I have a coworker who is all over AMC and doing a small buy in may be worth it just to calm him down. He's already planning where to buy his second or third house.

You need to do your own research before listening to just Motley Fool.

AMC’s CEO vowed to not add $500M shares the other day. The initial 500M shares was discussed in order to bait hedge funds to further short the stock. It’s at 100% utilization, meaning every share is bought or shorted already. Any additional short positions requires heavy interest on each share.

No one is selling the stock either. Vanguard and Blackrock bought like 20% of the company, because they want to take down rival HF Citadel Capital.

You didn't address the major issue which is too much debt. Also maybe that movies continue to suck and no one is going right now. The Academy Awards went over like a lead balloon. What's the upside, Top Gun?
Dilution can be real, but obviously in recent market world the public desire for a stock can override that concern.

I’m not holding AMC because it’s a good company, it has debt yes. But it’s in a unique situation where debt doesn’t really matter here.

The whole point of holding AMC is to get it to short squeeze. When it squeezes there will be a big sell off and no more debt.

I thought GameStop should’ve 100% issues new shares during that complete nonsense a while back.

buy the damn strip malls you’re in to diversify your income, upgrade your e-commerce platform. Lots of things they could’ve done for a stock that was literally trading for at least 30x what it’s really worth

Given AMC's a Russell 2000 component, which % of the "like 20% of the company" shares do you speculate Vanguard and BLK recently bought to purportedly "take down rival HF Citadel Capital" versus the 2 fund managers just buying shares consistent with their Russell 2000-indexed fund requirements?
 
Toss out a couple solar-enablers recently buying on dips: HASI (solar infrastructure/services REIT) and SHLS (recent IPO, tech/infrastructure, 1st earnings report Monday). Potentially, more buy and holds than for day trading. After this post, of course both may solar crash and burn.

Noting the US' belatedly announced plans to limit Indian arrival flights and lessons learned after failures to act with mainland China, western Europe, and Hong Kong 1Q20, I'm adding more FLIN on current dips. As tragic as the ongoing SARS-2 mutations and government failures are for the Indian people, the South Asian nation will eventually bounce back. LT perspective, ideally similar to successes after late March-May buys in the US and subsequently in Europe.

Last time I ran the numbers it was around 14%, with Vanguard and Blackrock increasing their positions by 50% - 70% each quarter.

He has no clue what he is talking about and is a real danger to anyone that pays attention to him on this board. Saying things like "debt doesn't matter here" and "when it squeezes there will be a big sell off and no more debt" make absolutely no sense. In addition to what you correctly point out about two index managers buying what's in their index per their mandate.

What they buy is a result of 1) the company's weighting in its underlying index, and 2) their fund flows. So 50%-70% each quarter is meaningless unto itself. You have no idea what their fund flows were, nor do you have any idea what they may have bought as active vs passive. You're just making stuff up.

You can track how much they buy positions into the company on a quarterly basis.
