Wimpy isn't exactly Harry Potter, but...

Posted by: dirtyname on Mar 01, 15:16 in response to MiyazakiFan's post Percy Jackson was undertracked quite a bit...

As with your co-workers, my son has read every book and they are very popular in his age group - 8-10 year olds...

WIMPY is currently my largest holding at 30k shares, though I came late to the game and got them at an average price of $55...so if this prediction is right, I'm going to take a bath.

I'm basing my massive bet on my own anecdotal evidence of my son's pure delight in the books, and the enthusiasm shown by other kids in his class.  They are geeked for this film.  I hope there are hundreds of thousands of kids just like them!

Zippo.. {nm}   notfabio on Feb 28, 23:16

For the curious.....RS has also pegged (editor opinion) some long range openings..   notfabio on Feb 28, 23:16

Thanks Notfabio....bit of fun, will be interesting to see how these eventually play out...   Somerset on Feb 28, 23:51

thanks notfabio. Any idea about winter olympics impact on sunday BO? {nm}   shawman on Feb 28, 23:23

Unfortunately no. {nm}   notfabio on Mar 01, 00:06

Thanks. Really NICE Number For Alice Which I Can Deffentially See Claiming The All-Time March Opening Record.   wrongturn687 on Feb 28, 23:46

..while my first impulse would be that Diary appears high, there actually has been significant advance interest in it from parents. {nm}   notfabio on Mar 01, 00:06

Bounty Hunter looks pretty high - am overseas, is this geeting a heavy, visible marketing push over in the US? {nm}   Somerset on Feb 28, 23:53

RS 3/5 Tracking - Tagging for Reference   numbersix_99 on Mar 01, 02:26

why would "remember me" do so much worse than "dear john"? {nm}   dr_hmcd on Mar 03, 20:01

ALCNW mid 70s brkln mid singles. LOL. Good thing I ignore their 'tracking'. {nm}   java030 on Mar 08, 00:31

I call bull on the Bounty Hunter prediction... just like I did on them claiming Alice will be in the mid-40s just two weeks ago. {nm}   secretstalker on Mar 01, 03:49

Actually, it was three weeks ago... but they've essentially added $10 million every week.   secretstalker on Mar 01, 03:54

Why would that be a problem?Especially if you yourself are aware of the pattern?RS,for all of their research,is only offering an opinion. {nm}   Phatcat on Mar 01, 07:24

Even if you're aware of the pattern, other people might not be. So you have to watch out for sudden fluctuations in price. {nm}   RogerMore on Mar 01, 10:28

Percy Jackson was undertracked quite a bit...   MiyazakiFan on Mar 01, 09:48
