The Truth about the AMC Short Squeeze
FULL TRANSCRIPT
no in this video we are going to talk
about the amc
squeeze and is the squeeze squoze i'm
going to give a full details on this but
i'm going to start
by talking about a gme because it is
very important that you
look at previous companies and trades
especially momentum related trades
to get an understanding of how short
squeezes can work
so first we are all extremely extremely
familiar
with the gamestop short squeeze in fact
we may have met during the
gamestop short squeeze if we did leave a
comment down below but folks
take a look at this we went from a
massive short interest of around 150
to a massive squeeze on gme on my
birthday january 28th
we covered this live all day long until
the suits stopped us from being able to
buy preventing further gamma squeezing
of the stock
this could have gone to a thousand
dollars but it didn't
because the suits stopped it from
happening which is very frustrating but
what i want you to understand
is the pattern look at this in fact i'm
going to go out to the year chart here
i'm going to hide myself for a moment
take a look at the pattern high high
short interest data
now take this with a grain of salt okay
this is s3 partners
that is the black app we understand that
these are just
estimates okay so take this with a grain
of salt but we do believe that gamestop
was over 137 percent short
that is generally accepted going into
january on january 28th we had this
massive
squeeze that was round one of the
squeeze
we sort of bled short interest for a few
weeks after
leading into the last week of february
and then guess what we had
we had an inflection point look at that
right here around feb 23
24 25 we had an inflection point and we
had a
second squeeze this is very important i
want you to think of this
like literally people going shopping for
lemons when life gives you lemons you
put them in your shopping cart and you
wait for the squeeze
you put them in shopping cart and
picture it kind of like a bunch of
people reaching down the shopping cart
and go
game stop squeeze okay got some juice
out of that one it doesn't mean it's dry
in fact sometimes lemons get even more
juicy over time
as the suits reload their shorts and you
can pick it up again and you go ah
you've reloaded thank you very much
squeeze again okay
squeezes there's not one squeeze squeeze
is not a
singular and this is very important
because we always want to be very clear
when we're talking
and when we're listening and
understanding what we believe is
happening in the market
we should be very clear with what we're
what we're saying
and and we should then reiterate what we
believe we heard
to confirm that what we heard is correct
and so when there are rumors going
around suggesting kevin start to squeeze
the squaws
it's very important do you realize that
is not what i said regarding amc
and again we're going to continue this
discussion by using gme as an example
so look at the look at the chart here
look at the chart
first big squeeze january 28th massive
inflection point in the short interest
data to the downside
what did i say march 20 march like
literally february 23rd
24th 25th you just saw it on the chart
look at the look at the pricing move up
this is your second squeeze
i kid you not this is how this works it
is like a lemon that you squeeze
over and over and over again period of
consolidation
lemon gets juicy again what happens
another squeeze i kid you not there is
no singular squeeze
why do we know this looks pretty flat
over looks pretty flat over here in this
corner right it looks pretty flat right
go to the last 60 days look at the chart
boom see that decline
inflection point squeeze these
are individual squeezes of the lemon
that does not mean the lemon is dry
that does not mean the game is over that
does not mean the lemon can't get
juicy and refilled again so we need to
talk about
amc now that we understand this this
right here
on this chart is an example
of a squeeze it is not necessarily
the only squeeze i don't believe that
there is a the
squeeze this is just an example
of a squeeze and so when we see
short interest data go from 23 or 24
down to where we sit now around we
actually sat all the way down 11
at one point and uh this has been then
revised up
then we know well wait a minute maybe
maybe that means we have
uh we have more squeezes in the pipeline
in fact let's look at some of the recent
data
but first i want you to see this take a
look at uh
amc right here amc also had a run
around january 28th right here look at
this
january 25 right around the peak here
to peak and then we fall and squeeze by
the 28th and down into early february
it's the same thing it's the same
pattern
you can have multiple squeezes in fact
go out here
let's go to we'll stick on the day chart
but let's go to
amc go to the beginning of the year
all right it's certainly not as
prominent as what we've seen here
but when we zoom in over here and you
kind of forget for a moment that we're
at 60 bucks
uh for amc right now if you're in in the
low 50 we're at 54
right now but you know what i mean take
a look at this going from
three dollars four dollars to dollars
and 36 cents
at the same time we have an inflection
point
down in short interest data is a form of
a squeeze but then amc got juicy again
the lemon filled up and we got another
squeeze now that does not mean that
we're done
if anything that means we have the
potential
of suits reloading their their lemons
again because they do that they're suits
okay
they like here's the thing you gotta
think human psychology okay
people don't wanna be wrong nobody wants
to be wrong i
don't give a crap about being wrong i
admit i'm wrong all the freaking time it
doesn't matter
it doesn't freaking matter to me because
when i admit i'm wrong
i learn and i adapt unlike
uh unlike here let's go here let's look
at this financial times
uh here it is actually i have it saved
right here boom unlike these folks
boom right here hedge fund that bet
against gamestop shuts down
that's right they failed to admit they
were wrong they
failed to adjust and now they're closing
their doors because they suck
and if you want to get in touch they
have a website
that'll let you uh scroll down over here
and you can reach out to them to let
them know how you feel
see look you want info on being investor
you want a career
probably don't want a career especially
since they're closing down
but the point is this is their website
uh white square capital
anyway leave them alone uh so the point
is
suits don't like being wrong uh they
they would rather close down their fund
and re-brand and come back as a new
villain in the future because you know
that's all they're going to do
the suits have the potential to continue
to reload
their shorts and guess folks what is
happening
look at the share utilization here we're
seeing
more shares being utilized we are seeing
the short
interest start ticking up look at this
last week we were sitting around 11
previous reading here was 13.17
now it's 13.99 so short interest is
going
up again we are seeing utilization go
up again we are seeing a similar thing i
believe here on the black app estimate
let me go into the last 60 days here and
hide myself
so it's slight but you do see that
slight increase here
in short interest 1334 based on black
cap
it's very it's a very good idea to use
multiple sources of data
or texts s3 partners use other sources
of data as well
especially if they do daily estimates
okay this is one thing that drives me
nuts
is sometimes people go like oh you know
my friend went in the bloomberg terminal
and they saw the short interest
was x and i'm like dude you can't look
at stuff that's two weeks old
you gotta use the day-to-day estimates
okay
so knowing what date a short interest
reading is from very very important
you start googling short interest and
you get old readings it could totally
skew your
your investment thesis for company now
when there are rumors suggesting oh my
gosh that's great that's gross
i hope you now understand that i'm not
saying the squeeze is close
i'm saying lemons get squeezed multiple
times
going from 24 to 11 is a form of a
squeeze
when at the same time the price goes
from 15
to over 70. okay that is a form of a
squeeze
that does not mean there's not going to
be another one and right now it looks to
me like
the suits are gearing up for some more
shorting which is creating this downward
pressure right now on amc i think that's
why the share price is also down two and
a half percent
and i think they're just reloading now i
will say
there is a slight additional problem
that we have
and that is called a reduction of volume
we
need volume in a momentum stock to guess
what
have momentum right now we have a
reduction in volume
this is not necessarily bad as
long as it leads to some kind of
potential breakout catalyst
which can happen you could very easily
get an uptick in short interest data
even more than what we're seeing now
leading to a new and renewed interest in
in people investing in amc
you see volume double or triple boom
this thing skyrockets right back to 70
or 80 dollars
i watch amc by the minute because it's
very important that i keep an eye on my
charts and my trades
now this right here when you have volume
declining can sometimes be a symptom of
a consolidation trend
we're not really seeing pricing break
below our 51
support level which is good this is a
very strong support level
i teach my support levels my trading
style in my stocks in psychology of
money program we talk about this kind of
stuff in my stocks in psychology money
programs
we talk about the lemon lemons getting
squeezed in my private livestreams
we talk about how there are multiple
squeezes
our world is not singular we are in
a plurality or as some like to say
a simulation okay so it's very very
important to know that there's much much
more
nuance that comes to investing you want
to see how nuanced investing can get
here's just a very very simple example
and it's very important lesson for you
to listen in on okay
so i made this video about how crypto
mining can be very very good for using
energy that wouldn't otherwise get used
especially if you're using hydro in an
area you're not otherwise using
hydroelectric
dams here i get a comment hydroelectric
dams slow the flow of water running
through the turbines
also energy storage systems can store
solar and wind energy when there is a
surplus of energy
there is no lost energy opportunity
crypto energy
uh usage simply siphons energy from the
grid
period so this is this particular
person's argument and then this person
over here says that by the way
electricity can easily be transmitted
over large distances
so here's the thing maybe it's because
i'm running for governor in california
but nuance freaking matters i'm tired of
just broad statements without nuance
so my reply this is actually much more
complicated than appears first
utility scale batteries are nowhere near
cost a parity
solar and wind themselves are at cost
parity with natural gas which means
using solar and wind is
good but once you include utility scale
batteries we're nowhere even close to
that yet therefore
storing solar and wind energy when there
is a surplus is therefore not as easy as
you described
not yet at least this is the ambition
though obviously also to the other
comment
who mentioned that transmission lines
are easy not quite easier
either transmission lines come with
their own environmental challenges as
well as lawsuits from folks who do not
want
transmission lines running through their
neighborhoods or whatever their counties
or regions or whatever
they're also expensive to build
additionally slowing water flow for
hydro in an area that doesn't otherwise
rely on the water does not necessarily
make a difference
so all of a sudden when when folks are
are
very very narrowly focused on all
one thing you kind of forget that
life and investing is a whole lot
more complicated than a binary on and
off switch
keep that in mind if you want to learn
more about not being binary
