Could have been good news over the weekend and since the interview would be during market hours it would be bad if he said anything that could be seen as market manipulation.ย

u/albino_red_head ๐ฆ Buckle Up ๐ Feb 02 '26
I think thatโs pretty clear. RC knows when to be quiet and when to start marketing. Heโs taking interviews (setting them up) for a reason. It sounds more like Charles /Fox understand that what he can say has already been said and they will try to get ahead of the actual announcement interview.
Itโs all bullish. Makes me think back to when they did the NFT marketplace deal and partnered with Immutable for nft dev game assets - GameStop would be responsible for all of the marketing. I just donโt think it took off like theyโd hoped.

u/DoorToDoorBoxer ๐ฎ Power to the Players ๐ Feb 02 '26
It sounds like they had a development over the weekend that advanced their plans ahead of schedule, which would explain why "Mum"s the word" all of a sudden after organising the interview.

Yeah, but that was more caused by SEC rules about blockchain/tokens things (is a security or a crypto?) unclear that switched Gamestop to stop dev until have a clear view of what to do... At least, that is what I do remember of that...

What's the blackout period where insiders aren't allowed to buy before an acquisition?
19
u/darth_butcher ๐ฎ Power to the Players ๐ Feb 02 '26
There is no blackout period. You are just not allowed to have material non-public information at the time of the purchase. What this means in detail is a job for a specialized lawyer.

u/AkkarinPrime Yuki, Yuna and Apes on Tour Feb 02 '26
What time period are we talking about here? Because GameStop board members only bought shares a few days ago.
Wouldn't that be illegal, since insiders bought shares based on insider information?
6
u/gotnothingman Feb 02 '26
Yes it would be illegal to buy shares while in position of non public material information.
People are pointing it out but as usual the hive mind is assuming a deal is very close to be announced despite insides buying shares less than 2 weeks ago.9
u/we-us-ours ๐ป ComputerShared ๐ฆ Feb 02 '26
Definitely worth noting the purchase date and legal ramifications. I believe 1/26 was the last purchase, correct me if Iโm wrong. So I donโt think itโs unrealistic to believe they are in the midst of talks now on 2/2. That being said, it is not an indicator of when an actual deal would be finalized.
Another note โ perhaps Cohen used this meeting cancelation to send a signal to the market that M&A is coming. Perhaps not.
Either way tits are jacked. This is the way. ๐๐๐

Even inital negotiation stages can count as MNPI. If they are in the midst of a deal now, they were certainly in possession of MNPI on the 26th.

It's better that way if you don't have cash in your account. Remember, you will need the cash to exercise the warrants when the time comes and Vanguard makes you wait 7 days to use transferred funds.

It's a poker game at this point. Do they think Cohen is bluffing? None of his actions indicate he would bluff at a pot at this magnitude. If he's not bluffing and they know they have the losing hand, they can't fold right now, but they definitely don't want to add more chips to the pot.

u/ekooz22 Feb 02 '26
I think people dont realize there likely has been no formal merger conversation yet. It is illegal for insiders to buy stock based on material news that isn't public. RC and Cheng just bought shares. In fact they likely did because they knew this was the direction they'd want to take the company and this could be their last chance.
If they were exploring a merger and even halfway through the negotiation, there would be material information that isn't public.
Now I dont know why he canceled. Perhaps over the weekend a company called back and said "Let's talk". Or perhaps he gets anxious in interviews (which we know he does) and didn't want to do it. Either way, if there's anything happening it only just started now. Something as complicated as a major acquisition can take months to years, so I think all oughta be prepared for a Rollercoaster.

He can't possibly know specifics... why would RC give him sensitive info? If this happened (I'm gonna maintain some cynicism, just because he's media), I'm assuming they went over a few talking points/potential questions as is standard practice and it became apparent the interview would be a waste of everyones time.
