What value is there in predicting the 12 week box office of a movie that’s already opened, and has grossed over $100M?
GLASS.BW IPOs today. The movie opened four weeks ago. Anyone with a spreadsheet and a comparative data set could figure out where its 12 week box office is likely to be.

One million shares? R U nuts? {nm} Feb 10, 08:05
If you could buy a million shares of RALP2.BW would you? {nm} Feb 10, 14:27
Raising the share ceiling favors those already doing very well. Plus... Feb 10, 13:18
What I really don't understand is that HSX wants the data to be as ACCURATE AS POSSIBLE. Feb 10, 14:28
For this to happen, I think you’d have to have something like daily trading limits. Feb 10, 15:39

Any "solution" would be to take the H$Billions out of the game, not to generate even more H$Billions. {nm} Feb 11, 09:17
Just take the last three zeros from all accounts with more than a billion dollars! {nm} Feb 11, 09:35

That you want to concentrate into fewer stocks is actually an arguments against raising the limit. Feb 13, 11:41
I'd rather have huge concentrated positons in a few stocks than spend a lifetime chasing nickels in a zillion stocks. Feb 13, 20:44
Personally I disagree with that. That takes away much of the challenge and need to think about what to do. {nm} Feb 14, 11:05
There is merit to that claim, although the stakes of being right/wrong are much higher. Feb 16, 11:10
Bring back the merchandise exchange -- still can't believe we didn't get the hat, mug, pen, etc. {nm} Feb 13, 09:08
