CelebStock and StarBonds

As much as I am a proponent of StarBonds, and am about to end my 21st iteration of the fund, I suggest you build up to at least 20M before

you dip your toe in the water.  MovieStocks are the core of the site.  Get used to the ups and downs of Movies.

 

Having said that, there are sites such as KaiGee which can give you a little insight about upcoming StarBond adjusts.

The "star power" of a performer is based upon "What have you done lately" so only the last five movies count.  So if a big movie drops out and smaller box office movie moves in, the value goes down.  If a smaller movie drops out of the number 5 slot, and a big movie delists, the value goes up.  This value is called the TAG and the calculation rules are in the FAQ. 

Try a couple and see if you can match the current TAG on the detail page of any star.   It will help you get a feel for the calculation.

The calendar shows the adjusting bonds for next Tuesday.  Try to take out the 5th oldest and replace with the new movied delisting.  Compare your results to reality on Tuesday.

For the record, the 2 best investments this week are currently NWATT abd NIQUE.  I cannot tell you wheter to buy or short, on this page.   See if you can figure it out before you consult KaiGee.

Best advice is to make an investment on Monday and get out on Tuesday.  The problem is that you do not have a lot of cash to invest. 

Do not be afraid to ask specific questions here.  There are Veterans who will help you.

Some noob questions, using Anna Kendrick (AKEND) as an example. PlayItAgainSam Dec 03, 08:23

AKEND has been very busy with 3 adjusts in the last month and 5 in the last six months. DTravel Dec 03, 09:30

Star Bonds adjust when the movie they are attached to delists. As Dtravel said - read the FAQs, GLossary and Help Topics (bottom of page) {nm} JDolphin Dec 03, 11:15

For all the in and outs and everything else about Star BOnd Adjusts and calculating them read these 3 blog posts from RogerMore JDolphin Dec 03, 11:30

Can you check my math? I thought I understood the calculation but it's not adding up. PlayItAgainSam Dec 03, 13:34

There is a 250 cap on box offfice gross used. One of the blog posts I mentioned above has alot of the exceptions discussed {nm} JDolphin Dec 03, 14:43

Your Jealousy is quite Understandable. {nm} Captain Obvious Dec 04, 21:39

It doesn't say that anywhere. How am I or any new player supposed to assume that? {nm} KaiGee Dec 04, 21:48

Try to Keep up. It Says it Right in #8 that they Delist CashOut MONDAY (Tomorrow). Final Box Office is KNOWN. {nm} Captain Obvious Dec 04, 21:53

Anybody who does their Own Calculations will find that they MATCH the Calculations in #8 EXACTLY. {nm} Captain Obvious Dec 04, 21:55

If you had been Paying Attention, you would have Spotted 'Do this EVERY Week. It's GUARANTEED RISK-FREE'. {nm} Captain Obvious Dec 04, 21:57

It reads to me like, acquire MST on Monday that will delist at 0. I'm not new, and I misinterpreted it. Captain Obvious Dec 04, 22:10

Please Stop Cyber-Stalking the ROTO which is what you have been doing ALL Night on Multiple Forums. {nm} RotoHockey2013MainPort Dec 04, 22:22
