AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC) stock is now making higher lows this year after shares fell in throughout 2022.
The movie theatre stock’s trendline has shifted during the first quarter of the new year as we begin to see share prices make higher lows and higher highs in 2023.
AMC is currently up more than +50% this year-to-date but was recently up as high as 110% towards the end of February.
On January, shares rose to $6.07 from $3.93 at the start of the year.
In early February share prices went up to $6.80, then to $8 towards the end of the month.
Shares have retested January’s levels around $6.07 at the start of March.
The macro trendline is now showing AMC Entertainment making higher lows and higher highs in 2023.
In technical analysis, this is seen as extremely bullish.
This is a trend we have not seen in AMC’s share price since 2021 when stocks surged to all-time highs.
One of the biggest roars in the retail community was during this specific timeline — when shares were establishing higher ground.
Will history repeat itself?
And will AMC Entertainment stock beat its all-time high record of $72 per share this year?
Let’s discuss it.
AMC Entertainment Trendline 2023
When looking at AMC’s year-to-date chart, we find that the stock has begun to make higher highs and higher lows in 2023.
We had a low of $3.85 in January, a low of $4.50 in February, and what seems to be a low of $6 in March so far.
These types of trends in the market may suggest big moves to come.
Not only has technical analysis shown us this in the past but we’ve witnessed it before in 2021 during the height of AMC’s popularity.
AMC’s trend today is a picture perfect snapshot of the months prior to the company’s massive price surge in June of 2021.
If retail investors are able to create enough buying momentum to raise share prices, short sellers may incur a margin call and be forced to close their short positions unless they can meet margin requirements.
And as we know, it’s become much harder to borrow the stock due to the wild fees — recently reaching more than 731%.
Short sellers have been able to keep the lid on AMC from surging again, but for how much longer?
Recent AMC Developments
AMC Entertainment said during its earnings report that it is not out of the woods yet, but the company has made progress towards paying its debt and has stayed afloat despite burning through its capital.
AMC Perfectly Popcorn will be sold in more than 2,000 Walmart stores across the country by April — a means to increase revenue.
The company also plans to issue a credit card for customers and capitalize on that business venture as well.
Adam Aron and board members were recently sued for the issuance of its equity APE, which listed in the market back in August of 2022.
The lawsuit is expected to extend or limit the voting rights of AMC’s new proposals to convert APE shares back into common shares of AMC stock, and for a 1-for-10 reverse stock split.
It is still uncertain how the market will react to these proposals.
A reverse stock split will mean the stock will cost more to buy, potentially limiting buy volume from current and new investors.
If AMC’s CTB continues to increase, it may also incentivize short sellers to get out of the play, unless they’re willing to wait for fees to decrease before beginning to short the stock back down.

Will AMC Stock Continue to Make Higher Lows and Higher Highs?
AMC’s current trend remains bullish.
In the past, we’ve seen this trendline lead shares higher and higher despite attempts to bring it back down.
At some point, when pressure is released, it becomes harder to keep the stock from rising.
Is AMC getting ready to for a new all-time high?

Am concerned about the planned dilution of stock by incorporating Ape shares as AMC shares. I think they should leave things alone, it’s like throwing another unknown into the mix. Frank what is your opinion on this?
It makes things a little more complicated for shareholders, no doubt – but it’s the company’s best bet for staying afloat. I think investors should create a plan and identify whether AMC is worth investing in long term, or not, and then make a decision.
