Can't say I have any desire to go to the movies these days and be cramed in with a bunch of strangers. Would rather watch at home on a nice big ntv.

Since most of its costs are fixed, getting viewers in attendance generates positive cash flow for AMC even if it remains in negative net-income territory.\nOn average, an AMC moviegoer spends 72% of the price of a ticket on food and beverage. Add in the fact that AMC makes more in operating profit from viewers buying food and beverage than it does from ticket sales, and AMC could be generating positive cash flow from operations by the end of the second quarter. That is, of course, if there are no further disruptions from a resurgence of coronavirus cases.\nThe increase in cash flow, combined with the $1.246 billion in equity capital it has raised in recent months, should go a long way toward shoring up AMC's balance sheet and giving the battered movie theater chain more time to recover from the devastations of the coronavirus pandemic. And that should give the millions of retail investors rooting for the success of AMC stock something to cheer about.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":185755961,"gmtCreate":1623675300853,"gmtModify":1704208346547,"author":{"id":"3570807817840093","authorId":"3570807817840093","authorIdStr":"3570807817840093","name":"BlackJesus","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2534cc0d2f43e74926fa9e2c27e6a4fb","vip":1,"hat":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b0a2963eb37c60c5d6d4a8dbcd266952","crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"idStr":"3570807817840093"},"htmlText":"Lets goooo","listText":"Lets goooo","text":"Lets goooo","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/185755961","repostId":2142788457,"repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2142788457","pubTimestamp":1623506400,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2142788457?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-12 22:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"The Summer Movie Season Is Underway: Why That's Good News for AMC Stock","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2142788457","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"AMC is best known for its part in the meme stock-trading frenzy, but its business is slowly recovering.","content":"<p><b>AMC</b> <b>Entertainment</b> (NYSE:AMC) stock has experienced some violent price movements in the last several months -- its price recently came close to doubling in a single day.
