A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME

BY: AVI HARKISHUN @AVIHARKISHUNSLIDE 2 OF 16

DISCLAIMER• I AM AN AMC THEATER ($AMC) & GAMESTOP ($GME) SHAREHOLDER, THOUGH MY LARGEST POSITION IS IN AMC.

• I AM A FINANCIAL ADVISOR. ANYTHING I SAY HERE IS NOT AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN AS FINANCIAL ADVICE. THIS

PRESENTATION IS A GENERAL COMMUNICATION BEING PROVIDED FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. IT IS EDUCATIONAL IN

NATURE AND NOT DESIGNED TO BE A RECOMMENDATION FOR ANY SPECIFIC INVESTMENT PRODUCT, STRATEGY, PLAN FEATURE

OR OTHER PURPOSES. THIS IS JUST FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES BASED SOLELY ON MY OPINION AND PROFESSIONAL

OBSERVATIONS.

• THE INVESTMENTS MENTIONED IN THIS PRESENTATION MAY NOT BE SUITABLE FOR ALL INVESTORS. IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBTS

AS TO THE MERITS OF AN INVESTMENT, YOU SHOULD SEEK ADVICE FROM AN INDEPENDENT FINANCIAL ADVISOR.

• INVESTORS SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND RISKS OF EVERY INVESTMENT. PRIOR TO MAKING

ANY INVESTMENT OR FINANCIAL DECISIONS, AN INVESTOR SHOULD SEEK INDIVIDUALIZED ADVICE FROM PERSONAL FINANCIAL,

LEGAL, TAX AND OTHER PROFESSIONALS THAT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT ALL OF THE PARTICULAR FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES OF

AN INVESTOR'S OWN SITUATION.

• PAST PERFORMANCE OF AN INVESTMENT DOES NOT GUARANTEE FUTURE RESULTS.


MY OBSERVATION

• I’VE SPENT MONTHS OBSERVING AND READING LOTS OF RESEARCH PUT TOGETHER BY

SOME REALLY SMART RETAIL INVESTORS (APES) IN THE AMC & GAMESTOP COMMUNITY.

• I HAVE MOSTLY RESEARCHED AMC’S PRICE ACTION, CHARTS, OPTION ACTIVITIES, ETC. TO

CONCLUDE WHAT I’M NOTING HERE.

• IT IS POSSIBLE THAT SOME OF WHAT I’M SAYING IS CORRECT, MAYBE ALL OF IT IS, OR

PERHAPS NONE OF IT IS. TAKE IT WITH A GRAIN OF SALT AS WE USUSALLY SAY AND DO

YOUR OWN DUE DILIGENCE.


THE MANIPULATIVE STRATEGIES

RINSE & REPEAT

1. SHORTING

2. HEDGING WITH OPTIONS

3. DARKPOOL4.

MEDIA/SOCIAL MEDIA

5. COVERING

BY: AVI HARKISHUN @AVIHARKISHUN

SLIDE 5 OF 16

1. SHORTING

• THERE REALLY NEED NOT BE AN EXPLANATION OF WHAT SHORTING IS. MUCH RESEARCH WAS DONE TO PROVE THAT THERE ARE LOTS OF SYNTHETIC NAKED SHARES AVAILABLE THAT HAVE BEEN BOUGHT BY RETAIL INVESTORS. I DO BELIEVE THAT ALL OF AMC’S AND GME’S FLOAT CONSISTING OF REAL SHARES HAVE BEEN BOUGHT UP SOME TIME AGO.

• SHORTING THE STOCK BY BORROWING REAL OR SYNTHETIC SHARES THAT WAS ALREADY CREATED AND EVEN CREATING MORE SYNTHETIC SHARES FOR LADDER ATTACKS. BROKERAGES INCLUDING PRIME BROKERS & BANKS I BELIEVE ARE VERY MUCH AWARE OF WHAT’S GOING ON BECAUSE IT COULD NOT HAPPEN WITHOUT THEM IF YOU TRULY UNDERSTAND THE FINANCIAL MARKET.

• MARGIN/MONEY HAS TO INFLOW FROM BANKS, BORROWING SHARES HAS TO COME FROM BROKERS, CREATING SYNTHETIC SHARES ARE DONE BY PRIME BROKERS AND MARKET MAKERS. NONE OF THIS CAN BE ACCOMPLISHED WITHOUT ALL PARTIES BEING SOMEWHAT AWARE OF THE SITUATION & COLLUDING.


2. HEDGING WITH OPTIONS

• ONE OF THE BASICS OF INVESTING, ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE A HEDGE FUND OR LARGE

PORTFOLIO MANAGER IS HEDGING YOUR BETS, MOSTLY USING DERIVATIVES.

• I’VE READ THROUGH MUCH RESEARCH SHOWING DEEP IN THE MONEY CALLS AND ALSO FAR

OUT OF THE MONEY CALLS AS WELL, ESPECIALLY THE BULLISH UNUSUAL ACTIVITIES ONES;

WHICH I HAVE BEEN PAYING CLOSE ATTENTION TO AND NOTICED HOW THEY ARE USED TO

CREATE ILLUSIONS FOR THE STOCK’S DIRECTION AND LARGELY MISINTERPRETED BY INVESTORS.

HAVE YOU EVER NOTICED LARGE BULLISH UNUSUAL OPTION FLOW FOR AMC OR GME ONLY TO

THEN HAVE THE STOCK FALL OR MOVE IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION? – PRESCISELY WHAT I

MEAN. THE LARGE INFLOW OF MONEY BUYING THOSE CALLS ARE NOT IDIOTS. LOTS OF THEM

ARE HEDGING A SHORT BET THEY PLACED ON THE COMPANY RECENTLY OR PRIOR.

• CONTINUES IN NEXT SLIDE…


2. HEDGING WITH OPTIONS…

• A HEDGE FUND WILL DO THIS BECAUSE THE SHARES HAVE ALREADY BEEN BOUGHT AND HEDGED FOR – SECURITY FOR BUY & HOLD INVESTORS.

• IF THE BET GOES AGAINST THEM THEY GET TO COVER THEIR POSITIONS CHEAP WITHOUT CREATING A GAMA SQUEEZE.

DEEP IN THE MONEY CALLS

• THIS BET IS CHEAPER. THEY CAN AFFORD TO LOSE SOME PREMIUM IF THEIR SHORT BET PLAY OUT WELL.

• MAXIMUM PROFIT IF THE THEIR BEARISH BET TURNS BULLISH. THEY CAN COVER THEIR POSITION WHILE CAPTURING PROFIT ON THE UPSIDE.

OUT OF THE MONEY CALLS

• MARKET MAKERS & HEDGE FUNDS WILL WRITE/SELLS CALLS TO COLLECT SOME PREMIUM WHEN THEY PLAN TO SHORT THE STOCK & EXPECT THE PRICE TO DECLINE.

• THEY WILL ALSO BUY SOME PUTS TO CAPTURE ON THE DOWNSIDE & DEPENDS ON THE OUTCOME THEY CAN EITHER SELL THE PUTS OR EXERCISE THEM IF NEEDED. THEIR STRATEGIES ARE VERY COMPLEX FOR RETAIL TRADERS OF OUR CALIBER.

OTHERS: WRITE/SELL CALLS & BUY PUTS


3. DARKPOOL

• THERE ARE LOTS OF EXTENSIVE RESEARCH DONE ON DARKPOOL TRADING. I DO NOT WANT

TO BE REPETITIVE HERE. HOWEVER, AMC HAS CONSISTENTLY SEEN ABOVE 65% DARKPOOL

TRADING WHEREAS GME HAS SEEN OVER 55%. DARKPOOL + OTC TRADING IS ONE OF THE

MOST DETRIMENTAL STRATEGIES MARKET MAKERS AND HEDGE FUNDS USE TO CRIPPLE

AMC & GME PRICE ACTION. BY INTERNALIZING TRADES THEY WILL HAVE CONTROL ON

SEVERAL WAYS ON HOW, WHERE, AND WHEN THOSE TRADES ARE EXECUTED. PERHAPS

YOU’VE HEARD OF TRADES BEING DELAYED, WELL THAT HAPPENS WITH THE COLLUSION

OF BROKERS BEING INVOLVED. AS I SAID EARLIER, THERE IS A TRAIL OF GUILTY PARTIES.

HAVE YOU SEEN A BROKER WHO HAS YET TO COME OUT AND TRY TO DEFEND RETAIL

INVESTORS AND DO SOME RESEARCH ON WHAT’S REALLY GOING ON? – I DON’T THINK SO!

IT’S PROFIT OVER ETHICS IN THE CORPORATE WORLD.


3. DARKPOOL…

INTERNALIZE 65%+ BUY ORDERS

EXECUTE THEM THROUGH DARKPOOL + OTC + ATS TO NOT POSITIVELY AFFECT PRICE ACTION

BUY ORDERS

EXECUTE THEM ON THE LIT EXCHANGE (NYSE & NASDAQ)

THIS APPEARS TO GIVE THE ILLUSION OF MASSIVE SELLING PRESSURE CAUSING THE PRICE OF THE STOCK TO DROP

SELL ORDERS


4. MEDIA/SOCIAL MEDIA

• BY NOW MOST RETAIL INVESTORS (APES) HAVE CAUGHT ON TO MEDIA OUTLETS AND

PERSONNEL THAT ARE PAID TO WRITE AND PUBLISH NEGATIVE ARTICLES ON AMC &

GAMESTOP, WHETHER IT IS ON TV, FINANCIAL NEWS PAPERS OR “SHILLS” ON SOCIAL

MEDIA.

• THIS PRACTICE IS WIDELY KNOWN AS “STOCK BASHING” & “BEAR RAIDING.”

• THE PURPOSE IS TO CREATE PANIC SELLING IN ORDER TO DRIVE A STOCK PRICE DOWN

USING NEGATIVE ARTICLES TO CREATE NEGATIVE SENTIMENTS FOR SHORT SELLERS.

HOWEVER, MORE AND MORE RETAIL INVESTORS ARE CATCHING ON WITH THIS UNETHICAL

AND ILLEGAL PRACTICE.


5. COVERING

• BELIEVE IT OR NOT SHORT SELLERS HAVE BEEN SECRETLY COVERING IN SMALL AMOUNTS, BUT THEN RINSE

AND REPEAT THIS ENTIRE PROCESS.

• AMC SHORT INTEREST HAS INCREASED OVER THE PAST TO AROUND 20% WHILE GAMESTOP HAS STAYED A

BIT CONSTANT. YOU MAY HAVE NOTICED THIS BECAUSE I BELIEVE THEY ARE ATTEMPTING TO COVER SOME

SYNTHETIC SHARES, BUT WITH NEW RULES & REGULATIONS THEY HAVE TO NOW USE REAL SHARES TO SHORT

& CANNOT OPENLY CREATE SYNTHETIC SHARES LIKE THEY ONCE DID – I’M NOT SAYING THAT THEY ARE STILL

NOT FINDING WAYS TO DO THAT.

• WITH MUCH EXTENSIVE RESEARCH THAT HAS BEEN DONE BY OTHER SMART APES OUT THERE HOLDING AMC

& GAMESTOP, THE SHORT INTEREST IS PERHAPS SEVERAL TIMES THE STOCK’S FLOAT.

• I DO NOT BELIEVE THE SHORT INTEREST DATA REPORTED ON BROKERS & OTHER ENTITIES ARE CORRECT.

THESE DATA CAN BE MANIPULATED BY THE ENTITIES PROVIDING THEM FOR REPORTING.


THE SOLUTIONS• BUY & HOLD

• EXECUTE YOUR ORDERS ON A LIT

EXCHANGE

• NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE (NYSE)

• NASDAQ

• CHOOSE THE RIGHT BROKER + DO DIRECT

ROUTING. THE RECOMMENDED BROKERS

ARE:

• FIDELITY

• TD AMERITRADE

• SUPPORT THE BUSINESS – IMPROVED

FUNDAMENTALS INVALIDATES A SHORT

THESIS

• AMC :

• PURCHASE MOVIE TICKETS ALONG WITH

FOOD & BEVERAGES.

• CONSIDER BECOMING A STUB PREMIER

MEMBER & SIGN UP FOR INVESTOR

CONNECT.

• BECOME A PAID STUB MEMBERS – LOTS

OF BENEFITS HERE. IT PAYS FOR ITSELF.

• GAMESTOP:

• PURCHASE GAMES & OTHER ITEMS THAT

GAMESTOP SELLS IN STORE OR ONLINE.


NOTE: THE GOVERNMENT WILL HAVE TO INTERVINE TO DO WHAT WE CANNOT – CONGRESS, SEC, FINRA, & DTCC.

THE SOLUTIONS…

BUY & HOLD

BUYING & HOLDING WILL DECREASE THE AVAILABLE

SHARES THAT SHORT SELLERS NEED TO COVER.

IF A SHORT SELLER CANNOT LOCATE THE NUMBER OF

SHARES NEEDED TO COVER THEN THIS MAY CREATE A

SHORT SQUEEZE.

BROKERS & LIT EXCHANGE

ORDERS MUST BE SENT TO LIT EXCHANGE. IT IS BEST TO MAKE IT A HABIT TO SEND

YOUR ORDERS TO:

1. NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE (NYSE)

2. NASDAQ

CHOOSE A BROKER THAT GIVE YOU THE OPTION TO EXECUTE

ON A LIT EXCHANGE. RECOMMENDED BROKERS ARE:

1. FIDELITY

2. TD AMERITRADE

SUPPORT THE BUSINESS

AN IMPROVED FUNDAMENTAL IS THE BEST MEDICINE TO

INVALIDATE A SHORT THESIS.

AMC: GO WATCH MOVIES & BUY FOOD & BEVERAGES + BECOME A STUB MEMBER +

INVESTOR CONNECT

GAMESTOP: PURCHASE GAMES & OTHER ELECTRONIC ITEMS FROM THEIR STORES/ONLINE.

ADDITIONAL COMMENTS

• THOUGH THESE MIGHT BE SOME OF THE MAJOR MANIPULATIVE STRATEGIES, THAT DOES NOT MEAN THERE AREN’T MUCH MORE

COMPLEX STRATEGIES HERE AT PLAY. I’M SURE MUCH OF YOU HAVE READ A LOT OF OTHER THINGS HAPPENING WHICH CONTRIBUTE TO

THE MANIPULATION, SUCH AS PAYMENT FOR ORDER FLOW (PFOF), HIGH FREQUENCY TRADING, ALGORITHMIC TRADING, ETC. THERE IS A

WEB OF VERY COMPLEX MANIPULATIVE PRACTICES TAKING PLACE THAT IS EVEN BEYOND THE SCOPE OF MY UNDERSTANDING.

THANKFULLY THERE ARE SOME REALLY SMART APES OUT THERE THAT HAS BEEN DISCOVERING MUCH OF THESE MANIPULATIONS, WHICH

MAY BE LEGAL, BUT VERY UNETHICAL AND SHOULD BE MADE ILLEGAL.

• EVER WONDER WHY MORE MARGIN CALLS HAVEN’T HAPPEN YET FOR AMC OR GAMESTOP? OR PERHAPS THEY DID AND THE

REQUIREMENTS ARE BEING MET. OR PERHAPS YOU MAY WISH TO CHECK WITH THE LARGE BANKS THAT LOAN MONEY TO HEDGE FUNDS

THAT ARE ON THE HOOK TO LOSE BILLIONS IF MARGIN CALLS ARE SENT OUT AND SHORT SELLERS CANNOT MEET THE REQUIRMENTS.

• YOU ARE TRADING TIME HERE AT THE MOMENT. SHORT SELLERS WANT TO CLOSE THEIR POSITIONS SOON. IT’S COSTING THEM MONEY TO

HOLD IT. THEY NEED YOU TO SELL – THEY WANT THE REAL SHARES. IF YOU HAVE PATIENCE TO HOLD AND CONSIDER THESE SOLUTIONS,

ESPECIALLY BUYING ON LIT EXCHANGES YOU WILL BE SURPRISE HOW THINGS CHANGE. ALSO TURN OFF SHARE LENDING AND DO NOT

PURCHASE ON MARGIN – IF YOU DO YOUR BROKER CAN LEND OUT YOUR SHARES WITHOUT YOUR APPROVAL.

• STAY STRONG APES & PLEASE CONSIDER THESE SOLUTIONS. REMEMBER NOTHING SAID HERE IS FINANCIAL ADVICE.
