Why are star bonds capped at 250 mil per movie?

Posted by: taranev on Aug 11, 02:51

If you buy a movie stock that cashes out at 250 mil or higher you get what it was worth at that time. But if you had a star bond in the same movie you can't do better than the 250. I don't see why there's a difference. Just because someone is in a blockbuster the stock gets penalized with a cap. Anyone know the reasoning behind this? Thx.

because in the case of an actor going from a 500M film to a 1M indie, the price swing would be massive. starbonds are already big easy money islander Aug 11, 05:15

I really think it's time to bump it up to 300M, considering almost every year sees at least one 300M movie now. {nm} LanceStorm22 Aug 11, 07:14

This October marks the 10th anniversary of the current StarBond system, instituted at the worst of times for HSX's parent company. In that Buy BONDS 17 Now (EURO Too) Aug 11, 08:58
