Is AMC’s Comeback Just the Beginning?

AMC makes a strong comeback
Market News: AMC makes a strong comeback

AMC Entertainment closed at $24.81 on Tuesday after trading volume surpassed its average volume of 46 million by 25.5 million.

The movie theatre chain peaked around $26 per share before retesting the $24 and $25 levels intraday.

Shareholders are anticipating even larger price action after AMC’s dividend is distributed.

Is this just the beginning for AMC Entertainment?

Is a much more aggressive share price on the way?

Let’s discuss it.

Apes get amped for APE

APE stock is on its way.

Every AMC shareholder is going to receive an equivalent amount of ‘AMC Preferred Equity’, aka APE, for every AMC share they hold.

The initiative is part of the company’s strategy which will allow them to raise capital and pay off some debt.

The value of AMC’s share price will be split in half with APE, but shareholders are determined strong buying pressure will send both stocks to the moon.

Investors will have until Friday the 19th to lock the deal and should see the new security in their broker accounts by Monday the 22nd.

The AMC community is certain many people won’t receive the dividend due to the vast amount of naked shorting that has occurred in AMC stock.

Many have contacted their brokers to ensure they will indeed be receiving the dividend on the promised date.

Failure to deliver the dividend would mean big trouble for financial institutions and more than likely a share recall, annihilating short sellers and likely triggering a short squeeze.

While the theory is not far-fetched and actually quite logical, brokers should be able to meet the demand.

Only a few days left until time may tell.

Momentum is building

Last year AMC Entertainment stock hit an all-time high of $72 per share and shareholders are confident the share price will surpass this amount this year.

Today we’re seeing AMC climb back out of the hole it was dragged to when the markets began to drastically pull back.

AMC is showing strong bullish sentiment again which explains why its volume has been exceeding its daily average.

The movie theatre stock will have to break its yearly downtrend above the $27-$28 levels if it’s to go berserk again.

Fortunately, it’s very possible.

But momentum is key.

It was momentum that pushed AMC stock from $2 per share to $20 per share in January of 2021 and it was momentum that also pushed the stock from $14 per share to $72 per share in June of last year.

The stock is currently respecting the mid-$20 levels which shows heavy interest in the movie theatre chain.

Will retail investors be successful in taking AMC to the next level?

I certainly think so.

But it won’t be easy as institutions continue to borrow millions of shares to short the stock.

The suppression is still there which means the momentum will have to be much greater.

Is this the beginning of the end for AMC?

Retail investors rushed to buy AMC stock in January of 2021 to squeeze short sellers and make a lot of money, similar to what occurred with GameStop at the time.

AMC had a high short interest and still does to this date, making it possible to still squeeze short sellers in 2022.

So, say retail investors manage to squeeze shorts and profit from a new all-time high.

Will this be the end for AMC?

I don’t think so.

Not in the way some might think.

See, AMC Entertainment is still a growing company whose improved their fundamentals for almost two years straight.

The century old movie theatre chain has introduced NFT collectibles, shareholder incentives, and movie theatre exclusives and innovations.

Whether AMC goes through another massive price runup, a short squeeze, or MOASS, it’s always going to be that legendary ‘meme stock’ company that kicked Wall Street’s ass.

AMC won’t ever be over, because the community won’t be over.

Investors Bulk Up on AMC Stock Before Dividend

AMC stock
Market News: AMC volume surges as investors wait for APE stock dividend

Investors are bulking up on AMC stock prior to the new stock dividend.

The big volume has caused AMC Entertainment stock to rise 18.86% on Friday and more than 15% on Monday.

A new $APE stock was announced during Thursday’s Q2 earnings call, part of a dividend AMC Entertainment will be distributing to shareholders later this month.

This ‘AMC Preferred Equity’, or APE, will be available to all AMC shareholders by the 19th of August.

Investors should see the new ticker on their broker accounts the following trading day.

But why is this new $APE stock a big deal?

That’s what we’re here to discuss.

AMC’s volume surges

AMC’s trading volume has more than doubled surpassing 100 million both on Friday and Monday.

This strong demand for the stock has also caused the stock to trade significantly higher.

AMC closed at $22.18 on Friday and traded around $25.50 per share majority of Monday’s trading day, even reaching $26 per share.

The stock is up more than +56% on the 5-day trading chart and more than +61% on the monthly.

The high volume in the recent days suggests retail investors are going in the offense to make the most out of this upcoming APE stock dividend.

How many APE will AMC shareholders receive?

AMC shareholders will receive one APE share for every AMC share they hold.

(Ex. 1,000 share of AMC = 1,000 additional shares of APE stock)

Shareholders will be able to trade APE stock based on supply and demand meaning the security will indeed hold value.

The value shareholders will be receiving in the next few weeks is unlike anything else in the market.

APE stock IPO

AMC Ape stock

Although APE stock is merely a dividend from an already publicly traded company (AMC Entertainment), the structure could almost be seen as an IPO due to its introduction to the market.

This means that like an IPO, we could expect APE stock to surge in price during its first few days to weeks in the market.

The sheer volume on its own could create a massive surge similar to what we witnessed with HKD stock, especially if institutions buy in heavily.

Perhaps it’s not the exact magnitude we saw with HKD stock, but something similar with enough buying power and demand for the stock.

Here, shareholders will be able to maximize profits from APE stock and AMC stock, if AMC has not already squeezed short sellers.

There will be money to be made for early adopters.

Will AMC Entertainment Stock Reach a New ATH This Year?

AMC ATH
Does AMC Entertainment stock have the potential to reach a new ATH?

AMC Entertainment stock was the most searched for stock in 2021 due to it reaching an ATH (all-time high) of $72 per share.

Prior to the climb, retail investors were discovering the data that pointed to that surge on this very blog.

And if you got in late and are holding unrealized losses, you might have heard that AMC stock is not done running.

$14 to $72 per share

If you read my article “Are You Holding Significant Losses in AMC Stock?” yesterday, you know I briefly touched topic on this.

AMC was only around $14 per share when it began to run up to its current all-time high of $72 per share.

AMC Entertainment stock is currently trading around $15, a support level we’ve seen for quite some time now.

It’s possible AMC has found a new bottom in the $14-$15 range, up $10 from its floor of $5 in 2021 after the stock ran up to $20 per share in January then $72 in May.

AMC raised new levels of support last year and it’s very possible we get to see this same trend as the markets shift away from the current bearish sentiment.

If the movie theatre chain company has set a higher floor, does this mean AMC will reach a new ATH during its next bull run?

And if so, how high can the stock go?

Let me give you a scenario.

AMC stock prediction 2022/2023

Although the biggest CEOs in America don’t think this bear market will linger, we don’t know exactly how long this bear market will last.

For this reason, I’m including the year 2023 into the equation, though like you, would like to see this happen this year.

We know AMC is not done running primarily due to its high short interest percentage of 19%.

AMC had a SI of 20% when it reached an ATH of $72 per share at the starting run of $5.

How can this history help us identify AMC’s next possible ATH?

We can look at the gap between the previous bottom, and today’s possible bottom of $14-$15.

The difference from $5 to let’s say $15 is 3x the previous price.

Could we then say the price potential of another AMC ATH will be 3x that from the previous all-time high?

That would mean another major price runup could take AMC to an ATH of approximately $216 per share.

Now, keep in mind this only calculating a small percentage of short covering.

When AMC ran from $5 to $14 and then eventually peaked at $72, AMC’s short interest dropped only 6%, from 20% to 14%.

Is it possible AMC’s share price goes even higher?

This will highly depend on how many shorts begin to close out their short positions.

The reason early shareholders didn’t take profits at $72 per share is because of how much more potential AMC had to run – based on how much short interest was still available at the time.

Since then, the short interest has risen from 14% to the current 19% and has even topped 20%.

What does this tell us?

Despite the prices we see in the market today, AMC has yet another all-time high price to unlock.

How will we know when AMC has completely squeezed shorts from their positions?

Let me tell you this – the $200+ price range will only be from a few shorts closing their positions, again based on previous patterns (not financial advice).

We will have to keep an eye out on the short interest percentage as AMC’s share price begins to climb again.

For example: if AMC reaches $500 per share but its short interest is anywhere between 10%-11%, then you know there’s still room for growth.

Holding the stock at this level will depend on an investors level of risk of course.

Take this information with a grain of salt

The examples and hypothesis explained in this article regarding where AMC’s stock price can go are my opinions and thoughts only.

I look at the evidence, history, patterns, and factual data first before creating possible scenarios of where AMC can go during another epic uptrend.

If I hold the stock, it’s because I look at the data.

I don’t take synthetics into account because regulators aren’t holding anyone accountable for them yet.

I feel it’s best to strategize without them – remember, if synthetics are closed that’s just a massive bonus.

Will AMC Entertainment stock reach a new ATH this year?

I think AMC will reach a new ATH when the markets are no longer bearish.

No matter where you think AMC will top off, one thing is certain – it’s going to runup eventually.

Strategize and have a plan to make a lot of money.

‘The Batman’ now playing

‘The Batman’ starring Robert Pattinson

People are calling Robert Pattinson the best Batman so far.

If you watched ‘The Batman’ I’d love to hear your take in the comment section below.

Movie theatres are thriving

People are flooding movie theatres despite the ongoing pandemic

Movie theatres are thriving yet once again despite the ongoing pandemic.

People’s need for a sense of normalcy is being met by high profile movie titles on the big screen, something you cannot replicate with online streaming.

Though online streaming has become quite popular due to the pandemic, more people have proven the desire to get out again.

Restaurants, movie theatres, and shopping centers are all packed today.

More people are beginning to feel things are getting back to normal with mask mandates being lifted in some areas of the country too.

While online streaming is here to stay, so are the movie theatres.

The theatrical experience is hard to follow

‘The Batman’ now playing in AMC theatres

Films like ‘The Batman’ and ‘Spider-Man No Way Home’ make the theatrical experience a hard act to follow.

Especially when comparing it to online streaming at home.

The movie industry is booming again, and the numbers say it all.

‘Spider-Man No Way Home’ is on track to make more than $800 million to-date, currently at $786 million.

‘The Batman’ is anticipated to continue generating millions leading up to next weekend.

While the finance world continues to criticize the survival of the movie theatre industry, it’s safe to say cinemas aren’t leaving.

What’s your take on the movie theatre industry?

Let’s start a discussion below.
