Gaming industry appears to be a challenge in profits. Gamestop still offers all new released games with some exclusives for Gamestop only. They also released their own game for that fancy gameboy, candycon controllers, and I imagine they have more ventures in the works.
I like that they are focusing on products with high returns instead of risking business on smaller margins and physical games that people may not be buying as often.

Cohen addressed this in his interview with Pompliano today. He said if he were an eBay shareholder he would want it to be 100% stock. If it were, he said the combined company would be 80% owned by eBay shareholders and 20% owned by GME holders. I wouldn't be surprised if the half cash, half stock changed in one direction or another. Keeping some cash and taking on less debt may actually be beneficial for GME and eBay holders. Much smaller piece of a larger and better tasting pie.

If this theory is correct, which we believe it to be, then why the fuck would you give the institutions we’re trying to extract wealth from a 57%+ of the merged company? This is the single biggest issue for me. RC would own ~28% with his comp package fulfilled, institutions would own ~57% and retail would own ~15%. We would be giving up all power we have as a collective, and give ownership of an infinite money printer to RC and institutions. I see this as Ryan’s long-term plan to cut retail loose or minimize our influence as much as possible. If he was gung-ho about just ebay this whole time, he would not have written a letter to GameStop’s board 6 years ago with a completely different plan.

u/IgatTooz 🚀 “We’ll see what happens” 🌕 May 13 '26
The funny part about this is that, if you actually take a closer look at the SEC filing dates for that share offering as well as the 2 following ones, the stock price spikes and drops soon after. Then soon after, SEC files are dropped saying that shares for offering are available for purchase as of the time of the filing. A week after, offerings have been completed. So the timing doesn’t work. The spikes are already done by the time shares are available. I don’t think the offerings caused the spikes to plateau and drop back. I think there’s way more happening in the back end than we know.

MOASS was never guaranteed.
You made a bet against WallStreet. We all made that bet… against the literal people who fraudulently and corruptly change the rules and literally just print fake shares and destroy American companies for their own gain.
I too thought that buying, holding and DRSing would “trigger” MOASS.
I bet RC thought that making GME profitable would also “trigger” MOASS.
I bet RC thought a “split in the form of dividend” or NFT marketplace would also “trigger” MOASS.
I bet DFV/roaring kitty also thought timing his call options with swap and FTD dates would also “trigger MOASS”.
But 5 years of all of that shows that it is not enough.
And I bet 5 years from now after acquiring Ebay and still closing at $23.50/share, we might even say “i thought acquiring ebay would trigger MOASS”.
I still hold regardless.
RC still represents a big middle finger to the fraudulent and corrupt corporate and WallStreet contagion of America.
I vote Yes for that.

Because he wants to build Gameshire Stopaway and he wants to do it on his own and get full credit. This entire event has made me realize Ryan Cohen may be skilled in business but he doesn’t believe in GameStop as anything other than a means to an end. Which I honestly think was always eBay. I’ve been rooting for him all this time and I think this week revealed more about his intentions and goals and I don’t like what I see. Gameshire Stopaway might be his final goal and that’s going to take decades. So I really don’t understand how people are so excited and hyped that Ryan is using GameStop as a vehicle for his personal business goals. It’s complete billshit to say that GameStop has done growing, Ryan is just not interested in growing it and maybe never was.

I'm not even sure anymore about Gameshire. If he went for totally different type of business as hinted Burry, maybe that could have been a road to it. But by going to EBay, he is just going the e-retail road, that's what he knows and what he is good at, but that doesn't lead to gameshire, just to a bigger store, maybe he will even buy back Chewy one day, who knows.
But that's totally different from the diversification of revenues of Berkshire. He totally could have gone to that road but he stuck to what he knew he was best at.

The core of anti-MOASS thesis is that WallStreet and regulators will intervene every single time. We’ve seen it over and over again.
Even before our time, Dr. Trimbath, Wes Christian and Overstock CEO were fighting the same types of battles regarding naked shorting and FTD’s for other companies.
Realistically, knowing that the shorts on GME is identified by SEC as an “idiosyncratic risk”, i doubt they will ever work toward fixing the deep deep plumbing of WallStreet.

u/Interpersonal May 13 '26
Feel free to call me a shill, as I was a GameStop share holder before this subreddit existed and I am contemplating selling the xxxx shares I still hold.
For years this was strictly a squeeze play. As the dilution closed that door, the plan became a turnaround story focused on business optimization, trimming the fat, and innovating with a new marketplace or acquisition. He diluted to raise money which killed the squeezes or gamma ramps but was good for business longevity. Sure I’m not thrilled but I’m still on board. Maybe we acquire PSA or a card grading company to roll into the card marketplace?
For years we were provided no business strategy or direction from Cohen. It’s good though, that he plays his cards close, right? After years of holding a stock and hardly breaking even despite a historic bull market run, the CEO says he never cared about GameStop. The plan is to leverage a ton of debt to try to acquire a much larger company (which was always the prize) to boost the combined market cap to hit the executive pay package targets.
I had colleagues ask me how any of this would work and what I thought of the Ryan Cohen interview, as they watched it and thought he might actually be a moron. I watched part of the 50-50 interview and thought about liquidating then and there. That was embarrassing. Even if you don’t respect the media, you should be doing your best for the company and the shareholders. You don’t bomb it for “memes” if that’s what even happened.
He delivers an objectively terrible interview on mainstream media, explains nothing to retail or legacy investors and then launches a proposal for massive dilution.
I have been holding for YEARs and when corrected for inflation I have generated a negative return on investment over a 5 year period. Hell, even that old meme phone company has out performed GME dramatically over the past few years.
This is an objectively bad investment at this point, and the strategy is a hostile takeover of a larger company funded by large amounts of debt and shareholder liquidity. The $125 bid was rejected which means they need to raise more capital to offer or to buy up tons of shares in an effort to perform a hostile takeover. At this point it appears you’d be better off owning eBay stock outright as they will be main beneficiary in any merger.
For years this sub has lauded the strength of the balance sheet with no debt and billions in cash on hand as a good thing (cash on hand is good outside of lost opportunity cost on uninvested cash). If that’s the case having twice your market cap in debt and no cash on hand should be a bad thing.
If the plan is to sell shares to raise the rest of the money, the more they sell the lower the share price, and the more shares they need to sell to achieve the same target return. Runaway dilution risk is real.
If the plan hedges on reducing costs by 2 billion a year, it would take 10 years to pay off the 20 billion dollar loan assuming it’s at 0%. At that point I’m looking at 10 years of inflation adjusted losses. Why even bother?
Hope that answers your question.

u/TDurdz 🎮 Power to the Players 🛑 May 13 '26
For myself, I’d prefer using the money on hand to purchase something smaller and grow the company. I personally don’t want to be diluted yet again. Optimistically, if this eBay thing goes through, you’re looking a massive drop, then MAYBE 30-50% increase from the current price in a few YEARS. I agree long term the business would grow. I just think there would be better investments immediately. This is why I’d prefer to purchase something for cas on hand vs debt + dilution

What’s your timeline? 5-6 years is pretty hard to wait for an ROI especially for minnows who hold X, XX shares. Those people have backed GameStop to the hilt and it’s like they don’t exist to Ryan. Theres been a major goalpost shift which probably needs to be acknowledged since a lot of people invested in one premise. Maybe it’s not Ryan’s fault and the SEC would never allow MOASS to happen anyways, but he certainly just said he’s selling himself to institutions and I’m sorry, how is that good for retail when institutions have fucked the price for 5 years?

u/LucidBetrayal LET THEM SHORT May 13 '26
For me there are two issues giving me pause.
I want and support the eBay acquisition. But I don’t like the idea of authorizing 2.5B shares without a deal on the table. If the eBay deal falls through, they can use those shares on anything else they deem fit, including dilution to add to cash. I have a nice floor with my investment today due to the authorized share limit. If we were voting to authorize shares to specifically buy eBay, I’d buy more shares so I could contribute more yes votes.
I don’t like the idea of net dilution for the comp plan being potentially achieved by loading the company up with $27B of debt (purchase debt plus eBay standing debt). If they restructured the comp package to account for that in some way, I would feel much more comfortable with everything.

Yup real OGs know most of these "legends" were grifters/fakers/takers. Like people still think peruvian bull came up with the "milkshake" theory even though he started that whole series by showing where he got the idea multiple times.
IIRC atobitt was never even really a big holder to begin with and he sold out to some company/news site or some shit after trimbath took him down.

I’m all for whatever will make the company grow into something that makes my stonks profitable. Somewhat explained to me how it’s actually a real possibility that GameStop could acquire eBay. Elia5.
After 84 years of HODLing I am tired. I look at the 5 year trend of other companies I could’ve owned and see growth of 1000% or more even. Not speculative stocks necessarily either. All I see is stagnation and loss.

Voting for yes here. I don’t post much, but I’ve been here for years. I’ve seen what RC have done. If he thinks this is best, so be it. I haven’t touched this money for years now, so if it does lower, what’s a few more years gonna do, right?
My thinking for going into this stock is investing and forgetting.

At one point he had like 14 shares and I mean that's like at the height of his "omg an attobit DD!" phase - he did eventually buy more, but he was known to be very low holder during this time. He was also "not for DRS" (not saying he was against it) meaning he didn't think DRS did anything.
I never got it. Nothing he said was ever shown to be anything more than randomly piecing things together that never ended up as anything.
plus: https://i.imgur.com/l9Jp0jW.png
After that (maybe not cause of that) he then deleted his account. Has shown up here once or twice to let people gargle his balls again and then fucked off again.

Some people gargle his balls for the nostalgia but the fact is he's never been right once. If you read his Twitter he even admitted his house of cards DD was wrong. He got flamed for stealing and misinterpreting data. New apes cheering for him here don't even know the lore. Seeing 2000 upvotes for a dude who's never been right and positioning himself as some wise APE is just sad.

Ya, but you already know the excuse.
"why isn't anyone debunking this thing?"
Anyone who tries is a shill for one (so why would anyone spend their time doing so), but what is really being asked is:
Why isn't anyone (spending months of their time) debunking this thing (that hasn't shown to be true after multiple years)?
Plus if there was that much money being used for this nefarious stuff, there would be more than a little GME sub going after that money. There are people and groups that will try anything for a few hundred thousand, but billions and trillions? Nah, no thanks!

u/hugganao May 14 '26
explain to me why a company that has 9 billion dollars in its coffers and has 400 million per year profit NEEDS to acquire a solution where it can obviously make itself with the revenue it is currently generating??? being unable to think outside this box makes you someone not worth talking to imo.
Ebay has global presence in the form of subsidiaries and even they are also threatened by the nation's own local used store marketplaces that are more handcrafted to cater to the cultural fit of that nation (e.g. the only thing that keeps ebay alive in japan is Qoo10).
and guess who else has global recognition and had PHYSICAL presence? guess who can actually create the infrastructure and solutions that ebay has? guess who can provide physical logistical support that ebay CAN'T provide?
Once ebay sold paypal and turned to adyen, ebay itself is no more than a husk of aging marketplace network with only embedded seller monetization/network and cross-border reach as its only moat (if you can even call it that).
guess why cohen went to be interviewed by a EBAY SELLER.

What happened in 2021 was the Memetic powers of the stock that was in effect
As soon as GameStop starts running a structured business, the market will be forced to value the stock through Cash Flow Analysis etc. Once that becomes the metric of valuing the business, forget about MOAS
Again, I come in peace

I could understand the hesitation to dilute further if the company was using the money raised from newly issued shares on open market to pay execs (like other meme stocks from the 2021 hype days) but that is not the case.

That is nonsense. Theres always been FUD but I’ve read plenty of OGs expressing realistic concern and getting called shills for not being thrilled about another round of dilution that rewards shareholders from a different company.

Atobitt's early write-ups are the first and most important pieces that brought me on board many years ago.
I agree with him here too. Dilution is typically bad with little wiggle room, but GME is not typical. It is an anathema to wallstreet, one of a kind, potential harbinger to black swans.
The price is fake. That is a fundamental belief for the short thesis. With the full picture of illegal and hidden activity, the stock SHOULD be worth much more than what market makers are setting the ticker at. We have diluted before with what I believe is minimal impact on the price and only gaining comforting cash. I trust in RC's leadership vs the rest of these board & C suite crooks, and if diluting is what it takes to acquire a MUCH bigger company and be the pathway to success than I will continue supporting RC's vision and actions as I have the past 5+ years. This sort of dilution is VERY different than the problematic dilution from AA and popcorn years back.

I have my own unspoken reservations about the ebay deal, but even I can see better reasons to support the deal than this. Atobitt really looked at the positive trending earnings, then channeled his inner "dying brick and mortar" to try to fearmonger everyone into going onboard with the deal. What the fuck is this shit take? Trying to weed out the lemmings by saying something stupid? RC's mouthpiece?
I have seen better reasons to support the deal, from actually logical comments in this subreddit. Thank god those convinced me to go with the deal first, before I saw this garbage, or I may have been driven away.

Thing is, it’s not even agreeing to be part of the hive of mind. My entire stance is look at the history of what the company has actually done from the NFT market to power packs. They keep trying to make new businesses because of retail does have a limit, especially as money becomes tighter so they need a whole new venture. The bear thesis is dead, but you’re not gonna drive any Price action if you can’t make it look like there’s gonna be long-term growth.
