Question about star bonds that has been bothering me for a while...

Posted by: bennyg1985 on Jan 08, 14:04

Maybe I am just missing something obvious here, but when does a starbond adjust for the money that a movie in it's TAG makes between when it delists and when it actually leaves theatres?

Take Matthew Goode for example. His last five movies are (in order of oldest to newest):

The Imitation Game- Delisted at $51.62, final gross $91.12 mil

Self/Less- Delisted at $12.10, final gross $12.28 mil

Allied- Delisted at $38.53, final gross $40.01 mil

The Sense of an Ending- Delisted at $1.24, final gross $1.24

The Big Bad Fox- Delisted today at $0.03 mil

MTGOO's current TAG is $28.93, which can only be calculated by using the final grosses, not the delist gross.

When MTGOO adjusted for The Imitation Game, he would have adjusted using the $51.62 figure, but at some other point, the full gross was added to his TAG. When does that happen?

With awards season upon us, and movies making a lot of money after they have delisted, this seems like an important thing to know. I've always wondered when this extra money gets factored in.

Thank you in advance

hope I get this right...BO in HSX gets updated once a week (Monday I think?)...TAG gets updated each time a bond adjusts for a new delist {nm} tealfan Jan 08, 15:13

also, bond adjusts ususally happen the day after BO gets updated, so all good {nm} tealfan Jan 08, 15:29

What i’m asking about is the money a movie makes AFTER delist. TAGs somehow take that into account too {nm} bennyg1985 Jan 08, 19:43

that's what I was trying to say but failed to make clear =P {nm} tealfan Jan 08, 21:16

Look in the glossary under Trailing Average Gross. GruntNoNeck Jan 08, 20:31

Ah I looked in FAQs and Help Topics. My bad. Thank you very much {nm} bennyg1985 Jan 08, 20:57

TAGs get updated each week, not just at adjust. ndmaster Jan 08, 20:57

I’ll have to be more careful about shorting StarBonds on movies with legs. Thanks!! {nm} bennyg1985 Jan 08, 20:59

did not know it was every week...thanks! {nm} tealfan Jan 08, 21:17

OK...Here we go. TAGS are recalculated EVERY week based upon the box office of the attached movies (up to 5) ... Buy BONDS xXx Jan 09, 06:44
