Investment math on Avengers 2... Please let me know if I am missing a variable here or I didn't calculate correctly dioneta Jul 21, 18:51

The other issue I can of is that the money is passive until delist.... {nm} dioneta Jul 21, 19:01

47 million traded and only up 2.90? Does not compute. This is the Facebook IPO of the HSX. {nm} tatoufan Jul 22, 16:45

do you understand what the float is? it is huge with AVNGR2... ndmaster Jul 22, 21:18

you are off: numbers inside islander Jul 21, 19:17

*sigh* i was off 20,000 on the commission, but it still holds mostly {nm} islander Jul 21, 19:18

No need to "sigh"... I was asking for the correct way to calculate and you helped. thx! {nm} dioneta Jul 21, 19:32

Opening weekend adjust could possibly go to 540+ depending on opening date, and a big post-adjust short... {nm} slappydavid Jul 21, 19:27

Still only 0.1% dROI. But the market may move quicker - it's already outperformed that {nm} Rednax Jul 22, 01:14

I asked the same question about SPID4. Basically the answer was that multi-billionaires have more money than they know what to do with. elchan Jul 22, 09:55

Oops, I meant SPID5. {nm} elchan Jul 22, 09:56

AVNG2 is 3 years away. The Marvel 2014 slots are already filled. {nm} Antibody Jul 23, 10:07

wow, 3 mill in the red. everyone selling up betting on the Bat I think {nm} swordfish1 Jul 21, 10:16

Selling up? {nm} jtempkin Jul 21, 12:08

same as buying down... :) {nm} Oleg Max Jul 21, 12:13

both and its killing my port lol. i've been playing for so long why am I not shocked anymore? {nm} swordfish1 Jul 21, 12:46

Down 5 Mil - killing my port too! {nm} pen75 Jul 21, 13:01

beat you. 6.6 mill down. cant do anything {nm} swordfish1 Jul 21, 14:35

Well, good to know I'm not the only one, at least. {nm} JohnTEQP Jul 21, 17:50

When does the new day start? ashmanofdoom Jul 20, 14:55

At the end of the old one. ;) PVL Admin Jul 20, 15:03

Gracias! (and existential-y) {nm} ashmanofdoom Jul 20, 15:07

Everything here is on Pacific Time. {nm} elchan Jul 20, 16:10

12am (midnight) PST (Pacific Standard Time ~ Los Angeles) {nm} RazorHawk Jul 20, 16:55

PDT {nm} Buy BONDS 19 coming 7/24/12 Jul 21, 09:45

It seems the .OW with their lower investment hit the adjust levels faster than the basic stock? Fredjet Jul 19, 22:57

As do calls & puts {nm} Rednax Jul 19, 23:36

depends on the stock... baronblacksheep Jul 20, 03:56

yeah... jaymel Jul 19, 20:30

Mazel tov! :) {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Jul 19, 21:05

That's great, keep it up! {nm} PVL Admin Jul 19, 22:33

It's 11pm for me and 2/3rds of my port is invested in one flick...gonna be an interesting weekend. {nm} CommonAnomaly Jul 19, 19:54

I hope it's invested the "right" way! lol {nm} Flash Jul 20, 07:26

You can thank Aurora... Pootytron Jul 20, 12:12

AFRAM Fund Update: Week 22 (7/19/12) - The HSX Dude AFRAM-The African American Fund Jul 19, 11:38

Hmmm I thought that MFREE was in BATM3 or was that just too obvious. {nm} Buy BONDS 19 coming 7/24/12 Jul 19, 15:55

the amount that the price has changed today.... was obvious ...wasnt it? {nm} AFRAM-The African American Fund Jul 19, 16:12

The Avengers 520m Blockbuster Warrant [AVNGR.BW] is a guaranteed moneymaker Fatherbeast Jul 18, 17:36

To put it succinctly....once again....AVNGR.BW is ARB. {nm} Buy StarBond Fund 19 coming 7/24 Jul 18, 19:33

AVNGR.BW was ARB at IPO {nm} JohnTEQP Jul 18, 21:34

The point of this exercise is that many of the .BW securities never catch up to box office sales. Once in a while the current Buy BONDS 19 coming 7/24/12 Jul 19, 10:43

I calculate 2.30% dROI, which is nothing to sneeze at. If I had the extra cash I would get it. elchan Jul 18, 20:12

Can someone explain West of Memphis to me Zoggie Jul 18, 13:23

Because more people bought/covered after reset than sold/shorted. The current holding #s reflect what have been bought/sold since IPO, but Paul2k Jul 18, 13:26

It is moving today because of the volume today alfpaulytd2012 Jul 18, 13:28

So the idea being that whatever sells on the IPO day will determine what that four dollars is worth? Zoggie Jul 18, 13:46

you are confusing yourself... sorry. Oleg Max Jul 18, 14:10

No, the price of the IPO on IPO day is set, no matter how many share are being offered as the "float" or whatever the term is. Paul2k Jul 18, 14:10

Thank you. I'm getting my bearings now :) {nm} Zoggie Jul 18, 14:15

For a player still getting his/her bearings, you're doing a grand job of contributing on the boards. Keep up the good work! {nm} Paul2k Jul 18, 14:23

Yes, it's Arkansas. ndmaster Jul 19, 22:22

Commission Free trade days razor25 Jul 18, 11:04

Nope, they joined the Dodo's a few years back. {nm} DTravel Jul 18, 11:38

The Dark Knight Rises' Could Be About To Smash 'The Avengers' Box-Office Record Theodore_q Jul 18, 03:40

it means BATM3.CA looks like a good bet. {nm} Theodore_q Jul 18, 03:41

It was a good bet from IPO. {nm} elchan Jul 18, 16:19

Avengers made $30 from me Opening Weekend, Dark Knight Rises will only get $12. Adjust as you see fit. {nm} CommonAnomaly Jul 18, 08:55

For those waiting for it, AWARD has made its initial investments. This is probably the lowest the price will be. {nm} AwardsFund Jul 18, 01:07

Thanks...Have fun storming the castle. {nm} Buy BONDS 19 coming soon Jul 18, 06:31

Nice reference, Mr. Binns. Took me a second to get it JohnTEQP Jul 18, 21:46

No, Billy Crystal doesn't qualify for AWARD, and doesn't get a special exemption. accountant_4_Jesus Jul 19, 21:04

I write a message in the message block and it comes out NM Mayhew Jul 17, 19:03

Ah. sorry didn't realize you were having that problem. I believe it's an issue if you're using IE 9 on a portable device or somesuch? {nm} Paul2k Jul 17, 19:11

TAG adjustments {nm} Mayhew Jul 17, 19:00

TAG {nm} Mayhew Jul 17, 17:52

You're it. I never understand the people who screw up posts like this, and then don't follow up by correcting themselves or apologizing. {nm} Paul2k Jul 17, 18:39

H$10.45mil in 10 weeks (made 900k from today's adjusts) :) {nm} Rednax Jul 17, 11:31

Woo hoo! {nm} elchan Jul 17, 13:29

well done ... Ttaaggggeerr Jul 17, 14:19

I played for a few months a long time ago... Rednax Jul 18, 02:46

Congrats...a good goal is to gain about 1% of your port's value every day, the bigger your port gets though, the harder this will be... {nm} Flash Jul 17, 14:56

You can say that, I think I've averaged about 25% since hitting 1B, though I've made over 30M in about 10 days. {nm} LanceStorm22 Jul 17, 18:03

If you've averaged 25% a day growth, with a $1B port, that's excellent... Flash Jul 18, 08:30

To date I've managed to average over +2% per day (though increases are mostly on adjust & delist days) Rednax Jul 18, 02:35

Congrats...the 1% mark is just a good number to work at...many people do better. {nm} Flash Jul 18, 08:31

My overall average to date is actually +2.4%, and it's got higher as my port has grown :) {nm} Rednax Jul 18, 11:51

Kudos! You'll find it gets harder to maintain that when your port gets $50M+ ... if you keep that up, you'll be there soon! :-) {nm} Flash Jul 18, 14:02

Also number 13 in week-to-date leaderboard today :) {nm} Rednax Jul 18, 02:36

Man, that ALVH delist was nice. {nm} Jane_Citizen Jul 16, 17:42

I lost a little on it, not the end of the world. {nm} ernbc Jul 16, 20:11

Sounds like you shorted at the peak, congrats! {nm} elchan Jul 16, 20:16

heh, thanks. {nm} Jane_Citizen Jul 17, 16:00

What did you do, Jane, short it at H$120 and keep reshorting on the way down? {nm} JohnTEQP Jul 16, 21:45

shorted it at $118, and didn't touch it Jane_Citizen Jul 17, 16:03

Nicely done! {nm} JohnTEQP Jul 17, 22:42

I'm showing off unnecessarily. Smug HSXer :) {nm} Jane_Citizen Jul 19, 00:34

ETHOM adjust was even better - +30.99% for me :) {nm} Rednax Jul 18, 02:39

Getting To Know Your HSX Superhero Stocks #1: Marvel And DC (A Short History) - The HSX Dude RazorHawk Jul 16, 06:57

Thanks, not a comics fan myself, so those articles should really be helpful... {nm} slappydavid Jul 16, 16:59

Had a lot of fund with this when AVNGR came out JohnTEQP Jul 16, 21:44

Can any kind soul tell me what is the whole box office *2.8 about? {nm} Frankmiller92 Jul 16, 00:08

The central part of HSX is that wide release movies {nm} Buy BONDS 19 coming soon Jul 16, 05:25
