, growing like crazy. Israeli and founder-led. I’m starting a small position and will watch it for a quarter or so and see its first earnings before deciding to add more.

Added a wee bit more $GLBE. Still want to see an earnings report. I found that MF did an Industry Focus on it before the IPO this past weekend and listened to it, which made me want to own just a little more than I initially bought. But now I'm definitely waiting before I add again. Probably.

$GLBE reported this morning:

Gross Merchandise Volume +133% YOY

Revenue +134%YOY
-Service fees revenue +146%YOY
-Fulfilment revenue +128%YOY

Gross Margin: 29.4% -> 33.3%

Adjusted EBITDA $5.2million (vs. a small loss in Q1’20)

Fiscal Year Revenue Guidance +53-56% YOY

I’ll be adding. Looks like growth might take it on the chin today so I’ll wait and see if it pulls back with everything else. Hasn’t gone parabolic but it has gone from $25 or so to $35 since its IPO. Right now it’s basically even premarket but it’s a small cap.
