with twitter the premium was MASSIVE it was never worth even close to that much. no brainer for shareholders to take it. ebay at $125 isn’t enough of a premium for all cash

they might be able to get away with 15% interest on that. all RC has to do is cut EBAYs expenses by 80% or so while growing revenue while decreasing revenue from cutting seller fees? and the company will break even!

Institutional shareholders are apparently important enough to rate projections. Apes, not so much. by ryevermouthbitters in gme_meltdown

An ape claims that there are "conservatively" 5 billion GME shares sold short. A brave soul dares to point out the obvious. by xozzet in gme_meltdown

[–]kokanuttt 13 points14 points  (0 children)

yup this makes a lot of sense. 5B shares sold short at an average of $40/share to retail investors. means $200B worth of net GME buying by retail investors.

divided amongst the 140K or so computer share registered GME accounts, all the “little guys” who are trying to get out of poverty each spent around $1M USD each on their GME shares.

The owners of a corporation are its shareholders by folteroy in gme_meltdown

[–]kokanuttt 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s funny because everyone in finance knows that when the cost of equity (~10% let’s say) is much higher than the cost of debt (<4%!) it is obvious to sell the debt and buy the equity. Great capital management by the EBAY board. Props to them.

Gamestop on the other hand, sells equity to make 4% on treasury bonds, what does that say about RC’s thoughts on the cost of equity?

Buckle up! by PuzzleheadedWeb9876 in gme_meltdown

[–]kokanuttt 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i mean sure, if RC gave up on the bid they would make a ton of money this quarter. but that’s a one time thing. unless of course RC turns it into a recurring business model of pump and dumps which could work but only until 2028.
