1/29 - There will be more people who bought at $80 or $100 and who are going to be left with losses when the stock settles.

1/30 - This bubble might last longer than I suspect...maybe it’ll last into mid February. I do know the price of the stock is a bubble that is temporary... It won’t last. If you bought over $100 you are SOL and should dump it now before you lose more.

2/4/21 - floating around $100, There will be no further ‘bumps’.

2/26 - The current bump to over $100 is a temporary blip. Not sustainable.

I’m scolding no one. I am stating facts.

Hey Jim, what's the Gamestop share price?

It fell as predicted... lots of people who bought in late lost money.

Now it’s being kept artificially high by people like yourself.
When the leaders of WallStreetBets decide to cash in it’ll drop quick.

$191.45 USD/Share is the correct answer...WSB has no leaders, just a group of people sharing ideas. But after 3 months since it took off, still around $200 above your 'blip' marker of $100 maybe it's time to re-examine your methodology. Only you would argue that buying and holding a stock is ' artificial manipulation'... That's how the market and investment is meant to work, you buy stocks you like and stick with them long term.

Long term is long term, its a defined term with tax repercussions. I said long term, I mean long term... Long after your boomer corpse is rotting, I'll be holding on to GME and banging your widow.

I did the life expectancy thing and it said I have another 37years. So you’ll be waiting awhile to get your dick wet.
Since you’re obviously a virgin then that’s probably NBD for you.

As for the stock... you may still be holding it, but GME won’t exist by then...though if it is the valuation could be $200.
Factoring inflation that’ll be about $20 in today’s money.

And I should trust you because... you've been wrong about everything GME related so far?

Going bankrupt (which they were on the verge of because of being shorted more than any stock in history) = No more jobs. (which tends to be bad for employees)

I would say it's like I'm debating a child... but it's much more like I'm debating an out of touch boomer.

I think Jim is just directing his anger towards you because he cashed out his GameStop stock at the wrong time and lost a ton of money.

Hey, I would be too if I were an out of touch Boomer who lost all of his life savings on GME.

Jump in late and comment on something you know nothing about.

Typical.

Neither of your statements re accurate.

I was being 100% cheeky with my post. But after your tepid response, you have me rethinking whether or not I was just being silly or if I was actually accurate...

I hope Boston is ok, his wife's hedgie friends really took it in the butthole this week. GME back over $200, AMC over $20... His wife might have to pimp him out just to make her mortgage payment.

[riskllama]

[mookiemcgee]

Some of you might be asking, what's happened with GME over the last 4-5 months...

Did the stock crash back down to levels of $4-5 which it was last year? Staying over $100 was clear 'an unsustainable blip' right?


Here's some updated information:
Ken Griffin (of Shitadel, a 'market maker' and friend of Jimboston's wife) lied under oath to congress back in spring about his firms communication with Robinhood during the first days of short squeeze in Jan when Robinhood removed investors ability to buy the stock (they could only sell). A clear manipulation of supply/demand, compounded with lying about it under oath its not looking good for Kenny G.

'Naked Shorting' a long held but secretive practice of hedge funds of borrowing more shares than actually exist (in order to force prices down), has failed to force GME back down to 2020 levels. Long considered a 'conspiracy theory', this practice has been mathematically proven to have been happening for the last 10-20 years by hedge funds to manipulate prices in spite of their denials. It's also technically legal under US law.

GME investors have resorted to 'direct registering' their shares through services like Computershare to prevent their brokers from loaning our their shares to be shorted by hedge funds, pushing GME towards another 'tipping point' and removing the ability of hedgies to short those shares.

Price of GME today $175/share, seeing a 'sustained blip' above $100 share for the bulk of 2021 with no signs of relenting.

1) I think you owe me an apology for suggesting.
a) my wife is a friend or even knows this guy.
b) the implied “guilt by association” intended in your supposed link.

I thought you were better than that.

2) I admit I was wrong in my analysis, incorrectly believing the market would rapidly reset this stock, and not factoring in the rabid “cult of personality” this company’s stock has developed among a large segment of “shoot from the hip” investors.

The company fundamentals don’t justify the market valuation. The stock will drop… but the ride is apparently lasting much longer than most sane investors.

Go back and hibernate in your hole for another 6 months BOOMER, maybe when you wake up you can try reading about what is actually going on, rather than hiding behind a simple analysis of an earnings call.

You've been proven wrong on this time and time again, so you admitting now that you were wrong is utterly meaningless to anyone but yourself....but they do say admitting to yourself you have a problem is the first step.

That doesn’t sound like an apology.

Why so angry?

Clinton loved Mickey D's. Is that considered addictive?

The arches are 100% addictive. I know I should never go there yet here we are, I get the occasional Big Mac. In fact it makes me angry and I am disappointed in myself, because in my city they are not even cheap.

Their breakfast is good for early morning road trips, I'll give you that. After 10AM, it is pure desperation only that will make me eat there.

It's not even secret that they have labs working on making the food taste certain ways.

I read an article about micro engineering. Who knows what that does to us.

Funny, I had quit going for several years and ended up going back for monopoly. Turns out it was rigged to limit winners.

duh.... what are you, 5? do you think macdonalds would make the monopoly game in a way that could make them go bankrupt? do you think loteries casinos and bookmakers are not guaranteed to win at the end of the day?

US big macs are the worse big macs on the planet, or anything in US macdonalds. I was quite surprised to see how trash they are in the US compared to other fast foods. Like BK is pretty much the same taste in europe or in the US. What's going on with US macdonalds? are canadian macdonalds like US ones?

regarding macdonalds monopoly... I never liked to go there for those monopoly board tickets, what I always liked is that you could get a free burger or a free frie or something very often. The rest, I never gave myself the slightest chance.
And yes, I know there was a documentary about the cheating with the million bucks tickets and all... but that's just not the game that's rigged... it's the people putting the game in place that corrupted it by cheating.

Depending on location they can be as bad or worse. They are better maintained in Canada, the roof won't be leaking. Sometime a few items are very slightly better on the Canadian menu but they are very close to the same thing.

Even my wife will eat a bite of Big Mac in France. Here she gets annoyed when me or our son get one.

I was getting McNuggets for a while last year. They are some odd gelatinous mass. It's like there is barely any chicken in them. Burger King is similar which sucks because when they introduced chicken tenders in the late 1980s they were excellent.

At Wendy's and Carl's Jr you can tell they use actual chicken meat.

What do you think "rigged" means?

I only ask because this is basically a perfect discription of rigged.

... people putting the game in place that corrupted it by cheating.

Am I spelling it wrong and you think rigged is a different word?

yeah you're right but... what I meant is that macdonald's, the instigator of the game didn't create it rigged, and created it with the intention of making a fair competition. People hired by them to put it in place rigged it. In one of your early messages it kind of felt like you meant the game was rigged by essence.

It;s the difference between the technical dictionary definition of the word “rigged” and the implied definition as used colloquially.

The odds are abysmal, ten prizes out of millions of stickers. There was no need to mess with it, it would definately be profitable for the corporation..


But someone still did.

Either way, You'd be far better off investing all you money immediately in Gamestop and then selling on Friday @$990/share. lots of girlfriends and unlimited MickyD's tendies for life no monopoly needed.

They say McDonalds sales go up about 5% when Monopoly is running... the 'game' and it's prized could cost them $50 million and it would still be a profitable venture.

So are you swimming in McNuggets and fat chicks yet?

Because there's rumors...

Since you’re obviously a virgin then that’s probably NBD for you.

I have a monopoly board going.

They also have a pretty good peppermint hot chocolate right now, but I got gypped by the moron trying to work the computerized till yesterday, she entered smalls instead of mediums there are no stickers on the small cups.

[mookiemcgee]

So are you swimming in McNuggets and fat chicks yet?

Because there's rumors...

GME price closed this Friday at $213.25, and there is a fresh batch of rumors that with so many investors direct registering shares another big pump may be incoming... That said the options plays for GME have been overpriced since spring. You are much better off buying calls for RIOT, or shorting/selling calls on Pelaton

I'm in Canada. I believe the costs of trading stocks in your country kills it as a hobby for me. They tax us foreign Devils pretty high. Then Truedough takes a tithe.

I'm sure there's ways around it but I'm too simple.

I was not aware there was any difference in tax for Canadians buying US stocks. There is no difference in the US if I buy Canadian stocks as long as they are 'available' to trade. I think gamestop on TSX is GME-N or something

[2dimes]

Things may have changed, I'm going on older info. I was quite strongly warned off just after the turn of the century.

OK boomer.

In addition to it being out of date I have a rather elementary understanding of what I was told. Also the guys telling me about trading had recently at the time lost money, nearly everyone did, so it might not even apply to something like the GME example.

The taxes are basically the same but there was a small additional one. No big deal if it was just that. It sounded like the bigger difference was, because we don't live there we had almost no write offs.

The accounting could get pretty daunting and you need to be extremely careful to avoid owing due to a mistake, which could lead to really bad times. I was warned you absolutely needed to hire an accountant that is both, honest and extremely knowledgable in all the IRS rules. You need to pay that person even if you don't make any money at all and we couldn't write that off either or any losses.

I was lead to believe all the little differences could add up quick, sometimes it would turn into an unexpected really big difference. I was also told the costs would almost be certain to eat up more than any small returns, a low baller such as myself might have been making on occasion.
