Best return in on opening weekends

Posted by: JohnTEQP on Dec 26, 21:41 in response to accountant_4_Jesus' post Need some advice re: MovieStocks...

You get the biggest DROI (daily return on investment) from playing opening weekends, because that is when MovieStocks adjust the most dramatically. Check out the release schedule several weeks in advance. There will almost always be at least a couple of stocks that are seriously overvalued. Look for anything on a downward trend. Study those very carefully. Lots of them are the victims of hype. Jack Black was a big star, so he was cast in [GULVR], but his star is fading quickly. So there was lots of hype, but the movie bombed. [TGRIT], on the other hand, was underappreciated. As recently as late last week, [MPRN3] was trading around H$130, which was ludicrously high, and that was after we started seeing BO numbers on after release. January is traditionally a dumping ground for movie studios - expect lots of bad movies in the next few weeks.
