With the stock having climbed as much as 25-fold in January, it has drawn the attention of numerous investors. However, this interest has also brought unprecedented volatility and massive price swings. Given the company's business, its financials, and the speculative nature of the retail stock, investors should think twice about opening a position.</p>\n<p><b>1. GameStop's business</b></p>\n<p>GameStop built a nationwide footprint by becoming a place to buy the latest video game releases. It also made itself a hub where people could buy, sell, and trade games, consoles, and accessories, and find other merchandise. That model made it a successful company until game makers began to sell their games via online downloads. With that change, GameStop lost much of its reason for being, sending the company's fortune and its stock plunging.</p>\n<p>These struggles have also affected GameStop's top management. In February alone, the company appointed a new chief technology officer, and the chief financial officer announced that he would resign in March.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F615635%2Fgettyimages-157305426.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images</p>\n<p>Amid this turmoil, GameStop has moved much of its operations online and taken an omnichannel approach. The company closed over 800 stores between the beginning of 2019 and the first nine months of 2020, quite a change for a company with over 5,000 locations.&nbsp;It also expanded product and category extensions such as comics and other types of collectibles to increase the size of its addressable market. On the video gaming side of the business, this included a \"digital-first\" approach for game downloads. The company also increased fulfillment options to deliver the most comprehensive set of game options delivered in the fastest way possible.</p>\n<p>However, while these moves may help the company to survive, they also leave GameStop with a narrow competitive moat. Physical games and other items to sell or trade gave gamers a reason to visit stores. Now, game downloads leave little room for differentiation or trades. Also, it remains unclear whether customers will turn to GameStop for its new product categories.</p>\n<p><b>2.

With the stock having climbed as much as 25-fold in January, it has drawn the attention of numerous investors. However, this interest has also brought unprecedented volatility and massive price swings. Given the company's business, its financials, and the speculative nature of the retail stock, investors should think twice about opening a position.\n1. GameStop's business\nGameStop built a nationwide footprint by becoming a place to buy the latest video game releases. It also made itself a hub where people could buy, sell, and trade games, consoles, and accessories, and find other merchandise. That model made it a successful company until game makers began to sell their games via online downloads. With that change, GameStop lost much of its reason for being, sending the company's fortune and its stock plunging.\nThese struggles have also affected GameStop's top management. In February alone, the company appointed a new chief technology officer, and the chief financial officer announced that he would resign in March.\n\nImage source: Getty Images\nAmid this turmoil, GameStop has moved much of its operations online and taken an omnichannel approach. The company closed over 800 stores between the beginning of 2019 and the first nine months of 2020, quite a change for a company with over 5,000 locations. It also expanded product and category extensions such as comics and other types of collectibles to increase the size of its addressable market. On the video gaming side of the business, this included a \"digital-first\" approach for game downloads. The company also increased fulfillment options to deliver the most comprehensive set of game options delivered in the fastest way possible.\nHowever, while these moves may help the company to survive, they also leave GameStop with a narrow competitive moat. Physical games and other items to sell or trade gave gamers a reason to visit stores. Now, game downloads leave little room for differentiation or trades. Also, it remains unclear whether customers will turn to GameStop for its new product categories.\n2. The company's financials\nMoreover, even with its new strategy, the company's financials still reflect the extent of GameStop's struggles. Yes, in the most recent earnings report, online sales rose by 257% year over year in the third quarter. E-commerce also experienced a 352% increase in November from year-ago levels.

Seeing a potential opportunity, some investors began to buy.\nThis led to a run-up in the stock to record levels.

Recently, GameStop stock just exploded higher as another surge past $100 per share begins.\n\nGME data by YCharts\nUnfortunately, this picture would likely change should speculators lose interest in GameStop.

Investors tend to buy stocks because they expect higher returns, not merely because a company finds a way to survive. For this reason, an end to the speculation will probably not bode well for GameStop stock.\nWhere GameStop goes from here\nGameStop remains a retailer in decline.

The&nbsp;New York Times&nbsp;noted the same datamore than two weeks later, which, as it turns out, was just after individual investors’ trading activity appeared to peak, according to the J.P. Morgan report lead-authored by Nikolaos Panigirtzgolou.</p>\n<p>While fund buying has been strong,small trades in call options(10 contracts or less) have fallen off sharply from their peak in January, according to Options Clearing data cited by the bank. At the same time, a basket of stocks favored on retail trading platforms such as Robinhood has been moving sideways overall while theS&amp;P 500has continued to rise to records.</p>\n<p>Meanwhile, retail flows into U.S. equities and exchange-traded funds have fallen to a five-day average of $380 million, based on estimates from J.P. Morgan’s global quantitative and derivatives strategy team. That’s down from the peak of $670 million a day in the five days ended March 16, but still above the 12-month daily average of $250 million.</p>\n<p>This marks a switch back to individuals’ preference to their pre-pandemic buying of traditional equity funds from single stocks and options. Stock ETFs drew $199 billion in the first quarter, compared with $231.8 billion for all of 2020, according toMorningstar.</p>\n<p>Why the switch back from stocks to funds? Here are a few guesses. Americans are getting back to work, as evidenced by the 916,000 jump in nonfarm payrolls in March reported last week. That would leave people with less time to play the market but still wanting to invest via ETFs. Or maybe some of them got caught up in their brackets for NCAA basketball March Madness. Or perhaps some saw their previous gains slip away as the favorite meme stocks rolled over.</p>\n<p>Whatever avenue they took, U.S. investors are fully invested in the stock market based on several other indicators cited by the bank. Equity holdings of hybrid mutual funds have rebounded to over 60%, in line with highs at previous market peaks in 2018, 2007, and 2000. U.S. households’ equity allocations of their financial assets are also at a record, according to the latest Federal Reserve data, topping the 2000 dot-com era peak. Meanwhile, net margin debt also is elevated by historical standards.</p>\n<p>Taking into account those three factors, “there appears clear evidence of elevated equity positioning by retail investors and thus a vulnerability for the equity market going forward,” the report said. When the public is all-in, that’s a signal for contrarians to take some chips off the table.</p>","source":"lsy1601382232898","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>The GameStop Frenzy Appears to be Over.

That’s down from the peak of $670 million a day in the five days ended March 16, but still above the 12-month daily average of $250 million.\nThis marks a switch back to individuals’ preference to their pre-pandemic buying of traditional equity funds from single stocks and options. Stock ETFs drew $199 billion in the first quarter, compared with $231.8 billion for all of 2020, according toMorningstar.\nWhy the switch back from stocks to funds? Here are a few guesses. Americans are getting back to work, as evidenced by the 916,000 jump in nonfarm payrolls in March reported last week. That would leave people with less time to play the market but still wanting to invest via ETFs. Or maybe some of them got caught up in their brackets for NCAA basketball March Madness. Or perhaps some saw their previous gains slip away as the favorite meme stocks rolled over.\nWhatever avenue they took, U.S. investors are fully invested in the stock market based on several other indicators cited by the bank. Equity holdings of hybrid mutual funds have rebounded to over 60%, in line with highs at previous market peaks in 2018, 2007, and 2000. U.S. households’ equity allocations of their financial assets are also at a record, according to the latest Federal Reserve data, topping the 2000 dot-com era peak. Meanwhile, net margin debt also is elevated by historical standards.\nTaking into account those three factors, “there appears clear evidence of elevated equity positioning by retail investors and thus a vulnerability for the equity market going forward,” the report said. When the public is all-in, that’s a signal for contrarians to take some chips off the table.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":303,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":160871788,"gmtCreate":1623787157744,"gmtModify":1703819370767,"author":{"id":"3571697805152180","authorId":"3571697805152180","name":"huhhh","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7a6c4c07dbb528d44299b2cae2830dbc","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3571697805152180","authorIdStr":"3571697805152180"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"holding for my life&nbsp;","listText":"holding for my life&nbsp;","text":"holding for my life","images":[{"img":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ac7e6d45fdff8dca39833568e78d0902","width":"750","height":"2247"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/160871788","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":201,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
