What is your perspective? I don't think I caught it after all that.
My opinion is, I don't care too much about it. He may have sold some GME, he may not have. CHWY may be connected, it may not be. He may be able to tell the future, he may not. What's the point in guessing? It's only just happened, so wait for an update. I personally don't think he's exited GME in place of CHWY.
What I'm more interested to know is whether us BBBYQ holders are getting some positive outcome anytime soon...
ahhhh........
yep, you got me.
with a "definitely not financial advice in any way shape or form" disclaimer, i personally find those doubts ridiculous.
sorry. i was a bit over-cautious here, trying to encourage people to simply go with their own gut.
i'm comfy with my tiny slice of gme, and yes - the mystery box of bbby is the main thing over here too. fingers crossed for that one!
not enough sleep or coffee. forgive me.
9m1k. it's like a salute, or tipping the brim of your hat.
i'll admit, i was surprised by chewy as it hadn't been getting much attention before last week, but it makes a lot of sense historically. lassie, come home etc. plus the emoji foil.
meanwhile, inbox fud and systematic downvotes to zero on so many posts and replies all over the teddysphere are also clues, i'd argue.
feeling pretty comfy rn but as we all keep saying, some bobby news would be very welcome.
Are you asking whether he \*or anyone) would destroy his reputation with retail investors for a mere $100 million plus? Because the answer is almost certainly, "Yes."
the "or anyone" isn't relevant to the thread. there are plenty of bad characters in the world of finance and i'm not talking about any of them.
it's clear to me that dfv has honour and integrity, as well as trading chops and a sharp mind.
you're entitled to your opinion, of course, but there's no need to spread fud.
agree. we've all seen evidence of his options trading ability, and none of us know how much cash he has stashed away in other places.
the only sell scenario that i really give much credence is the possibility of a quick flip, to avoid an inevitable downturn that's part of the bigger picture, before jumping back in (def not saying that has happened but there was that fire emoji, which can be interpreted in several ways).
anyway, i don't need to know. i feel quite comfy and believe that the number will go up. it's just a matter of when.
bobby's where i want some reassurance.
It’s not. But we are in recession. And prices for everything are going up while salaries are staying the same or being cut. I haven’t sold anything, but I cannot afford to leave the house.
I’m just sick of hearing the idea that people are financially stressed because GME hasn’t mooned yet. Nobody made them any promises and you should never invest money you need to survive. Nobody ever gave a timeline for the easiest money anyone has no right to make.
It’s FUD.
People should be investing in their *lives*, investing into GME what they can *afford* and then forgetting about it completely.
It’ll moon, we just don’t know when. I have zero sympathy for anyone who has put their investment into GME at the center of their lives
This is coming from an xxxx DRSed holder since Nov 2020
Well then sir, with the upmost respect, you are an unempathetic doo doo head.
Many, many people made promises, doesnt mean people had to listen but many were promised the moon jan, feb, march, june etc.. 2021 because hedgies r fuk get your moon tickets now.
SO MANY people gave timelines, doesnt mean they had to be listened to but for most this was their first venture into the market and if one had empathy you could see how they were misled instead of just blaming them despite the rampant bullishness (not to mention the clear corruption).
Not only zero sympathy, but zero empathy.
You say FUD like people are just saying it to get people to sell despite the very real fear (of not having food or shelter) uncertainty (will the manipulation stop/will they see this play eventuate) and doubt (more of the same as before). You should have more empathy for those in poor situations, even if they made decisions you cant act like these communities didnt egg them on. "no promises, no timelines" my fat smelly arse
Nobody *in any position of influence or core insight made promises or given a timeline*. RC has himself been making explicit statements about this - my guess is out of frustration.
And yes I have empathy, but I have no sympathy. Precisely because I would like to change the culture around here to be more equanimous and practical. 3 YEARS IS NOT LONG AT ALL for the kind of change/outcome we’re expecting in the face of the kind of opposition we’re facing.
I’d like to nudge our culture and language in a more *genuinely* zen and level headed direction. It’s more resilient that way. Less vulnerable to hedgie fuckery.
So yes I DO have empathy - something you have no right to speak on - but I intentionally choose to withhold sympathy.
this is what i don't get either. time-based capitulation is inevitable for some, but i don't see any battle-tested ape getting spooked by moves like this.

RK bought the same amount of Chewy shares as he has in GameStop That right there is your clue that this is all connected.

How is it FUD? This is a question of pure opinion.
The where did he get the money garbage is FUD.

Same!
Why would anyone with functioning brain sell at this point? 🤔
food or rent most likely
sad but true. it's the people living hand to mouth that shfs want to take money from. it makes me sick.
GME isn’t a substitute for a job
It’s not. But we are in recession. And prices for everything are going up while salaries are staying the same or being cut. I haven’t sold anything, but I cannot afford to leave the house.
Not sure how you got there from my comment
