Long-term investors looking forways to profit from the reopening economyshould stay away.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":488,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3581985274026406","authorId":"3581985274026406","name":"Skai","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/895ee4bbfa814435328502a50bbee0a7","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3581985274026406","authorIdStr":"3581985274026406"},"content":"Yes because they are fool.

It's gone from teetering on the brink of bankruptcy in early January to being valued at $23 billion, as of business close on July 7.</p>\n<p>At the heart of this rally are AMC's passionate army of retail investors, collectively known as \"apes\" -- an homage to <i>Rise of the Planet of the Apes</i>, where leader Caesar infers that apes are stronger together. This might sound like a feel-good story whereby retail is finally exacting its revenge on Wall Street, but the reality is that AMC has become a battleground pump-and-dump scheme driven higher almost entirely by the misinformation and lies spread by its retail investors.</p>\n<p>While I've previously covered some aspects of the misinformation campaign used as the foundation for the rally in AMC's stock, below are the eight most pervasive lies that have fueled this pump-and-dump scheme.</p>\n<h2>Lie No. 1: Hedge fund short-selling bankrupts companies</h2>\n<p>The whopper of all lies exchanged on message boards and via YouTube is the idea that hedge fund short-selling is somehow responsible for bankrupting businesses.</p>\n<p>The reality is that the operating performance of a company determines whether or not it thrives or goes under. There are plenty of companies whose share prices are under $1 that aren't bankrupt, and there are companies with share prices north of $1 that ultimately file for bankruptcy protection. Investors who choose to buy or short-sell stock are simply betting on an outcome. They don't control or influence how well or poorly the underlying business performs.</p>\n<p>Put another way, if I buy $1 billion worth of <b>Apple</b>&nbsp;stock tomorrow, I might help lift its share price, but I've not improved its sales or profit potential <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> iota. Likewise, if I short-sell Apple's stock tomorrow, I haven't hurt its sales potential or profitability at all. Why would this hypothetical scenario be any different with AMC? Hint: It's not.</p>\n<h2>Lie No. 2: Shorts have to cover</h2>\n<p>Another dose of misinformation from AMC's apes is that short sellers of the stock have to cover. Specifically, apes are implying that there's some level of urgency here and that the disorder from excessive covering will lead to the \"mother of all short squeezes.\"</p>\n<p>The truth is that short-sellers \"have to cover\" as much as apes \"have\" to sell their position. In other words, short-sellers can cover their position at their leisure.</p>\n<p>What's more, hedge fund assets under management jumped to $4.07 trillion in June 2021, according to BarclayHedge. For short-covering to be disorderly, a massive wave of margin calls would need to come into play. Since the vast majority of hedge funds are diversified, and they have well over $4 trillion in assets in their sails, the chance of a margin call wave forcing short covering is virtually nonexistent.</p>\n<h2>Lie No. 3: The short squeeze is coming/around the corner</h2>\n<p>Just as they teach every salesperson, creating a sense of urgency with customers (i.e., potential new investors) is important. Apes are constantly hyping the idea that a short squeeze is imminent, or at worst right around the corner. Unfortunately, it's been five months since this ongoing claim began making its rounds, and there's nothing these retail folks can say to substantiate it.</p>\n<p>Aside from an institutional investor/hedge fund margin call wave being <i>highly</i> unlikely, history has also showed that short squeeze candidates have a poor track record of success. Earlier this year, I looked at the trailing three-month returns of 114 stocks with short interest above 20% and a market cap of at least $300 million. Only 9 of 114 stocks had gained 10% or more, while 94 of 114 had a negative three-month return.</p>\n<p>Apes need fresh capital to keep this pump-and-dump scheme going, but the data clearly shows that short squeezes rarely pay off.</p>\n<h2>Lie No. 4: Fundamentals don't matter</h2>\n<p>AMC's retail investors are also quick to dismiss anything having to do with concrete fundamental data. Whether it's the company's operating performance, industry ticket-sale trends, or AMC's balance sheet, they'll proudly proclaim it as FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt) and remind you this isn't a fundamental play. They do this because AMC's operating performance and balance sheet are nothing short of a horror movie, and they damage the misinformation campaign being put forward on social media and YouTube.</p>\n<p>I'll let you in on an investing secret that tenured investors know: Fundamentals always matter. Purposefully telling new investors to ignore fundamentals is like telling a used car buyer not to inspect the engine and just trust that everything is OK.</p>\n<p>For instance, social media was buzzing about <b>Washington Prime Group</b>'s short squeeze potential over the weekend of June 12 and 13. The company filed for bankruptcy protection late Sunday night (June 13), halving investors' stakes the following morning. The engine (fundamentals) drives the car; not the other way around.</p>\n<h2>Lie No. 5: Hedge funds control the mainstream media</h2>\n<p>AMC's apes need to create the impression that anything negative said about their company's stock on television, radio, the internet, or print can't possibly be true, and telling the lie that hedge funds control the mainstream media (MSM) is the easiest way to accomplish that task. Again, this pump-and-dump scam needs fresh capital to keep moving higher, therefore presenting the media as evil is an easy way to try to rally new investors to the retail cause.</p>\n<p>But, as is all-too-common with the ape agenda, it's devoid of fact.</p>\n<p>It just so happens that Harvard University provided a painstakingly thorough look at MSM ownership for 176 of the most influential media companies/outlets in May 2021. The findings? Only five of the 176 outlets are controlled or majority-controlled by private hedge funds. Apes simply hate hearing bad things said about AMC and will go to any lengths necessary to obfuscate those facts, including lying about MSM.</p>\n<h2>Lie No. 6: \"You're obviously short\"</h2>\n<p>To build on the previous point, AMC's impassioned retail investors will also claim inherent ownership biases in the anchors, guests, authors, and so on, who rail against their stock. This is necessary to help recruit fresh capital to their cause by trying to create an \"us vs. them\" mentality.</p>\n<p>To offer an example, I've personally been told on social media many dozens of times that I'm \"obviously short\" or \"clearly losing a lot of money\" because of the journalistic position I've taken on AMC. While I can't speak for any other company, I can proudly claim that my stock holdings are public information, and they're updated daily if I make a move. To boot, article disclosures state any positions I, and my company, have for any stock mentioned. This <i>includes</i> short positions, as well as any options ownership. The icing on the cake is that I also publicly announce my trading activity on <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWTR\">Twitter</a></b>.</p>\n<p>Despite this transparent information, apes constantly and falsely insinuate a financial interest when none exists.</p>\n<h2>Lie No. 7: BlackRock and Vanguard buying AMC stock is bullish</h2>\n<p>This is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> I find particularly amusing, because apes are more than willing to welcome institutional investors with open arms <i>if</i> they happen to own shares of AMC.</p>\n<p>Retail investors regularly use <b>BlackRock</b>'s and Vanguard's ownership of AMC stock as a reason to promote optimism. However, this tells only a fraction of the real story. BlackRock and Vanguard are two of the largest institutional investment firms in the country, based on assets under management. As of their mid-May 13F filings, which detailed their holdings for the first quarter, BlackRock had close to 5,000 positions, with Vanguard chiming in with more than 4,000 positions. During Q1, BlackRock and Vanguard added to more than 3,900 and 3,200 of these stakes, respectively.</p>\n<p>Put another way, BlackRock and Vanguard have so many product offerings that they have a stake in virtually every stock listed in an index. Saying that BlackRock and Vanguard buying AMC is bullish is akin to saying you bought shares of <b>Ford</b>&nbsp;stock because you like red paint.</p>\n<p>As a percentage of shares outstanding, hedge fund <i>and</i> overall institutional ownership in AMC fell during the first quarter from the sequential fourth quarter. That's a fact!</p>\n<h2>Lie No. 8: Apes saved AMC</h2>\n<p>The eighth and final mammoth lie that AMC's retail investors rely on to coerce community compliance and bring in fresh capital is the idea that apes saved AMC. These folks genuinely believe that by purchasing shares of AMC they've somehow saved the company from going bankrupt.</p>\n<p>As I discussed with the first lie on this list, buying and selling stock has absolutely no influence on how well or poorly a company performs from an operating standpoint. Even if apes were to buy every share in existence, AMC could still go bankrupt if its operating performance doesn't improve. And based on its 2027 bonds trading well below par, bondholders aren't convinced that things will improve enough to save the company.</p>\n<p>What really saves companies from bankruptcy is their operating performance and the actions of management. In AMC's case, selling hundreds of millions of shares of stock an issuing high-interest debt last year and in early January gave it the financial lifeline needed to survive the worst of the pandemic. That's not apes saving AMC; that's the company's actions extending a lifeline.</p>\n<p>If anything, apes are purposely harming AMC by tying the hands of CEO Adam Aron and shooting down any additional opportunities for the company to raise capital and shore up its balance sheet.</p>\n<p>If this list of lies shows anything, it's the lengths apes will go to manipulate AMC's share price. However, history is very clear that all pump-and-dump schemes end in disaster. That's not FUD. It's a practical guarantee.</p>\n<p>Caveat emptor.</p>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>8 Lies That Have Fueled the AMC Entertainment Pump-and-Dump Scheme</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n8 Lies That Have Fueled the AMC Entertainment Pump-and-Dump Scheme\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-07-12 21:55 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/07/12/8-lies-that-fueled-the-amc-pump-and-dump-scheme/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>There's arguably been no hotter stock on the planet in 2021 than movie theater chain AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC).

I guess the idea has to have crossed his mind, since it makes a lot of sense as a strategy to - please forgive the expression – turbocharge growth and is achievable, given his company’s market capitalization of about $783 billion. Should he be considering a major automotive acquisition, the most logical candidate for several reasons is General Motors Co.(NYSE:GM).</p>\n<p>He might be considering a non-automotive acquisition, a software or chip manufacturer for example, which would make sense for a maker of increasingly electrified vehicles. The point is that Tesla's immense market capitalization makes it a potential acquirer of all but a few companies.</p>\n<p>What could happen to Tesla's share price in the event of a merger proposal with GM or any other automaker is an important factor for investors to consider. Some Tesla owners no doubt would consider a GM merger a betrayal of Tesla's (and Musk's) electric-only approach to mobility. Skeptics might blanch at the notion of infecting Tesla's nimble (and sometimes incautious) tech culture with GM's slower and risk-averse tendencies. The forces that have propelled Tesla stock skyward could suddenly be turned on their head.</p>\n<p>GM likely would spurn a Tesla proposal to merge, as it has in the past with the Nissan Renault alliance and others. Whether GM could resist Tesla, assuming the latter’s interest was determined, is problematic. The GM board would be legally bound to consider the opportunity to trade GM shares for Tesla at a premium. Such a combination would prove quite attractive to holders of GM stock, which – even considering the latest run-up in its price – isn’t paying a dividend and has managed only 46% since going public in 2010 following bankruptcy reorganization.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/161e940f1ed5288bad479f820e2207ef\" tg-width=\"1777\" tg-height=\"708\"><span>GM stock since 2010 vs SPY and DJIA Source: Yahoo Finance</span></p>\n<p><b>Both sides potentially benefit</b></p>\n<p>A practical combination of the two companies isn’t too hard to visualize, though their histories and profiles are dissimilar:</p>\n<ul>\n <li>Tesla a Silicon Valley startup barely twenty years old and GM a century-old incumbent;</li>\n <li>Tesla the fake-it-till-you-make-it, software-heavy enemy of fossil fuels; GM, an engineering and manufacturing giant that depends on sales of gas-consuming pickup trucks and SUVs while pivoting recently toward an all-EV future;</li>\n <li>Tesla, which distributes vehicles directly to consumers without spending a penny on advertising; GM, which maintains a network of franchised dealers and spent roughly $3 billion in advertising in 2019, according to Statista.</li>\n <li>Finally, non-union Tesla in contrast to GM, whose relationship with the United Auto Workers has been marked by conflict – a 40-day strike in 2019 that cost the company $4 billion the latest example.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Yet GM has assets that could pay off immediately for Tesla, notably a worldwide manufacturing and components infrastructure capable of building upwards of 8 million vehicles a year. GM can be fairly criticized for its slowness to recognize consumer trends and its mediocre marketing initiatives – but no one can fault GM for its expertise in high-quality, swift mass manufacture of vehicles. By merging GM into its operations, Tesla would instantly acquire some of the best factories in the world and a production capacity that could immediately vault it to the front rank of global automakers. GM’s new Ultium battery venture with South Korea’s LG Chem is about to supply the power source for 20 new GM EVs through 2025. A strategic review would sort out which vehicles would be sold as Teslas, which as Chevrolets – and perhaps which GM brands might be phased out.</p>\n<p>GM’s highly profitable gasoline-powered trucks and SUVs, and the enormous cash flow they generate, will be around for a long time. Musk may be an enemy of fossil fuels; his practical financial side would tell him that until EV pickups prove popular to everyday consumers as well as to carpenters and ranchers, Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra and their SUV counterparts will maintain their status as key products. But perhaps a new luxury division could emerge combining future Cadillac EVs with the high-end Teslas like the Model S that have proven to be status symbols among affluent consumers but are now outdated.</p>\n<p>Undeniably, Tesla has evolved into an exceptionally powerful global brand. A decade ago, I was among the naysayers who believed that the company eventually was likely to fail or to be snapped up by a larger competitor. I’ve moved to neutral: Over the past ten years, Musk has proven a remarkably influential figure in high tech, able to command the allegiance of investors and customers in the same way that the late Steve Jobs and Bill Gates did in their time. Yes, he’s missed many of his stated forecasts for the number of vehicles he will build and sell; and, yes, some of his shenanigans with regard to social media and infractions of securities regulations have raised legitimate worries about his stability. Yet what Tesla has managed to achieve – more than one million EVs built and sold through March of 2020 – stands as a testament to corporate tenacity as well as a harbinger of EVs growing role in mobility.</p>\n<p>Tesla operates an antiquated former GM assembly plant in Fremont, California and a new assembly plant in Shanghai, with another under construction in Berlin and one planned for Austin, Texas.</p>\n<p><b>EVs are a game of capital</b></p>\n<p>Tesla’s extraordinary ability to raise capital hasn’t gone unnoticed at GM headquarters, which has taken steps toward adopting the smaller rival’s EV strategy as its own. In 2017, CEO Mary Barra unveiled the three zeros: “zero crashes, zero emissions, zero congestion,” a slogan signaling GM’s shift toward EVs as well as to autonomous driving. It was a signal that GM recognized the world was heading toward a future for mobility that Tesla – and others, like Google(NASDAQ:GOOG)(NASDAQ:GOOGL)- were helping to define. The No. 1 automaker in the U.S., in terms of sales, also realizes that its identity and legacy are no longer the advantage that they once were. A few weeks ago, GM unveiled a new corporate logo, meant to resonate with younger, more connected audience. GM’s Cruise autonomous driving unit has maintained distance from the majority-owning parent corporation, taking up residence in San Francisco and seeking capital investment from outside GM. Equity analysts have wondered aloud whether GM is considering a spinoff of Cruise, a possibility that Barra hasn’t ruled out.</p>\n<p><b>GM is no basket case</b></p>\n<p>While GM engineers work to develop better, cheaper, smaller batteries to make EV more practical for mainstream buyers, the ability to raise massive amounts of capital give Tesla one sizable advantage over its larger rival: staying power. The reason for GM’s recent rise in stock price, after a long decade in the doldrums, may have to do with the automaker’s having proved it was able to withstand 2020’s 12% drop in U.S. vehicle sales, brought on by the pandemic, without heavy additional borrowing. Following bankruptcy, some equity analysts said GM must prove it could weather a sales downturn without suffering a credit crisis.</p>\n<p>Another possible reason for interest in GM stock is the realization that the automaker is making a $27 billion bet on EVs that could pay off if the mass market quickly adopts the technology.</p>\n<p>A merger with GM would bring less obvious benefits to Tesla: A worldwide dealer network that would be only too pleased to service Tesla vehicles as they develop their own electrification tools and know-how. Also: OnStar, GM’s over-the-air safety and convenience feature. GM’s parts depots, supply network and supplier relationships.</p>\n<p>The tie-up of these two companies under the Tesla corporate umbrella, with GM advancing toward an electrified, self-driving future, could be a formidable powerhouse rewarding shareholders, customers, dealers and the global policymakers that are encouraging and dictating the curtailment of fossil fuels.</p>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

I guess the idea has to have crossed his mind, since it makes a lot of sense as a strategy to - please forgive the expression – turbocharge growth and is achievable, given his company’s market capitalization of about $783 billion. Should he be considering a major automotive acquisition, the most logical candidate for several reasons is General Motors Co.(NYSE:GM).\nHe might be considering a non-automotive acquisition, a software or chip manufacturer for example, which would make sense for a maker of increasingly electrified vehicles. The point is that Tesla's immense market capitalization makes it a potential acquirer of all but a few companies.\nWhat could happen to Tesla's share price in the event of a merger proposal with GM or any other automaker is an important factor for investors to consider. Some Tesla owners no doubt would consider a GM merger a betrayal of Tesla's (and Musk's) electric-only approach to mobility. Skeptics might blanch at the notion of infecting Tesla's nimble (and sometimes incautious) tech culture with GM's slower and risk-averse tendencies. The forces that have propelled Tesla stock skyward could suddenly be turned on their head.\nGM likely would spurn a Tesla proposal to merge, as it has in the past with the Nissan Renault alliance and others. Whether GM could resist Tesla, assuming the latter’s interest was determined, is problematic. The GM board would be legally bound to consider the opportunity to trade GM shares for Tesla at a premium. Such a combination would prove quite attractive to holders of GM stock, which – even considering the latest run-up in its price – isn’t paying a dividend and has managed only 46% since going public in 2010 following bankruptcy reorganization.\nGM stock since 2010 vs SPY and DJIA Source: Yahoo Finance\nBoth sides potentially benefit\nA practical combination of the two companies isn’t too hard to visualize, though their histories and profiles are dissimilar:\n\nTesla a Silicon Valley startup barely twenty years old and GM a century-old incumbent;\nTesla the fake-it-till-you-make-it, software-heavy enemy of fossil fuels; GM, an engineering and manufacturing giant that depends on sales of gas-consuming pickup trucks and SUVs while pivoting recently toward an all-EV future;\nTesla, which distributes vehicles directly to consumers without spending a penny on advertising; GM, which maintains a network of franchised dealers and spent roughly $3 billion in advertising in 2019, according to Statista.\nFinally, non-union Tesla in contrast to GM, whose relationship with the United Auto Workers has been marked by conflict – a 40-day strike in 2019 that cost the company $4 billion the latest example.\n\nYet GM has assets that could pay off immediately for Tesla, notably a worldwide manufacturing and components infrastructure capable of building upwards of 8 million vehicles a year. GM can be fairly criticized for its slowness to recognize consumer trends and its mediocre marketing initiatives – but no one can fault GM for its expertise in high-quality, swift mass manufacture of vehicles. By merging GM into its operations, Tesla would instantly acquire some of the best factories in the world and a production capacity that could immediately vault it to the front rank of global automakers. GM’s new Ultium battery venture with South Korea’s LG Chem is about to supply the power source for 20 new GM EVs through 2025. A strategic review would sort out which vehicles would be sold as Teslas, which as Chevrolets – and perhaps which GM brands might be phased out.\nGM’s highly profitable gasoline-powered trucks and SUVs, and the enormous cash flow they generate, will be around for a long time. Musk may be an enemy of fossil fuels; his practical financial side would tell him that until EV pickups prove popular to everyday consumers as well as to carpenters and ranchers, Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra and their SUV counterparts will maintain their status as key products. But perhaps a new luxury division could emerge combining future Cadillac EVs with the high-end Teslas like the Model S that have proven to be status symbols among affluent consumers but are now outdated.\nUndeniably, Tesla has evolved into an exceptionally powerful global brand. A decade ago, I was among the naysayers who believed that the company eventually was likely to fail or to be snapped up by a larger competitor. I’ve moved to neutral: Over the past ten years, Musk has proven a remarkably influential figure in high tech, able to command the allegiance of investors and customers in the same way that the late Steve Jobs and Bill Gates did in their time. Yes, he’s missed many of his stated forecasts for the number of vehicles he will build and sell; and, yes, some of his shenanigans with regard to social media and infractions of securities regulations have raised legitimate worries about his stability. Yet what Tesla has managed to achieve – more than one million EVs built and sold through March of 2020 – stands as a testament to corporate tenacity as well as a harbinger of EVs growing role in mobility.\nTesla operates an antiquated former GM assembly plant in Fremont, California and a new assembly plant in Shanghai, with another under construction in Berlin and one planned for Austin, Texas.\nEVs are a game of capital\nTesla’s extraordinary ability to raise capital hasn’t gone unnoticed at GM headquarters, which has taken steps toward adopting the smaller rival’s EV strategy as its own. In 2017, CEO Mary Barra unveiled the three zeros: “zero crashes, zero emissions, zero congestion,” a slogan signaling GM’s shift toward EVs as well as to autonomous driving. It was a signal that GM recognized the world was heading toward a future for mobility that Tesla – and others, like Google(NASDAQ:GOOG)(NASDAQ:GOOGL)- were helping to define. The No. 1 automaker in the U.S., in terms of sales, also realizes that its identity and legacy are no longer the advantage that they once were. A few weeks ago, GM unveiled a new corporate logo, meant to resonate with younger, more connected audience. GM’s Cruise autonomous driving unit has maintained distance from the majority-owning parent corporation, taking up residence in San Francisco and seeking capital investment from outside GM. Equity analysts have wondered aloud whether GM is considering a spinoff of Cruise, a possibility that Barra hasn’t ruled out.\nGM is no basket case\nWhile GM engineers work to develop better, cheaper, smaller batteries to make EV more practical for mainstream buyers, the ability to raise massive amounts of capital give Tesla one sizable advantage over its larger rival: staying power. The reason for GM’s recent rise in stock price, after a long decade in the doldrums, may have to do with the automaker’s having proved it was able to withstand 2020’s 12% drop in U.S. vehicle sales, brought on by the pandemic, without heavy additional borrowing. Following bankruptcy, some equity analysts said GM must prove it could weather a sales downturn without suffering a credit crisis.\nAnother possible reason for interest in GM stock is the realization that the automaker is making a $27 billion bet on EVs that could pay off if the mass market quickly adopts the technology.\nA merger with GM would bring less obvious benefits to Tesla: A worldwide dealer network that would be only too pleased to service Tesla vehicles as they develop their own electrification tools and know-how. Also: OnStar, GM’s over-the-air safety and convenience feature. GM’s parts depots, supply network and supplier relationships.\nThe tie-up of these two companies under the Tesla corporate umbrella, with GM advancing toward an electrified, self-driving future, could be a formidable powerhouse rewarding shareholders, customers, dealers and the global policymakers that are encouraging and dictating the curtailment of fossil fuels.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":158,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":144688159,"gmtCreate":1626279912671,"gmtModify":1703757119431,"author":{"id":"3570262317958188","authorId":"3570262317958188","name":"hold住姐","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1e0f4a1ee1426ea239e4dd2ca6b23b38","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3570262317958188","authorIdStr":"3570262317958188"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMC\">$AMC Entertainment(AMC)$</a>buy to sell ratio is 2:1 but price still drops, dark pool trading accounts for more than 50% of trading volume.

It's gone from teetering on the brink of bankruptcy in early January to being valued at $23 billion, as of business close on July 7.</p>\n<p>At the heart of this rally are AMC's passionate army of retail investors, collectively known as \"apes\" -- an homage to <i>Rise of the Planet of the Apes</i>, where leader Caesar infers that apes are stronger together. This might sound like a feel-good story whereby retail is finally exacting its revenge on Wall Street, but the reality is that AMC has become a battleground pump-and-dump scheme driven higher almost entirely by the misinformation and lies spread by its retail investors.</p>\n<p>While I've previously covered some aspects of the misinformation campaign used as the foundation for the rally in AMC's stock, below are the eight most pervasive lies that have fueled this pump-and-dump scheme.</p>\n<h2>Lie No. 1: Hedge fund short-selling bankrupts companies</h2>\n<p>The whopper of all lies exchanged on message boards and via YouTube is the idea that hedge fund short-selling is somehow responsible for bankrupting businesses.</p>\n<p>The reality is that the operating performance of a company determines whether or not it thrives or goes under. There are plenty of companies whose share prices are under $1 that aren't bankrupt, and there are companies with share prices north of $1 that ultimately file for bankruptcy protection. Investors who choose to buy or short-sell stock are simply betting on an outcome. They don't control or influence how well or poorly the underlying business performs.</p>\n<p>Put another way, if I buy $1 billion worth of <b>Apple</b>&nbsp;stock tomorrow, I might help lift its share price, but I've not improved its sales or profit potential <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE\">one</a> iota. Likewise, if I short-sell Apple's stock tomorrow, I haven't hurt its sales potential or profitability at all. Why would this hypothetical scenario be any different with AMC? Hint: It's not.</p>\n<h2>Lie No. 2: Shorts have to cover</h2>\n<p>Another dose of misinformation from AMC's apes is that short sellers of the stock have to cover. Specifically, apes are implying that there's some level of urgency here and that the disorder from excessive covering will lead to the \"mother of all short squeezes.\"</p>\n<p>The truth is that short-sellers \"have to cover\" as much as apes \"have\" to sell their position. In other words, short-sellers can cover their position at their leisure.</p>\n<p>What's more, hedge fund assets under management jumped to $4.07 trillion in June 2021, according to BarclayHedge. For short-covering to be disorderly, a massive wave of margin calls would need to come into play. Since the vast majority of hedge funds are diversified, and they have well over $4 trillion in assets in their sails, the chance of a margin call wave forcing short covering is virtually nonexistent.</p>\n<h2>Lie No. 3: The short squeeze is coming/around the corner</h2>\n<p>Just as they teach every salesperson, creating a sense of urgency with customers (i.e., potential new investors) is important. Apes are constantly hyping the idea that a short squeeze is imminent, or at worst right around the corner. Unfortunately, it's been five months since this ongoing claim began making its rounds, and there's nothing these retail folks can say to substantiate it.</p>\n<p>Aside from an institutional investor/hedge fund margin call wave being <i>highly</i> unlikely, history has also showed that short squeeze candidates have a poor track record of success. Earlier this year, I looked at the trailing three-month returns of 114 stocks with short interest above 20% and a market cap of at least $300 million. Only 9 of 114 stocks had gained 10% or more, while 94 of 114 had a negative three-month return.</p>\n<p>Apes need fresh capital to keep this pump-and-dump scheme going, but the data clearly shows that short squeezes rarely pay off.</p>\n<h2>Lie No. 4: Fundamentals don't matter</h2>\n<p>AMC's retail investors are also quick to dismiss anything having to do with concrete fundamental data. Whether it's the company's operating performance, industry ticket-sale trends, or AMC's balance sheet, they'll proudly proclaim it as FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt) and remind you this isn't a fundamental play. They do this because AMC's operating performance and balance sheet are nothing short of a horror movie, and they damage the misinformation campaign being put forward on social media and YouTube.</p>\n<p>I'll let you in on an investing secret that tenured investors know: Fundamentals always matter. Purposefully telling new investors to ignore fundamentals is like telling a used car buyer not to inspect the engine and just trust that everything is OK.</p>\n<p>For instance, social media was buzzing about <b>Washington Prime Group</b>'s short squeeze potential over the weekend of June 12 and 13. The company filed for bankruptcy protection late Sunday night (June 13), halving investors' stakes the following morning. The engine (fundamentals) drives the car; not the other way around.</p>\n<h2>Lie No. 5: Hedge funds control the mainstream media</h2>\n<p>AMC's apes need to create the impression that anything negative said about their company's stock on television, radio, the internet, or print can't possibly be true, and telling the lie that hedge funds control the mainstream media (MSM) is the easiest way to accomplish that task. Again, this pump-and-dump scam needs fresh capital to keep moving higher, therefore presenting the media as evil is an easy way to try to rally new investors to the retail cause.</p>\n<p>But, as is all-too-common with the ape agenda, it's devoid of fact.</p>\n<p>It just so happens that Harvard University provided a painstakingly thorough look at MSM ownership for 176 of the most influential media companies/outlets in May 2021. The findings? Only five of the 176 outlets are controlled or majority-controlled by private hedge funds. Apes simply hate hearing bad things said about AMC and will go to any lengths necessary to obfuscate those facts, including lying about MSM.</p>\n<h2>Lie No. 6: \"You're obviously short\"</h2>\n<p>To build on the previous point, AMC's impassioned retail investors will also claim inherent ownership biases in the anchors, guests, authors, and so on, who rail against their stock. This is necessary to help recruit fresh capital to their cause by trying to create an \"us vs. them\" mentality.</p>\n<p>To offer an example, I've personally been told on social media many dozens of times that I'm \"obviously short\" or \"clearly losing a lot of money\" because of the journalistic position I've taken on AMC. While I can't speak for any other company, I can proudly claim that my stock holdings are public information, and they're updated daily if I make a move. To boot, article disclosures state any positions I, and my company, have for any stock mentioned. This <i>includes</i> short positions, as well as any options ownership. The icing on the cake is that I also publicly announce my trading activity on <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWTR\">Twitter</a></b>.</p>\n<p>Despite this transparent information, apes constantly and falsely insinuate a financial interest when none exists.</p>\n<h2>Lie No. 7: BlackRock and Vanguard buying AMC stock is bullish</h2>\n<p>This is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> I find particularly amusing, because apes are more than willing to welcome institutional investors with open arms <i>if</i> they happen to own shares of AMC.</p>\n<p>Retail investors regularly use <b>BlackRock</b>'s and Vanguard's ownership of AMC stock as a reason to promote optimism. However, this tells only a fraction of the real story. BlackRock and Vanguard are two of the largest institutional investment firms in the country, based on assets under management. As of their mid-May 13F filings, which detailed their holdings for the first quarter, BlackRock had close to 5,000 positions, with Vanguard chiming in with more than 4,000 positions. During Q1, BlackRock and Vanguard added to more than 3,900 and 3,200 of these stakes, respectively.</p>\n<p>Put another way, BlackRock and Vanguard have so many product offerings that they have a stake in virtually every stock listed in an index. Saying that BlackRock and Vanguard buying AMC is bullish is akin to saying you bought shares of <b>Ford</b>&nbsp;stock because you like red paint.</p>\n<p>As a percentage of shares outstanding, hedge fund <i>and</i> overall institutional ownership in AMC fell during the first quarter from the sequential fourth quarter. That's a fact!</p>\n<h2>Lie No. 8: Apes saved AMC</h2>\n<p>The eighth and final mammoth lie that AMC's retail investors rely on to coerce community compliance and bring in fresh capital is the idea that apes saved AMC.

It's gone from teetering on the brink of bankruptcy in early January to being valued at $23 billion, as of business close on July 7.\nAt the heart of this rally are AMC's passionate army of retail investors, collectively known as \"apes\" -- an homage to Rise of the Planet of the Apes, where leader Caesar infers that apes are stronger together. This might sound like a feel-good story whereby retail is finally exacting its revenge on Wall Street, but the reality is that AMC has become a battleground pump-and-dump scheme driven higher almost entirely by the misinformation and lies spread by its retail investors.\nWhile I've previously covered some aspects of the misinformation campaign used as the foundation for the rally in AMC's stock, below are the eight most pervasive lies that have fueled this pump-and-dump scheme.\nLie No. 1: Hedge fund short-selling bankrupts companies\nThe whopper of all lies exchanged on message boards and via YouTube is the idea that hedge fund short-selling is somehow responsible for bankrupting businesses.\nThe reality is that the operating performance of a company determines whether or not it thrives or goes under. There are plenty of companies whose share prices are under $1 that aren't bankrupt, and there are companies with share prices north of $1 that ultimately file for bankruptcy protection. Investors who choose to buy or short-sell stock are simply betting on an outcome. They don't control or influence how well or poorly the underlying business performs.\nPut another way, if I buy $1 billion worth of Apple stock tomorrow, I might help lift its share price, but I've not improved its sales or profit potential one iota. Likewise, if I short-sell Apple's stock tomorrow, I haven't hurt its sales potential or profitability at all. Why would this hypothetical scenario be any different with AMC? Hint: It's not.\nLie No. 2: Shorts have to cover\nAnother dose of misinformation from AMC's apes is that short sellers of the stock have to cover. Specifically, apes are implying that there's some level of urgency here and that the disorder from excessive covering will lead to the \"mother of all short squeezes.\"\nThe truth is that short-sellers \"have to cover\" as much as apes \"have\" to sell their position. In other words, short-sellers can cover their position at their leisure.\nWhat's more, hedge fund assets under management jumped to $4.07 trillion in June 2021, according to BarclayHedge. For short-covering to be disorderly, a massive wave of margin calls would need to come into play. Since the vast majority of hedge funds are diversified, and they have well over $4 trillion in assets in their sails, the chance of a margin call wave forcing short covering is virtually nonexistent.\nLie No. 3: The short squeeze is coming/around the corner\nJust as they teach every salesperson, creating a sense of urgency with customers (i.e., potential new investors) is important. Apes are constantly hyping the idea that a short squeeze is imminent, or at worst right around the corner. Unfortunately, it's been five months since this ongoing claim began making its rounds, and there's nothing these retail folks can say to substantiate it.\nAside from an institutional investor/hedge fund margin call wave being highly unlikely, history has also showed that short squeeze candidates have a poor track record of success. Earlier this year, I looked at the trailing three-month returns of 114 stocks with short interest above 20% and a market cap of at least $300 million. Only 9 of 114 stocks had gained 10% or more, while 94 of 114 had a negative three-month return.\nApes need fresh capital to keep this pump-and-dump scheme going, but the data clearly shows that short squeezes rarely pay off.\nLie No. 4: Fundamentals don't matter\nAMC's retail investors are also quick to dismiss anything having to do with concrete fundamental data. Whether it's the company's operating performance, industry ticket-sale trends, or AMC's balance sheet, they'll proudly proclaim it as FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt) and remind you this isn't a fundamental play. They do this because AMC's operating performance and balance sheet are nothing short of a horror movie, and they damage the misinformation campaign being put forward on social media and YouTube.\nI'll let you in on an investing secret that tenured investors know: Fundamentals always matter. Purposefully telling new investors to ignore fundamentals is like telling a used car buyer not to inspect the engine and just trust that everything is OK.\nFor instance, social media was buzzing about Washington Prime Group's short squeeze potential over the weekend of June 12 and 13. The company filed for bankruptcy protection late Sunday night (June 13), halving investors' stakes the following morning. The engine (fundamentals) drives the car; not the other way around.\nLie No. 5: Hedge funds control the mainstream media\nAMC's apes need to create the impression that anything negative said about their company's stock on television, radio, the internet, or print can't possibly be true, and telling the lie that hedge funds control the mainstream media (MSM) is the easiest way to accomplish that task. Again, this pump-and-dump scam needs fresh capital to keep moving higher, therefore presenting the media as evil is an easy way to try to rally new investors to the retail cause.\nBut, as is all-too-common with the ape agenda, it's devoid of fact.\nIt just so happens that Harvard University provided a painstakingly thorough look at MSM ownership for 176 of the most influential media companies/outlets in May 2021. The findings? Only five of the 176 outlets are controlled or majority-controlled by private hedge funds. Apes simply hate hearing bad things said about AMC and will go to any lengths necessary to obfuscate those facts, including lying about MSM.\nLie No. 6: \"You're obviously short\"\nTo build on the previous point, AMC's impassioned retail investors will also claim inherent ownership biases in the anchors, guests, authors, and so on, who rail against their stock. This is necessary to help recruit fresh capital to their cause by trying to create an \"us vs. them\" mentality.\nTo offer an example, I've personally been told on social media many dozens of times that I'm \"obviously short\" or \"clearly losing a lot of money\" because of the journalistic position I've taken on AMC. While I can't speak for any other company, I can proudly claim that my stock holdings are public information, and they're updated daily if I make a move. To boot, article disclosures state any positions I, and my company, have for any stock mentioned. This includes short positions, as well as any options ownership. The icing on the cake is that I also publicly announce my trading activity on Twitter.\nDespite this transparent information, apes constantly and falsely insinuate a financial interest when none exists.\nLie No. 7: BlackRock and Vanguard buying AMC stock is bullish\nThis is one I find particularly amusing, because apes are more than willing to welcome institutional investors with open arms if they happen to own shares of AMC.\nRetail investors regularly use BlackRock's and Vanguard's ownership of AMC stock as a reason to promote optimism. However, this tells only a fraction of the real story. BlackRock and Vanguard are two of the largest institutional investment firms in the country, based on assets under management. As of their mid-May 13F filings, which detailed their holdings for the first quarter, BlackRock had close to 5,000 positions, with Vanguard chiming in with more than 4,000 positions. During Q1, BlackRock and Vanguard added to more than 3,900 and 3,200 of these stakes, respectively.\nPut another way, BlackRock and Vanguard have so many product offerings that they have a stake in virtually every stock listed in an index. Saying that BlackRock and Vanguard buying AMC is bullish is akin to saying you bought shares of Ford stock because you like red paint.\nAs a percentage of shares outstanding, hedge fund and overall institutional ownership in AMC fell during the first quarter from the sequential fourth quarter. That's a fact!\nLie No. 8: Apes saved AMC\nThe eighth and final mammoth lie that AMC's retail investors rely on to coerce community compliance and bring in fresh capital is the idea that apes saved AMC. These folks genuinely believe that by purchasing shares of AMC they've somehow saved the company from going bankrupt.\nAs I discussed with the first lie on this list, buying and selling stock has absolutely no influence on how well or poorly a company performs from an operating standpoint. Even if apes were to buy every share in existence, AMC could still go bankrupt if its operating performance doesn't improve. And based on its 2027 bonds trading well below par, bondholders aren't convinced that things will improve enough to save the company.\nWhat really saves companies from bankruptcy is their operating performance and the actions of management. In AMC's case, selling hundreds of millions of shares of stock an issuing high-interest debt last year and in early January gave it the financial lifeline needed to survive the worst of the pandemic. That's not apes saving AMC; that's the company's actions extending a lifeline.\nIf anything, apes are purposely harming AMC by tying the hands of CEO Adam Aron and shooting down any additional opportunities for the company to raise capital and shore up its balance sheet.\nIf this list of lies shows anything, it's the lengths apes will go to manipulate AMC's share price. However, history is very clear that all pump-and-dump schemes end in disaster. That's not FUD. It's a practical guarantee.\nCaveat emptor.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":538,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3581985274026406","authorId":"3581985274026406","name":"Skai","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/895ee4bbfa814435328502a50bbee0a7","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3581985274026406","authorIdStr":"3581985274026406"},"content":"Haha.
