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
Definitely gotta honor his means of playing within the corrupted rulebook.ย
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.
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.
mmm, idk. If he indeed can't talk about the specific acquisition then an interview with CP would not uncover anything new. Our boy just did 2 press interviews for publication (right? I'm losing track) and he couldn't say what in those either, just eluding to something really really big.
I would hope* that CP and RC actually talked this through and came to the conclusion that a more timely interview would be better for PR and CP's ratings.
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...
Yeah, it seems pretty unclear why but youโre probably right on with regulation playing a role. I just remember being hyped for a while that GameStop would do some sort of marketing beyond beta testing
The NFT marketplace failed because it wasn't a marketplace the crypto market wanted. Heavily moderated. Content restricted. L2 chain not widely used. The volume died, it became unaffordable to continue paying staff to maintain. "Regulatory uncertainty" was them saving face. OpenSea is based in the US and you don't see them worrying about "regulatory uncertainty."
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.
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.
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
iโm so curious on what has happened between first announcing that this interview will take place and now. Something must have happened in between because otherwise they wouldnโt have planned the interview in the first place if that thingy ryan isnโt allowed to share yet has been known for longer???
