The ticker will change automaticallySo, what happens to IPOE stock when this merger happens with SOFI?
Does it just automagically turn into SOFI stock or is there something I need to do?
There is no squeeze anymore. It’s just so much discussion and convincing people to buy. That’s it now. I think it was Oz that posted that both AMC and GME had 20% and under short positions which isn’t a lot considering how overvalued the stocks are on a “real” basis.Melvin supposedly closed out of their GME short position in Q1.

I don’t think so. I think it’s like cryptos recent volatility. People want to invent some reason, whales buying and shorts squeezed, because it happened once but I think this is just pure you’ve got a lot of people interested in buying (or selling) because they believe every tweet. I mean it’s insane how a car company CEO and Snoop Dogg can drive markets with tweets. It’s really a funky time to be investing. It feels like you’ve gone from the best companies driving stock news to memes and tweets. Amazon and Apple crush, yawn. Hertz going bankrupt, pile in baby. SPAC sucky rap, all in #####es. Ryan Cohen tweets a duck pooping on a frog, woo hoo, moonshot! Elon Musk tweets he loves Doge, makes fun of Doge, Tesla loves Bitcoin, Tesla hates Bitcoin...So there is no moon shot?
I bet his coke dealer is richer than god.When Cramer says 'That's all I got to say' it's a huge lie.

It’s amazing but honestly not surprising considering the attention span of all the stimulated folks flush with investable cash. There will be some fun stories in 5 years. Some will be about how cheap some purchases were and some will be wondering why people still own shares of some companies, but it’s going to be a bunch of Harvard Business School case studies.
All due respect to DD but have to agree with this.There is no squeeze anymore. It’s just so much discussion and convincing people to buy. That’s it now. I think it was Oz that posted that both AMC and GME had 20% and under short positions which isn’t a lot considering how overvalued the stocks are on a “real” basis.
And then the price will drop.The ticker will change automatically
I'm holding until 6/9 when the votes are tallied. There's just too much out research from the guys at reddit that makes sense, especially after the hedge funds and Robinhood conspired to drive the price down.There is no squeeze anymore.

Lambos or Homeless for me.I'm holding until 6/9 when the votes are tallied. There's just too much out research from the guys at reddit that makes sense, especially after the hedge funds and Robinhood conspired to drive the price down.
The tweets from Cohen and now GME official Twitter are too coincidental to just ignore. What other company starts voting on 4/20 for a 6/9 board meeting?
Cohen is either playing the crowd as pawns or really signaling that something good can happen for the holders. However, if I was taking over a video game store. I wouldn't want to alienate my consumer base.
Do I think GME is worthless without the "squeeze"? Yes. Do I know for certain the squeeze will happen...again? No. However, I think there's a 50% chance of it happening and if it does squeeze like predicted than pot odds say I gotta stay in it.
I agree that one of these two things is probably happening.Cohen is either playing the crowd as pawns or really signaling that something good can happen for the holders.
And which one is in the best interest of the company/ticker?I agree that one of these two things is probably happening.
Really the only way to go through lifeLambos or Homeless for me.
That’s a great question. GME isn’t a solid investment fundamentally and their last earnings wasn’t good and didn’t have any wow factor for the future. Is it in the best interest for the stock to do badly as they are trying to turn it around or is it better for it to crash now and then have the ability to go up while they turn it around.And which one is in the best interest of the company/ticker?
I'd like to think Cohen is smarter than stringing his consumer base along for short term capital infusion.
Did East coast sell everything while at lunch ? The tides have turnedWhy would you ever write this
I’m no expert at all, but in this case HAAC is $10.01 today. The warrants have a date in the future like options, so aren’t you paying $1.63 for the right to buy HAAC at $11.50 in 2025 or whenever the hell they expire?Is there a "normal"/expected relationship between Warrants and Commons?
There seems to me to be an arbitrage opportunity between IPOE and IPOEWS. Maybe I've been thinking about them wrong this whole time. Or maybe there's a typical shift in relationship closer to merger that I've missed?
It has seemed typical to me for most of the SPAC warrants to trade at a premium to commons when combined with the exercise price
I'd call those "normal" relative to what I've observed the past year.
- HAACW = $1.63 + $11.50 exercise = $13.13 >>>> HAAC $10.01.
- STICWS = $2.25 + $11.50 exercise = $13.75 >>>>> STIC $9.96).
IPOEWS currently $5.73 +$11.50 = $17.23 <<<<<IPOE $18.27
Wait, I say something positive and now I shouldn’t?Why would you ever write this
Mostly accurate statement, yes. But the price of those Warrants is added to the $11.50 to determine your basis in the Common when you exercise. And they're not really dated, other than the expiration. I believe you can convert any time post-merger.I’m no expert at all, but in this case HAAC is $10.01 today.

It's a Schleprock playWait, I say something positive and now I shouldn’t?
The warrants and commons will eventually adjust to the $11.50 difference once the warrants are redeemable, either via the commons coming down in price relative to warrants, warrants going up, or some combination of both.Is there a "normal"/expected relationship between Warrants and Commons?

Looks like the short positions have to be the main bulk of the gains, which makes sense. I looked at the top holdings and some have done well but nothing close to the gain YTD. Since the market peaked in February the short game absolutely would have helped.I know mutual funds aren't the talk much in here, but I just started a small position in Invenomic Fund Investor Class shares (BRVIX).
Up 60% plus so far YTD.
Seems to be doing the right things in this volatile market.
Yeah, sorry for the typo.Looks like the short positions have to be the main bulk of the gains, which makes sense. I looked at the top holdings and some have done well but nothing close to the gain YTD. Since the market peaked in February the short game absolutely would have helped.
Also, assuming it’s BIVRX you are talking about.
The warrants have a time component to them. Both when they start and end being redeemable. As FreeBagel said, eventually they should converge. DNMR warrants were once off about $10 from where they should have been. Of course, both the warrant and the underlying are down big from peak...but they're now trading much more closely to the real value since I believe redemptions start next week.Is there a "normal"/expected relationship between Warrants and Commons?

I hear there are interesting opportunities in Oat MilkI have 2k to throw at something highly speculative. I have enough AMC/GME. Anyone want to pitch something fun?
It's absolutely frothy.I hear there are interesting opportunities in Oat Milk
MUDS or MUDSU. If you think NFTs have a bright future, that is.I have 2k to throw at something highly speculative. I have enough AMC/GME. Anyone want to pitch something fun?
I already have lots of SPACs, including MUDS.MUDS or MUDSU. If you think NFTs have a bright future, that is.
Not sure if it's fun, but I've been scaling into OPEN. Beaten down, has Chamath stink all over it. Still might go below 10 yet but is looking to have rev in the $8-$10 B range next year and creep toward profitability. Sitting at $8B now and I'm looking for a double in 6-12 months on a sentiment reversal. Also seems like at worst a neutral play if not better suited for inflationary environment IF those fears pan out.I have 2k to throw at something highly speculative. I have enough AMC/GME.

I waited too long, stupid work. Bought in the low $212
I wish I had biggerSE always get pummelled early after earning and then bounces big once people realize how much ### they are kicking.
My financial advisor said I had too much when I wanted to add in the low 200's. Might have to fire that guy. But I do have a lot, so probably the right call.I wish I had bigger's :(
~15% gain in less than 2 days in a company I like![]()
