FULL TRANSCRIPT

0:00

no in this video we are going to talk

0:02

about the amc

0:03

squeeze and is the squeeze squoze i'm

0:06

going to give a full details on this but

0:08

i'm going to start

0:08

by talking about a gme because it is

0:10

very important that you

0:11

look at previous companies and trades

0:15

especially momentum related trades

0:16

to get an understanding of how short

0:18

squeezes can work

0:20

so first we are all extremely extremely

0:23

familiar

0:23

with the gamestop short squeeze in fact

0:25

we may have met during the

0:26

gamestop short squeeze if we did leave a

0:28

comment down below but folks

0:30

take a look at this we went from a

0:32

massive short interest of around 150

0:35

to a massive squeeze on gme on my

0:38

birthday january 28th

0:40

we covered this live all day long until

0:43

the suits stopped us from being able to

0:45

buy preventing further gamma squeezing

0:46

of the stock

0:47

this could have gone to a thousand

0:49

dollars but it didn't

0:51

because the suits stopped it from

0:53

happening which is very frustrating but

0:55

what i want you to understand

0:56

is the pattern look at this in fact i'm

0:58

going to go out to the year chart here

1:00

i'm going to hide myself for a moment

1:01

take a look at the pattern high high

1:04

short interest data

1:05

now take this with a grain of salt okay

1:07

this is s3 partners

1:09

that is the black app we understand that

1:12

these are just

1:12

estimates okay so take this with a grain

1:14

of salt but we do believe that gamestop

1:16

was over 137 percent short

1:18

that is generally accepted going into

1:20

january on january 28th we had this

1:22

massive

1:23

squeeze that was round one of the

1:25

squeeze

1:26

we sort of bled short interest for a few

1:29

weeks after

1:30

leading into the last week of february

1:32

and then guess what we had

1:33

we had an inflection point look at that

1:35

right here around feb 23

1:37

24 25 we had an inflection point and we

1:40

had a

1:40

second squeeze this is very important i

1:43

want you to think of this

1:44

like literally people going shopping for

1:47

lemons when life gives you lemons you

1:49

put them in your shopping cart and you

1:50

wait for the squeeze

1:51

you put them in shopping cart and

1:52

picture it kind of like a bunch of

1:54

people reaching down the shopping cart

1:55

and go

1:55

game stop squeeze okay got some juice

1:57

out of that one it doesn't mean it's dry

2:00

in fact sometimes lemons get even more

2:02

juicy over time

2:03

as the suits reload their shorts and you

2:06

can pick it up again and you go ah

2:08

you've reloaded thank you very much

2:10

squeeze again okay

2:11

squeezes there's not one squeeze squeeze

2:14

is not a

2:14

singular and this is very important

2:17

because we always want to be very clear

2:18

when we're talking

2:19

and when we're listening and

2:21

understanding what we believe is

2:22

happening in the market

2:23

we should be very clear with what we're

2:25

what we're saying

2:26

and and we should then reiterate what we

2:29

believe we heard

2:29

to confirm that what we heard is correct

2:31

and so when there are rumors going

2:33

around suggesting kevin start to squeeze

2:35

the squaws

2:36

it's very important do you realize that

2:38

is not what i said regarding amc

2:41

and again we're going to continue this

2:42

discussion by using gme as an example

2:45

so look at the look at the chart here

2:47

look at the chart

2:48

first big squeeze january 28th massive

2:52

inflection point in the short interest

2:53

data to the downside

2:54

what did i say march 20 march like

2:57

literally february 23rd

2:59

24th 25th you just saw it on the chart

3:01

look at the look at the pricing move up

3:03

this is your second squeeze

3:06

i kid you not this is how this works it

3:09

is like a lemon that you squeeze

3:11

over and over and over again period of

3:13

consolidation

3:15

lemon gets juicy again what happens

3:18

another squeeze i kid you not there is

3:21

no singular squeeze

3:22

why do we know this looks pretty flat

3:25

over looks pretty flat over here in this

3:26

corner right it looks pretty flat right

3:28

go to the last 60 days look at the chart

3:30

boom see that decline

3:32

inflection point squeeze these

3:35

are individual squeezes of the lemon

3:38

that does not mean the lemon is dry

3:41

that does not mean the game is over that

3:43

does not mean the lemon can't get

3:45

juicy and refilled again so we need to

3:48

talk about

3:49

amc now that we understand this this

3:52

right here

3:53

on this chart is an example

3:56

of a squeeze it is not necessarily

4:01

the only squeeze i don't believe that

4:03

there is a the

4:04

squeeze this is just an example

4:07

of a squeeze and so when we see

4:11

short interest data go from 23 or 24

4:15

down to where we sit now around we

4:18

actually sat all the way down 11

4:20

at one point and uh this has been then

4:22

revised up

4:23

then we know well wait a minute maybe

4:26

maybe that means we have

4:27

uh we have more squeezes in the pipeline

4:29

in fact let's look at some of the recent

4:31

data

4:31

but first i want you to see this take a

4:33

look at uh

4:34

amc right here amc also had a run

4:38

around january 28th right here look at

4:41

this

4:41

january 25 right around the peak here

4:44

to peak and then we fall and squeeze by

4:47

the 28th and down into early february

4:49

it's the same thing it's the same

4:52

pattern

4:53

you can have multiple squeezes in fact

4:55

go out here

4:56

let's go to we'll stick on the day chart

4:59

but let's go to

5:00

amc go to the beginning of the year

5:03

all right it's certainly not as

5:05

prominent as what we've seen here

5:08

but when we zoom in over here and you

5:10

kind of forget for a moment that we're

5:11

at 60 bucks

5:13

uh for amc right now if you're in in the

5:15

low 50 we're at 54

5:16

right now but you know what i mean take

5:18

a look at this going from

5:20

three dollars four dollars to dollars

5:23

and 36 cents

5:25

at the same time we have an inflection

5:27

point

5:28

down in short interest data is a form of

5:31

a squeeze but then amc got juicy again

5:35

the lemon filled up and we got another

5:38

squeeze now that does not mean that

5:41

we're done

5:42

if anything that means we have the

5:45

potential

5:46

of suits reloading their their lemons

5:49

again because they do that they're suits

5:51

okay

5:52

they like here's the thing you gotta

5:54

think human psychology okay

5:56

people don't wanna be wrong nobody wants

5:58

to be wrong i

5:59

don't give a crap about being wrong i

6:01

admit i'm wrong all the freaking time it

6:02

doesn't matter

6:03

it doesn't freaking matter to me because

6:05

when i admit i'm wrong

6:07

i learn and i adapt unlike

6:11

uh unlike here let's go here let's look

6:13

at this financial times

6:15

uh here it is actually i have it saved

6:16

right here boom unlike these folks

6:19

boom right here hedge fund that bet

6:22

against gamestop shuts down

6:24

that's right they failed to admit they

6:26

were wrong they

6:27

failed to adjust and now they're closing

6:30

their doors because they suck

6:32

and if you want to get in touch they

6:34

have a website

6:35

that'll let you uh scroll down over here

6:38

and you can reach out to them to let

6:40

them know how you feel

6:41

see look you want info on being investor

6:44

you want a career

6:45

probably don't want a career especially

6:48

since they're closing down

6:49

but the point is this is their website

6:51

uh white square capital

6:53

anyway leave them alone uh so the point

6:56

is

6:57

suits don't like being wrong uh they

7:00

they would rather close down their fund

7:02

and re-brand and come back as a new

7:05

villain in the future because you know

7:06

that's all they're going to do

7:08

the suits have the potential to continue

7:11

to reload

7:12

their shorts and guess folks what is

7:14

happening

7:15

look at the share utilization here we're

7:18

seeing

7:19

more shares being utilized we are seeing

7:21

the short

7:22

interest start ticking up look at this

7:25

last week we were sitting around 11

7:28

previous reading here was 13.17

7:31

now it's 13.99 so short interest is

7:34

going

7:35

up again we are seeing utilization go

7:38

up again we are seeing a similar thing i

7:40

believe here on the black app estimate

7:43

let me go into the last 60 days here and

7:46

hide myself

7:47

so it's slight but you do see that

7:49

slight increase here

7:51

in short interest 1334 based on black

7:54

cap

7:54

it's very it's a very good idea to use

7:56

multiple sources of data

7:58

or texts s3 partners use other sources

8:02

of data as well

8:02

especially if they do daily estimates

8:04

okay this is one thing that drives me

8:06

nuts

8:06

is sometimes people go like oh you know

8:09

my friend went in the bloomberg terminal

8:10

and they saw the short interest

8:12

was x and i'm like dude you can't look

8:15

at stuff that's two weeks old

8:17

you gotta use the day-to-day estimates

8:19

okay

8:20

so knowing what date a short interest

8:23

reading is from very very important

8:24

you start googling short interest and

8:26

you get old readings it could totally

8:28

skew your

8:29

your investment thesis for company now

8:32

when there are rumors suggesting oh my

8:34

gosh that's great that's gross

8:36

i hope you now understand that i'm not

8:38

saying the squeeze is close

8:40

i'm saying lemons get squeezed multiple

8:43

times

8:44

going from 24 to 11 is a form of a

8:48

squeeze

8:49

when at the same time the price goes

8:51

from 15

8:52

to over 70. okay that is a form of a

8:55

squeeze

8:56

that does not mean there's not going to

8:57

be another one and right now it looks to

8:59

me like

9:00

the suits are gearing up for some more

9:02

shorting which is creating this downward

9:04

pressure right now on amc i think that's

9:06

why the share price is also down two and

9:07

a half percent

9:08

and i think they're just reloading now i

9:10

will say

9:11

there is a slight additional problem

9:14

that we have

9:14

and that is called a reduction of volume

9:17

we

9:18

need volume in a momentum stock to guess

9:20

what

9:21

have momentum right now we have a

9:23

reduction in volume

9:24

this is not necessarily bad as

9:27

long as it leads to some kind of

9:29

potential breakout catalyst

9:32

which can happen you could very easily

9:34

get an uptick in short interest data

9:36

even more than what we're seeing now

9:38

leading to a new and renewed interest in

9:41

in people investing in amc

9:43

you see volume double or triple boom

9:46

this thing skyrockets right back to 70

9:48

or 80 dollars

9:49

i watch amc by the minute because it's

9:52

very important that i keep an eye on my

9:53

charts and my trades

9:55

now this right here when you have volume

9:57

declining can sometimes be a symptom of

9:59

a consolidation trend

10:01

we're not really seeing pricing break

10:03

below our 51

10:05

support level which is good this is a

10:07

very strong support level

10:09

i teach my support levels my trading

10:11

style in my stocks in psychology of

10:13

money program we talk about this kind of

10:15

stuff in my stocks in psychology money

10:16

programs

10:17

we talk about the lemon lemons getting

10:19

squeezed in my private livestreams

10:20

we talk about how there are multiple

10:22

squeezes

10:24

our world is not singular we are in

10:27

a plurality or as some like to say

10:30

a simulation okay so it's very very

10:33

important to know that there's much much

10:35

more

10:35

nuance that comes to investing you want

10:38

to see how nuanced investing can get

10:40

here's just a very very simple example

10:42

and it's very important lesson for you

10:44

to listen in on okay

10:45

so i made this video about how crypto

10:47

mining can be very very good for using

10:49

energy that wouldn't otherwise get used

10:50

especially if you're using hydro in an

10:52

area you're not otherwise using

10:53

hydroelectric

10:54

dams here i get a comment hydroelectric

10:56

dams slow the flow of water running

10:58

through the turbines

10:59

also energy storage systems can store

11:01

solar and wind energy when there is a

11:02

surplus of energy

11:03

there is no lost energy opportunity

11:06

crypto energy

11:07

uh usage simply siphons energy from the

11:09

grid

11:10

period so this is this particular

11:11

person's argument and then this person

11:14

over here says that by the way

11:16

electricity can easily be transmitted

11:18

over large distances

11:19

so here's the thing maybe it's because

11:21

i'm running for governor in california

11:23

but nuance freaking matters i'm tired of

11:25

just broad statements without nuance

11:28

so my reply this is actually much more

11:30

complicated than appears first

11:32

utility scale batteries are nowhere near

11:34

cost a parity

11:36

solar and wind themselves are at cost

11:39

parity with natural gas which means

11:40

using solar and wind is

11:42

good but once you include utility scale

11:43

batteries we're nowhere even close to

11:45

that yet therefore

11:46

storing solar and wind energy when there

11:48

is a surplus is therefore not as easy as

11:49

you described

11:50

not yet at least this is the ambition

11:52

though obviously also to the other

11:54

comment

11:54

who mentioned that transmission lines

11:56

are easy not quite easier

11:58

either transmission lines come with

12:00

their own environmental challenges as

12:01

well as lawsuits from folks who do not

12:03

want

12:03

transmission lines running through their

12:05

neighborhoods or whatever their counties

12:07

or regions or whatever

12:08

they're also expensive to build

12:10

additionally slowing water flow for

12:11

hydro in an area that doesn't otherwise

12:13

rely on the water does not necessarily

12:15

make a difference

12:16

so all of a sudden when when folks are

12:19

are

12:20

very very narrowly focused on all

12:23

one thing you kind of forget that

12:26

life and investing is a whole lot

12:29

more complicated than a binary on and

12:33

off switch

12:34

keep that in mind if you want to learn

12:36

more about not being binary
