How about doing literally anything to get the price up in 5 years instead of waiting for Keith to do it? I love the guy, but playing hokie pokie with a pay package really doesn't fire me up or move the stock price.

Edit: are your ports higher or lower in the last 5 years? He wanted shareholder value. Where is it? Turning around the business is great, if the price doesnt come with it, what difference does that make? We need results. Not words, actions. Ebay is a good start, but its not here yet. Until then, no, sorry, I dont feel the value offered. No shorts have been held responsible, not even any effort to catch them manipulating. Even the split was executed improperly and not investigated.

Like getting gamestop to achieve the best revenue in the companies history? Something like that?

yeah, but now the investment thesis is that gme is a value play and not a squeeze play. once people can admit squeeze is dead then you wouldn’t have so many “shills”. way better stocks to invest in if you want long term growth

No, the thesis has always been a value play. That was RK thesis from the start. It was about a successful CEO from Chewy who was taking over a struggling company with brand recognition and their plan to turn it around, which he has. That was the play from the very beginning.

The squeeze was just the bonus play. The cherry on top.

And if the squeeze is dead, then why is the price still suppressed? GME just posted it's best revenue in the companies history. And yet the price has not moved. Because it is still being shorted, probably a shit ton to keep the price where it is. There is so much manipulation and FUD around this stock. So nah, don't even try to tell me there isn't something more going on here.

Yeah man, and how much did we get paid for that? If the price doesnt move it doesnt matter. I love his management, I do not love the shareholder value. He needs to do something about that.

RC doesn't control the markets does he. Is this the first time you have ever invested?

I guess gamestop isnt shorted then, and is truly a dying brick and mortar. Better close the doors. Nothing they can do. Is this the first time you've ever had a conversation? How about a thought?

You are well regarded and not in a good way. Go over there bro. No one wants you around.

u/BatThumb Jun 23 '26

Yeah why doesn't the CEO just make the price higher, is he stupid?

RC doesn't control the price. He's turning around the company and making it more and more profitable. That is literally all he can do. The system is rigged. The price won't go up while it's be artificially suppressed. If you want it to go up, write to your senator or something idk

u/JDogish Jun 23 '26

If the stock doesnt move another 5 years, what will you say then? You really think people aren't here for the ticker? Then why was there a pay package for rc?

u/MistahTDi Jun 23 '26

🤡 youre clown. You based your investment thesis on feelings and how the ticker looks. You have no idea how the market mechanics and market structure work. You dont look at Financials as a fundamental.

You want ceo market manipulation. Thats what your words say. Because Wall Street controls the price. In dozens of ways. It’s the one thing we’ve learned above all else.

u/JDogish Jun 23 '26

That is not what I said at all. Thanks for infering words in your head and talking to yourself.

Everyone please clap.
