Difference between a Deratice Call and Put? Smallville944 Jul 09, 17:19

real quick, the $40 call is a bet that the movie will make $40 mil. it's opening weekend, and the $40 put conversly bets it will make less {nm} jbinthehouse Jul 09, 20:13

read the Bruno call/put pages, they are clearly described there, with examples {nm} remrej Jul 10, 06:45

is there a way to list movie stocks by price instead of alphabetically {nm} steve Jul 07, 02:35

You can click on any of the column headings and your port will sort that way... Flash Jul 07, 08:30

thanks but i meant in "all movie stocks" {nm} steve Jul 07, 15:08

Seems like alot of warrants are arb does that have anything to do with little blue case with the + sigh beside? {nm} damenchipguy Jul 06, 19:04

The little blue suitcase with the plus sign means YOU are holding the stock long. A minus sign would mean a short holding. {nm} grammar Jul 06, 19:14

thanks am I getting the math wrong or BWUP, BWHOV, BWSTR arb by a big margin {nm} damenchipguy Jul 06, 19:57

Nope - they are arb by $47.16, $41.40 and $12.60. Traders have been holding likely since IPO'd so they won't move much until delist, grammar Jul 06, 22:01

delist = cashout {nm} grammar Jul 06, 22:06

thanks hard to understand why people with smaller ports would not take advantage of such a layup {nm} damenchipguy Jul 07, 10:04

Blockbuster Question mg_product82 Jul 05, 13:25

the warrants dont cash out until september 7th. the amount of money it makes over $300M (its strike price) is what it will cash out at. islander Jul 05, 13:54

If a stock delists at $0 and I have it shorted at $1, do I get $1 x # of shares? {nm} bigjohn333 Jul 05, 11:31

Anytime a stock delists at zero...you double your money...so if you shorted it at $1, you'll double your investment. Flash Jul 05, 11:35

How is a stock's value and movement determined? Where is the volume information? {nm} HuskyMiller Jul 04, 15:08

A stock's value is based on market forces...how many people buy it, short it, sell it, etc... Flash Jul 05, 11:48

So we're all here just guessing? {nm} HuskyMiller Jul 05, 21:51

ever heard of the wisdom of crowds? HSX generally does an excellent job of predicting BO {nm} ndmaster Jul 05, 22:50

It works just like the regular stock market - demand drives prices Flash Jul 06, 07:50

errr... some might also think the box office has something to do with it... :P {nm} kooties Jul 05, 22:39

yes, but only post-adjust. up until then, it is simply the players setting prices! {nm} ndmaster Jul 05, 22:50
