Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By BigGulp: Someone run to WSB and make a gleeful post about how they're all paper handed suckers and thank them for letting you make hundreds of thousands shorting MVIS today. Funny thing is most of those Billionaire shorters also make side bets on the publicized meme pumps now so at worse they end up neutral in the end. The Gamestop fiasco caught them off guard and forced them to sharpen their strategy and hedge their bets from now on making them more powerful than ever. |

I am not going to say it's over by any means, but today seems like it was a hell of a bear raid. Goddamn.
If/When a buyout happens it will be interesting to look back at the trading activity to see if there are any lessons to be learned. |

It will replace a 4runner if I decide to go through with it. If the BO happens, maybe. I have one on order for my wife as well. Still don't have a build date yet, but was later getting on the reservation list. |

It would be worse to sell at like 22 and then it jumps to 24 and you are stuck on the sidelines or buying in worse off. That's what I tell myself anyway. |

Then yesterday happened and I was pissed I sold Friday so I bought back in at $22 and made a bunch of money. I almost sold at the end of the day but didn't. FML. I mean, I am still up overall but damn. I could have probably doubled my shares by now if I was a little better at this. |

So 70% of my account is MVIS but I do have a few positions in other things, couple being Leaps on F and GE. So GE beats earnings today and sinks thru the floor. Can't make this shit up. F earnings are tomorrow and I fully expect the same to happen.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Osprey61: BTW, I could have just said we're up 12.7% on Friday's close, and left it at that, but sometimes you need to vent. Sorry, feel better now. Second Moderna shot yesterday walloped my wife. Trying to care for her and two puppies is kicking my ass. Our doctor said her reported reactions from the second dose are running close to 50%. For planning purposes it's a really good idea to clear your calendar for a day or so afterwards. Weird, too, because the (mild) reaction I got took almost 14 hours to hit. Same for Mrs. Osprey... Hope she feels better soon. I just had my 2nd shot an hour ago. |

I asked one of the FC guys about the remaining share authorization, and he says MVIS sold the entire shelf during the last round of financing, and would have to come to the shareholders before Holt could dilute again. Assuming that's accurate, it takes one huge short term potential negative (it's actually a mixed blessing...short term neg, long term pos) in this situation off the table.
