Start kicking, and if you need help just let me know.
Don’t lock them, so when it shoots over $100 you aren’t taken out.
???????? laugh my ass off
No selling u till it tops, you will know when it tops because you will have 3 to 4 days of AMC price going down, to day and from now going forward you will see it go way up then the MM’s will tank it to shack out the week, if we all hold u til the HF are bankrupt and the government computers take over we will name out price because the only thing the computers won’t is to balance the books so if the lowest price share is being sold at $10,000 the computer will buy it, the computers don’t have any emotion so they will buy at any price offered.
Hodl, they are trying to shack us out, not selling any of my shares.
How are your short positions looking?
Your correct, before the January squeeze and the HF shorting the sh$t out of it because COVID and it was down to $2 to $3 but before COVID it was way higher and paid out a dividend, so now they are opening up and will have a great year.
SO YOU ARE WRONG. HISTORY DOESN’T LIE.
Has anyone here been having trouble opening the shared AMC YouTube vids, I haven’t seen any all day, I here that YouTube is censoring AMC vids.
If that’s the case then someone with deep pockets is moving the strings.
I wonder who are the major share holders of YouTube?
If there are no shares to loan, you won’t see the % showing, BTW the interest can go way higher than 100%.
That sugar is turning into salt.
Maybe Polosi’s husband has insider information that the HF days are numbered.

New rule approved today.
So if you think that it’s AMC is a scam because it’s trading 2 to 3 times over its value then a lot of big companies like Tesla and hundreds more are scammed because they trade at way more than 10 times their value.
ETurd shows 15.74 million
Don’t forget that Goldman Sacks gets paid on a percentage so the more they get for AMC the more they make.
Actually there are less than 450 mill, the shares held by insiders at AMC and the institutional shares held don’t count so it’s less then 300 mill in the float.
You are correct the float isn’t 450mill, from that number you have to subtract the shares held be insiders and the shares held by institutions so it’s probably 300mill
Your welcome, we are in it together so when we bankrupt the HF let’s all meet in Vegas and throw one hell of a party.
Your welcome brother, I never put more than 10% of my portfolio in one company but with all the DD we have here I am in with 90%, the only way we don’t make big bananas is if the government screws us some how.
Your welcome, when this starts to move it’s going to be crazy so don’t sell until it’s peeked.
Your welcome? Just doing my part for all of us, if we stick together we can make a big difference in our lives.
Your welcome, just remember we set the price when the squeeze starts, shares will be bought back by a computer so if we set the price height the computers will buy the cheapest shares available first so if they are at $1,000 a share that’s what the computer will by and move on to the next price which could be higher.
A must read.
*** Ultimate AMC Timeline (Updated April 25) ***
Apes, our saga is gettin' juicier than Minute Maid! Who's thirsty?
I hope that you enjoy my educational "AMC Timeline." My goal was to compile and clearly explain the chronology of events in recent AMC stock history in order to:
1. provide a permanent point of historical reference for "all things AMC stock";
2. educate new and veteran apes alike on exactly how we got to this point;
3. paint a picture as to why/when/how shorts and hedge funds are getting increasingly desperate;
4. show that all happenings along the way thus far are squarely in apes' favor, slowly contributing to—and virtually guaranteeing—our moon landing;
5. give *existing* AMC apes the confidence that they need to buy and hodl more AMC bananas;
6. give *potential* AMC apes the confidence that they need to become first-time investors in glorious AMC shares . . . and hodl them sumbiches with kung-fu gorilla grip!
Learn, enjoy, and spread the word!
NOTE: If you think that something is missing from the timeline, please send me a message. I'll gladly add it!
\--------------------
March 18, 2020:
Due to COVID-19, AMC CEO Adam Aron officially announces the temporary (but, ultimately, much-longer-than-expected) closure of all AMC theaters nationwide. The resulting loss of income was so extreme that the company was "a couple of weeks away" from bankruptcy multiple times before the squeeze on January 27, 2021 (per AMC CEO, Adam Aron in his April 14, 2021 interview with Trey's Trades).
[https://www.amctheatres.com/covid-19-update](https://www.amctheatres.com/covid-19-update)
December 17, 2020:
SEC states that Robinhood misled its customers about how it was paid by Wall Street firms to pass along customers' trading data and that the start-up had made money at the expense of its customers. Robinhood agrees to pay a $65 million fine to settle the charges, without admitting or denying guilt.

AMC secures $917M in new capital to avoid bankruptcy through at least the end of 2021, the breaking news of which was the catalyst for the squeeze the following day

January 27:
1- The first AMC squeeze took place. The stock price jumped 310% overnight, from $4.96 at the close on January 26 to $20.34 at the open on January 27. (The price briefly reached almost $25 in pre-market on January 27.)
\-----
2. Robinhood screwed apes by restricting apes' ability to buy shares of AMC. Only selling was allowed, which directly benefitted hedge funds by tanking the share price. That is arguably the main reason why Vlad was dragged before the House to testify. Robinhood also implemented a 100% margin requirement for equity in AMC and GME.

February 26:
In a ridiculously intense, back-and-forth battle between apes and HF turds that literally wasn't decided until the finals seconds of trading, Apes emerged victorious by securing a closing price of $8.01 after rallying from $7.90 within only 4 minutes remaining. Finishing the day above $8.00 was very significant because it forced shorts and hedge fund pantywaists to have to purchase hundreds of thousands of shares via options contracts. The figure of "$8.01" has since become a rallying cry for the AMC ape movement.
March 3:
Per AMC's proxy statement, ". . . 63,096,124 shares (including 3,732,625 treasury shares) of the total number of shares of Common Stock currently authorized remain available for issuance or may be reserved for issuance prior to any amendment to increase the authorized shares of Common Stock."
(Ape Translation: Adam Aron clarified in his April 14, 2021 interview with Trey's Trades that 20 million of those 63 million shares are accounted for. Still, that leaves AMC with 43M already-approved shares available to introduce to the market WITHOUT apes' permission. So, if apes approve the 500M new shares, that will make Aron much more inclined to actually use those 43M already-approved shares that are CURRENTLY the only bullets in his holster. Just because he vowed to not use any of the 500M new shares in 2021 doesn't mean he won't use any of the 43M. In fact, getting the 500M new shares gives Aron much more freedom and ability to dilute with those 43M already-approved shares. That's why my vote is "NO." After we moon, Aron can dilute to his heart's content, and at a much higher price per share, too!)

5. Last day to submit your comments to the SEC in support of the approval of Rule NSCC-2021-801! Rule NSCC-2021-801 is the proverbial "nail in the coffin" that reeeeeeeeeeeally has the hedge funders shitting their fancy little britches. A decision will be imminent after April 8. The SEC is currently deliberating whether to approve this SUPER CRITICAL Rule SR-NSCC-2021-801, which would allow the NSCC to assess the risk of members (i.e., hedge funds) on a daily basis and also demand a higher Secondary Liquidity Deposit (SLD) on a daily basis if a member risks defaulting. If approved, this rule will force hedge funds and market makers to pay more if they are "playing too risky." It will also allow the DTCC to liquidate a member’s positions if those positions jeopardize the NSCC’s ability to complete that day’s trades. Furthermore, the arguably most important aspect of Rule NSCC-2021-801 is that hedge funds would no longer be able to take advantage of an inexplicable lack of scrutiny to hide naked shorting, FTD shares, dark pool trades, ladder attacks, trading amongst themselves to artificially lower the price per share, etc. They will no longer have 30 days to "get their affairs in order," either. Transparency could be our newest and greatest weapon!

"The GameStop saga has led congressional Democrats to ask the SEC to reexamine the practice of payment for order flow, whereby stock brokers are paid to direct customer orders to market makers, as well as features in trading apps that critics say exemplify the use of so-called gamification techniques to encourage harmful overuse of those apps by retail investors. . . . The blowup of Archegos, meanwhile, could encourage Gensler to propose new rules for institutional investors that require the disclosure of short positions in stocks as well as derivative positions that mimic stock ownership."

3. Adam Aron interview with Trey's Trades!
Notable Adam Aron quotes from the interview, in sequential order:
* "I am in this for the long haul \[as CEO\], 5-10 more years."
* "I am a fellow shareholder."
* "Long-term, I am a bull. I own over 3,000,000 shares of AMC stock."
* "I want to continue growing the company each year moving forward."
* "Our main goal is to increase shareholder value."
* "Our company is under attack by short sellers."
* "I haven't sold a single share in 5 years, and don't plan to. I am a believer in this company."
* "The last time we authorized 500,000,000 shares, we didn't use any shares \[32,000,000\] until 3.5 years later! We didn't use shares again \[300,000,000\] until 3.5 years after that! Each time, AMC's stock price rose 200%-300%."
* "Flooding the market with 500,000,000 shares woud be crazy and foolish."
* "If AMC shareholders authorize the 500,000,000 shares, we will pledge in writing that we will not issue a single share in calendar year 2021!"
* "I'm tired of playing defense. I want to play offense."
* "We would only use shares to acquire other theater chains to instantly increase value for shareholders. Or to buy back debt at a significant discount to increase value. Or to entice landlords to accept stock NOW (at a discount) instead of waiting on cash over the course of 24-36 months."
* "If you don't vote at all, your vote will be counted as a "No" by default.
* "You own AMC. This is YOUR company!"
* "I will give you one prediction: 50 years from now, analysts will be claiming that XYZ is going to put AMC out of business. Why \[will AMC still be here\]? Because there is something magical about going to the movie theater! . . . Watching at home just doesn't have the same impact."
* "Going to the movie theater is a cheap date. The average movie ticket in the U.S. is about $10. Where else can you go to be entertained for 2-3 hours for only $10? You can't!"
* "In 2019, the movie theater industry sold 7 times as many tickets as the NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL, and MLS combined!"
* "I think that AMC's best days are still to come."
* "I say to those people who are betting against us: I don't think it's a good idea to bet against movie theaters. It's certainly not a good idea to bet against AMC. And I'd like to think that it's not a good idea to bet against Adam Aron, either."

It’s very telling that he was quickly sworn in on a Saturday, which had not happened since 1973 (recession) and 2008 (recession) in order to address fraud. This is a clear indication that Biden and the SEC are preparing to take similar, emergency action against fraudulent actors and market manipulators.

2. Bitcoin dropped 15%, as institutions are likely selling Bitcoin to raise the massive collateral that they now require—starting on April 22—to fully insure their lenders, including apes. (See "April 22" below.)
\-----
3. Is somebody in a hurry? LMAO! Lights in Citadel's corporate building suggest that employees worked feverishly at all hours throughout the weekend, including Sunday. Hmmm . . . . Desperate much? The stock market was closed, but guess what was open for trading: Bitcoin. I suppose that it could be a total coincidence that Bitcoin dropped 15% on Saturday, but I doubt it. The more likely scenario is that Citadel and other hedge funds caused Bitcoin to plummet by selling Bitcoin to raise a small portion of the collateral that they will need to at least partially insure the lent/borrowed synthetic shares that they overleveraged, as required on or before April 22. (See "April 22" below.)
April 19:
1. Morgan Stanley sells $6 billion in unsecured bonds to raise cash.

2. Infinity Q liquidates its hedge fund amid ramped-up U.S. regulatory probe into hedge fund valuation practices

April 20:
1- Date by which the share count—which will expose the number of synthetic shares—must be completed, which is 14 days before the shareholder meeting on May 4.
(HUGE NEWS: After the audit finished on Tuesday, April 20, there were suddenly zero (0) shares available to short the entire rest of the week, Wed-Fri! Did the count uncover an insane number of synthetic shares? Seems likely. That would obviously disallow additional share lending, which is what we saw.)
\-----
2. DTC-2021-007 proposed
". . . market transparency to accurately determine the number of shares loaned, identify proper share ownership, and calculate the risk associated with share loans (all of which is currently self-reported) to prevent over-leveraging in the future."

April 21:
1- AMC reaches all-time high in short interest at 23.5%
(Keep in mind that the short interest was only 11% before AMC's first squeeze on January 27! Plus, there are far more apes now.)
\-----
2. AMC reaches all-time record highs of 152,000,000 shares on loan 100% utilization
\-----
3. Borrow fee skyrockets to 26.7%

5. Charles Schwab raises margin requirement for shorting AMC to 300%!
[https://www.schwab.com/margin-updates](https://www.schwab.com/margin-updates)
April 22:
HUGE!
Rule 15c3-3(b)(3) goes into effect. It "requires broker-dealers entering into agreements with their customers (e.g., apes) who lend the broker-dealers fully-paid or excess margin securities to provide the securities lenders (e.g., apes) with collateral that fully secures the loans."
(Apish: "You overleveraged bastards must now have the cash or collateral ON-HAND to fully cover every share that you borrow/lend, including unrealized losses! And, if you fuckers need to borrow more each day, you must also sufficiently increase your cash-on-hand and collateral to be able to FULLY COVER each day. Yeah, it's not yet an official law or regulation, but we're going to enforce it on your asses starting April 22.")

May 26-27, 2021 (Wed-Thurs):

Big buys from institutions today.
They didn’t get bought “today” but great to see more institutions. And if they bought them to loan then they are utilized already. Let’s go $amc!!@Joshuajammes @matt_kohrs @KongPosting @TradesTrey @CEOAdam @live2beingu @Penny_Squeezer @smiff_sean https://t.co/KmVxBj0uMp

From what my sources say it’s way more than just those few shares traded at the lower level, I’m still doing DD on it and will advise.
Finally someone that believes
I know, it’s being hidden, go to your brokerage account and you will see, I have Eturd and it shows it also look for a shit ton of filing to the SEC yesterday from the Royal bank, it looks like a scene in the Big Short when the banks and the feds kept it all quite.
I’ve been looking into this. Royal Bank of Canada had a huge sell off Friday after hours it fell from $94.71 to $33.75. What’s even more odd is there are no headlines about it. Def a BB/HF fire sale. There are a lot of familiar names that are holders Citadel, Susquehanna, JP, etc
A lot of HF are affiliated with the Royal Bank of Canada including the ones shorting AMC, the ticker is RY, after hours yesterday it crashed from $94.71 to $33.75
Is this a sign that the banks are starting to bleed, Bank of Americans sold $15 Billion in bonds to the feds yesterday, JP Morgan Chase sold $13B yesterday and Goldman Sacks sold $6B, BTW $15B is an all time record, it beat the previous record by Chase of $13B earlier in the day, do your own DD but to me they are getting ready for a shit storm.
Actually the collapse (big short) of 2008 took almost 2 years because our government were in bed with the hedge funds, so we have to have patients, if our government (SEC) does their job after all of the new rules are in place we should have a squeeze.
Exactly, on my previous post a mistakenly said class A had more power when I meant to say class B.
I for one voted no but I wanted to let the others know not to get disappointed if the vote passed.
You are correct, I meant to say that class B shares have more voting power than class A common shares.
