Re: GameStop
Justin, Uber, Foxed, Jordan... op stocktwits.com en heel informeel enkele avonden per week op Youtube kanaal van Roaring Kitty om 01h in de life chat. Ze verwijderen wel redelijk vlug hun berichten uit de chat.LaCucaracha schreef: ↑3 november 2020, 22:19 De comments-secties bij de SA-artikels van Justin Dopierala zijn precies beetje dood?
Waar halen jullie je info nog?
: Biden’s capital gains tax hike
Gaat nu beginnen.
Het kan heel langdradig en informeel zijn, maar dikwijls zijn er wel enkele info rijke momenten.
groetjes, misschien tot op den chat nu direct...

Re: GameStop
Het is hier zo stil? Hebben jullie je volledige positie nog? Of al stukjes verkocht?
Markten zijn euforisch, maar Gamestop blijft zo wat hangen tussen de 11,5 en 12 €...

Re: GameStop
Ik heb ze nog allemaal met nog steeds een aantal geschreven calls. Waarvan een deel ITM en een deel OTM.
De calls terugkopen zou ondertussen wel voor al deze posities winstgevend zijn, wat bij de hogere koersen een tijdje niet het geval was.
Gaming bedrijven zaten de voorbije 2 dagen ook in het verkoophoekje omdat zij tot hiertoe bij de winnaars van Corona gerekend werden en we hebben gemerkt dat het vaccin nieuws een sectorrotatie inleidde.
Ik denk dat dit zeker voor Gamestop een overdreven negatieve reactie is. Eerst en vooral zijn er nog (cruciale) verkoopsmaanden te gaan voordat er van een vaccin impact sprake zal zijn. Bovendien zal Biden eerst en vooral beleid voeren tegen de verspreiding van het virus. Dit betekent dus dat de Amerikanen veel sociale activiteiten nog langere tijd zullen mogen vergeten.
Onduidelijk voor mij hoe de klassieke retail het eindejaar in gaat in de VS.

Re: GameStop
Dus 3 maand minder interesten zouden ze betalen door deze vervroegd terug te kopen?
6,75% van 125 miljoen gedeeld door 4 = 2,11 miljoen.
Echt veel impact kan dat niet meer hebben

Re: GameStop
RC Ventures
Subject: Maximizing Stockholder Value by Becoming the Ultimate Destination for Gamers
Given that our attempts to privately engage with you since the summer have yielded
little progress, we feel compelled to send a clear message to the Board today: GameStop’s leadership should
immediately conduct a strategic review of the business and share a credible plan for seizing the
tremendous opportunities in the rapidly-growing gaming sector
We recognize that the Board may feel it is insulated from stockholder scrutiny after adding new directors this
past spring and seeing a recent stock price uptick (which only came on the heels of RC Ventures filing its 13D).
We also understand you may expect that the new console cycle will at least temporarily appear to validate the
Company’s adherence to an outdated business model that is overdependent on brick-and-mortar sales. In our
view, all of these assumptions are faulty and short-sighted.
GAMESTOP’S CHALLENGES STEM FROM INTERNAL INTRANSIGENCE AND AN
UNWILLINGNESS TO RAPIDLY EMBRACE THE DIGITAL ECONOMY
Unfortunately, it is evident to usthat GameStop currently lacksthe mindset, resources and plan needed to become
a dominant sector player. The Company remains in long-term secular decline due to its apparent unwillingness
to pivot with urgency and grow with gamers. As evidence, stockholders have seen the value of their equity
decline by nearly 68% over the past three years and decline by nearly 85% over the past five years.
2
GameStop is also one of the most shorted stocks in the entire market, which speaks volumes about investors’
lack of confidence in the current leadership team’s approach.
GAMESTOP’S LEADERSHIP MUST PROMPTLY PIVOT FROM A BRICK-AND-MORTAR MINDSET
TO A TECHNOLOGY-DRIVEN VISION
RC Ventures understands that Chief Executive Officer George Sherman has substantial experience working for
large brick-and-mortar retailers such as Advance Auto Parts, Best Buy and Target. Regrettably, Mr. Sherman
appears committed to a twentieth-century focus on physical stores and walk-in sales despite the transition to an
always-on digital world. The continuation of the pandemic is only accelerating this transition and, in turn,
requiring businesses to take bold steps to compete.
If GameStop takes practical steps to cut its excessive real estate costs and hire the right talent, it will have the
resources to begin building a powerful e-commerce platform that provides competitive pricing, broad gaming
selection, fast shipping and a truly high-touch experience that excites and delights customers. This is the type of
world-class infrastructure that was constructed at Chewy, which is worth multiples of GameStop’s current
market capitalization.
There is no doubt in our minds that GameStop has the flexibility to evolve into a technology-driven sector leader.
As you know:
• The Company’s average lease duration is approximately 24 months. Now is the time to identify
duplicative, underperforming stores and plan to forgo lease renewals.
• Non-core operations in Europe and Australia can be streamlined or sold in order to reduces losses and
potentially generate cash. While the Australian market has shown signs of life, it is not nearly big or
strong enough to offset the losses linked to the Company’s hundreds of stores across European nations.
• In addition, near-term increases in cash flow stemming from the console cycle can also help finance the
future (provided that capital is not misallocated to risky initiatives).
• Taken together, these factors can fuel the necessary investments that GameStop could be making to
delight and retain gamers well into the future.
Taking the right steps in 2020 and 2021 can enable GameStop to own a bigger share of the market when
estimated industry sales explode to more than $200 billion per year in 2023. We contend the Company’s
sales should be growing at least in line with the market – not going in the opposite direction. Significantly
upgrading e-commerce can provide for greater revenue capture across larger gaming catalogs, digital content
and community experiences, online trade-ins, streaming services and Esports.
WE URGE GAMESTOP TO ADOPT THE RIGHT ROADMAP TO VALUE CREATION NOW
RC Ventures hopes this letter provides the Board with a clear sense of GameStop’s addressable challenges and
clear opportunities. We have stopped short of outlining a detailed turnaround plan in this correspondence because
the onus is on the Board and Mr. Sherman to do their jobs and produce a viable strategy. In this spirit, we urge
you to quickly provide stockholders with a credible and publicly-available roadmap for cost containment,
prioritizing profitable retail locations and geographic markets, and building the e-commerce ecosystem
gamers deserve.
Please be advised that RC Ventures is not interested in receiving a lone seat on GameStop’s ten-member Board.
It is not enticing to become an isolated stockholder advocate on a Board that has overlooked years of digital
revenue opportunities and presided over massive value destruction without assuming full accountability. We
want GameStop’s leaders to do their jobs and implement a strategy for bringing the Company into the 21st
century.
Sincerely,
Ryan Cohen

Het lijkt op een vijandige overname...
RC wil puur online, hij staat lijnrecht tegenover management met hun winkelketen.
Waarschijnk zal hij ergens in de volgende maanden een bod doen. Hij gaat in ieder geval voor niet minder dan de volledige leiding.
Misschien is de +10% van gisteren RC die bijkoopt...

Re: GameStop
Ik ga alleszins niet long blijven om de eventuele transformatie van deze groep af te wachten.
Al mijn stuks zijn momenteel geblokkeerd door geschreven calls op $11 (jan), $12 (dec) en $15 (jan).
Cohen heeft dezelfde angst dan ik, een zeer goed kwartaal zou de impressie wekken dat brick & mortal retail nog veel toekomst heeft.

Re: GameStop
Interessante ontwikkeling, benieuwd naar de eventuele koersreactie op het nieuws zo meteen. Voorbeurs voorlopig wat lager.
Mijn aandelen worden niet meer uitgeleend: neemt de short interest af? Of loopt Binckbank weer een week achter?
