Dear fellow ape, did you buy AMC stock at a high price? By high price I mean to the point where you’re currently negative on paper.
If so, I want to help you navigate this temporary season. See, majority of us have been there before. If you’ve read some of my other blog posts you’ll know at some point I was negative $9K+!
I remember seeing my position in AMC plummet and thinking, wow.. How soon will things get better? Here’s what you need to know.
Welcome to Franknez.com – today’s message is to our new apes that have joined the movement. I’m excited you’re here today.
Lets get started!
Things did not get better so soon, and I know you can certainly relate. So why did I keep holding? Why didn’t I just say, “screw this, I’m cutting my losses”?
The answer is simple. The short interest data really built a strong conviction towards the stock within me. I remember I didn’t even tell my fiancé how much money I was under at first because I knew it was temporary, and it was only on paper.
I understood that if I held, my losses would shrink and I would eventually come up breaking even. Once I broke even I knew that I would then profit soon after.
Here’s Why It’s Important To Hold
Had I sold and cut my losses, I would have never experienced my current gains in AMC stock. And if you’re curious to know, yes I’m still holding but more on that in a bit.
As I was holding the stock, my losses eventually got smaller and smaller as AMC’s price action moved upwards. This is when the stock had jumped up to $20 per share back in January.
I bought in at $14 and the stock dropped to $5 per share. I didn’t begin profiting until at least 3 months later. The stock consolidated a lot around the $9 range. And once it broke $14, AMC stock really began to climb.
It took three months for my investment to bear fruit before ultimately finding a higher low of what we now know is the $33 range. So I’m still up significantly, 5-figures. But I still hold.
What I did during the time my investment was negative is I took advantage of the share price instead. I loaded up on shares like crazy. So, if you’re looking to increase your number of shares now is the time to do it.
The Data Hasn’t Changed
Why do I continue to hold? I could take my profits, forget this battle and invest in other long term plays. The reason is because the data has not changed.
This is how I know you will come profitable soon, except you probably won’t have to go through two dips like us seasoned apes did. This could perhaps be the last big dip before MOASS.
I mean who knows, maybe we do find a higher low down the road. But even then, you’ll find yourself in a similar position to us who have been holding since early this year. You’ll be profitable, but you’ll understand there’s a lot of potential.
AMC Short Interest %
Now, back to the data. Short interest by definition is considered to be extremely high at 20%. AMC’s short interest is currently at 18%. A high short interest is considered to be around 10%. This data tells you that AMC is a rare case. Apple’s short interest is 1%, just for comparison.
Utilization is in the high 90% and the shares on loan are above 100 million according to Ortex data.
But wait, there’s more. More than 60% of trading has occurred inside dark pools. This means that a lot of the buying pressure is not even reflected in AMC’s current share price! Dark pool usage has been increasing which means short sellers are running out of options. And it’s only a matter of time before they’re suspended from using these ATS’s (alternative trading systems).
How? Whether you believe the SEC will do something or not, change takes time. We didn’t have the attention of mainstream media nor of the SEC earlier this year, but we do now.
The point here is they now know, that we know. The spotlight is on them. Will they expose themselves as slaves of corruption? Or will they demonstrate to the world that they serve the people?
Will AMC Stock Go Back Up?
Absolutely. AMC has found a new bottom in the $33 range. The last bottom was between $5-$9 and it consolidated at that price range for a few months before making a massive break.
AMC recently tested $37 again and touched $38. Once we break these levels and move to $40, the stock will see $45+ again. We know this through the Fibonacci retracement that presents technical analysts with the levels of resistance the stock went through.
This technical setup allows us to trace patterns whether AMC is trending downwards or upwards.
Well now we’ve tested $50+. Ladies and gentlemen, AMC wants to go up despite the shorting. AMC’s only intention is to go up.
AMC Movement Facts
- Apes own more than 80% of the float
- Retail investors continue to buy the dips
- Large institutions keep bulking up on the stock
- Shorts have not covered their positions
- Hedge funds are under intense scrutiny
- Short sellers continue to face difficult losses
- We’ve grabbed the attention of mainstream media
- Naked shorting and dark pools have been exposed
- The community is growing every day
- We’ve saved an entire movie industry
Give yourselves a round of applause. These facts are all going in the history books. No one can take away the ruckus the community has made.
Change is inevitable, the apes are inevitable, the biggest transfer of wealth in all human history is inevitable. This was meant to be and you were meant to be a part of it.
If you’re currently holding losses in AMC, welcome to possibly one of the biggest moments of your life. More than 4 million apes stand beside you.
The data says short sellers are overleveraged, whales continue to buy the stock, brokers are raising margin requirements, the SEC is getting involved. It is happening.
Apes, keep holding; we’re being processed.
What’s Up With Margin Calls?
Why do you think historical amounts of cash are currently being pumped into our financial system? My guess is feds are getting ready to bail short sellers. They’re preparing for something massive.
We know that short sellers have been trading billions of synthetics and we also know that they have to cover those positions too. Hedge funds have been liquidating several positions in the markets and I can only assume they will need help from the government too.
These margin calls will be the biggest margin calls in history.
Final verdict
If you’re holding losses at the moment, do not worry. If you’re like me and you trust the data, you know that these losses are only temporary.
Amazing things are on their way to you, I know you can feel it too.

As always another great, and easy to understand article. My 126 shares will do me well. May even grab another 21!! Thank you for these articles.
Hi Frank, the title of your email article is “I am selling my AMC stock”, but the article looks like you’re still holding. Was that an error in the title? If so, please resend a new email stating “I am NOT selling my AMC stock”.
It’s actually a puzzle brother. On Twitter I said my minimum requirement to sell is ALL APES must be profitable FIRST. On the email I reworded it as “I am selling my AMC stock”.. then the body said “When every ape is profitable FIRST”.
Got it, thank you.

“AMC President and CEO Adam Aron said, “The number of investors who want to own a part of AMC continues to increase and now stands at approximately 4.1 million. More than 80% of AMC shares are held by a broad base of retail investors”

Great article as usual, getting right at the heart of what many apes feel, either bored by the HF’s war by attrition (which by now they know they won’t win) or feeling like the amount of time that has passed means that they have more time, money, and power to figure this out while we twist in the wind (BS IMO). Quick question:
1. The 4 million Apes, where did you get that number?
2. Do you think dark pools will eventually get banned in the US?
Thanks Again! Hail Caesar!
Thanks for your comment Christopher. AMC Entertainment came out with this news about approximately 4 million retail investors owning 80% of the float. I think it’s possible dark pools will eventually be banned. Our movement is so big that I really think we can make real change happen for future investors. If this happens, we’d have made a greater impact in history.
