@Hey_ross @AceWindman I'll be a bit of a douche and answer like Socrates, with questions. Was sub $500m btc investment material enough to be reported? Was btc investment keeping with the company investment policy? Was there a cash flow indicating any non-marketable securities investment?

"Nonmarketable securities" (e.g. private equity, private funds, or other illiquid investments) started showing up in GameStop's annual reports during the 2023–2025 period I’m speculating that GME might be holding parts of both BBBYQ and SpaceX pre - IPO $GME $BBBY $BBBYQ $SPCX DK -🦋 sec.gov/Archives/edgar…

@ahfzxi @AceWindman No, $BTC represented a new asset class, hence the disclosure as an update to the investment policy. equities were always covered.

@ahfzxi @AceWindman Why would it be material? It was a sub $500m balance sheet investment in keeping with the company investment policy. Not an acquisition that was material operationally, and they reported the mark to market loss. So, what did they not report, exactly, that would be material?

@AceWindman If material (which most likely it would be), they would have to report such stake. Not reporting it is a security fraud. 1/2

@epiphanyremy An old man, after a lifetime of slavery and abuse, dies and goes to heaven. When he meets God, he tells him a joke about slavery. God doesn't laugh. The old man says, "Well, I guess you had to be there"

This is a sign that you should pay attention to. All of these places have the following in common: 1. It's where money goes to relax 2. Ownership is historically expensive, these are all rented by the week to the upper and middle class for vacations, weddings, family reunions, etc. 3. These places have habitual visitors - people who come the same week every year, consistently. That this many properties are on the market means the rental income for the summer has collapsed and these are moving from asset to liability for a lot of owners. The time to buy is coming, but I'm looking for 40-50% price capitulation in some of these markets from the ATH during covid.

@epiphanyremy I’ve said for a while that the Obama White House correspondents dinner where Trump got teased was the programming and firing of a viral bioweapon that would destroy the GOP from the inside. 69D chess from Barack!

It’s crazy that the treasury got rid of the $50 bill but I can use an Umbreon V Pokémon card from Sword&Shield release as currency for the same stuff.

Call me crazy, but maybe two men who fathered 19 children with 7 different women shouldn’t be lecturing us about family values. Yuck

One thing I thing people significantly overlooked in this play is how difficult it is for a public company with an actively traded stock that’s under the DTCC and, as a result, SEC and Finra coverage to be able to move to a tokenized exchange in a way that’s beneficial for shareholders and protect the companies registry. It is however, much easier to restructure the equity and debt offerings as well as the structure of a company when it’s in bankruptcy. It’s also much easier to make changes to accompany and re-organize if it’s going through an M&A transaction and it’s got its state registrations right.

@hookedonhopium Still have time but markets closed. GameStop is usually at market close, not extended trading close, for filings.

Well, it's a part of a signal algorithm, so 'switching it back on' presumes a binary weighting, which isn't likely. One compromised post wouldn't turn it off as a source, only introduce doubt into the Bayesian probabilities on intent and meaning. Turning it back on would rely on a return of signal validation (that the account is not hacked, consistent content, etc). Twitter, however, is not the best place to talk about weight inputs in a machine learning model that is highly selective.

@Hey_ross @SwamiKnows_ How long does it take the to switch that part of the algo off - pretty sure it would be seconds - how long to switch it back on? Think that is one dopey take for somebody that fancies themselves as being a “techy”
