Bored, and want to live dangerously?
Company I've been in for 14 years is in it's death throes...got pounded by the 'Rona. They own a wall of patents on MEMS laser projection and LIDAR, and just signed an agreement with MSFT last week to transfer manufacture of the light engine in Hololens II to a royalty agreement. The next day 50M shares traded...and there are only 150M shares total for the company. Looks now like they were cleaning up for a sale/merger because... ..."MVIS-Today announced it has retained investment banking firm Craig-Hallum Capital Group LLC to serve as its financial advisor as it explores various licensing and other strategic alternatives, including a potential sale or merger of the company." Selling this morning at .22 to .23 a share. Speculation is rampant about what a sale would bring, because potential suitors include MSFT, Apple, STM, Sony and others. Read this thread carefully to see what's going on!...and don't gamble money you can't afford to lose. A reverse-split is also still on the table, and those almost always destroy shareholder value*. ETA: *"destroy shareholder value" is a euphemism for "individual investor loses his shirt". MVIS retains Craig Hallum Full disclosure: I hold 30K shares at an .84 ASP. If they sell for a buck a share I make beer money. If it goes for $5 I make Porsche money. Point is, at .23 right now a buck sale will be a three bagger... UPDATE: CEO just sent out a memo begging shareholders to vote "yes" on the reverse split...heavy implication is they're getting hammered by "no" votes, and the motion won't pass, or is in serious danger. MVIS Reddit is lighting up. I won't pretend to fully understand the repercussions, but it sure is entertaining. If you have proxy voting rights, please use them and support the vote of no confidence on item 3! Go here and do some (non-technical) Reddit reading. Emotions running high. Share is up 28% as I type.

Those FUBO weeklies I bought today are up 45%
Should have bought more |

Well this is new and interesting.
WWR, Westwater Resources, Inc, mines lithium, uranium and graphite. I bought some this morning at 6.70 for a long term Biden play. It just bolted to over $8, I guess I got super lucky with my timing. Edit: It's fucking flying towards $9. |

If it goes under 8.10, I'll go back in tonight. If not, all ride out tomorrow, |

I only had enough cash for 50 shares. Wish I would have sold some shit off now. I'm gonna hold, I think anything battery and EV related is going to be a solid play for awhile. |

GME - Looks like a 70,000 share wall to sell at 150. Shares being gobbled up fast.
Still holding. |

Back in with MVIS @8.09
|
|
|
In the general excitement, it's easy to lose sight of why MVIS is appreciating.
S2upid put together this primer, which mixes in a little speculation and some guesses at valuation. Really well done, and worth reading when you finish counting the days profit MVIS for Dummies |

Well I'll admit my fuckup. Had an order in for an 85 Jan29 call @ 21.00 on GME this morning. Canceled it as I thought it was too risky of a trade. Still have my MVIS calls though

Sold my FUBO calls I bought today for a 54% gain
Just need to do that every day |

At least AMC rebounded back up to almost where I bought in.

AMC might break 5 today.
@Kaik Since no one listened to you last time, how do you think the AMC squeeze will play out over the next few weeks or months? |

GME 166 after Elon! GAAAAINZ.. thanks for everyone who pointed out what was going on with this stock. I learned so much, and made even more. |
|
|
Bailed at 149.5... Was down 25k yesterday, up over 7k now. Although damn you Elon lol
|

SXOOF did well today. Even after buying in after a big jump, it kept rising.
Too bad I only had $150 bucks free to put in it. |

Really well done, and worth reading when you finish counting the days profit MVIS for Dummies View Quote Thank you for that. Pretty interesting. Ive resisted the temptation to sell all/portion of my 175k shares to net a significant profit but presentations such as this bolster my occasionally sagging confidence in holding on. |

GME makes me nauseous. I made about $20k this morning on a quick trade. If I had been ballsy enough to stick it out, I would be up a quarter million for the day.
Ok, make that half a million. I am fucking sick. |

Got out of GME at 182.

I chickened out and still made money.
I suppose I should try again tomorrow and not be a pussy about it mid day. Hopefully there is a dip in the morning again. |

I have to admit, the FOMO is getting me bad right now.
I realize that when this ride is over it's going to be like driving a semi truck fully loaded 100 mph into a bridge abutment, but I still want in. |

ATOS tanked on me, should have sold the whole wad yesterday instead of holding some back. I'll probably drop some of that, grab AMC again and then continue to watch the mania that is GME. I'm trying to be a little practical with my buys, it's fun to do these crazy ones when it works out. My long holds are TAHN, TMDI, WWR TRCH i've been holding, they have a merger coming up, I'll probably see what that does to it and then get rid of that. AMC I'll do like I did with GME today, grab some during the morning sell off, then hope all hell breaks loose mid day. |

View Quote At some point even the most die hard Wall Street Bets reader will take profit on GME The next most talked about ticker there is BB. Up only 3% post market but I see a double within 2 months |
