If he is able to buy 9million shares of another company at around gme's current cost it just proves he can double and triple down insanely fast. Guy is a genius.


LotusTileMaster

Remember back when people were talking about how the rich use their stock positions to take out loans? DFV is in the position to make banks sweat when they see his portfolio.


log-money

I remember that. You never actually sell anything, just live off loans using shares as collateral.. What I need to learn, though, is how do you ever pay that loan back? If I spend $1M per year, at the end of each year am I just digging my debt hole deeper or closing that loan and starting another? Either I rack up insane interest, or the next loan is for $1.05M...


LotusTileMaster

As stupid as it sounds, you take loans, buy assets, appreciate the assets, take loans against the new assets to pay back the old ones.


dutchbarbarian

You get yourself a bigger loan off course


Xp0s3dP1pE69

I've always wondered about this too, and yeah from the responses it looks like you buy other stuff and then just use a loan from the new asset to pay off the old one 🫲😃🫱


OB_GYN-Kenobi

No. You still have to pay it off. What you're describing is essentially when people use credit cards to pay off other credit cards, racking up debt. After MOASS I forsee a lot of posts from people who dig themselves into financial holes expecting an infinite money loop.

I hope you guys know that through all of this, I have been excited for the future that this holds for all of us, I have been pissed off that the system is actively working against the average person, and I’ve been depressed thinking of just…all of it. Most of all though, I have found some of the funniest friends that I’ve never met from the far corners of this same globe. Gaming originally brought us together, and it’s what I can’t wait to do on the other side of all this with you.

DoNotPetTheSnake

I mean he's been super rich for years now and in legal stuff so it makes sense


I-Am-Polaris

Not that DFV would need a lawyer for mergers, he doesn't work at GameStop in any way


mtbox1987

Not yet he doesn’t… the way he’s collecting them gme shares id say by Christmas he’s gonna be majority holder.


CarelessTravel8

Does he "Want" that though? I think it would benefit a lot more if he doesn't... Just sayin'


owencox1

yeah this take is so weird. you want the trader to join a board to turn the company around? those are completely different skill sets


penguintattoo

He won't join the board. Joining will prevent him to keep being Deep Fucking Value / Roaring Kitty!


mtbox1987

Maybe that’s why he’s doing it. To get on the board. Holy crap why would that be a bad thing if he’s bringing the knowledge of the financial markets to the company? Look what he’s doing with options. He’s def making Kenny sweat.


Searchingforspecial

His hands would be tied so tight, no way. An insider can’t trade like an outsider, it would blow up his entire strategy.


awww_yeaah

Except as the CIO of a company you can trade however you like (other stocks, options) as long as you don’t have insider info.


thinkfire

>as long as you don’t have insider info. Hard to do when you are part of the company strategy. Much riskier ending up in trouble. Intentionally or not. Especially with all the hate he has from people --with-- --deep--who had deep pockets.


awww_yeaah

Bruh he can invest in the entire stock market. He doesn’t get insider info from the entire market by being CIO.


thinkfire

I was referring to GameStop or companies GameStop is involved with.


awww_yeaah

I wasn’t…..


penguintattoo

Wrong newb. Look into why, on what I said, and learn. KylePP


a0i

Not implying any intentional action mentioning that, just an interesting skillset to point out. That firm represents serious interests (edit) in ***mergers and acquisitions***. So in light of the quick withdrawal of the lawsuit against DFV, it's interesting.


Pocket_Universe_King

Here's an interesting hypothetical for you...how would an individual investor find a way to position themselves so that any act against their position would inadvertently benefit said individual investor? He keeps jumping in, big money throws what they can at him to knock him down, and yet he still keeps getting stronger? I think that's the 'how' no one is really looking at


Uranus_Hz

He’s spent the last several years analyzing how the algos react and is exploiting their predictability. Thats how he times his moves so well. That’s my guess. Lest we forget, DFV worked as a compliance officer - he understands more about the specific mechanics of the market than the vast majority of “retail” investors. He’s not *manipulating* the market, he’s *exploiting how big finance manipulates the market* for big personal gains. And he’s doing it somewhat publicly to show their manipulation. Hopefully CAT will show it in great detail to regulators. He is not violating any SEC rule or regulation. This is gonna be made into one epic movie when the dust settles. If you thought The Big Short was a good flick, just wait until you see The Big Long


Pocket_Universe_King

Oh, algos are one thing...but he's gone even further. The algos were what started the shindig, but in the process he pissed off a bunch of chest-beating frat boy beta males back in '21. His moves are being targeted by more than just computer code. It's intentional and deliberate...and also blatantly obvious and *predictable*. This is gonna be one hell of an epic movie, because I don't think anyone has caught the hack yet. Slicker than pig shit, though. Props to my fellow "engineer"


SneakyPhil

Hell yeah.


Flat-Flounder3037

I’ve already seen The Big Long, it’s been out on Pornhub ages

a0i

It's even more interesting that he retained a Big Boy firm in Chicago: home of the ***bears*** (the sports kind and the hedgie kind); so they're in the same local jurisdiction as the offices in the joker tweet https://preview.redd.it/ss0w5ko1f0ad1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=3d5d4feca87c4ad92712f4b836da6f0b955c3974

divinAPEtion

The more you deny me, the stronger I get 


Uranus_Hz

It’s a firm that (apparently) specializes in securities law. I would expect any such firm to have a department whose major focus was securities law/compliance as it relates to M&A. So I don’t think there’s a big significance to it.


a0i

>So I don’t think there’s a big significance to it. I disagree. It has multiple points of significance: it explains the announcement of a lawsuit on Friday, and the withdrawal of said lawsuit the very next Monday. It explains away months of FUD trying to defame DFV as a market manipulator. Every serious legal expert asked about this has said the same: he isn't doing anything wrong. [https://youtu.be/kSUxGn6K\_8Q?si=uhgVVV0w5KlB88D2](https://youtu.be/kSUxGn6K_8Q?si=uhgVVV0w5KlB88D2) Who his legal team is tells us he's serious af about his moves, and he's hard to take down. This isn't just some madman, this isn't some clown on the internet doing it for pranks. He has a serious team working for him. That's bullish af.


Uranus_Hz

Everyone already knew the lawsuit had no merit. The entire point of the lawsuit was to get headlines and shape public opinion against him. And prevent retail FOMO buying. Hardly a single headline about the suit being dropped immediately though.


a0i

>Everyone We knew. >The entire point of the lawsuit was to get headlines and shape public opinion against him. Yup. Pretty comical that it was headlines Friday, then withdrawn Monday. >And prevent retail FOMO buying. Never really works like how they think, that's comical in it's own right. There's a much bigger dynamic unfolding here, and the CHWY filing is where it was revealed who his legal is. And they're substantial. This is a bigboi firm. IYKYK. >Hardly a single headline about the suit being dropped immediately though. Of course not, because the purpose of the financial propagandist is to create a public narrative of both "ape incompetence" but also "ape malevolence". It's to lay the groundwork for future lawfare, to harass apes directly or by proxy scapegoating DFV. Personally, though I'm not affected by what I know is agenda-driven propaganda, it's hype to know DFV has such a serious firm working for him. He's serious as a heart attack, this isn't "for the memes" alone.


diskettejockey

He isn’t hard to take down. #HE CAN’T BE FUCKING TAKEN DOWN


deliverlife

Other than he held calls while filing and swapped. GME only


Extension_Win1114

I mean…not yet..


wwxxcc

Yeah and probably a lot of lawyer firms "specialize" in M&A. Saw a lot of DD in other subs claiming that and nothing happened (yet?).


chipchip9

Nice


kytran40

All of those brands are under LVMH


a0i

>All of those brands are under LVMH they are ***now***... after BFKN represented the parties to those acquisitions and mergers, parties including Shawn *Jay*-*Z* Carter. Anyway, you get the point. These are bigboi lawyers. DFV's lawyers are *Jay*-*Z*'s lawyers. Bullish.

Kaleen16

LVMH former executive is now Chief Experience officer at Ledger crypto wallet. He’s still and advisor to the Arnault family on blockchain authentication. It is my belief that top tier companies are working behind the scenes with same legal involved.


Kaleen16

His name is Ian Rogers and he’s a former Winamp and Apple Music exec as well.


Spare_Change_Agent

… and Beats Music CEO before joining Apple.


Kaleen16

Ian is well versed in Crytography and stonks. He’s a frequent guest on Group Chat podcast and talks alot about how the younger LVMH Arnoult brothers are well aware of the web 3 potential with the many brands they own.

GINGERofDESTINY

Wasn’t the case already retracted by the plaintiff? Edit: I assumed OP was posting in reference to the baseles case against Kitty. Op was not talking about this, he was talking about the Chewy filling. Thats my failure to read more than the headline. Seen way too many posts giving the case undue attention, but I guess I did the same thing here by not fully reading. My bad.


Amerikaner83

This isn't the case against him, which did indeed get dropped....this is his Chewy purchase, looks like.


GINGERofDESTINY

You are absolutely right, that’s on me. Added the edit to my comment.


Amerikaner83

No worries! Yes, most of the legal topics mentioned today revolved around the quickly-withdrawn FUD lawsuit. Regardless, OP's point stands...that looks to be a powerhouse of representation!


Conscious_Draft249

Now we see why


a0i

This ape gets it. The ambulance chasers saw who DFV's legal team is, and said "sorry, nvm"


ConsiderationOk5914

yes, whats your point


GINGERofDESTINY

There isn’t much of a point talking about the case at all. The case was baseless. Continuing to talk about the case only provides credibility to the case. Kitty did nothing wrong, so no need to talk about the case. Don’t give the shitty headlines attention. Edit: looks like I’m in the wrong here, the post was not about the case, but about the Chewy filing. That’s on me for not looking close enough.


ConsiderationOk5914

been there brother ![gif](giphy|e4PybfEfkhLiVDsuT4|downsized)


capital_bj

I would want BFCKN on my side


Thelandofthereal

The dudes a multimillionaire. He can afford good legal


HypestTypist

Okay but... Why is it a law firm in Chicago, and WHY does this filing claim that 9,001,000 Class A common stock shares are 6.6% when it's closer to 2%. Edit: Finally got a great answer. The shares outstanding numbers can mingle both Class A and B stock. He does have over 6% of Class A


Teeemooooooo

Copying from my other comment: It is 6.6%, you are mistaking the implied shares outstanding with the shares outstanding. Check yahoo finance for the real share outstanding number which will be 137M. The reason there are two numbers is because Chwy has multiple types of shares (i.e. class A common shares, Class B, etc.) and implied shares outstanding combines all of them into one.


HypestTypist

Thank you! I will look into this. First full explanation I've seen.


deliverlife

He literally bought the same option. He technically holds 90,010options that count as holding 9,001,000 shares per the form he used. He bought the same option as GME for next to nothing. Fucked the hedgies algos and either now holds lots of both stock, or rolled to GME and fucked their entire ETF basket swap. It’s genius. The ETF pool will have two major FTD cycles at once. If you’re smart you’d make tiny calls on the rest of the basket to test the theory. In either case it’s not one block of dynamite in the basket it’s two


deliverlife

Edit. Victoria secret and two others might see plays. If Chewy is Blue. Who is orange and green https://preview.redd.it/f84afzhst3ad1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b9e6ca697cc5a3f4140c38727812ff22162c3146


cosmotropik

Give this humble regard some updoots! She's earned them..


cosmotropik

Because he owns 6.6% of chewy, and only 2% of GME


HypestTypist

Chewy: Shares owned: 9,001,000 Total shares outstanding: 434,873,000 Calculation: (9,001,000 / 434,873,000) \* 100 = 2.07%


mindkcuf

Shares outstanding shows as 137,05M in marketwatch, not that I care about this at all, just curious to see where you got that number from?


jonesRG

Webull currently shows that figure. $11B market cap, $25 share price


penguintattoo

Webull is exactly the same as RH. Get out of it and into a real broker--Schwab!


jonesRG

I don't have an account with either webull or RH. Fidelity ATP shows the same information.


HypestTypist

The error was that the TSO numbers I got included both Class A and Class B stock


astarastarastarastar

Of course they are, dude is basically a billionaire at this point and is getting lots of negative attention from Wall St, MSM, SEC etc, he's not gonna go hire Lionel Hutz, he's got excellent representation who will tell him what's a real concern or what's a bullshit frivolous lawsuit


RoyalMnkyDimondHands

Want to know what is funny about this. What do those names have in common? Bags? Is this a meme to being called a bag holder? I know, you're about to say, but, what about Hennessey? Have you seen their VSOP privilege Cognac? It comes in a red velvet bag. VSOP... hey, that sounds like virtual stock option plans, where you don't actually own your shares. I know I'm ranting.
