Hey thanks I am Really new to Twitter!!! I mean like since may I think maybe longer-so I just saw your response to me! Hey thanks! You are a good guy Trey! My kinda people! I will I just want to make sure I don’t blow it when it’s time to sell/and yes I know you aren’t a financial adviser 😁
I’m sorry I didn’t catch that. This is what I heard

*NOT Financial ADVICE **but a good read
For all of the new baby apes. I know a lot of you have questions, and I thought it would be helpful to provide you with some overall context to understand the significance of the movement you just joined.
Here’s the cliff note version. Covid hit last March and a couple of big hedge funds concocted a plan to drive AMC into bankruptcy by “shorting” it and make a ton of money in the process.
You “short” a company when you think the value of the stock is going to go down. When the country locked down and AMC closed their doors and their revenue literally went to $0 overnight, it was a no brainer play for the hedge funds.
So they started borrowing millions and millions of shares from brokers and sold them “short” at the market price at the time, and they pocketed the cash from the sale. The idea is that the stock price will drop, you can buy them back later at a lower price, and then return the borrowed shares to the broker and keep the difference. If the company goes bankrupt, the stock goes to $0 and they don’t have to buy anything back at all and keep everything. This is what they were banking on. They’ve done this to company after company over the years, and they saw this as a sure thing as any.
Well a bunch of people on Reddit (affectionately known as “Apes”) noticed they were trying to drive AMC, GameStop and many other retail and mortar stores into bankruptcy, and banded together to buy up all the available shares, driving up the share price. This resulted in the mini squeeze in January. But Apes didnt sell after that. And the hedge funds didn’t cover their short positions either (I.e. buy back the millions of shares they had borrowed and sold short).
The Apes kept buying and buying, and holding and holding, and once the real shares were all bought up, the hedge funds doubled, tripled and quadrupled down on their short position and started making synthetic shares (IOUs) and selling those shares into the market trying to drive the price down. When the price dropped, instead of selling like the hedge funds wanted them to, Apes said “thank you very much for the discount” and kept buying more and holding. Nobody has sold for the past 5 months since the movement really got started in January, and more and more people are jumping in and adding more everyday.
Now because of all of the synthetic IOU shares the hedge funds have created to keep shorting AMC, us Apes likely own more way more shares than are actually supposed to exist (as much as 6x-8x by some estimates). But real or synthetic, each share the hedge funds sold short is a liability on their books that must be bought back in order to close out their position.
They literally have hundreds of millions of shares, possibly billions, to buy back, and we own them all. They have to buy them back eventually, and every day that the borrowed short shares are still on loan, the hedge funds are paying interest to the brokers they borrowed them from. Meanwhile it costs us nothing to hold.
Things started to come to a head a couple weeks ago because the interest rate on the borrowed shares was reported to be as high as 250% (1-2% is normal for your average stock), so the hedge funds are collectively paying hundreds of millions of dollars every day just to hold their position, and a lot of them are starting to miss the payments and margin calls could be coming very soon.
That’s when the fun starts. At that point, the broker forces them to buy back all of the hundreds of millions of shares they have borrowed and sold short, because the broker doesn’t want the hedge funds’ recklessness to fall onto them. And remember, the Apes own all the shares and aren’t selling. The hedge funds can only buy a share for what an Ape is willing to sell it for, and us Apes really love our shares.
Once the margin calls start, the computers just start buying back all of the shares at the best available price no matter what that price may be. They all have to be bought back. Everything must be settled. And if the cheapest price an ape is willing to sell for is 1,000, or 10,000 or 100,000, well then that’s what the hedge funds will be forced to buy the borrowed shares back for in order to close out their position.
Apes are going to hold and hold and hold driving up the price further and further to make the hedge funds bleed as much as possible until they are inevitably forced to buy back their millions of shares. They will need to buy our shares, and we set the price. And remember, it costs us nothing to hold. This movement has been building for the past 5 months, but you just heard about it yesterday. One thing Apes don’t do is set dates for the squeeze. Nobody knows when it will happen, all we know for sure is that the math says it’s inevitable as long as we hold.
I only see three possibilities as to how this all plays out:
1. AMC goes bankrupt and the hedgies win (please note this is not going to happen. AMC has enough liquidity to last them through 2022 and the most passionate shareholder base in the universe. Not to mention a pretty badass CEO who has completely embraced the new shareholder base)
2. Hedge funds are somehow able to meet their daily margin payments to avoid being margin called, and they strategically close out their short positions over time, causing a sustained Tesla type squeeze over a period of a year or more (remember, apes aren’t selling until we’re at the moon)
3. Hedge funds will be margin called and forced to buy everything all at once and we’ll have the most violent squeeze in the history of short squeezes. The price is infinite as long as apes hold.I wouldn’t bet on #1, #2 will require patience, and #3 will be absolute insanity (and in my personal non-financial advisor opinion is the most likely outcome). Either way, we’re winning the battle. This beautiful movement is growing by the day, and we can hold longer than they can.
Never before has anything like this happened where millions of regular people have been able to band together to take on the billionaires who have been screwing them over time and time again, and be able to actually hit them where it really hurts
New Ape here! So wish I got in on this when the price was in the teen's. Only have 41 Shares but I'm holding onto them until the bitter end! 🚀🦍
if your investing experience is less than 10 years start with 5-6 portfolio. don't bet big on any single company, learn the process first.. initially diversification is not that bad, it really worked for me in initial years. remember that protection of capital is a must
AMC could be the next Netflix and even utube and Amz if we r willing to wait and invest more monthly. Hope amc do outdoor theater too.
I quote "to get somewhere you gotta take chances"
I loved that trey
I feel my chances are pretty good
Let's get it, was waiting for such a great buying opportunity. Thanks hedgies see you at the moon my fellow gorilla gang don't skip class baby!
I hope so I lost 1k and accidentally sold got margined called so and had a motorcycle accident been out work for 4 weeks got a ticket (I got hit wasn’t my fault ) shits going down this is only good thing going for me xx holder
Trey…I need your honest opinion. Isn't the vote being cancelled for future dilution in 2022 only making shorts positions stronger in their conviction? I get we are holding for other reasons than fundamentals, but they aren't. Fundamentals mean everything to shorts. By the vote being cancelled, doesn't that just make hedgies more bearish knowing AMC won't have more liquid capital next year to help pay off debts/make new acquisitions? I have been holding since $9, I love your vids and have been watching since March, and even my mom watches and follows you on Twitter now. I need to understand why apes are happy about this when it wasn't even possible for AMC to dilute for capital until 2022….makes no sense to me. Hope you're feeling well! I know my why, and want to hold, but I need your opinion/thoughts on this. Thanks!
You're either the best tweaker impersonator in the world or you are a real tweaker. Forget about AMC. Let's take a look at you and your entire delivery process. Do you want to be perceived as a speed freak? Because that's exactly how you act. I've known several over the years and you exhibit classic speed freak behavior. Perhaps it's just some strange coincidence. You speak so fast you swallow your words. your jerky mannerisms and general jitteriness stand out. My advice is to take a few Valium before your film yourself. You may be a good dude but there's no way to take you seriously when you come off the way you do. Your manner and delivery spoil your credence.
Well put ClayBro! I wish we can make your video go viral! I wish you can get a video with Trey trades! You guys would do a great video? I’m going to leave him in a message in his comments… maybe you can email/text or what ever you have to do, so we can let all the apes know what the main purpose of this video.
The price swings do not scare me!! I’m holding!!! 💎💎💎🙌🙌🙌🙌💎🙌💎🙌
"When you don’t have a lot of money, I think its worth the risk to take some heavy shots and high conviction stocks that you’ve done your due diligence and research on to limit risk. You want to take calculated risks to get places in life. "
New investor learned a lot over past 6 months. I don’t even have any feelings anymore. If it goes up a few dollars great.. if it goes down a. Few dollars great. That sh*t dips, I buy more. I could careless are this point, let me know when the squeeze happens! Everything else Whatever, whatever….I’m hodl no matter what!!!
Feels good to hear you support that approach to building and protecting wealth. Sometimes, it's just worth the risk for a better future.
Better late then never trey miss you today I’ll try and make it tomorrow morning I’ve been feeling down I need some trey energy you always make me smile thanks for that I appreciate you more then you know trey thanks brother ape 🦍 🙌💎💯🦍💪🏼👯♀️
I might not ever sell lol just because I don't know, holding is my thing. I just like to have things and keep them
I don’t even want the money for myself it’s for my family… that’s my reason why and apes are a part of my family now too 🦍
your videos take a long time to translate , you lose followers outside your language , More than 5 days for a translation is a long time.
If the translated videos cannot be seen on the same day, it is not interesting to follow you, we will not find out. And five days later it is no longer interesting to see the translation.
we are many apes outside your language, please fix this.
The stock market doesn't care if you're smart or have a degree from the best school. At the end of the day, stock trading is a contest of discipline. Ultimately, those who do the best manage the risk/reward relationship the best. And that takes more than just intelligence. Fortunately for me I came across Lena Marian Nebel while searching for answers on the internet. Under her tutelage I was able to avoid making mistakes and loosing money. I am up 150% in profit currently
