TKO Group Holdings Inc (TKO)

[Nikodemos]

I shorted this with the Vince McMahon choreography leading into his stepping down.

Long term I LOVE this stock. As a long-standing Jui-Jitsu practitioner the sport is physical-chess in real-time/action & the MMA version is simply EXPLODING globally with their International Performance Institutes being built world-wide (Mexico, etc., with many more coming as we speak): TKO has the making of a LONG TERM Buy & Hold. At least FOR ME! Everyone to do as their finances, goals, financial objectives, needs, timeline, etc., dictate!

I'm back ACCUMULATING & feeling fortunate to have gotten sub-$75 shares (to GO LONG ON) after REPORTING (HERE on this very board) to covering my short position in the $74 to $77 range.... Anyone can CHECK my posting history & verify!


The timing was PERFECT & I expect these shares to provide A TON of upside as Dana builds this thing out. The women's side of MMA is EXPLODING. Just step into ANY dojo & see for yourself. MMA is a wonderful (albeit brutal, ESPECIALLY as one gets older -- if they don't follow certain RULES & work with thoughtful training partners) SPORT with life-long benefits to mind & body!!

I have my Mom, wife, kids, EVERYONE in my family is on-board & has been training (cousins, nephews, nieces, etc.) & go 5x/wk..

If you've never tried it... You should! My best friends Mom just started (in her mid-70's) & after 6mos she looks 20yrs younger! No joke! Love it. Was waiting A LONG TIME for this investment opportunity... But even though I was LONG the sport, etc., Vince shenanigans were NOT going to fly with insiders I had been checking in with.... The REAL Jui-Jitsu community, coaches, etc., is a SMALL TIGHT KNIT group... But the art is expanding daily. And Dana is going to take this to long-term heights. Check in by 2030 & we'll see if I was RIGHT or wrong!! Already GREEN BIGGLY on the short & on my BUYS since closing out my short position!

Now just continue to accumulate, patiently BUY the dips & watch my money GROW along with the sport!

PS: When I was on the East Coast I used to go to Maxfit (Philly), then owned & run by Professor Steve Maxwell... Only Jui-Jitsu place (at the time that EXISTED) & it was a brutally-long drive, brutal training, etc.. (early in the morning; while it was still dark early). Steve Maxwell is highly-regarded, still teaches, & travels THE WORLD teaching fitness & BJJ skills TO THIS DAY! And he's in NUMEROUS NY Times Bestselling books BY NAME!! Long association with BJJ/MMA & so I'm glad to be accumulating this. I see it as a long-term winner! Do your own DD, etc.. folks... Just saying!

[Nikodemos]

Yes! Doing GREAT! Thanks for asking.... Hope all is well with you too...

If you need to PM me use the Happy Hour.

Good to hear from you Sunny....


Be well...

[Hulk Hogan is God]

CM Punk return HOT

[Sunnybank]

Hi Niko. Trust you have been well. I can't do PM replies. So like Weedtrader who I See is also here, I'm deep into Shiba Inu. I sold my 900k TYTN shares. Now dufus is at it again.Be well sir.Sunny.

[Nikodemos]

GOT it covered around $78 down through $77.89 so now we see if the $80 is a brief relief & recovery from PROFIT TAKING

& then see if she goes lower of WHAT?


$93-$95 if she get there quickly, we'll have to wait & see!

[Nikodemos]

Testing that $79.13 again I presume, where I suspect it will BREAK DOWN!

[Nikodemos]

Not so! I TOLD YOU it was going LOWER!! So if you went or were going LONG here you did well to step aside.

Look at the price today & that HUGE DOWN candle...

They better make nice with Vince McMahon imho.

Long term they'll be fine here.. but this could get A TON worse if this trend keeps up!


Just sayin....

Have NOT COVERED my short position yet but... It is hitting my ORIGINAL FIRST TARGET. The fact that it is
ACCELERATING is worrisome for those going long (of course) but bodes well for my investment thesis here....


GL


$TKO (short term call imho)

[Nikodemos]

LMMAO!! Nah, we have to see what this is. Mixed signals atm. Doji from yesterday says she wants to reverse, but I don't think so. I think she'll test $83 & could head into the $70's test which is what I predicted & expected from ~$105 when the NEWS came out about the layoffs & cutting back staff. Which was REALLY a smokescreen trying to hide the insider/McMahon tiff!

I feel VERY CONFIDENT he's selling, printing & banking!

If $83 breaches I'll INCREASE my position & see if it accelerates... If it does not, I'll bounce.

Still in the money, GREEN on my trade & puts so...it's ALL GOOD!

[weedtrader420]

Now you’re getting crushed on your short because I sold🤭

[weedtrader420]

OUT🥊 🤮

[Nikodemos]

So I put my SHORT back on here (as I said I would yesterday)...

And so far so good!

I have NO CLUE if that GAP will FILL...

But it seems like a REASONABLE TARGET since how many shares I suspect the NOW FIRED McMahon is DUMPING!!


This guy is about LEVERAGE & RESULTS. I know he is a bit of a scandal & leadership fears he's a liability, but if he still
wants to be involved: LET HIM! Otherwise, this is what they should EXPECT from him! Surprised he hasn't been MORE
vocal about the slights to his person!


$TKO goes LOWER first, imho...

TKO🥊$89 sometime this week

[Nikodemos]

If there is NO NEWS tomorrow I will be COMPELLED to put the short back on. Chart suggesting the CUT will be DEEPER HERE... Todays candle is hardly a confirmation of more upside. In fact, it does NOT BODE well for tomorrow... If they're smart they'll drop NEWS. Unless, they want the seller to capitulate... & be done!


Just mho...

I bet Vince McMahon is liquidating....

And why not, he's EARNED the right! And NOW that he was seemingly FORCED OUT of the COMPANY HE HELPED CREATE...


I can't see why he wouldn't send a message... They'd be smart to remedy that & get him back on-board doing WTF he wanted!

Just saying... No NEWS first thing & I'm gonna hafta short this...

[weedtrader420]

I seen that 🤔👍 wtf

[Nikodemos]

There's an ~$69 to $77 GAP that I was looking at. Seeing if the ACCELERATION down to $80 was going to bring the price there.

I'm fairly certain Mr. McMahon is liquidating his holdings NOW THAT he is no longer constrained by being an "insider" in the company!

Of course SHORT INTEREST knows what's up too & so they likely COVERED there. We'll see if what results is a DOUBLE-DIP to cut this down more deeply into that GAP area or the stock is on the road to recovery!

Time will tell: ALWAYS DOES....

TKO🥊🫣

[Nikodemos]

Let it tank as far as I'm concerned. There were issues with WWE Vince McMahon (in particular) & no doubt he is selling into this
NOW that he isn't beholden to an INSIDER TRADING rules & regulations! I wouldn't be surprised if he DOES HIS DUMPING &
then gets hired back!! I mean,... wouldn't it be JUST LIKE the snake-oil salesman, Barnum & Bailey Circus CLOWNSTICK?

And I say that LOVINGLY -- NOT because I LOVE wresting! I prefer the REAL THING!! And have most of my life (Jui-jitsu, etc.),
but because I RESPECT HIM & what he's done!! He has an amazing, flexible, creative & disciplined mind -- is a showman with
fantastic business acumen! You don't get to be THAT BIG on FAKE without something extraordinary imv!

What do you think?

I would NOT be surprised for this to SINK LOWER... & am kinda convinced that he's either liquidating OR the market just doesn't
like that he's been more-or-less: CHUCKED aside!! It very well could be BOTH!!

Also, I LOVE entertainment stocks when the economy is tight... Because people look for distraction. And NEED IT! That, & sin
stocks... This one is a great fit for my portfolio but I shorted it on the LAYOFFS (posted as such here) & got VERY LUCKY because
the McMahon news come out right after I did...

Should be fine -- VERY FINE -- long term.

This stock price is as fake as wrestling. no way we should be down here at $80. Why didn’t they give the Fox News before the IPO WTF

[Nikodemos]

ENDEAVOR (EDR) you mean, the parent? The dividend is A TOKEN -- just to say they have one. Make it appear enticing to the Institutions, I presume! Although you have to be pretty PISS POOR at your job to NOT read the fine print &* see that the divi is only a token & totally insignificant to SHAREHOLDERS since MOST of that money is going to preferred "bonuses" etc..

REGARDLESS, I've been nibbling back my position BECAUSE although I believe a TEST of $80 is likely & want to grab $7x's, I see value & don't want to miss it if it RIPS!!

Wall St & the stock market tend to have a short memory after these knee-jerk reactions... But STILL I suspect this will go LOWER, eventually.

And yet, I'm NOT willing to be out... If it drops to where I think it will -- I have PLENTY OF FIREPOWER to PLOUGH into this! And will...

I’ve never understood why a company with such a tiny dividend is so high, love WWE though.

[Nikodemos]

As I said yesterday -- I DID NOT like the layoffs. Usually this is a good sign for SHAREHOLDERS because the prevailing wisdom has always been lowered costs, a temp increase in efficiency, greater profits (short term) & capital preservation but...

So TONE DEAF!! So I TOOK MY EXIT & SHORTED this...

I get that they'll pick up labor FAR MORE cheaply, in Mexico for example...

& I LOVE that (from the pov of a long-term shareholders) but the PI & business, including the NEXT FIGHT down there... Isn't coming anytime (SOON ENOUGH)

We could see this hit the $70's or lower... Setting my SIGHTS LOWER -- Sold $105's++ & I WAS in BIGGLY!!

Too bad... BOTH the WWE & UFC have been kicking ass but... This was a misstep imv, & I think some dumping will ensue. It's not so much that its a lot of jobs, that would have a TREMENDOUS impact to the bottom-line - but rather the message...

[Nikodemos]

I admit, I did NOT like reading this but I'm sure I'm alone in this (from an investors pov)
