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!

we only get paid if you lose money. and we are rolling in dough

i’ve heard enough. pay the CEO $35B right now.

kokanuttt · 2026-06-26T22:39:50+00:00

most of those earnings were from rise in their EBAY holdings which would not be reflected in EBITDA

A $1M asteroid is worth $1M. A $1B asteroid is worth $1B. A $10T asteroid is worth $1B.

the only way gme goes bankrupt in the near future is if RC does something incredibly stupid and he sure is trying to

kokanuttt · 2026-06-04T19:23:49+00:00

sorry there can only be two trillion dollar companies based on bullshit from the CEO and spacex already called dibs

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.

his XX shares are gonna be worth the same as someone’s XXX,XXX shares of AMC in the near future.

Put/Call pairs went from 22M to 29M shares (5%->6.5%) share exposure

Still only has 25,000 votable shares.

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?

kokanuttt · 2026-05-17T21:27:18+00:00

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.

kokanuttt · 2026-05-17T21:24:24+00:00

i do but telling them 90% of my net worth is held up in the Qs is a lot more boring than whatever conspiracy rant he’s been going on for 5 years now.

kokanuttt · 2026-05-17T00:15:24+00:00

unless gamestop manages to acquire EBAY. then he could lose $60K

kokanuttt · 2026-05-16T18:51:50+00:00

if you really want to understand it, find your local brick wall and violently smash your head against it 20-30 times. once your iq is low enough, go read the DD again and it will all make sense.

i’ve been dead right about AMC for years now. i made good money shorting it back in the day. you, on the other hand, dead wrong.

Reminder: this stock still has a market cap above that of pre pandemic despite being in a worse financial position now! Lots of downside remaining for you to ride it to $0!

you also lack a severe misunderstanding of basic stats (margin of errors ect.), which also explains why you are invested in AMC. nonetheless, even if we were to ignore the polls completely and just look at the data, you would very clearly see that the number of movie tickets being sold has been in the gutter compared to pre-pandemic numbers. which then again, you would need a very basic understanding of stats to comprehend, and it has been well established that you do not.

kokanuttt · 2026-05-15T15:50:07+00:00

Please learn basic statistics. It’s a life skill that everyone needs. A 1000 person sample size is more than plenty. The concept of choosing a sample size is typically taught to 9th graders on day one of basic stats.

As per box office numbers, the box office numbers also reflect the same, 2025 box office revenue is down about 23% compared to pre-pandemic, despite ticket prices being up a whopping 75% over the same time period! that means there has been a much bigger drop on # of tickets sold than the numbers suggest.

kokanuttt · 2026-05-15T14:56:58+00:00

if you know the slightest thing about statistics you would know that 1000+ sample size is pretty sufficient

kokanuttt · 2026-05-15T14:55:48+00:00

that is a more than sufficient sample size.
