AMC is on Track for Fundamental Growth

AMC is selling APE to pay down its debt — AMC is Selling APE to pay down its debt

The largest movie theatre chain in the world is about to take a leap forward as the company prepares to capitalize from APE.

APE saw gains more than +6% on Monday while AMC was down more than -10%.

Both stocks are seeing some recovery on Tuesday.

On Twitter, shareholders are anticipating a short squeeze, or rally prior to the massive sell.

Afterall, the selloff means APE share prices will fall, but AMC could capitalize on $1.5 billion at current share price levels.

Had the movie theatre chain sold APE during its inception, the company would have enough capital to erase all of its debt.

The company pivoted towards the issuance of APE when shareholders refused to approve the dilution of more AMC shares.

The only solution was to split AMC shares, allowing the company to use its shareholders capital as a cash cow to raise cash without the approval to do so.

And while it’s not 100% confirmed how many shares will be sold, AMC Entertainment does state up to 425 million APE shares may be sold.

Should You Invest in APE?

AMC Entertainment made the following statement:

“Under the circumstances, we caution you against investing in our AMC Preferred Equity Units, unless you are prepared to incur the risk of losing all or a substantial portion of your investment.”

The company warns investors of the significant losses that may occur due to the upcoming selloff.

Conversations have even circulated on Twitter about the possibility of APE getting delisted.

And while the delisting of APE might sound rather extreme, investors should be mindful of how their capital is working for them, if at all.

APE has always been a tool for the company’s fundamental growth rather than an investment tool for retail investors.

Nonetheless, selling APE is going to push AMC forward fundamentally as the movie theatre chain reduces its debt and continues work on increasing its revenue.

I’m curious to know what you think.

APE Topped $304.9 Million in FTDs Last Month

September 23, 2022 / Frank Nez / 17 Comments

Market News: APE failure to deliver surge since inception.

AMC’s Preferred Equity, APE, topped $304.9 million in FTDs last month.

The FTDs are reported for the month of August, per Stocksera.

FTDs, or Failure-to-deliver occurs when one party in a trading contract (whether it’s shares, futures, or options) fails to deliver on their obligations.

These failures derive due to buyers not having enough money to take delivery and pay for the transaction at settlement.

In the case of sellers, it means not having the goods to meet that transaction.

Failure-to-deliver can occur in options trading or when selling short naked, per Investopedia.

AMC Entertainment has been a big target for short sellers looking to profit from the demise of the century old movie theatre chain.

The alarming amount of APE FTDs further proves this.

Let’s discuss it below.

Clearing houses attack APE

According to Investopedia, APE FTDs can also occur if there is a technical problem in the settlement process carried out by the respective parties (clearing houses).

There’s a major conflict of interest when Citadel Clearing LLC transacts orders worldwide.

Ken Griffin’s Citadel LLC is short on AMC Entertainment stock, so we can see how utilities play out in the hedge fund’s favor.

It’s unlikely FTDs have been a result of retail buyers since the majority are purchasing the equity on cash accounts where orders execute almost immediately.

Naked short selling seems to be the most probable cause here as $APE has tumbled despite heavy retail interest.

The large amount of FTDs is manipulative and quite common in stocks such as AMC and GameStop.

Retail investors have taken it to Twitter to express their concerns to SEC Chairman Gary Gensler.

And although activists continue to engage the Chairman, no action has taken place to justify the ongoing market manipulation in APE, AMC, and GameStop.

Others are suggesting protesting outside SEC locations across the country.

Leave your thoughts on APE

There’s a lot of speculation surrounding APE FTDs and APE stock in general.

Are you holding APE?

This is What’s Stopping AMC From Squeezing Today

September 16, 2022 / Frank Nez / 7 Comments

AMC Stock Squeeze — AMC Theatres: Will AMC stock surge again soon?

When AMC and GameStop surged in share price back in January of 2021, retail investors on Reddit weren’t worried about dark pools or market manipulation.

They knew that in numbers they could increase the market capitalization, and in turn, increase the share price and collect big profits.

My favorite part of Reddit was seeing all the incredible gain porn.

If you’ve been part of the ape community since the beginning, you know exactly what I’m talking about.

Seeing investor’s gains on Reddit was both desirable and exciting, I mean who wouldn’t want a piece of the action?

So, did market makers and hedge funds all of a sudden decide to start manipulating the stocks after January?

I don’t think so – here’s what’s stopping AMC from squeezing today.

Dark pools and off exchange trading?

AMC dark pools — AMC Dark Pools | AMC off exchange trading

Not quite.

See, dark pools and off exchange trading have unfortunately been unfair suppression retail investors have no control over.

These loopholes did not magically appear after January’s runups; they’ve always been there.

While majority of retail investor’s orders are not processed through the lit exchange, high volume has always had a positive effect for investors going long.

As a collective, the small percentage that is processed through the lit exchange accumulates to create the momentum necessary to drive prices upward.

And Redditors on r/wallstreetbets knew this.

All they needed to know was that these stocks were heavily shorted in order to create a short squeeze from fueled buying momentum.

AMC gained attention in January when it surged from $2 per share to $22 per share.

But we noticed many short sellers were still hanging around, so we advised to the public of the possibility at hand.

Months later AMC surged to $72 per share and it was all due to the massive crowd of retail investors who purchased the stock.

AMC was having 500,000,000 to 900,000,000 volume days.

Volume = Accountability

Speaking of volume, AMC’s current average volume today is 45.2 million.

On Wednesday, volume traded at only 26 million.

Today’s economic downturn has made it difficult for retail investors across the entire market to fork out money to buy stock.

The lack of liquidity then triggers financial institutions to further sell assets for capital – which in turn drives stocks lower.

Whether we have the means to buy stock or not is one thing, but we must take accountability and understand why, how, and what triggered AMC to surge previously.

Is there market manipulation occurring that leaves retail at a disadvantage?

Absolutely!

Should retail investors raise awareness of market injustices through activism?

Without a doubt.

But should we fail to take accountability due to the setback our economy is facing?

Due to the setback we’re facing?

Respectfully, I don’t think so.

What’s stopping AMC from squeezing today is the lack of volume from retail investors as a unit.

From $2-$22, From $14-$72, From $9 to What?

AMC Stock update — Why isn’t AMC squeezing? Will AMC squeeze? AMC stock update + more.

Retail investors took AMC from $2 to $22 together.

As a unit, we also took the stock price from $14 to $72 per share.

So, what’s next?

Will retail investors decide to take AMC from $9 per share to the next level?

Or will retail give up, fail to take accountability, and blame our regulators who had nothing to do with the success of the first two runs in the first place?

But Frank, I’m tapped out.

I understand that, just know why the stock isn’t performing at the moment.

If you’re here to make money, learn what’s going to make you money.

If you’re here to fight corruption, get loud.

But don’t ever stop taking accountability.

There are many faceless Twitter wanabes who are misleading real people.

Be careful of who you connect or associate with.

Latest AMC stock updates

I’ve been tracking AMC’s momentum on the weekly timeframe on my channel to give you a perspective of what we can expect in the coming weeks.

The stock has finally established its first green candle on the weekly charts.

However, if retail investors are not successful in keeping up the pressure, we can expect AMC to begin down-trending again further prolonging any major price action.

On a personal note: I want to see retail investors outsmart ‘smart money’ again.

I want to see you win.

AMC Entertainment partners with Disney+

AMC Disney Plus — Market News: AMC and Disney Plus partner up.

AMC Entertainment is partnering up with Disney+ to provide Disney+ subscribers with AMC theatre perks.

Some of the perks Disney+ is providing to its customers are:

6 months of Uber One Membership
Disney Movie Insider Bonus Points
Special Screenings at AMC Theatres
Disney Cruise Line Offer
+ more.

CEO Adam Aron said on Monday that “the consumer’s voracious quest for content allows both movie theatres and steamers to thrive. So, I am thrilled that tens of millions of Disney+ subscribers now get perks — exclusively at AMC Theatres!”

This is a massive win for AMC Entertainment as it contradicts what analysts have been expecting of the century old movie theatre chain.

Financial institutions shorting AMC theatre stock prophesized streaming would replace the cinematic experience, but AMC’s partnership with Disney shows us both outlets can coexist.

Which do you prefer?

Online streaming, or the cinematic experience you get at a movie theatre?

Bankruptcy in the Movie Theatre Industry

Earlier the CEO also addressed Regal’s filing for bankruptcy, stating fortunately AMC is in a very, very different position.

AMC Entertainment continues to thrive as shareholders become customers and new retail investors join the ‘meme stock’ saga in fighting corruption and malpractice in the financial markets.

Momentum has even begun to pick up as indicators are signaling big price action could lie ahead for AMC Entertainment stock.

But AMC’s competitors are not on the same boat.

The British movie theater chain Cineworld (Regal), weighed down by a mammoth debt pile, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the United States last Wednesday, having failed to rebound from the pressure inflicted by the pandemic, according to The New York Times.

Cineworld, the world’s second-largest theater chain after AMC Theaters, will seek to significantly reduce its debt through reorganization, the company said in the filing.

The company, which is based in London and operates Regal Cinemas in the United States, reported $8.9 billion in debt at the end of 2021, including $4 billion in lease liabilities.

Some of the debt was taken on in the pandemic as the company sought to outlast lockdowns that had sapped its revenue.

Cineworld said Wednesday in its filing that it had secured $1.94 billion in debtor-in-possession financing that would allow it to keep up its operations while it restructures its obligations.

Cineworld/Regal just filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection for its theatres in the U.S.and U.K. Fortunately, AMC is in a very, very different situation — because retail investors embraced us and let us raise boatloads of cash. Thank you to retail! You really did save AMC.

AMC is About to Squeeze According to this Indicator

September 10, 2022 / Frank Nez / 9 Comments

AMC News Today - AMC Squeeze — Market News: AMC News today.

AMC is about to squeeze; I mean we’ve heard it all year.

Catalysts have proven to provide false hopes time and time again.

However, there’s one piece of the puzzle you cannot deny, and it’s happening right now.

If you’ve been following my latest blog articles and videos on the channel, you know I’m referring to a special indicator I personally use.

The TTM Squeeze indicator – it signals a major shift in momentum whether it’s bearish or bullish.

The signal just transitioned from bearish momentum to the beginning cycle of what could be massive bullish price action for AMC Entertainment.

I’ve been watching the weekly timeframe on AMC to identify its macro trajectory.

And it’s looking very good.

Let’s break it down together.

TTM Squeeze transition officially confirmed

AMC TTM squeeze transition — AMC TTM Squeeze transition confirmed – Franknez.com.

AMC has officially transitioned from bearish momentum to bullish momentum on the TTM Squeeze indicator.

The chart shown above shows three green momentum candles gradually growing, signaling big price action lies ahead.

Last week I went over AMC’s history correlating its price action with the indicator on my YouTube channel.

And we can see just how accurate this data is.

If you missed that video, you may watch it below.

Frank Nez is on YouTube – Subscribe for more content and updates.

In the beginning of the year of 2021, AMC’s price action took off as retail investors began to buy the stock in bulk.

That momentum is captured on the TTM Squeeze indicator.

The indicator’s momentum candles kept growing signaling AMC’s price action was not done running yet.

Eventually the momentum signal began to give ‘sell’ warnings after reaching its all-time high, indicating momentum was beginning to dissipate.

This is where we slowly see the TTM squeeze indicator transition from bullish momentum to bearish momentum (red) candles, and AMC’s price action gradually plummet.

After more than a year of downtrend, selling momentum is no longer what it was, and we can see it on the charts.

In order for AMC to have a clean rebound, these momentum candles will have to gradually get larger and larger.

If retail investors are unable to sustain this growth, then it’s very possible sellers will begin to take over again.

But because we are seeing these candles grow every week, it’s a great indication the stock is on track for big growth over the long haul.

Is AMC a buy?

According to AMC’s TTM Squeeze indicator, it’s a screaming buy.

The signal is showing AMC is on trajectory for larger price action on the weekly timeframe.

AMC has had a strong level of support in the high $8 to low $9 levels with many anticipating the stock has already hit its bottom.

But I’m curious to know what you think, leave a comment down below.

AMC Stock: Are 1,000% Gains on The Horizon?

September 7, 2022 / Frank Nez / 5 Comments

Will AMC Go up - Will AMC squeeze? — Market News: AMC’s TTM Squeeze indicator is ready to transition.

AMC stock yielded more than +3,000% gains last year when the stock surged to $72 per share.

Is a new all-time high on the horizon?

AMC Entertainment stock has been trading lower since the stock split occurred, but both AMC and APE shares continue to slide.

In a recent YouTube video on my channel, I touched topic on an indicator I use when day trading called the TTM Squeeze indicator.

It tracks and signals strong upcoming momentum on both the up and downside, and I’ve been keeping a close eye out on AMC’s weekly timeframe.

This same indicator confirms the rally up to $72 per share last year as well as the entire downtrend we’ve seen since.

Here’s what it’s showing may come next.

AMC TTM Squeeze indicator

I gave a quick 6-minute introduction to AMC’s TTM squeeze indicator on my channel last week; you may watch it below in case you missed it.

Subscribe for more updates like this one.

But I’m going to be publishing a brand-new video updating the community where AMC stands and what we can expect moving forward based on this indicator, later this week.

Be sure to subscribe to the channel and opt in for notification so you do not miss it when it comes out.

In this article I want to go over the possible BIG rally that may lie ahead for AMC Entertainment stock given the circumstances of specific factors.

One of the biggest being momentum.

AMC saw gains upwards of +3,000% last year when retail investors purchased the stock en masse, which snowballed into FOMO from more retail investors and even institutions.

The reason it worked was because AMC had a high short interest and institutions gained confidence in the opportunity as investors piled in to squeeze short sellers from their short positions.

AMC’s short interest dropped from 23% to 20% before it began to move up.

The stock gained momentum when the short interest further dropped to 14% before picking back up this year.

And luckily for retail investors, AMC’s current reported short interest is at 21.30%.

What’s it going to take for AMC to surge again?

It’s going to require retail momentum and institutional investor confidence for AMC to surge like it did last year.

This bullish momentum is what triggered a small percentage of short sellers to close their short positions, further fueling the rally.

If AMC’s TTM Squeeze indicator has a complete transition from bearish momentum to bullish momentum, then AMC stock will be taking its first steps towards another massive swing this year.

I will be going over the indicator later this week on my channel for the weekly timeframe update.

The Cost for Hedge Funds to Short AMC Rises

September 5, 2022 / Frank Nez / 4 Comments

Hedge Funds short AMC — Market News: The cost to short AMC stock increases

The cost for hedge funds to short AMC is rising.

Short sellers have been prophesizing the fall of the movie theatre industry after the pandemic temporarily crippled the largest movie theatre chain in the world, AMC Entertainment.

Overleveraged institutions, who many have discovered to be involved in major conflicts of interest, have been able to manipulate the company’s shares from rising through a variety of tools only accessible to financial institutions.

The demand for the movie theatre chain stock has been masked in dark pools, or other foreign exchanges; only a fraction of retail’s money has been observed on the lit exchange (NYSE).

Nonetheless, retail investors have become a massive support for the stock and the company.

So much that even as short sellers drag out getting squeezed from their positions, the cost for hedge funds to short AMC has risen.

Let’s go over the numbers.

AMC’s CTB and short borrow interest fee increase

AMC’s cost to borrow (CTB) has steadily increased over the past weeks.

According to the reported short interest data provided by Ortex, AMC’s CTB is now at 17.78%.

Ortex’s cost to borrow represents the annualized % of interest on loans from brokers to their clients, i.e., hedge funds.

There are currently 196.09m AMC shares out on loan.

196m shares on loan X 17.78% (CTB) = $34.8 million in interest.

It’s costing short sellers $34.8 million per year to short AMC Entertainment.

This is the fee hedge funds are currently paying to bet against retail investors long on AMC stock.

And this is only including the shares out on loan that are recorded or reported for the public.

The total amount could be less or more.

Stonk-O-Tracker has recorded the interest rate of shares to borrow to be as high as 28.30%.

This number of course fluctuates, but interest rates struggled to move past 1% at the beginning of the year.

The rise in fees plays in retail’s favor.

Related: AMC Nears High Demand Levels: What to Watch For

Will high interest fees force hedge funds to close?

High short borrow fees may play a significant role in the closing of short positions for AMC Entertainment stock.

The cost for hedge funds to short AMC will only continue to rise as the demand to borrow these shares is there.

At this point, it seems financial institutions will need to decide when they’ve had enough.

Combine big price action with increased borrow fees and you strengthen the probability of short sellers closing their positions.

AMC Nears High Demand Levels: What to Watch For

September 1, 2022 / Frank Nez

AMC Bullish — Market News: AMC TA indicates bullish momentum is near

AMC Entertainment stock is nearing a major demand level as share prices continue to decline.

The stock closed at $8.58 on Thursday after hitting a low of $8.30 on the intraday chart.

Volume on Thursday fell below the average of 46.3 million by 20.9 million.

But AMC is treading a fine line as the high $8 and low $9 levels have proven in the past to be a strong support for the stock.

Breaking below $8 could send the price to test a high demand level around $6.50 per share.

In this article I’m going to explain what shareholders should look out for in the next coming weeks.

Let’s get started!

Momentum levels are on the brink of reversing

If you’ve watched one of the latest videos on my channel regarding the TTM Squeeze indicator, then you know all about the massive impact this indicator is signaling.

Watch this quick clip on YouTube – Subscribe for more content and updates.

The TTM squeeze indicator is an indicator that signals heavy buying or selling momentum.

When AMC began to run up before ultimately hitting its all-time high of $72 per share, we see this indicator was already predicting heavy bullish momentum.

TTM Squeeze indicator - AMC Stock — TTM Squeeze indicator – AMC stock

The TTM Squeeze indicator is the chart at the very bottom whereas the top is AMC’s price action.

Dark green shrinking candles indicate the stock is on the brink of losing momentum and often times serves as a sell indicator.

We see that as the dark green momentum candles shrunk, AMC’s price action is followed by a massive crash.

Now let’s take a look at what happened when the TTM Squeeze indicator switched from bullish momentum to bearish momentum.

As the indicator transitioned from bullish momentum and began to show signs of bearish momentum, we can see AMC had a drastic drop in share price.

The TTM Squeeze indicator predicts big moves ahead.

A new transition is in play

So where is AMC today?

AMC is actually in a period where bearish momentum has begun to die out, leaving room for buyers to takeover.

It makes sense as AMC’s share price is hovering just above key levels of support, which have also been known as high demand levels.

Below you’ll see the TTM Squeeze indicator shows bearish momentum has completely gone out on the weekly timeframe.

The transition from red to green momentum candles will signify big moves lie ahead for AMC Entertainment stock.

But we’ll need one or two of these weekly timeframe momentum candles to serve as confirmations.

If these candles break through, then it’s a clear indication AMC is on track for some massive price action.

Related: How to Invest in the Stock Market for Beginners

What’s on the other side of the coin?

If AMC fails to establish this momentum through buying pressure, short sellers will be able to take over once again.

AMC’s share price would further plunge, and that would be an article for another time.

But for now, the transition towards bullish momentum seems much more likely.

Big Volume in AMC Shows Investors Aren’t Leaving

August 25, 2022 / Frank Nez

AMC Entertainment Stock FrankNez — Market News: High volume in AMC Entertainment stock shows retail isn’t leaving

AMC Entertainment stock might have dropped in share price, but the volume shows investors aren’t leaving.

In fact, there’s been a lot of FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt) occurring where retail investors are either being advised to sell AMC’s Preferred Equity (APE) by brokers or being advised to sell AMC stock altogether by mainstream media.

While both might be quite alarming, investors seem to be holding down the fort for the movie theatre chain.

And if you’re puzzled by what may lie ahead for AMC then this article will provide you with some clarity.

Let’s get started!

The theatre chain has gained a loyal following

AMC Entertainment’s volume remains healthy despite the uncertainty in both the market and company during these misinformed times.

The movie theatre chain has received little to no accolades for not only surviving the challenge of the pandemic lockdowns, but for an incredible and speedy recovery during the retail movement.

The company has managed to pay off a ton of debt, acquire several new successful locations across the country, and beat earnings every quarter since 2021.

AMC Entertainment also purchased a huge stake in gold and silver mining company Hycroft, instantly raising $295 million in just two weeks.

Yet CEO and Chairman Adam Aron is ridiculed for doing what no one else in history has done, communicating with shareholders to save a century old company from the grips of Wall Street market manipulators.

But the truth is Adam Aron is a sharp businessman and has an incredible skill for raising capital out of thin air.

He recently proposed AMC’s Preferred Equity, or $APE.

APE allows the company to have access to a fraction of shareholder’s capital in AMC stock by dividing the stock’s value into two separate securities.

While AMC Entertainment might not be able to dilute more AMC shares unless approved by shareholders, the company has access to do so with APE, raising a large sum of capital at any given moment.

It’s a genius move on behalf of the company and investors are happy to contribute to any possible catalyst that may potentially squeeze short sellers.

Retail investors continue to buy AMC stock

On Wednesday the movie theatre chain closed with its average of 49 million in volume.

The previous trading days consisted of trading at the average volume or twice its average volume, reaching more than 100 million.

AMC’s high volume shows that despite falling share prices, there’s high demand for the movie theatre stock.

On social media, ‘apes’ continue to raise awareness of market injustices and lack of proper institutional regulation.

SEC Chairman Gary Gensler said on Twitter, “regulators are looking to bring greater transparency into short selling”, a practice that market makers and hedge funds have overleveraged to suppress stocks such as AMC, GameStop, and many more from reflecting their true demand in the market.

Actions speak louder than words ✍️ https://t.co/SqzOmosIgF
— Frank Nez 🇺🇸 (@FNez_Blogger) August 24, 2022

Gary Gensler said in February during a Bloomberg exclusive that 90%-95% of retail’s orders are not processed through the lit exchange such as the NYSE.

But retail investors are making a ruckus, exposing conflicts of interest in the finance sector and demanding change.

For decades now the voice of reason has fallen on deaf ears, even Forbes is calling out for Gensler’s resignation.

Investors relay that only another lobbied Chairman will replace him – signifying it makes no difference.

Today, shareholders are looking to create a squeeze in both AMC and APE.

And with enough momentum, it’s impossible to not recreate what occurred in June of 2021.
