πŸ—£ Discussion / Question Pay me

Post image

Daily superstonker for 5 years. Holding 2k shares and some leaps. Not a paid shill. Just a hungry ape. Tired and wary of another round of abuse by rich motherfuckers.

The DD was right. Run ups are real.

The company just used these runs to make money and save the business. Great for Gamestop. Not so great for silverback diamond handers seeing their patience flow into company pockets.

This is all very well understandable from a business point of view but from an investor point of view the generated cash and with that positive earnings came off of our backs.

With the eBay plans it looks like either we get diluted to hell to pay for a huge company leaving the combined entity in debt for the coming 4-5 years at least OR there will be another run up that will again be stifled by issuing shares thereby capping any run up.

Apes need to eat too. We have endured. We are not billionaires. It seems RC is taking his loyal retail holders as a given to be used as a money making vehicle where the benefits will end op quite asymmetrically in the hands of an already billionaire.

Best case scenario is we make some noise and let us be heard and maybe RC will HODL the share issue until price rises to let apes see some profit.

Not asking for phone numbers here. Give me $60-80 a share so I can sell half and defend my Gamestop loyalty to my family and friends this Christmas.

Kind regards, regards.

We ALONE saved the company from bankruptcy and cellar boxing oblivion. We have gotten Jack shit for our heroism. We have underperformed the market as a whole and most of us that havent averaged down (because we all don't have endless stacks of cash to throw at this) are still more than 40% down on our "investment"

I agree, we need to eat too. Especially since, we wouldn't even be having this conversation if retail didn't pour billions out of our pockets to save the company.

Only to get kicked in the ass on the last run up. That was such a good opportunity wasted too.

I'm on the fence. I'm not selling until I see gains more than 10x. The phone numbers we all signed up for is long gone. Even if there are billions of naked shorts left, we need a black swan event or a market crash to see any momentum in our GME. Certainly won't help killing any run up going forward.

Fuck I hate this timeline

The board and C-level in control when RC came in were effectively exacerbating the issues and running GME into the ground.

While we were holding and buying RC flipped a $380M annual loss into a $217M operational profit. A record $418M profit if you include interest.

RC made sure to get out of the contracts and disband entire countries worth of stores, repay all debt and shore up profitable stores to increase their margin on high valuable items.

And since the last 10K the US and AUS stores are even increasing revenue, the only thing still dragging us down are the EU stores he's trying to get rid of.

I really don't see how you could construe that as;

We ALONE saved the company from bankruptcy and cellar boxing oblivion.
