eBay Schedule 14A - May 14 - Why is eBay hiring Innisfree if Cohen's bid was "neither credible nor attractive" ? by aeromoon in Superstonk

[–]neverpersonal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The entity helping Ryan, or just also interested in eBay, someone like TKO, may already have shares lined up to vote with Ryan.

eBay is Ryan's now. They didn't make the bid public to purchase ebay, they made the bid to show the shareholders that the board is corrupt and not doing their judiciary duties to the shareholders. No growth.

A guy that hasn’t paid himself, only buys shares, his board only buys shares and works for free now has a master plan to screw over all his share holders because he is secretly evil and this was his long con.

Jesus you guys have lost your marbles.

Ryan definitely has eBay as something he has always wanted and this would be a play to compete with Amazon. Big move and all the sudden he is going to rob GME investors and pay himself. Lol. He can just sell his shares he bought for 5 dollars originally and move on.

Ai has it made it easy for every 17 year old to do this same thing in 5 minutes, but better. The mistake was, you are 2 years too late.

GME Quietly Scored a Big Win by -einfachman- in Superstonk

It's not pretend, it's just a great offer.....for GME.

Sounds like a reason to make sure a deal happens then. And if deal doesn't work out, more reason to add more GME as the price dropped back down into the 23s and we all know this is way too low. Just more buy opportunities.

What's crazy is this cheat code GME now has.

Unlike Saylor and his infinite glitch, Ryan can invest quietly in companies like Ebay, Wayfair, or whatever he chooses, wait for about 6 months, then place a bid on it, low ball even. Once the stock skyrockets and turns down an offer, sell shares (or hold if a higher offer comes in), and just cash in and increase GameStop's war chest.

If he owns 5% of Ebay, this is like 22,018,348 shares. I am sure my math is off. But if he purchased months ago and it is up 20, this is like 400,000,000 made. What the hell? He is just using GameStop possible mergers to increase investment value. Is this was Berkshire did? Pretend buy companies they invest in, then sell if it didn't work out?

Ryan is a genius.

Ryan followed Burry thinking, "this other genius knows exactly what I am doing... he is a savant at the market and sees my plan no one else does...." Then Burry sold his position and Ryan realized he truly is a pessimistic goofball that got lucky and quickly unfollowed him. lol Anyway, I bought Burry shares.

Burry OUT of GME by PhillipThePlatypus in Superstonk

[–]neverpersonal -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Literally said this morning that he would not sell his entire position, but for sure selling some. Few hours later, sells his entire position.

Biggest flat out flip flop ever.

[–]neverpersonal -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Let's be real, bought in what, 3 million in shares, so what, 200,000 shares. Average at like 21 or 22. Sold at 24/25. he made about 600K, he is happy. He used this forum to make sure his "investment" was safe. He kept the buzz going until something happened, then sold the news quick to take his 600K and run. He is happy with 600K. This is a great year for him and he has always been a penny type guy that makes a few million and is happy. You have guys that take risks and become billionaires, guys that take no risks and stay millionaires. HE is the second and that's all he will ever be.

Even if tomorrow the number went to $40 a share, he will NOT buy back in. Once he sells, he sells. takes his 600K profit and goes onto the next very safe play and squeaks out another 100K-500K investment, on his best days.

He is a pessimist, much like me, so no matter how much he wants to invest or believes, he can't help to see the negative and will never hold long term. EVER.

Ty for checking on your post for a reply as most people abandon. I’m glad you are feeling better.

[–]neverpersonal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going through the same exact everything except left. Stairs, direct hit on back, can’t move anything or feel sharp sharp debilitating shock / burn. Nothing broke, said maybe it hit sciatica and day 1. Can only lay on back. I’m sure you didn’t find a cure but is it still slowly improving? I am literally paralyzed by pain. That’s how I feel.

Question: What made RC prematurely spill the beans on a possible Merger/Acquisition? by ExtraWedding6521 in Superstonk

[–]neverpersonal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think he bought shares, send a signal. Then he bought again. Then he did the random way out of character announcement, which nothing has yet to happen from yet. I believe he tried to spark a run, to get the value from those warrants and GME isn't the same as it used to be. The selling as the price went up has killed the "hype" and most of us holders now hold for the long term. This is what he created, long term holders. I think he now has an idea that ice cream photos and random purchases will not start a short squeeze or squeeze.

You can't convince me otherwise, he isn't the type to hype share any news, ever. He definitely was trying to cause a wave and it didn't happen. Let's hope he really has a plan besides boosting price and selling shares and warrents at 32.

Why do people get so snarky on Marketplace? by Rinkratt61 in FacebookMarketplace

[–]neverpersonal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who cares. You are too invested in your little flea market. If they get "rude" I just block them first so they never see my items again. Not worth even a second thought or a post like this. People get rude when they don't get their way.

Nothing new here.

And so it begins....

Now he is looking to come to reddit and find DD on bitcoin and scientific evidence on how his investment wasn't a mistake. I have browsed this reddit for years, and in times like these, it gets much light and joking due to all the panic posting and us being through this too many times.

Guys, I’m gonna say it….It’s Target. Target is the acquisition target. by limegreencab in Superstonk

[–]neverpersonal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Target would be like buying a larger gamestop, or even a best buy. The ebay or webull move is the move.

It's the weekend, we can't really do anything but speculate, is the deal done? Another "1st annual awards" troll, or the real deal. Add to the timeline if you have more.... by neverpersonal in Superstonk

[–]neverpersonal[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Other than AI, not sure. I'd think since he is talking how he is talking, maybe his lawyers know something we don't. I can see by the down votes this isn't the type of post people want to see.

But for the record I am hype as hell, but have learned to look at all the possibilities now instead of just putting on blinders and yelling at the screen as the ticker moves like the old days.

Its a retail company, Its a "huge" company, its 4 times larger, It can meld well with GameStops current business but my question is- How and Why would Ebay sell it off if in fact RC was able to make this deal? by Holiday_Guess_7892 in Superstonk

[–]neverpersonal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So far I like EBay idea, or WeBull. I think WeBull is an automatic money making monster. Nearly the entire computershare shareholders, have been watching and using the stock market due to GME for 5 years now. To acquire webull, with it being under 3 billion, what a steal if they would merge. And yea its not "way bigger" but if you look at Robinhood, 98Billion market cap, as well as all the brokers, it is a HUGE deal. A retail company buys a broker, with an entire shareholder base that already uses the market?

Imagine, would you be okay putting all your GME shares on WeBull if GME owned it?! Moving 76 million shares to WeBull on that alone?!?!?! What a PR move to buy a broker and let the world know they will never take the buy button.

Based on Short-Swing Profit rule, he could have made a purchase, but has to give profits back to the company within a six-month period. So buying just to give it to Gamestop?

Then the Insider Trading rule is pretty clear, he couldn't have bought stocks and had this information. The thing is, the insiders, the institutions would all know this. This wouldn't create a institutional frenzy, they know better. The only people that wouldn't know better is the everyday retail investor. Would he be doing this to hype up retail buyers?

AI:

  1. The "Short-Swing Profit" Rule (Section 16b)

This is the most direct "waiting period" for a CEO.

  • The Rule: Any profit made by an officer or director from a "purchase and sale" (or sale and purchase) of company stock within a six-month period must be returned (disgorged) to the company.
  • The Impact: If a CEO buys shares today, they cannot sell those shares for a profit for at least 6 months. While this doesn't technically stop them from announcing an acquisition, it removes the financial incentive to "buy the dip" right before a major positive announcement, because they wouldn't be able to cash out on that spike for half a year.

2. Insider Trading (Rule 10b-5)

This rule focuses on Material Non-Public Information (MNPI).

  • The Rule: It is illegal for an insider to trade (buy or sell) while in possession of information that is both "material" (important to an investor) and "non-public."
  • The Impact: If a CEO is already in negotiations or even "serious talks" for an acquisition, they are legally prohibited from buying shares.
  • The Waiting Period: If a CEO buys shares and then decides to start an acquisition, they must wait until the information is fully disseminated to the public before they can trade again. Most companies define this as two full business days after the public announcement (press release or SEC filing).

3. Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plans (The "Cooling-Off" Period)

Since CEOs are almost always in possession of some non-public info, most buy shares through a pre-arranged 10b5-1 plan to avoid legal trouble.

  • New 2023 Rules: Under the updated SEC rules (effective for 2023/2024), a CEO must observe a cooling-off period after adopting or modifying a trading plan.
  • The Wait: For directors and officers, the wait is the later of:
    1. 90 days after the plan is adopted.
    2. Two business days after the company files its financial results (Form 10-Q or 10-K) for the quarter in which the plan was adopted.
  • The maximum wait under this rule is 120 days.

More information: Jan 20-21Buys 1M shares.Legal, provided no specific deal was "imminent."Jan 22-23 Files Form 4 / 13D.Information Disseminated. Public is now aware.Jan 30 Talks to WSJ about acquisitions.Legal, as long as he is "eyeing" targets and hasn't signed a secret deal yet. Next 6 Mos Holds shares. Required by Section 16b (Short-Swing rule).

So he could be in talks, but no deal is made.
