at $1 per share, the market cap would be about $300 million, far less than the amount of cash on hand that GameStop currently has, not to even speak of RC's personal warchest and the ~ 200,000 DRS'd investors that would be scooping them up at that price.
Personally I don't see how it would be possible for the price to go that low, but if it did I would be buying as many as I could.
I think Q3 is going to be profitable but I don't think the price will rise after the earnings call. Instead I expect more BS from the MSM and the price will plummet in an attempt to break the ape's hold on the stock.
They're just digging their own grave. This trajectory isn't sustainable. The rate of DRS is just going to skyrocket.
tldr: a share buyback is not needed and if the price of shares is inevitably going down then let the price get as low as possible, and only then a buyback would be a good move
I'm 100% DRS'd. Had some very pressing financial stuff - landlord evicted me after I had the audacity to request basic maintenance, and agreeing an egregious rent hike, but guess he realised he could just not renew and get more with a new tenant. I can't afford to live where I've been for ~20 years on my own anymore unless I move into a bedsit somewhere grim. So, I also have all the expenses of a move across country; and am in the final stages of (hopefully) buying a house, with a mortgage of course.
My rambling point (I am getting there, promise) is, I'd probably have sold some of my shares by now if it weren't for the fact the short & distort team has managed to drag the price down to what I feel is a massively-undervalued area. Money is going to be very tight for me moving forward, I've not bought more shares for a while, but damn I will be loading up as much as possible if they drop the price anywhere near 0.
They cannot beat us. They cannot cellarbox us. All they can do are pathetic misleading stories in their controlled outlets and the whole 'buys to dark pool, sells to market' game. If the price drops to $10 or below, there will be an absolute surge of buying.
I have somewhere to go, fortunately.... some aren't so lucky. Investing is never risk-free but I believe in the fundamentals of GME as a business, and prepared to hodl for as long as it takes.
I think the short-sellers greatly underestimated our collective resolve!
This is an old comment by now, but just wanted to say sounds like you’re doing your best, keep going!!
Gamestop and the rest of us will be here when you’re in a better place. If you need to sell some GME you can always buy some back down the road (especially as they continue to drop pricing lol)
Hope your move has or is working out! Best of luck, you aren’t alone in your struggles or investments 😎
Hey, no worries. Thanks for the encouragement! I move in 3 days, was quite anxious at first but trying to treat it as a fantastic opportunity for a fresh start :)
I bought my first share at $448.30 so why wouldn't I buy more at $1?
Right? Why stop and realize that you buying in at the top is what made the price so high? Why consider people selling stock and taking their profit from idiots buying in and the company not showing the profit is making you the barely stable piece holding up this quickly dissolving Jenga tower? Why bother with complex reasoning and understanding of your role in this practically a pyramid scheme, of a stock support for a dying company?
Yeah the line is Def going to the moon and if stock markets implode there will definitely be your holy reward beyond the pearly mountain dew Gates in the form of money that will totally be given to you guys and worth epic lols amounts. It's a shame we just can't see it and us normies are false in our "rational" pleads to sanity.
Oh well I hope you space chimps have a great time up there and end up much better than Bonnie
What's often misunderstood is that this isn't about money for a lot of people. It's about exposing widespread fraud, corruption, deception, manipulation, and the destruction of the livelihoods of countless people & families.
If my investment of $20 in one share of the stock that is DRSed equates to being one drop in the ocean that turns the tide, then that’s well-worth it to me, my progeny, and species - not to mention all other species on the planet. Even if the odds are against me/us, the odds/benefits far outweigh the drawbacks. I waste $20 on all sorts of bullshit and stuff - this may be another "waste," but not necessarily for naught.
The vast, vast, vast, vaaaaaast majority of stocks not being truly owned by the people who think they own them (being held in brokerages andor 401ks; see: here, here, and here) equates to a "system" that is ripe and rife in fraud, deception, and manipulation.
The more people who understand that, the better chance there is we see a more equitable future for everyone and everything on the planet.
So yeah obviously you guys are all flower power and bragging about how this is for the merits and not the money while also your community brags about how much money they are super gonna make when this over. So I'm done believing the altruism on one hand and greedy on the other you guys have going.
But also wow if you really think this is gonna do something for the fraud inherent in the system. Thats not what is gonna happen and I'm sorry if I am the one that has to tell you that. This is a pyramid scheme where the only people winning are the ones that sell when the price goes up and GameStop which has a group of sycophants to help provide padding for their stock.
Maybe just maybe they use this to pivot and turn back into a profitable company and your stock purchases at least creep back up in value but that's pretty much best case scenario.
Even if you manage to break the system and show the fraud and lay it bare.... which You won't... You won't win this in a way that helps anyone. In fact you guys are just huffing on so much copium for any dopamine in a broken world. I can't even be mad that you guys are hopeful because the world is a depressing place, but this will not be what solves that. And it won't be for naught but help those you are upset at.
I wish you luck in realizing that and hope that no one else here is wasting more than they should.
