While the market has seen short squeezes occur in the past, GameStop’s was fueled by an internet community looking tostick it to hedge funds. All the more interesting, GameStop’s backers have been relentlessly holding their positions, some with tempting amounts of profit. Regardless, I personally believe GameStop is not poised well for the current market conditions looming and ahead. Rising interest rates, high inflation, and overall economic turmoil likely won’t bode well for this meme stock. I covered GameStop back in May using technical analysis, predicting the stock was headed down. However, GameStop didn&#39;t have the stiff macro headwinds that it&#39;s facing now. This article will cover the additional catalysts weighing on GameStop stock, and why I believe the stock isn&#39;t far from trading at penny stock price levels.</p><h2>Interest rates, inflation, and a struggling economy:</h2><p>Interest rates have already hit the broader market quite substantially. The federal funds rate has jumped from a target rate of 0% - 0.25% to 3% - 3.25% in an effort to counter 40-year high inflation levels. As a result, the Dow Jones is down roughly 20% from previous market highs. GameStop hasn’t had a great year by any measure; however, the stock is only down roughly 10% from its candle close this January around the $27 price level.</p><p>It’s worth noting the Fed is planning to hike rates upwards of 4.75% by the end of 2022, with plans to reach the 5% early in 2023. The idea is that higher rates will reduce consumer spending, in turn reducing the demand and price of consumer goods (inflation). However, inflation levels are still north of 8%, even as rates continue to rise. The inflation crisis in the current market is more severe than I think a lot of people realize. Covid-fueled stimulus and quantitative easing flooded capital into the markets while the Fed kept rates on the floor as the market was flourishing. This flooded the market with capital and access to very cheap borrowed capital, resulting in massive consumer spending. This spending created high demand and high prices. Furthermore, the market was hit with global supply chain disruptions, exacerbating price hikes. Next thing we know, stimulus checks have been spent and the Fed starts hiking rates rapidly. This is where the economic turmoil comes in, as consumers are struggling on the capital front while the cost of consumer goods have skyrocketed.</p><p>This is all terrible for those long on GameStop. To start, GameStop sells consumer goods, which are now highly priced and less frequently bought. This is particularly alarming considering GameStop’s goods would be considered more of a luxury item (gaming and entertainment). The GameStop bulls will tell you sweet tales of GameStop’s emergence in the Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) market, however, I wouldn’t be sold too quickly. There are numerous big players in the NFT market, and sources reflect NFT prices have dropped between 70% and 92% since March of this year. If GameStop’s business model wasn’t bad enough for you as is, the company’s saving grace lies in a market where prices are down upwards of 90%. Keep in mind, NFTs are considered to be far more volatile than the likes of the Crypto market’s best projects like Bitcoin and Ethereum. It’s worth noting both Bitcoin and Ethereum are down roughly 72% from all-time highs.</p><p>In short, GameStop is operating a dying business model to begin with. That business model gets even worse when factoring in the economic turmoil that is currently plaguing consumers and businesses. The company’s transition to a market that is down 70% across the board really shouldn’t provide much optimism either. Aside from the meme soldiers with an undying ambition to stick it to hedge funds, GameStop is simply dead money.</p><h2>A quick look at GameStop’s financial instability:</h2><p>GameStop’s books reflect a dying business after it has been given the financial equivalent of a heart, brain, and lung transplant. The company is still operating at a loss, with its trailing twelve-month (TTM) net income sitting at ($519.50) million. To better emphasize that statement, TTM free cash flow sits at ($876.40) million. GameStop was actually free cash flow positive on a TTM basis for the quarter ending in April of 2021 with $86.10 million. The company’s free cash flow has dropped over 1,000% since its short squeeze. GameStop’s price to book is sitting just north of 5.6, indicating GameStop bulls are willing to pay nearly six times the value of shareholder’s equity for a stock that is exponentially losing more money each quarter. In short, there is simply no indication that GameStop is doing anything successful on a business front. Sure, I understand wanting to stick it to hedge funds; however, how long can this game be played? This stock is providing more risk to the retail investors backing it than any institutional hedge fund abroad.</p><h2>My prediction for GameStop (technical analysis):</h2><p>I’m going to provide my technical analysis prediction for GameStop moving forward. I don’t like to use technical analysis for common stocks, however, considering GameStop trades against all fundamentals, I will do so here.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d3e94ab4637d8bede0f521a617a25023\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"292\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>GameStop Support Levels (tradingview.com)</span></p><p>GameStop has formed a massive descending triangle pattern since reaching its all-time high in January of 2021. More importantly, in my opinion, is how GameStop continues break critical levels of support, with the most critical level approaching. Should GameStop break below the $19.83 level, there are only two more levels—$10 and $5—before the stock will be headed to price levels under $1. Considering the current state of the economy and GameStop’s inability to achieve any financial success, I believe the stock is on its last legs.</p><p>While many of GameStop bulls want to hold out as long as possible, I do believe the temptation to take potential profits will overpower the will to stick it to hedge funds. Especially, when considering many GameStop bulls may need to sell positions to help their own financial positions amid economic uncertainty. Sadly, I believe many positions in GameStop are at a loss and held with hopes of another short squeeze. Most of success stories heard with GameStop are of traders that SOLD their positions for massive gains. The ideology of ‘diamond hands’ appears to be harming those with either minor gains and/or now losses.</p><p>There is far more against GameStop stock than just hedge funds: Economic turmoil, market psychology, and the basic fundamentals of finance. GameStop has been trending one direction (down) since its massive price spike last year, and it doesn’t look like that’s going to change any time soon. In fact, GameStop’s decline began well before it was facing a slew of headwinds with inflation, interest rate hikes, and a struggling economy. All indications point to GameStop being on a fast track to the penny stock label. I believe the economy and broader market will be facing headwinds well into 2023. That said, I believe that GameStop will fall to price levels below $10 in the next year.</p><h2>Conclusion:</h2><p>In conclusion, I don’t see the GameStop charade lasting much longer. The investors that succeeded knew the nature of a short squeeze and made massive profits. Many others appear to be living on a prayer. A short squeeze can only go so far, and GameStop’s was substantial. The hope of a $10,000 per share of GameStop was simply unrealistic. Reddit’s meme army did stick it to the hedge funds; many of them were forced to close shorts and realized massive losses. Current short interest is less than 20% of shares outstanding currently. When the squeeze occurred, short interest was over 100% of shares outstanding. GameStop is facing significant headwinds with no optimism in sight. I believe GameStop is headed towards price levels below $5 per share (penny stock price range) and rate it a sell.</p></body></html>","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>GameStop: This Meme Stock Could Be On Its Way To Penny Stock Price Levels</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\">\nGameStop: This Meme Stock Could Be On Its Way To Penny Stock Price Levels\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-10-12 11:46 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4545962-gamestop-meme-stock-to-penny-stock><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryGameStop is now facing inflation, interest rate hikes, and economic turmoil.GameStop's financial performance continues to progressively decline.Based on technical analysis, GameStop is a hop, ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4545962-gamestop-meme-stock-to-penny-stock\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"GME":"游戏驿站"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4545962-gamestop-meme-stock-to-penny-stock","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1141898018","content_text":"SummaryGameStop is now facing inflation, interest rate hikes, and economic turmoil.GameStop's financial performance continues to progressively decline.Based on technical analysis, GameStop is a hop, skip, and a jump away from being a penny stock.ChunumunuThesis:GameStop (NYSE:GME) took the investing world for a run with its epic short squeeze in January of 2021.

Sadly, I believe many positions in GameStop are at a loss and held with hopes of another short squeeze. Most of success stories heard with GameStop are of traders that SOLD their positions for massive gains. The ideology of ‘diamond hands’ appears to be harming those with either minor gains and/or now losses.There is far more against GameStop stock than just hedge funds: Economic turmoil, market psychology, and the basic fundamentals of finance. GameStop has been trending one direction (down) since its massive price spike last year, and it doesn’t look like that’s going to change any time soon. In fact, GameStop’s decline began well before it was facing a slew of headwinds with inflation, interest rate hikes, and a struggling economy. All indications point to GameStop being on a fast track to the penny stock label. I believe the economy and broader market will be facing headwinds well into 2023. That said, I believe that GameStop will fall to price levels below $10 in the next year.Conclusion:In conclusion, I don’t see the GameStop charade lasting much longer. The investors that succeeded knew the nature of a short squeeze and made massive profits. Many others appear to be living on a prayer. A short squeeze can only go so far, and GameStop’s was substantial. The hope of a $10,000 per share of GameStop was simply unrealistic. Reddit’s meme army did stick it to the hedge funds; many of them were forced to close shorts and realized massive losses. Current short interest is less than 20% of shares outstanding currently. When the squeeze occurred, short interest was over 100% of shares outstanding. GameStop is facing significant headwinds with no optimism in sight. I believe GameStop is headed towards price levels below $5 per share (penny stock price range) and rate it a sell.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":276,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9914069774,"gmtCreate":1665134235398,"gmtModify":1676537562727,"author":{"id":"3573637775957146","authorId":"3573637775957146","name":"cocogoat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7a6abbaa6464f401dda94bc10ec732ff","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok noted","listText":"Ok noted","text":"Ok noted","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9914069774","repostId":"2273803113","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2273803113","pubTimestamp":1665131530,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2273803113?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-10-07 16:32","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Apple: Why I Bought More At $140","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2273803113","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"SummaryI placed a limit buy order for Apple at $140 in September.

The alert informed them that I placed a limit buy order for Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) at $140 and mythought process (the stock price then was about $150.5). A price of $140 corresponds to about 22x of its FW PE. To me, any valuation near 20x is very attractive for a stock with ROCE (return on capital employed) near 100% like AAPL. At about 100% ROCE, a 5% investment rate would provide 5% organic real growth rates (i.e., before inflation adjustments). And a 22x PE would provide about 5% owners earnings yield, leading to a total return close to double digits. For a stock like AAPL, I am always happy to buy/add when the total annual return is close to 10% or above. A 10% return is healthy enough to start with. Once you adjust for the risks (and I consider the risks from AAPL similar to treasury bonds), a 10% annual return is almost 3x of what you can get from bonds in the long term.</p><p>Also, to put things under historical perspective, a valuation around 22x is also below the historical average of 24.7x in recent years by about 10% (11% to be exact), leaving a comfortable margin of safety. And also, bear in mind that the stock was so obviously before 2021 and those levels are outliers in my mind. So, the historical average of 24.75x is already biased.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a0abaa433019690a8212d9df8d71726d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"369\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Seeking Alpha data</span></p><p>All told, thanks to market volatility, the stock price dipped below $140 a few days later on Sept 30. The order is triggered, and now I own more AAPL shares. I of course do not want to pretend that I have any idea that its price would actually dip below $140 or not. However, I do have a good sense of its intrinsic value and the magnitude of market gyrations. And as a long-term and patient investor, I do know that 22x PE is a good deal for a stock like AAPL.</p><h2>Near-term challenges</h2><p>There is no shortage of external challenges in the near term. And these challenges can be substantial, too. They will continue to weigh on performance over the near term. These challenges include new variants of COVID-19, the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine, unfavorable currency exchange rates, and high inflation and rising interest rates. In particular, you can see the effects that these headwinds have exerted on its margins. Over the past few quarters, its gross margin shrank by more than 200 basis points from a peak of 43.76% to 41.04%. Net profit margin shrank even more, by more than 450 basis points from a peak of 27.9% to 23.4%. China, its key market, had to lock down several of its key cities in the H1 of the year due to COVID-19, and the ongoing pandemic situation probably would lead to more lockdowns, which have impacted its sales and production and would very likely continue to in the near future.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3f2a9e2475e37539082fb89230bb995b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"432\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Seeking Alpha data</span></p><h2>AAPL and Buffettism</h2><p>However, as Buffett commented, if you have to closely follow the day-to-day stuff of a stock, you should not own it in the first place. He was once asked about his AAPL position during a Yahoo! Finance interview. You can see the full interview here, full of typical Buffett-style wisdom and highly recommended. The following is an excerpt and the highlights are added by me.</p><blockquote><i>Yahoo Finance: how closely do you follow the company? You know, people are concerned they really have not introduced any new products.</i></blockquote><blockquote><i>Buffett:</i> <i><b>Well, if you have to closely follow the company, you should not own it in the first place. If you buy a business, say you buy a farm, do you go up and look every couple of weeks to see how far the corn has grown up?</b></i> <i>Do you worry too much about whether somebody says this year is going to be a year of low corn prices because exports are being affected or something? You know, it does not grow faster if I go and stare at it…</i><i><b>AlthoughI do care over the years that it is well tended to in terms of rotating crops. And I hope yields get better.</b></i></blockquote><p>In my mind, this wisdom is truer for Apple than anything else. A high-yield farm is what exactly it is. As a high-yield farm, investors should have the perspective to overlook its daily (or even yearly) noises and focus on the long term, as detailed next.</p><h2>Business outlook and projected returns</h2><p>I am optimistic about its future. The company has displayed remarkable resilience in the face of the difficult operating backdrop in the past. And I am certain that this time is no different. The inflation or drag from foreign exchange rates may worsen in the near term. But remember, Buffett&#39;s other wisdom is<i>not</i>to pick stocks based on macroeconomic parameters - which are totally unpredictable and out of anyone&#39;s control.</p><p>Altogether, consensus estimates look for share net to come in around $6.46 in 2023. And again, at a price of $140, the PE would be about 22x. Based on the consensus estimates, the growth rate would be about 4.6% CAGR in the next few years, which agrees with my back-of-envelope estimate closely. As aforementioned, at about 100% ROCE, a 5% investment rate would provide 5% organic real growth rates.</p><p>All told, a 22x entry PE, combined with a ~5% growth rate, should provide about 10% total return for a long-term business owner.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d4adcc41419bcccde9ab540b89f003c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"260\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Seeking Alpha data</span></p><p>Notably, services-related revenues should continue to advance and represent a strong engine for future growth.

Broadening the timeframe a bit, the growth in its revenues from services has grown more than 230% since 2017, also far outpacing the growth of its product sales (which increased by about 160%).

In my view, the market underestimates (or misunderstands) its SaaS potential. As seen from the chart below, it is trading at a sizeable discount relative to other more &#34;standard&#34; SaaS stocks. To wit, in terms of FY1 PE, it is trading slightly below Microsoft Corporation by about 4%, about 20% below Intuit Inc, and more than 27% below Salesforce Inc.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/267e4208372cf220c56b8cfcab38cd7c\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"206\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Source: Seeking Alpha data</span></p><h2>Risks and final thoughts</h2><p>To recap, there is no doubt that the business faces many short-term challenges.

Mainly, due to the risk that external factors would outweigh any split-induced boost for GME stock. Market conditions are no longer on the side of meme stocks.</p><p>The Federal Reserve continues to get more hawkish, tightening monetary policy to bring inflation under control. Speculative stocks are at risk of experiencing further downward pressure. Add in waning interest in meme stocks among retail investors, and what do you get? Most likely, lower prices ahead for the video game retailer’s shares.</p><p>On top of this, there may be something else that causes the GME stock price to drop: its upcoming earnings report. Expected to report earnings in early June, the market could react negatively to the numbers. Why? As my<i>InvestorPlace</i>colleague Faisal Humayun argued in April, video game sales are in a slump. With the boost from the pandemic long gone, last month video game industry sales were down 15% year-over-year.</p><p>This points to the company reporting worse-than-expected top and bottom line results. A weakening video game market also bodes badly for its e-commerce plans. If it becomes more apparent that cooling video game demand will affect its digital transformation efforts? It may become harder for GameStop to sustain its triple-digit stock price.</p><p>Once again, shares could fall back below the $100 per share mark. Put simply, a continued downward slide isn’t fully dependent on more market volatility. Updates from the company may end up being what knocks it down lower.</p><p>With this in mind, it doesn’t appear wise to buy now, on the expectation more progress on its stock split plans spark another meme wave. I’ll admit I may not be giving the stock split catalyst its due credit. After all, as one hedge fund (Bronte Capital) that is short GameStop has remarked, “not accepting that stock splits add value is a recipe for losing money.” Also, given that the shareholder vote on the split is set to happen around the time the company next reports results, you may argue that “meme news” could outweigh more substantial news.</p><p>You can point to how the stock performed in late March as evidence of this.First dipping on underwhelming earnings, shares surged on news of Chairman Ryan Cohen’s insider buying.

Mainly, due to the risk that external factors would outweigh any split-induced boost for GME stock. Market conditions are no longer on the side of meme stocks.The Federal Reserve continues to get more hawkish, tightening monetary policy to bring inflation under control. Speculative stocks are at risk of experiencing further downward pressure. Add in waning interest in meme stocks among retail investors, and what do you get? Most likely, lower prices ahead for the video game retailer’s shares.On top of this, there may be something else that causes the GME stock price to drop: its upcoming earnings report. Expected to report earnings in early June, the market could react negatively to the numbers. Why? As myInvestorPlacecolleague Faisal Humayun argued in April, video game sales are in a slump. With the boost from the pandemic long gone, last month video game industry sales were down 15% year-over-year.This points to the company reporting worse-than-expected top and bottom line results. A weakening video game market also bodes badly for its e-commerce plans. If it becomes more apparent that cooling video game demand will affect its digital transformation efforts? It may become harder for GameStop to sustain its triple-digit stock price.Once again, shares could fall back below the $100 per share mark. Put simply, a continued downward slide isn’t fully dependent on more market volatility. Updates from the company may end up being what knocks it down lower.With this in mind, it doesn’t appear wise to buy now, on the expectation more progress on its stock split plans spark another meme wave. I’ll admit I may not be giving the stock split catalyst its due credit. After all, as one hedge fund (Bronte Capital) that is short GameStop has remarked, “not accepting that stock splits add value is a recipe for losing money.” Also, given that the shareholder vote on the split is set to happen around the time the company next reports results, you may argue that “meme news” could outweigh more substantial news.You can point to how the stock performed in late March as evidence of this.First dipping on underwhelming earnings, shares surged on news of Chairman Ryan Cohen’s insider buying. However, it’s not a slam dunk there will be another relief rally during this time. Without one, it’s doubtful what played out in March will play out again in June. The approval of its stock split may fail to outweigh worsening fundamentals. In short, there’s little reason to hold GME stock going into the summer.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":167,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9060533005,"gmtCreate":1651161919686,"gmtModify":1676534862043,"author":{"id":"3573637775957146","authorId":"3573637775957146","name":"cocogoat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7a6abbaa6464f401dda94bc10ec732ff","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/GME\">$GameStop(GME)$</a>[shy]&nbsp;[shy]&nbsp;[shy]&nbsp;","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/GME\">$GameStop(GME)$</a>[shy]&nbsp;[shy]&nbsp;[shy]&nbsp;","text":"$GameStop(GME)$[shy] [shy] [shy]","images":[{"img":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/1ebf764a04c7f4ad80878e675a76852c","width":"720","height":"1560"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9060533005","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":61,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9060591248,"gmtCreate":1651160836175,"gmtModify":1676534861761,"author":{"id":"3573637775957146","authorId":"3573637775957146","name":"cocogoat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7a6abbaa6464f401dda94bc10ec732ff","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"This fella is a reverse indicator.

A short-lived rally in “risk-on” plays and news of Chairman Ryan Cohenincreasing his position in GME stock helped drive shares from less than $80 to nearly $200 in just over two weeks. Since then, however, shares of the video game retailer and meme stock legend have pulled back below the $150 level.</p><p>This move is in line with the overall market. Last month’s shrugging off of the Federal Reserve’s rate hikes has morphed into growing concern that rising rates will lead to an economic slowdown or a recession.</p><p>Investors may be tempted to buy the dip in GME stock, especially given management’s plans to implement a stock split. But keep in mind that external factors are likely to outweigh any boost from the split plans. In the month ahead, GME stock could easily drift back below $100 per share.</p><p>Will Split Plans Be a Catalyst for GME Stock?</p><p>In late March, GameStop announced plans for a stock split that would roughly triple its number of shares from 300 million to 1 billion. GME stock initially shot up on the news.</p><p>This stock split plan is in the early stages. Shareholders still need to vote and approve it. However, given that many stocks have seen a lift from splitting (even as it changes nothing about the stock’s underlying value), it is likely shareholders will approve a split of GME stock.</p><p>But does it make sense to buy ahead of this event, entering a position now and selling if/when shares pop on further developments related to a split?</p><p>You may chalk up last month’s big spike in GME stock to the news of Cohen’s insider buying, but the market’s renewed enthusiasm for meme plays likely played a larger role. In other words, company developments are serving more as an accelerant, with market conditions determining which direction the stock moves.</p><p>For the split to result in a dramatic move higher for shares, investor sentiment needs to be on its side. Put simply, that’s far from a given.</p><p>Market Conditions Are Not on GameStop’s Side</p><p>Last month, the market seemed to declare interest rate hikes and other Fed monetary tightening measures were no big deal. Yet, so far this month, it seems they’ve started to once again become a concern. Analysts and economists are warning of increased recession odds, with those at Deutsche Bank and Goldman Sachs saying to expect one in 2023.</p><p>This, of course, doesn’t mean it will be smooth sailing for stocks until then. I wouldn’t count on a repeat of the short-lived euphoria for “risk-on” plays we saw last month. As interest rates rise, risky, richly-priced equities (including meme stocks) could continue to experience downward pressure.</p><p>In short, it’s risky to buy GME stock on its stock split catalyst. There’s no guarantee a split approval and implementation will move the needle for shares. And unfavorable market conditions are likely to weigh on GME stock over the next year, perhaps pushing it back below $100 per share.</p><p>Avoid GME Stock For Now</p><p>The speculative frenzy that helped GME stock make history will continue to cool.

A short-lived rally in “risk-on” plays and news of Chairman Ryan Cohenincreasing his position in GME stock helped drive shares from less than $80 to nearly $200 in just over two weeks. Since then, however, shares of the video game retailer and meme stock legend have pulled back below the $150 level.This move is in line with the overall market. Last month’s shrugging off of the Federal Reserve’s rate hikes has morphed into growing concern that rising rates will lead to an economic slowdown or a recession.Investors may be tempted to buy the dip in GME stock, especially given management’s plans to implement a stock split. But keep in mind that external factors are likely to outweigh any boost from the split plans. In the month ahead, GME stock could easily drift back below $100 per share.Will Split Plans Be a Catalyst for GME Stock?In late March, GameStop announced plans for a stock split that would roughly triple its number of shares from 300 million to 1 billion. GME stock initially shot up on the news.This stock split plan is in the early stages. Shareholders still need to vote and approve it. However, given that many stocks have seen a lift from splitting (even as it changes nothing about the stock’s underlying value), it is likely shareholders will approve a split of GME stock.But does it make sense to buy ahead of this event, entering a position now and selling if/when shares pop on further developments related to a split?You may chalk up last month’s big spike in GME stock to the news of Cohen’s insider buying, but the market’s renewed enthusiasm for meme plays likely played a larger role. In other words, company developments are serving more as an accelerant, with market conditions determining which direction the stock moves.For the split to result in a dramatic move higher for shares, investor sentiment needs to be on its side. Put simply, that’s far from a given.Market Conditions Are Not on GameStop’s SideLast month, the market seemed to declare interest rate hikes and other Fed monetary tightening measures were no big deal. Yet, so far this month, it seems they’ve started to once again become a concern. Analysts and economists are warning of increased recession odds, with those at Deutsche Bank and Goldman Sachs saying to expect one in 2023.This, of course, doesn’t mean it will be smooth sailing for stocks until then. I wouldn’t count on a repeat of the short-lived euphoria for “risk-on” plays we saw last month. As interest rates rise, risky, richly-priced equities (including meme stocks) could continue to experience downward pressure.In short, it’s risky to buy GME stock on its stock split catalyst. There’s no guarantee a split approval and implementation will move the needle for shares. And unfavorable market conditions are likely to weigh on GME stock over the next year, perhaps pushing it back below $100 per share.Avoid GME Stock For NowThe speculative frenzy that helped GME stock make history will continue to cool. As it does, some of the more skittish “Apes” could also cash out.As I’ve long argued, once GameStop’s pool of meme-focused shareholders thins out, shares will in time move toward a more rational price. That would be a price that accurately accounts for the upside potential of its e-commerce transformation plans. Whether that’s in line with analyst price targets or below them doesn’t matter. It will be a price well below what shares trade for today.Given the extent to which market conditions will drive its next move, don’t buy GME stock due to its planned split.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":203,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9086549654,"gmtCreate":1650473342637,"gmtModify":1676534732627,"author":{"id":"3573637775957146","authorId":"3573637775957146","name":"cocogoat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7a6abbaa6464f401dda94bc10ec732ff","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/GRAB\">$Grab Holdings(GRAB)$</a>&nbsp;faster delist lol u guys alrd paid for the ceo house 😂😂😂","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/GRAB\">$Grab Holdings(GRAB)$</a>&nbsp;faster delist lol u guys alrd paid for the ceo house 😂😂😂","text":"$Grab Holdings(GRAB)$ faster delist lol u guys alrd paid for the ceo house 😂😂😂","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9086549654","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":565,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[{"author":{"id":"3577330851763964","authorId":"3577330851763964","name":"ToTheSun0000","avatar":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/d9efa26d1020f421dd5d2f8cfab0545e","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"content":"should really force them to delist.

While the market has seen short squeezes occur in the past, GameStop’s was fueled by an internet community looking tostick it to hedge funds. All the more interesting, GameStop’s backers have been relentlessly holding their positions, some with tempting amounts of profit. Regardless, I personally believe GameStop is not poised well for the current market conditions looming and ahead. Rising interest rates, high inflation, and overall economic turmoil likely won’t bode well for this meme stock. I covered GameStop back in May using technical analysis, predicting the stock was headed down. However, GameStop didn&#39;t have the stiff macro headwinds that it&#39;s facing now. This article will cover the additional catalysts weighing on GameStop stock, and why I believe the stock isn&#39;t far from trading at penny stock price levels.</p><h2>Interest rates, inflation, and a struggling economy:</h2><p>Interest rates have already hit the broader market quite substantially. The federal funds rate has jumped from a target rate of 0% - 0.25% to 3% - 3.25% in an effort to counter 40-year high inflation levels. As a result, the Dow Jones is down roughly 20% from previous market highs. GameStop hasn’t had a great year by any measure; however, the stock is only down roughly 10% from its candle close this January around the $27 price level.</p><p>It’s worth noting the Fed is planning to hike rates upwards of 4.75% by the end of 2022, with plans to reach the 5% early in 2023. The idea is that higher rates will reduce consumer spending, in turn reducing the demand and price of consumer goods (inflation). However, inflation levels are still north of 8%, even as rates continue to rise. The inflation crisis in the current market is more severe than I think a lot of people realize. Covid-fueled stimulus and quantitative easing flooded capital into the markets while the Fed kept rates on the floor as the market was flourishing. This flooded the market with capital and access to very cheap borrowed capital, resulting in massive consumer spending. This spending created high demand and high prices. Furthermore, the market was hit with global supply chain disruptions, exacerbating price hikes. Next thing we know, stimulus checks have been spent and the Fed starts hiking rates rapidly. This is where the economic turmoil comes in, as consumers are struggling on the capital front while the cost of consumer goods have skyrocketed.</p><p>This is all terrible for those long on GameStop. To start, GameStop sells consumer goods, which are now highly priced and less frequently bought. This is particularly alarming considering GameStop’s goods would be considered more of a luxury item (gaming and entertainment). The GameStop bulls will tell you sweet tales of GameStop’s emergence in the Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) market, however, I wouldn’t be sold too quickly. There are numerous big players in the NFT market, and sources reflect NFT prices have dropped between 70% and 92% since March of this year. If GameStop’s business model wasn’t bad enough for you as is, the company’s saving grace lies in a market where prices are down upwards of 90%. Keep in mind, NFTs are considered to be far more volatile than the likes of the Crypto market’s best projects like Bitcoin and Ethereum. It’s worth noting both Bitcoin and Ethereum are down roughly 72% from all-time highs.</p><p>In short, GameStop is operating a dying business model to begin with. That business model gets even worse when factoring in the economic turmoil that is currently plaguing consumers and businesses. The company’s transition to a market that is down 70% across the board really shouldn’t provide much optimism either. Aside from the meme soldiers with an undying ambition to stick it to hedge funds, GameStop is simply dead money.</p><h2>A quick look at GameStop’s financial instability:</h2><p>GameStop’s books reflect a dying business after it has been given the financial equivalent of a heart, brain, and lung transplant. The company is still operating at a loss, with its trailing twelve-month (TTM) net income sitting at ($519.50) million. To better emphasize that statement, TTM free cash flow sits at ($876.40) million. GameStop was actually free cash flow positive on a TTM basis for the quarter ending in April of 2021 with $86.10 million. The company’s free cash flow has dropped over 1,000% since its short squeeze. GameStop’s price to book is sitting just north of 5.6, indicating GameStop bulls are willing to pay nearly six times the value of shareholder’s equity for a stock that is exponentially losing more money each quarter. In short, there is simply no indication that GameStop is doing anything successful on a business front. Sure, I understand wanting to stick it to hedge funds; however, how long can this game be played? This stock is providing more risk to the retail investors backing it than any institutional hedge fund abroad.</p><h2>My prediction for GameStop (technical analysis):</h2><p>I’m going to provide my technical analysis prediction for GameStop moving forward. I don’t like to use technical analysis for common stocks, however, considering GameStop trades against all fundamentals, I will do so here.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d3e94ab4637d8bede0f521a617a25023\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"292\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>GameStop Support Levels (tradingview.com)</span></p><p>GameStop has formed a massive descending triangle pattern since reaching its all-time high in January of 2021. More importantly, in my opinion, is how GameStop continues break critical levels of support, with the most critical level approaching. Should GameStop break below the $19.83 level, there are only two more levels—$10 and $5—before the stock will be headed to price levels under $1. Considering the current state of the economy and GameStop’s inability to achieve any financial success, I believe the stock is on its last legs.</p><p>While many of GameStop bulls want to hold out as long as possible, I do believe the temptation to take potential profits will overpower the will to stick it to hedge funds. Especially, when considering many GameStop bulls may need to sell positions to help their own financial positions amid economic uncertainty. Sadly, I believe many positions in GameStop are at a loss and held with hopes of another short squeeze. Most of success stories heard with GameStop are of traders that SOLD their positions for massive gains. The ideology of ‘diamond hands’ appears to be harming those with either minor gains and/or now losses.</p><p>There is far more against GameStop stock than just hedge funds: Economic turmoil, market psychology, and the basic fundamentals of finance. GameStop has been trending one direction (down) since its massive price spike last year, and it doesn’t look like that’s going to change any time soon. In fact, GameStop’s decline began well before it was facing a slew of headwinds with inflation, interest rate hikes, and a struggling economy. All indications point to GameStop being on a fast track to the penny stock label. I believe the economy and broader market will be facing headwinds well into 2023. That said, I believe that GameStop will fall to price levels below $10 in the next year.</p><h2>Conclusion:</h2><p>In conclusion, I don’t see the GameStop charade lasting much longer. The investors that succeeded knew the nature of a short squeeze and made massive profits. Many others appear to be living on a prayer. A short squeeze can only go so far, and GameStop’s was substantial. The hope of a $10,000 per share of GameStop was simply unrealistic. Reddit’s meme army did stick it to the hedge funds; many of them were forced to close shorts and realized massive losses. Current short interest is less than 20% of shares outstanding currently. When the squeeze occurred, short interest was over 100% of shares outstanding. GameStop is facing significant headwinds with no optimism in sight. I believe GameStop is headed towards price levels below $5 per share (penny stock price range) and rate it a sell.</p></body></html>","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>GameStop: This Meme Stock Could Be On Its Way To Penny Stock Price Levels</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\">\nGameStop: This Meme Stock Could Be On Its Way To Penny Stock Price Levels\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-10-12 11:46 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4545962-gamestop-meme-stock-to-penny-stock><strong>Seeking Alpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>SummaryGameStop is now facing inflation, interest rate hikes, and economic turmoil.GameStop's financial performance continues to progressively decline.Based on technical analysis, GameStop is a hop, ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4545962-gamestop-meme-stock-to-penny-stock\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"GME":"游戏驿站"},"source_url":"https://seekingalpha.com/article/4545962-gamestop-meme-stock-to-penny-stock","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1141898018","content_text":"SummaryGameStop is now facing inflation, interest rate hikes, and economic turmoil.GameStop's financial performance continues to progressively decline.Based on technical analysis, GameStop is a hop, skip, and a jump away from being a penny stock.ChunumunuThesis:GameStop (NYSE:GME) took the investing world for a run with its epic short squeeze in January of 2021. While the market has seen short squeezes occur in the past, GameStop’s was fueled by an internet community looking tostick it to hedge funds. All the more interesting, GameStop’s backers have been relentlessly holding their positions, some with tempting amounts of profit. Regardless, I personally believe GameStop is not poised well for the current market conditions looming and ahead. Rising interest rates, high inflation, and overall economic turmoil likely won’t bode well for this meme stock. I covered GameStop back in May using technical analysis, predicting the stock was headed down. However, GameStop didn't have the stiff macro headwinds that it's facing now. This article will cover the additional catalysts weighing on GameStop stock, and why I believe the stock isn't far from trading at penny stock price levels.Interest rates, inflation, and a struggling economy:Interest rates have already hit the broader market quite substantially. The federal funds rate has jumped from a target rate of 0% - 0.25% to 3% - 3.25% in an effort to counter 40-year high inflation levels. As a result, the Dow Jones is down roughly 20% from previous market highs. GameStop hasn’t had a great year by any measure; however, the stock is only down roughly 10% from its candle close this January around the $27 price level.It’s worth noting the Fed is planning to hike rates upwards of 4.75% by the end of 2022, with plans to reach the 5% early in 2023. The idea is that higher rates will reduce consumer spending, in turn reducing the demand and price of consumer goods (inflation). However, inflation levels are still north of 8%, even as rates continue to rise. The inflation crisis in the current market is more severe than I think a lot of people realize. Covid-fueled stimulus and quantitative easing flooded capital into the markets while the Fed kept rates on the floor as the market was flourishing. This flooded the market with capital and access to very cheap borrowed capital, resulting in massive consumer spending. This spending created high demand and high prices. Furthermore, the market was hit with global supply chain disruptions, exacerbating price hikes. Next thing we know, stimulus checks have been spent and the Fed starts hiking rates rapidly. This is where the economic turmoil comes in, as consumers are struggling on the capital front while the cost of consumer goods have skyrocketed.This is all terrible for those long on GameStop. To start, GameStop sells consumer goods, which are now highly priced and less frequently bought. This is particularly alarming considering GameStop’s goods would be considered more of a luxury item (gaming and entertainment). The GameStop bulls will tell you sweet tales of GameStop’s emergence in the Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) market, however, I wouldn’t be sold too quickly. There are numerous big players in the NFT market, and sources reflect NFT prices have dropped between 70% and 92% since March of this year. If GameStop’s business model wasn’t bad enough for you as is, the company’s saving grace lies in a market where prices are down upwards of 90%. Keep in mind, NFTs are considered to be far more volatile than the likes of the Crypto market’s best projects like Bitcoin and Ethereum. It’s worth noting both Bitcoin and Ethereum are down roughly 72% from all-time highs.In short, GameStop is operating a dying business model to begin with. That business model gets even worse when factoring in the economic turmoil that is currently plaguing consumers and businesses. The company’s transition to a market that is down 70% across the board really shouldn’t provide much optimism either. Aside from the meme soldiers with an undying ambition to stick it to hedge funds, GameStop is simply dead money.A quick look at GameStop’s financial instability:GameStop’s books reflect a dying business after it has been given the financial equivalent of a heart, brain, and lung transplant. The company is still operating at a loss, with its trailing twelve-month (TTM) net income sitting at ($519.50) million. To better emphasize that statement, TTM free cash flow sits at ($876.40) million. GameStop was actually free cash flow positive on a TTM basis for the quarter ending in April of 2021 with $86.10 million. The company’s free cash flow has dropped over 1,000% since its short squeeze. GameStop’s price to book is sitting just north of 5.6, indicating GameStop bulls are willing to pay nearly six times the value of shareholder’s equity for a stock that is exponentially losing more money each quarter. In short, there is simply no indication that GameStop is doing anything successful on a business front. Sure, I understand wanting to stick it to hedge funds; however, how long can this game be played? This stock is providing more risk to the retail investors backing it than any institutional hedge fund abroad.My prediction for GameStop (technical analysis):I’m going to provide my technical analysis prediction for GameStop moving forward. I don’t like to use technical analysis for common stocks, however, considering GameStop trades against all fundamentals, I will do so here.GameStop Support Levels (tradingview.com)GameStop has formed a massive descending triangle pattern since reaching its all-time high in January of 2021.
