AMC Stock and AABB Stock — The ABCs of Meme Investor Buying
AMC Stock and AABB Stock — The ABCs of Meme Investor Buying
InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading Tips
This article is excerpted from Tom Yeung's Moonshot Investor newsletter. To make sure you don't miss any of Tom's potential 100x picks, subscribe to his mailing list here.
With the holidays in full swing last week, it was easy to miss one noteworthy announcement:
RadioShack wants to rebrand as a crypto company.
You read that right.
The long-bankrupt firm — now owned by Miami-based Retail Ecommerce Ventures — plans to enter crypto by launching a RADIO token and catering to 68-year-old CEOs.
Right about now, you'd probably expect a crypto investor like me to say that buying the upcoming RADIO token is a terrible idea (it is) and that you shouldn't touch it with a 10-foot pole (do they come in 15-feet?).
But this is Cryptoland, a place where the worse a token's description gets, the better chance it seems to have in succeeding.
Radioshack isn't the only company trying to court millennial investors for money. CEOs from Social Capital's Chamath Palihapitiya to Tesla's (NASDAQ:TSLA) Elon Musk have dazzled a whole new generation of people looking to get rich. Don't have enough for a $94,990 car? How about buying $500 worth of fractional shares instead? (The logic also sadly applies to Mr. Palihapitiya's health insurance company).
- 7 Cheapened Stocks to Buy As We Ride Into 2022
Social media savvy CEOs are steering their followers to big gains. That's the main reason I introduced Asia Broadband (OTCMKTS:AABB) as a crypto play to buy last September amidst an OTC shakeout.
Asia Broadband (AABB)
I first picked out Asia Broadband when prices were at 11 cents. The Las Vegas-based gold mining company had largely given up on its supposed Mexican gold mining operations and was moving into gold-backed cryptocurrency instead.
The firm, of course, had more red flags than a slalom skiing course:
"Most of AABB's claims are likely exaggerated. The firm's unaudited financial statements show unusually high profits even in 2018 when prices in the gold industry collapsed And the AABBG cryptocurrency remains unlisted on major aggregators. It's a company that any traditional investor would write off as a possible pump."
— Moonshot Investor, September 27, 2021
… but I ended up putting the firm on my "buy" list anyway:
"For Reddit investors seeking a thrill ride, the long-term truth might not matter. When other unknown firms like Hello Pal International (OTCMKTS:HLLPF) can rise 4,500% after announcing cryptocurrency dreams, why wouldn't companies like AABB do the same?"
The reason was simple: some CEOs are consistently able to drum up investor excitement. And AABB's past "pivots" highlight a management team willing to do — or say — anything that works.
AABB has since been picked up by users on Stocktwits, a popular investing forum. Prices peaked at 33 cents over the holidays (a 200% gain!) before pulling back to 16 cents. At least we're still up 45%.
As Reddit investors continue hunting for "the next big thing," don't be surprised if AABB makes a second push for $1. The company's management has played investors before; they will likely do so again.
AMC Entertainment (AMC)
Theater chain CEO Adam Aron has proved himself an expert at playing the meme crowd. And at 67 years old, "Silverback" (as he's known among retail investors) is exactly the kind of CEO squarely in the crosshairs for RadioShack's pivot to blockchain.
"We proudly now accept: drumroll, please… Bitcoin, Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin. Also Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal. Incredibly, they already account for 14% of our total online transactions!" Mr. Aron tweeted in November. "Dogecoin next."
Pandering to the masses has been a game-changer for AMC (NYSE:AMC). The company has used its absurdly high share prices to raise $2 billion in fresh capital, pay down debts and beat out GameStop (NYSE:GME) to become the best-performing large stock of 2021. Who would have imagined a firm on the brink of bankruptcy in 2019 could make such a stunning financial comeback?
Of course, not every investor has won the AMC stock game. Those who bought in over the summer would have seen a 62% loss. And even now, AMC's current $27 price tag still represents a 70x multiple over its estimated free cash flow.
Yet 2022 looks set to become a box-office stunner. Spider-Man's success will be followed by other safe-bet sequels like Top Gun and Black Panther. And should AMC's share price falls into the teens, you can bet that Mr. Aron will have a few more tricks up his sleeve to help prices recover.
Bottom line: AABB is a meme stock ready to pop; investors should wait for the $10 to $20 range to start speculating in AMC.
Meme Stocks Without Meme CEOs
On the flip side, companies without marketable CEOs have seen share prices fall straight back to earth. Last week, shares in Bed Bath & Beyond (NASDAQ:BBBY) sank to their pre-pandemic (i.e., pre-meme) levels. Its $1.5 billion market capitalization now makes it comparable to non-meme rival Williams-Sonoma (NYSE:WSM) on a forward price-to-earnings basis.
It's as if the meme stock revolution never happened for BBBY.
Other firms are facing similar fates:
- Context Logic (NASDAQ:WISH). Down 83% since January 2021
- DraftKings (NASDAQ:DKNG). Down 41%
- Roku (NASDAQ:ROKU). Down 31%
- Kodak (NYSE:KODK). Down 42%
In every case, management has failed to grasp the importance of meme investors. Ask the average investment Joe/Jane to name any of their CEOs, and you can expect a blank stare. Their management has also largely avoided raising extra capital to fund growth.
Meanwhile, organizations like GameStop (Ryan Cohen), Tesla (Elon Musk), AMC (Adam Aron) and the Ethereum Foundation (Vitalik Buterin) continue to shine. These star CEOs have turned ordinary ventures into extraordinarily well-funded tech startups.
As 2022 rolls around, investors should expect the pattern to continue. When a single Tweet can sway millions of hearts (and billions of dollars), it's the social media savvy management teams that will ultimately succeed.
Will RadioShack Rise Again?
In truth, creating a successful cryptocurrency exchange is hard. Not only do you need to get security down perfectly (failing that can quickly turn your website into the next Mt. Gox), but you also need to draw in enough market makers to provide trading liquidity.
It's the reason why I tend to bet on the incumbents. In an industry that has positive economies of scale, it's the Ethereums (CCC:ETH-USD), Crypto.com Coins (CCC:CRO-USD), Binance Coins (CCC:BNB-USD) and Terra Lunas (CCC:LUNA-USD) that will win.
For that same reason, I'm bearish about the long-term outlooks of small-time crypto wallets like AABB or RadioShack. These upstarts have neither the talent nor vision of their better-known larger competitors.
Yet, the short and medium-term are always full of surprises. People often forget that Radioshack's stock rose 100% in 2013 (and at least once more in 2014) before finally succumbing to bankruptcy in 2015. And if you're willing to bet on the dying breaths of a bygone retailer, there's no better place to start than with RADIO, a well-timed plug for the modern meme investor.

隨著上週假期的如火如荼地進行,人們很容易錯過一個值得注意的聲明:
RadioShack想要將品牌重新命名為密碼公司。
你沒看錯。
這家長期破產的公司-現在歸總部位於邁阿密的公司所有零售電商風險投資-計劃通過推出無線電令牌來進入加密,並迎合68歲的首席執行官。
現在,你可能會預料到像我這樣的密碼投資者會說,購買即將到來的無線電令牌是一個糟糕的想法(的確如此),你不應該用10英尺長的杆子觸摸它(它們是15英尺長的嗎?)。
但這是加密島,在這裡更糟代幣的描述越多,它成功的機會就越大。
RadioShack並不是唯一一家試圖吸引千禧一代投資者賺錢的公司。首席執行官來自社會資本Chaath Palihapitiya to特斯拉的(納斯達克:特斯拉)埃隆·馬斯克讓希望致富的新一代人目瞪口呆。買一輛94,990美元的車還不夠嗎?購買價值500美元的零碎股票怎麼樣?(遺憾的是,這一邏輯也適用於帕裡哈皮蒂亞的醫療保險公司)。
- 隨著我們進入2022年,7只廉價股票將被買入
精通社交媒體的CEO們正在引導他們的追隨者獲得巨大收益。這是我介紹的主要原因亞洲寬帶(OTCMKTS:AABB)作為一種密碼遊戲,在去年9月場外交易市場的洗牌中購買。
亞洲寬帶(AABB)
我第一次選擇亞洲寬帶的時候,價格是11美分。這家總部位於拉斯維加斯的金礦公司在很大程度上放棄了其所謂的墨西哥黃金開採業務,轉而轉向黃金支持的加密貨幣。
當然,該公司面臨的危險信號比激流回旋滑雪課程更多:
“AABB的大部分說法可能被誇大了。該公司未經審計的財務報表顯示,即使在2018年黃金行業價格暴跌、AABBG加密貨幣仍未在主要聚合器上上市時,該公司的利潤也異常高。它是一家任何傳統投資者都會認為可能的提振因素的公司。”
-Moonshot Investor,2021年9月27日
…但不管怎樣,我還是把這家公司列入了我的“買入”名單:
對於尋求驚險刺激的Reddit投資者來說,長期真相可能並不重要。當其他不知名的公司,如Hello Pal International(OTCMKTS:HLLPF)在宣佈加密貨幣夢想後可以上漲4,500%,為什麼像AABB這樣的公司不會做同樣的事情呢?
原因很簡單:一些首席執行官能夠始終如一地激發投資者的熱情。AABB過去的“重心”突顯出一個管理團隊願意做--或說--任何管用的事情。
自那以後,AABB在頗受歡迎的投資論壇Stocktwits上被用戶轉載。假期期間,價格達到了33美分的峰值(上漲了200%!)在拉回到16美分之前。至少我們仍上漲了45%。
在Reddit的投資者繼續尋找“下一個大熱門”之際,如果AABB再次向1美元發起挑戰,不要感到驚訝。該公司管理層以前也曾與投資者較量過;他們很可能會再次這麼做。
AMC娛樂公司(AMC)
連鎖影院首席執行官亞當·阿倫證明瞭自己是玩弄表情包人群的專家。現年67歲的“銀背”(在散戶投資者中被稱為“Silverback”)正是RadioShack轉向區塊鏈的那種直接瞄準的首席執行官。
“我們現在自豪地接受:鼓點,請…位元幣,以太,位元幣現金,萊特幣。還有蘋果支付,谷歌支付,貝寶。令人難以置信的是,它們已經佔到了我們在線交易總額的14%!”去年11月,阿倫在Twitter上發帖。“下一個是狗狗。”
迎合大眾一直是遊戲規則的改變者AMC(紐約證券交易所:AMC)。該公司利用其高得離譜的股價籌集了20億美元的新資本,償還了債務,並擊敗了遊戲停止(紐約證券交易所:GME)成為2021年表現最好的大型股票。誰能想到,2019年一家瀕臨破產的公司能在財務上捲土重來,令人驚嘆?
當然,並不是每個投資者都贏了AMC的股票遊戲。那些在夏天買入的人將看到62%的損失。即使是現在,AMC目前27美元的價格仍是其估計自由現金流的70倍。
然而,2022年看起來將成為票房大片。蜘蛛俠的在成功之後,還會有其他穩妥的續集,比如TOP槍和黑豹。而且,如果AMC的股價跌到十幾歲,你可以打賭,阿倫會有更多的訣竅來幫助股價回升。
一句話:AABB是一隻準備暴跌的迷因股票;投資者應該等待10至20美元的區間開始投機AMC。
沒有Meme CEO的Meme股票
另一方面,公司如果沒有有市場的首席執行官們眼睜睜地看著股價直接回落。上週,該公司股票床浴及更上一層樓(納斯達克:BBBY)下降到大流行前(即,模因前)的水準。其15億美元的市值現在使其可以與非Meme競爭對手相媲美威廉姆斯-索諾馬(紐約證券交易所:WSM)按預期本益比計算。
這就好像BBBY從未發生過表情包股票革命一樣。
其他公司也面臨著類似的命運:
- 語境邏輯(納斯達克:祝願)。自2021年1月以來下跌了83%
- DraftKing(納斯達克:DKNG).下跌41%
- 羅庫(納斯達克:羅庫).下跌31%
- 柯達(紐約證券交易所:KODK).下跌42%
在每一個案例中,管理層都未能意識到迷因投資者的重要性。如果讓普通投資人Joe/建恩說出他們的CEO,你可能會被茫然地盯著。它們的管理層也在很大程度上避免籌集額外資本來為增長提供資金。
與此同時,遊戲停止(Ryan Cohen)、特斯拉(Elon Musk)、AMC(Adam Aron)和以太基金會(Vitalik Buterin)等組織繼續大放異彩。這些明星CEO將普通企業變成了資金異常充裕的科技初創企業。
隨著2022年的臨近,投資者應該預計這種模式將繼續下去。當一條推文可以動搖數百萬人的心(和數十億美元)時,精通社交媒體的管理團隊最終將取得成功。
RadioShack會再次崛起嗎?
事實上,創建一個成功的加密貨幣交易所是硬的。你不僅需要完美地降低安全性(如果做不到這一點,你的網站很快就會變成下一個Mt.但你也需要吸引足夠多的做市商來提供交易流動性。
這就是為什麼我傾向於把賭注押在現任者身上的原因。在一個擁有正性規模經濟,這是以太(CCC:ETH-美元),Crypto.com硬幣(CCC:CRO-美元),Binance硬幣(CCC:BNB-美元)和地球上的月球(CCC:露娜--美元)這將是勝利的。
出於同樣的原因,我對長期AABB或RadioShack等小額加密錢包的前景。這些後起之秀既沒有他們更知名的大型競爭對手的才華,也沒有他們的遠見。
然而,短期和中期總是充滿驚喜。人們經常忘記,Radioshack的股價在2013年上漲了100%(2014年至少又上漲了一次),最終在2015年破產。如果你願意押注於一家昔日零售商的垂死,那麼沒有什麼比收音機更好的起點了,它是現代迷因投資者的一個及時的廣告。
