Welcome back to the channel everyone today, i want to go through the many catalysts coming up next week for amc. There's a lot to go through today so be sure to stay tuned and let's make some money, but before i dive into the video, i just want to give a massive shout out to everybody. That's part of the team in the private discord and a massive specific shout out to norcal bucks, who won the 600 giveaway in the private discord. I give everybody updated news due diligence and information about amc, other stocks and cryptocurrencies as well.

So if you want, all of that, then be sure to check out the link down in the description below to the private discord, and i want to dive straight in with the key information. So a look ahead for gamestop and amc next week, a week of margin, requirement changes and other news, hello, motos. Today's look ahead should be back to its more readily digestible size rather than the monster recaps and look aheads i've put out recently. If you want to check out some of this guy's other due diligence post, then be sure to check out mac attack on reddit and his twitter and his youtube etf stuff on tuesday amc goes from the msci micro cap to the msci mid cap.

This means the micro cap and all funds that track it will sell their shares in amc. Conversely, the mid cap and all funds that track that will buy amc shares. This will give us an overall net buy much like when gamestop moved from the russell 2000 to the russell 1000. It will add value, but it won't necessarily be the mother of all short squeezes trigger just a nice added bonus.

There has also been unverified reports of amz's waiting with the russell 2000 changing given today. I've seen three different figures and nothing official from russell's themselves or for any other channel. I'm not reporting any of those figures. I'm marking this as speculative good news at best and outright misinformation at worst as such, i will take a watching brief on this point for now.

Obviously, a lot of those etfs like the russell 2000 rebalance their position holdings every few weeks or every few months or maybe even every day. Therefore, as some stocks grow and shrink in market cap, the russell 2000 will change their holdings of shares to reflect the portion distribution. For example, let's say specifically that the russell 2000 wants to hold eight percent of their etf in amc stock, but because amc went up 20 percent over the last week. Maybe it's now 10 of their entire etf and therefore the russell 2000 might need to sell some shares of amc, or maybe they need to buy some more margin requirement changes.

These will kick in on either wednesday and friday. Three things. First, the way margin requirements are calculated is changing. This should favor higher collateral needed or more margin calls, which is on wednesday.

Secondly, the amount required as a liquid deposit is increasing from ten thousand dollars to two hundred and fifty thousand dollars. What a lot of apes are missing is this isn't necessarily per entity? This is per account so say. If blackrock or citadel has 20 accounts, their margin requirement goes from 200 000 dollars for all 20 accounts to 5 million for all 20 accounts, and there's been some reports of citadel having up to 2 000 offshore accounts. So therefore, their margin requirements could go up significantly.

2, 000 times 250 000. To be specific, so it's a big difference. It won't necessarily cause more margin calls, but it will mean that some funds either have to sell assets to pony up the cash or lock away from the readily available cash. This is on friday.

Basically, some funds may need to cover their shorts in mc just to free up additional cash to make those margin, requirements or maybe sell off some of their long positions again to make the margin requirements. Thirdly and finally, a reminder has gone out that certain types of assets can't be included as collateral, one of which is bonds purchased through reverse repos. The actual wording doesn't state this, but the way it's worded means these will be included to be specific. Of that.

250. 000, only actual cash can be used to meet that 250 000 requirement. They can't give bonds or promissory notes or anything like that. It has to be tangible cash, not necessarily notes and coins, but you get the picture.

This means that for any entities near to a margin call they'll either have to sell assets to get more cash or start facing more margin calls again. This is on wednesday. Next up on the list is the end of the eviction moratorium. This is one that's a bit sad.

On the one hand, it will lead to a downturn in the market which makes the mother of all short squeezes triggering more likely. On the other hand, it means that people are going to be losing their homes and places of safety and everything that comes with that. Obviously, it's never ever good that people that have lost their jobs and their income are now going to be evicted and potentially end up homeless. Yes, it may cause the mother of all short squeezes, but at the end of the day, humanity is more important than a short squeeze, and i think everybody should remember that at the bottom of their hearts.

This is why, after the short squeeze, i'm going to be doing absolutely everything i can to give back more to my local community and also to different charities around the world. This won't be an overnight thing, but the ripple effect will lead to lower house prices and, more importantly, for us lower asset balances for the financial entities that bought those said houses. Nothing will happen overnight, but this is bullish long term for us just remember, don't dance and that's a quote from the big short it's going to be expensive for renters, to leave their homes and also very expensive for landlords to evict tenants and that's effectively going to Drain cash out of the economy that could be going back in to stimulate the economy and could be going into consumer spending. It means the landlords are going to have less money to pay their mortgages with and therefore less money also to spend at shops and to continue improving the us economy.

We've also got the gamestop earnings release a bit further ahead than next week. We have gamestop's earnings release on the 8th of september, almost always on all earnings for gamestop and amc. We've seen buy the rumor and sell the news so expect some upwards movement, independent of other factors. From now until the earnings gamestop nft still awaiting with eager breath.

The nft announcement, my gut, tells me if they've not announced it now and with earnings so close that they'll hold off on any announcement until earnings at the earliest it may come later. Speculation is still abound as to what nft may hold i'm still hoping. For the second hand, digital resale blockchain, we've then got september 17th deep out of the money, puts looming, an additional option chain analysis and a disclaimer, crea and mac attack have both put out due diligence about these deep in the money puts and their purpose. I actually explained these deep out the money puts in a separate video a few days ago, and these deep out, the money puts, are being specifically used to hide legit short interest, not cover legit short interest, just hide it effectively.

A hedge fund that currently has a short position takes out a call option and exercises it uses those shares to cover the actual short position. They have the legal short position and then also takes out a far out the money put to effectively replicate that short position. That they once had as we approach the large block of september 17th options, the price is going to get more volatile. This is largely due to the fact that a single move up or down will have a chain effect of hedging and d hedging that will cause the price to become more volatile.

As i started saying last week, i didn't think i was going to be right but still gave my price predictions and logic turns out. I got pretty close. That being said this week, and indeed every week until the week ending september 17th has passed, is going to be more and more difficult to predict using my style of analysis. This is the reason i say to get multiple sources for both information and predictions.

It's also why predictions shouldn't focus on when the mother of all short squeezes and how much the mother of all short squeezes will go. But again, this is just my opinion, stay on the micro scale in terms of price movements and dates, and this is why i don't like giving specific price predictions and specific date predictions, because we all know the moas is going to happen. It's just a case of when and at the end of the day, no one can predict the future with a hundred percent accuracy. If they can i'd, probably be pretty worried and i'd probably say it was just a very good guess.

Yes, you can use things like ta or option theory or cycle theory, but at the end of the day, amc is being manipulated. Therefore, anything like ta, that's based off historical events, can't necessarily be used 100 accurately because they can just manipulate anything the way they want. It as a standard options disclaimer, he says i use options as part of my analysis and predictions. I don't condem or encourage buying options.

They are high risk high reward. I don't have any personally, as i don't have the bankroll to back buying them in a way that would be an investment opposed to just a gamble. You're an adult. Do your own research on them and see if buying them versus shares is right for you.

Personally, i buy and hold shares and use the chain for insight, and i personally prefer buying shares as well, because at the end of the day, shares don't expire. Yes, options can be good. If you know something is going to happen that week or next week and you're 100 certain it's going to happen, but in this squeeze play nothing can be 100. Certain final note on options: retail is not the one doing the bulk of buying and selling of the call and put contracts.

At the time of writing this. There was 141 million shares of amc represented in calls both in and out of the money. So, as requested i'll start putting the options figures for this week, so apes can see what i mean by relative to previous or upcoming weeks. Currently, there's 24 000 calls in the money, and there was only 15 000 calls last week.

Currently, there's 75 000 calls out of the money and there was 83 000 last week. That is bullish because there's more calls in the money and less calls out of the money. A great start, there's 7 000 puts in the money and 15 000 last week. There's also 68 000 puts out of the money and only 51 000 last week, which again is bullish as well, because there's less puts in the money and more puts out of the money again overall, very good, as we can see roughly the same open interest.

More calls and less puts are starting in the money, meaning some hedging will have gone in favor of the cool side for calls. We've got decent open interest at eighty dollars, fifty dollars and forty dollars. Eighty dollars normally would be a total yolo play with no hedging. However, due to the increased volatility and september 17th looming, there will be some hedging going on.

We've got a nice solid ramp built from 35 to 52 and after that, we're patchy from 52 to 80.. All in all, i wouldn't take much to reinforce for puts. We've got a decent open interest at thirty dollars, twenty nine dollars and twenty five dollars there's a slide all the way down to ten dollars. However, the ones at the lower end won't be hedged for and won't have been bought for.

The purpose of putting downward pressure on amc, but as a way to shift short interest into fail to delivers or swap filter delivers from one short hedge fund to another. He then also gives his predictions that i don't specifically want to cover, because again i don't like giving specific price or date predictions. And finally, i've got some great news for amc in the long term, which is that movies aren't dead. Spider-Man trailer breaks the world record for most views in 24 hours on youtube.

Therefore, it's very very evident that the movies and amc as a cinema chain is still very, very important to the world as a whole. Clearly, a lot of people want to watch the new spider-man. I imagine there'll, be an exclusivity deal and it'll be specifically in theaters for a period of time. Before it's available on streaming platforms, therefore, we could potentially see a giant box office breaking record for amc theaters in the not too distant future.
