The California State Teachers' Retirement System, the second-largest public pension by assets in the U.S., bought more shares of movie-theater chain $AMC Entertainment (AMC.US)$ and analytics-software firm $Snowflake (SNOW.US)$, acquired shares of the $Tilray Brands (TLRY.US)$, and reduced its holdings in $Berkshire Hathaway-B (BRK.B.US)$, Buffett's investment juggernaut. Calstrs, as the pension is known, disclosed the stock trades, among others, in a form it filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Calstrs said it doesn't comment on its holdings or on individual investment managers. The pension managed $321.9 billion in assets as of Oct. 31.
AMC stock caught fire during the meme-stock frenzy early in the year, when small investors communicating via social media bought shares of beaten-down companies in hopes of triggering gains that would force people who had bet against those stocks to buy in order to close their bets. The trend led to a surge in volatility that prompted the Federal Reserve to warn this month that meme-stock related market swings could be a risk to the financial system. AMC's third-quarter results were better than expected, and the chain is now accepting cryptocurrencies for online payments.
Yesterday, AMC shares fell 15% to their lowest close since May. The Omicron variant of coronavirus has revived fears that new lockdowns could keep movie-goers away from theaters.
Mooers, what do you think of the giant pension's investment in these most-volatile stocks?

$Grab Holdings (GRAB.US)$ Target $13

$Futu Holdings Ltd (FUTU.US)$ $UP Fintech (TIGR.US)$ I own both. theyre fine. Usa markets are nervous because chinese government official spoke about Hong kong companies seperating from mainland. $Robinhood (HOOD.US)$ Is dragging down trading companies also. lost more money than futu bought back, and lost more than tiger is worth. So in reality americans are dumb for buying a 40 billion dollar stock losing 1.4 billion, but selling the chinese ones buying back 60 million shares and earning profits. They just dont teach math in the usa like in ancient times. 🇨🇳❤️🤣🤣🤣 I was called a traitor, and a communist for buying chinese stocks. I will ❤️ U when nobody else does. Can be a little poor and have good math skills. or have really bad math skills and lose everything. robinhood is garbage, and futu tigr are good.
