@UCopy417@TeddyRJ741@grok do stocks always have to go back and fill a gap in order to move substantially higher? If no, what is the percentage that the gap fill has happened on stocks with great success.
Imagine if the world studied why people held @GameStop as closely as it studied why they bought it.
You might recognize someone.
A parent checking their account after the kids fall asleep. Someone doing retirement math that never seems to work. A person who has spent years being responsible and still feels one emergency away from starting over.
For some shareholders, @GameStop carries a hope much bigger than its ticker:
That they might finally own a meaningful piece of something that succeeds.
That hope deserves respect. It deserves scrutiny, too. Belief cannot do management’s job.
To @GameStop’s leadership: people have given you something no balance sheet can fully capture their attention, their patience, and years of their lives.
Build something worthy of it.
To everyone watching: demand evidence. Question the thesis. Look at the business with fresh eyes.
Remember that being wrong about an investment would never make these people wrong for wanting a better life.
The ending I want is simple.
Someone closes their brokerage app, walks into the kitchen, looks at the person who stood beside them through all of it, and says:
“We can finally breathe.”
That is what I’m rooting for.

Ryan Cohen's letter to BBBY 👇
The $1.2bn in debt at the time was entirely the notes that were issued in 2014
Every dollar of those notes was created for the sole purpose of buybacks
Gustavo and Tritton continued accelerating the share repurchases despite the company burning cash
JPMorgan worked extensively with Gustavo on the buybacks
JPMorgan were the underwriters of the notes
JPMorgan were used by Ryan Cohen to sell his position, and they leaked the news to everyone before the sale hit the market publicly
JPMorgan's head of Global M&A was concerned about Ryan Cohen and asked the BBBY board what their plan was to deal with him
JPMorgan and MSC have colluded for fraud historically
JPMorgan were removed as senior lenders by Sixth Street in early 2023 after a tug of war for control over the estate
The lookback period for fraudulent conveyance in Chapter 11 is around 90 days, 90 days before Chapter 11 filing on April 23rd 2023 is Monday 23 January 2023, right at the time Sixth Street raised capital to pay JPMorgan to stop them forcing the company into Chapter 7
The HBC deal was facilitated to clear ABL obligations
All the pieces indicate that JPMorgan fucked up, bad and dug themselves deeper.
JPMorgan have paid billions in settlements since 2014.
They will pay the waterfall for their reprehensible actions.
America’s corporate governance system is broken, and it’s killing public companies. Look no further than Cracker Barrel: Decades of brutal mismanagement have seen one incompetent CEO after another walk away with a massive paycheck while customers and actual shareholders take a beating.
Why does this keep happening? Because proxy advisory firms like ISS are corrupt. They blindly rubber-stamp failing boards year after year, protecting the corporate elite while burning shareholder value to the ground.
The root of the rot is index funds. There's no question that indexing one's money is a smart financial move for most people. But just because you passively index your investments doesn't mean your corporate votes should be handed over to the managers of your fund so they can play politics. Right now, passive funds hold massive, unchecked voting blocks while having zero skin in the game themselves.
It is time for a simple rewrite of the rules: We need to index the votes of index fund investors.
Passive index funds should be forced to automatically split their votes to proportionately mirror those of retail and active institutional shareholders — the people actually doing the research, risking their capital, and fighting for performance in the companies they hold shares in. No more rubber-stamping. A change like this will immediately strip corrupt gatekeepers like ISS of their toxic influence.
True accountability happens when lazy, overpaid boards actually answer to the stakeholders they represent, rather than screwing them over.
Actual, logic-driven governance when your money is passive happens when your vote passively follows the voting decisions of the actual market.
We need to stop letting passive capital protect active incompetence. By stripping index funds of their arbitrary voting power and empowering engaged investors, we will finally torch corporate cronyism and usher American capital markets into a golden age of capitalism.
