Managing a fund is a nice way to take the next step in your hsx career... :)

Well I reach a major milestone, $100M. Might not last the night, but should be solidified tomorrow, when the weekend delists occur. {nm} elchan Aug 19, 20:40

Congratulations! ($3M, $100M and $1B are the only real $ milestones IMO) RogerMore Aug 19, 20:54

$-100M is a rather significant Milestone, IMHO. Very few have accomplished that. Harder than one thinks. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2012 Aug 20, 05:44

Sure - but it's like 10 billion. 99.99% of people don't achieve it. Those three are within reach of almost everyone, if they apply themself {nm} RogerMore Aug 20, 12:17

-$100M. Hmmm... might be a fun counter-intuitive game to try. ;-) {nm} rayw Aug 21, 07:15

That's a good rule. {nm} JohnTEQP Aug 20, 19:14

Well done! {nm} slappydavid Aug 19, 21:04

Very Well Done.I Hope You Will Cross More Milestones. :) Hsxman Aug 19, 21:28

pretty number!...congrats! {nm} tealfan Aug 19, 22:48

Very nice trading, fwiw I think you would do a great job managing a studio fund this fall, if you were interested. {nm} stevie1der328 Aug 20, 04:53

What studios are left? Can I still choose my own? {nm} elchan Aug 20, 05:58

Agreed! The new batch should come up in a month or so, it's a great time to apply... {nm} slappydavid Aug 20, 05:58

Thanks for the tip, I'll do some number crunching and see if I can pick a promising studio for the year. {nm} elchan Aug 20, 07:43

I've always thought Disney could do some damage in the right hands. It's returns over the past couple years have been disappointing. {nm} stevie1der328 (Foxxfund) Aug 21, 05:46

For research, I suggest looking at the various studios each fund can trade in, then use Advanced Search: Active Moviestocks: Distributor stevie1der328 (Foxxfund) Aug 21, 06:10

DISNX performance is VERY disappointing, I'm no one to criticize others' playing style, but with so many big movies slappydavid Aug 21, 06:59

Yeah, I asked Dmac for either Disney or Fox because I knew they were potential juggernauts. I wish you had gotten SUMMX as well. {nm} stevie1der328 Aug 21, 07:28

Maybe that was my mistake, I didn't ask for any studio in particular. At the time I was happy just to get a fund, any fund... :) {nm} slappydavid Aug 21, 07:52

Sounds like Disney is going to be a rough ride the next 3 years, see my post above. If I had a choice, I'd ask for Weinstein Co. {nm} elchan Aug 21, 07:54

Weinstein doesn't have that many releases. You'd be able to play DJANG... and that's probably about it for movies priced above $20. {nm} RogerMore Aug 21, 08:30

(looking at actual prices, this is incorrect - but I'd definitely prefer the fund that can invest in three or four summer tentpoles) {nm} RogerMore Aug 21, 08:35

I crunched some number in Excel using the distributor information and got the following. Hope it paste ok. {nm} elchan Aug 21, 07:37

Mazel tov! :) {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Aug 20, 07:53

Mazel tov! :) {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Aug 20, 07:53

Congrats! {nm} JohnTEQP Aug 20, 19:13
