Have a thesis and a disciplined strategy that covers a wide range of scenarios. Adjust accordingly as new information comes in.
For every outcome, your hand stays steady. You already faced these probabilities & developed a plan accordingly. Execute.
No matter who you are, it's still not as easy as it sounds. One mistake can rattle you into strategy abandonment after a spree of flawless execution. Learn & improve, or derail.
For me,
$GME is undervalued. And I like the stock.
I like the long term thesis. eBay is a global legacy brand that can be largely automated by AI. Its services are ideal in an economy where people are looking to both save money & make money on goods. It has immense upside and plenty of synergies with GME's operations. It's a perfect acquisition target. I expect there will be more, similar acquisition targets in the Cohen era. For those reasons, I am long GME.
I like the short term thesis. I estimate GME's standalone strategic value at ~$28. I estimate the combined value of GME+EBAY with rollover equity for the stock consideration, to be ~$37. And I also like the downside protection. The media values GME+EBAY at ~$23 with spot issuance for the stock consideration. And there is a strong level of support at $23 where Cohen made his largest ever open market purchase.
Charts, swaps, indicators, exchange activity; all noise for me. Again, for these reasons, I like the stock.
Suck my balls Street.
