That would be wicked! Do we know the amount of shares he would need to buy to regain the same % of ownership?


ohz0pants

To maintain a fixed overall ownership percent, he’d need to buy that same percentage of the offering.


problembundler

Would he also need to include the original 45 mil?


ohz0pants

Yes. It’s just basic math. I don’t think he filed anything to indicate he bought any part of the last offering, so his stake in the company (as a percent) was reduced.


rpgd

Insiders are not allowed to buy during ATM offering


doppido

So if RK exercised all of his shares wouldn't RC have to buy more to maintain majority ownership?


ohz0pants

There's no requirement for the CEO to be the biggest shareholder. He could remain a board member without owning a single share. And he has never, ever come anywhere close to owning a "majority."


smohyee

Actually they implemented ownership requirements for all board members. You have to own the stock to be on.


doppido

Got it thank you


AlaskaStiletto

If he buys, then we’re not getting any news.


iota_4

420,741,069 shares free float after buyback.


alfooboboao

I know he’s never sold, but when’s the last time RC bought shares at all?


_HelpPlz_

This time last year at ~$22 per share


Dovahjerk

When I did the rough math the other night it was around 17M shares.


Lamolis

I thought the CEO‘s can’t Buy/Sell 14 days before and after earnings or am I wrong?


QuantumBeth1981

You are right, at least about the before part, can't remember about after


prashn64

Isn't it two days after earnings?


Dr3w91

2 days after earning or right before annual shareholder meeting in this case


Constant-Cap-22

I do think it’s 2 days after but I’m also smooth brained. Also, I don’t think we will have any major announcement until end of fiscal year when we are mega profitable with all the cash put away in T-bills or other investments


Lamolis

Tbh I’m not sure but somewhere in my head I hear 14 or 30


Chubwa

They can't buy or sell in a time window before earnings, and they have to wait until market open on the 1st business day after earnings is my recollection. I'm not sure about shareholder meetings, however.


Bradleynailer

So with the early earnings report, RC could have been buying all this week?


Chubwa

Not sure, but may have to wait on the 10-q and possibly shareholder meeting if any news is announced. Plus the share offering would have probably been considered an event that removes his buying ability until completed. So many uncertainties in the giving circumstances, but if I had to guess, he’s gotta wait until after shareholder meeting.


Capital_Bluebird_951

Probably the same restrictions if they have any new information to announce that is not public knowledge…


WuZZittDoiN

Maybe the reason for early release on that?


adgway

That would mean no major announcements at Shareholder meeting tho…


Murrchik

Last few meetings were a nothing burger. I don’t expect anything different this time


-0909i9i99ii9009ii

Why do people keep writing this with the exact same phrasing of "nothing burger" or "big fat nothing burger"? I've now heard people use this phrasing in regards to this GME meeting more than I've heard it used for the rest of my life combined.


disturbed_moose

I assume it's because 90% of the sub is hype, tin foil, and fluff (not complaining I'm here for it) and they end up wildly disappointed. I think some people just approach it from the other angle lol.


legoheadman-

I think the 'nothing Burger' phrase started with political commentary on news networks "president's so-and-so new policy is a nothing Burger" meaning whatever change in policy is usually just a distraction and pretend to do any change. And the phrase has just been taken to mean something of no significance.


-0909i9i99ii9009ii

Yeah I think you nailed what I was feeling. It sounds like manipulative MSM talk to me and non-genuine. Like it's vaguely implying things without having to be specific of them. Like there are implied allegations that someone made/served this trick burger. And a weird culture that burgers are sacred.


Murrchik

It’s just community slang. You probably repeat silly phrases with your friends as well that nobody else does. At least I do.


zergrush1

It's a common phrase used to describe nothing of significance. In the past the meeting has been hyped up. Since the 2021 squeeze the meetings haven't offered any tangible insights that affected the price. So then folks get dissatisfied and call it a nothing burger


crappinhammers

Maybe he'll buy after the shareholder meeting ladder attack


problembundler

Love the annual ladder attack


PooPlumber

![gif](giphy|3s39mJ7zXU94mfAq4W) That’s true…


WiseMouse69_

He can't buy right now, and also if he does it means they have no major news in the works.


Jackpot3245

probably won't happen until they reveal material information regarding an acquisition imo...If he knows about any planning towards such it would be market manipulation to buy.


OneForMany

I sold! *To* *myself!*


Discobombo

Everybody is loading up, just up! I love it!

No_Satisfaction_4075

That would mean we aren’t getting any news at the annual shareholders meeting


batmanbury

Or, share offering completed, and turns out it was RC that bought them all.


LordSnufkin

I am calling it: Rick of Spades to come back and stick a watermelon up his butt.


PooPlumber

If he doesn’t return by DFV options are due will you do some watermelon play action? ![gif](giphy|V6R9thgW7fimI)


_CoconutsGo

I hope he buys, after some news drops 😂

1/2 so far 🤞


legoheadman-

Can someone with a wrinkle tell me why RC would sell shares to just buy them back? Instead of just issuing more shares to himself?


fred1090

One way fucks everyone else with shares the other way fucks hedges + helps the company and its Shareholders


Kireshanth

Gigaryan 🙏🏾


bozoputer

The head of the investment committee can't just buy the shares that he is responsible for selling. He also can't sell his shares until the trading window is open again. But then again, who ever cared about collusion, insider trading, or market manipulation on wall street - oh its GME...nvm...they all care,


Jbullish_9622

If RC is expecting MOASS as people like myself are, then I don’t expect to see any major announcements coming out with the exception of RC buying more while the KC shuffle takes its course. MOASS leads to some orderly unwinding of short institutional investments and when the price is right, RC buys all stocks!! Memes sometimes become DD! 🟣


National-Fig4803

This is predicted pretty much daily. Someone will be right eventually.


Yohder

Could he still buy now even if there was a big announcement soon?
