why is amc falling today in this video
i'm going to provide
answers as to why amc stock is falling
take a peek at this if we look at the
chart we'll see that currently at the
time of this recording
amc is recovering it's moving within
mostly within the lines that we've drawn
on our technical analysis here
it is presently down about 27.6
this is about the opposite of what
workhorse is doing workhorse is up about
22 percent
though workhorse has also had about a 20
movement in the day
given that it was up about 40 workhorses
about
47 short via short interest ratings from
s3 partners
amc sitting at about 18.09 percent short
according to s3 partners data
so uh now keep that in mind those are
estimates
from them does not necessarily mean it's
100 accurate
and there are questions in terms of how
synthetic shares are counted anyway
but keep that in mind that's sort of
what i've been using as a measure of
short interest
and i noticed that workhorse is insanely
high but aside from that
let's go ahead and understand why is it
that amc is falling why is amc down at
the moment now 28
what's happening what has changed well
folks it has to do
with shares being sold take a peek here
back in
april uh on april 27th there was an
indication that amc
might very important that we notice this
here and says in fact actually their
verbiage here is
we may through our sales agents
offer and sell from time to time up
to 43 million shares
and this is a prospectus agreement
between goldman sachs riley securities
and
citigroup global markets now this
becomes important
why or what does this actually mean here
in april well what this means in april
is
hey world just a heads up we're in talks
to sell shares of amc
and at some point in the future we might
decide to actually pull the trigger and
sell those shares
well folks let's take a look at what
happened today
today we had an ak released by
see look form 8k released today
june 3rd by amc and in this
8k see here's amc in this 8k we will
find
that amc has stated on june 3rd
2021 that's today that's really
important because there are a lot of
folks going
wait a minute that sale happened in
april that's fud
no it's not this is today
today amc is saying we have entered into
an equity distribution agreement with
again
riley securities and city group global
markets as sales agents to sell up to
11.55 million shares
of class a stock at
and this would be an at the market
offering now obviously at the market has
fluctuated a little bit between well now
forty six dollars and about sixty three
dollars
which was the prior closing price but in
other words
uh amc has has the right to to sell
11.55 million shares now this does two
things one it could put
downward pressure on the actual markets
if in the event let's say
amc sold these shares directly to
riley's securities
and then riley securities turned around
and sold them onto the market
it's entirely possible that they could
do that there is a note
in their prospectus that these shares
are going to take two business days to
settle but we don't really care about
them settling
you could sell before something settles
it's kind of like when when we
trade let's say if you buy 100 shares of
amc today
that's not going to settle for two days
but you could turn around
and sell it or transact again if you
wanted to
so that's more of like a an underlying
mechanics thing
but anyway we have 11.55
million shares being sold or up to
and if we multiply that out 11.55
million shares at uh let's say the
previous close of about 63
that's about 727 million dollars of
money that's being raised
even if they got the current price at 46
it's about 531 million dollars of
capital
that amc is able to raise and use
now keep in mind as of march 31st they
had about 11 billion dollars
in debt uh that number has changed
because we've started to pay down some
debt
but as of march 31st the debt reading
was about 11 billion dollars in debt
at the company what we can do also is we
could go to the june 3rd prospectus
and get some other insights because it's
not just the share sale
but it's also some of the verbiage
that's in this document and i think
that's very important to look at as well
take a peek here so this is where we
have the prospectus that says we have
entered into an agreement to sell about
11
550 shares but take a look at this folks
all right under no under the
circumstances
and this is where they talk about the
volatility of their stock going from
a low of a dollar 91 cents on january
5th
to an intraday high of 72 dollars on
june 2nd they talk about this volatility
right
after this volatility take a peek at
this under the circumstances
we caution against investing in our
class a
common stock unless you are prepared to
incur the risk
of losing all or a substantial portion
of your investment
folks amc is literally selling shares
and then telling you our stock is
overvalued
that's rough that's a really really
rough statement here
not only that but take a look at that
investing in our class a common stock
is highly speculative and involves risk
folks they're talking down their own
stock here now maybe
this is probably just cya you know cover
your
you know uh and that could be common
because
the last thing you want is people like
suing amc
and creating a bunch of legal headaches
for amc because people like well
well adam aaron implied he was an ape
and and
and therefore you made me buy the the
shares
you know they're being very clear here
that as they say here look at this
the market price of our class a shares
has experienced and may continue to
experience rapid and substantial
increases or decreases
unrelated to our operating performance
or prospects or
macro or industry fundamentals and
substantial increases may be
significantly inconsistent with the
risks
and uncertainties that we continue to
face
it to me it sounds like an attorney you
know just doing the the cya
but still i mean look at this they even
talk about a short squeeze here
a short squeeze due to a sudden increase
in demand for shares of class a common
stock
that largely exceeds supply or focused
investor trading in anticipation of a
potential squeeze
have led to and may currently be leading
to and could again lead to extreme price
volatility
in our shares and uh we
will plan to use this money for
corporate purposes which may include the
repayment of
refinancing of redemption of or
repurchasing of existing debt
acquisition of theater assets working
capital or capital expenditures
so you've got a two-folded attack on amc
here coming from the company
number one 11.5 million shares 11.55
million shares
that's a big dump but folks the
the warnings here in bold on the
prospectus
we caution you against investing in our
stock
unless you're prepared to risk losing
all or a substantial portion of your
investment
notice they didn't say or there's a
chance of you getting a ton of attendees
again i think this is just a lawyer you
know cya but folks
this is their document that's why
we're seeing a 27 sell-off on amc today
that's rough it's kind of rough you know
it's a little bit of a slap in the face
to the ape army i have to say
now uh i've i've mentioned that my
strategy on this has actually been
selling puts
which is which is a bullish move but i
haven't been buying
calls especially when we have a big
run-up like we did yesterday
uh so uh i'm i'm into i'm gonna get
assigned my puts tomorrow presumably
unless the market runs
and so if i get assigned i'll be in at
about 49
dollars right now we're at about 45
dollars so that puts me within about 10
not too shabby if we stabilize around
here we'll see what happens
and uh but yeah that kind of gives you a
little bit of an update as to what's
happening with amc
it is very risky and there are a lot of
they honestly they could continue to
raise shares
you know if if this goes up again
tomorrow 20 30
they might do the same thing again on
monday so just keep this in mind they
are being smart in terms of the business
aspect which is
paying down debt and raising money so
they can operate this is good for the
company in the long run though because
ultimately
we don't want them to be massively
indebted we want them to have cash we
want them to have money and we want them
to be able to
go make smart investments for the long
term there's an update for you if you
