These meme traders are in denial
$AMC Entertainment(AMC.US$ Everytime something goes wrong, they have some narrative, a story, some sort of theatrical performance as an excuse for their bad life decisions. Manipulation here, manipulation there, manipulation mother f’ing everywhere. But not once have they ever considered that they were wrong, that they were not the heroes, and instead just the zeroes. They’re so confident despite having every reason not to be, lacking experience, lacking education, lacking credentials, lacking results, and unfortunately lacking in foresight. In the eyes of investors such as myself, we look at AMC and we shake our heads. Was AMC and GME a short squeeze? Yes, but that was once upon a time, the days are gone and the pimple has been squeezed, any further squeezing will only cause blemishes and spilled blood. Furthermore the saddest part of it all is that in the midst of it all AMC has only egged on retail investors, issuing more shares, like giving crack to crack addicts. Claiming that the share price will go up. Keep in mind, if you own 10% of the business and you multiple your shares outstanding by 10x, you now own 1% of the business, You lose 90% of the profit you would have been entitled to had the company not issued shares as a result share prices will fall over long periods of time because $1 EPS goes to $0.10 EPS. Is the goal of investing, is the goal of business not to make profit? Why are shareholders lauding the company for making less money per share? But the APEs haven’t considered this, they have never considered themselves to ever be wrong, despite being completely and utterly lacking in every way which possible they have refused to humble themselves and entertain the possibility that their thesis has been wrong all along, and that more importantly, AMC has played them as fools by extracting billions of dollars from investors with no chance of recouping losses.

MindOverMatter : Why are they borrowing so many shares and pushing up the fee then
MindOverMatter :
xXSavage_Red_PandaXx : could not agree more with this someone with an actual brain
but these apes will continue to find every excuse in the book to justify thier hopium
MindOverMatter : "tHIeR H0piUM"
FirstStrike Veteran : Wow, you took a lot of off time to basically call apes stupid. Why do you care at all anyway? You said quiet a bit but didn't say anything intelligent or worth my time. I am not an Ape but I do buy AMC on occasion. I would like for you to look at each time AMC diluted the stock and what happened most of the time after they did it. Explain to all the stupid investors, with real data why MEMES are dead. Go spend your time looking doing something positive with your life instead of worrying about someone else's investments.
I will be waiting for an explanation with real data to prove your points.
Domingo Friggin Ramirez : why should it bother you so much? ur not in amc move along.
Ryan Face : this post made me laugh your pride is your demise and your education means very little if brainwashed. yes with the APE stock shares and voting rights have increased but shareholder's shares have not been dilluted due to common stock being matched 1 for 1 so in conclusion having a college education and being educated are quite far from the same in your case mr. worthless investing, try again.
The Value InvestorOP FirstStrike Veteran: Why do I care? Because I believe in something just as you do, the only way to test my beliefs is to have people argue against it. I prefer writing (or well I guess typing) things out organize my thoughts and solidify my stance. Unlike the average APE I don’t subscribe to echo chambers, I want you to hate me, I want you to argue against me. If I’m wrong, big deal, better be a fool for a minute then an idiot for a lifetime. At the very least I find this humoring. Running away from the argument and failing to address the points that I’ve brought up only makes the probability of me being right higher though.
Why do i care? Why does an engineer care to point out catastrophic mistakes their fellow engineers make? Why does a chef care about upholding the basic fundamentals of cookery? Why do painters, or Bob Ross, care to point out that blue and yellow don’t make red? The people who have no personal interest in caring are the ones who care for the art of cooking, the art of painting, the art of engineering, the art of investing the most simply because they love their art.
FirstStrike Veteran The Value InvestorOP: huh? ok well I believe AMC will be cash flow positive in the 4th quarter, I don't think they can sustain being cash flow positive without diluting APE, which will happen eventually. AA has said that there's no immediate plan to do this but it is inevitable. I will also point out that when AA dilutes the stock price goes up. APE will be how they get rid of all the dept they took on while closed during the pandemic. They spend a lot paying dept and and when that's gone, AA will continue to make moves. I bought back in today, so my risk is not very high on AMC. Like I said I am not an APE, I am a trader, but I will not belittle anyone on their investments, as long as they have a plan.
The Value InvestorOP Ryan Face: 1. The APE situation does not actually dilute investors (yet) they merely make it more convenient to do so later on in the future (watch the interview on yahoo finance, AMC’s words not mine)
2. I didn’t mention college education, it helps to not speculate, not to mention college is probably not very helpful in learning how to pick stocks in 90% of cases, but who knows I could be wrong, either way I didn’t bring up college, your speculative mind did.
3. Just based on probability, the chances of the average APE being brainwashed is much higher. The demographic is more exposed to social medias, how many times do companies need to straight up tell you that they manipulate your news sources and lead you to echo chambers before you understand that you should seldom touch tiktok, facebook, IG, twitter, reddit, and more. Also, again, stop speculating, your speculations are limited by your own frameworks, and those are limited by your media intake, better off just sticking to objective facts and if you can’t make a good conclusion then don’t. Investing isn’t about getting 300% gains, it’s about avoiding 70-80% losses. A 75% loss requires a 4x, which is why It’s hilarious when meme traders start talking about shorts covering after a 10-20% , let alone 50% swing in prices.
