Tuesday - August 2, 2022

Today's newsletter will take 1.80 minutes to read.

Good Morning! This is Mother Squeezer, the fun newsletter bringing you knowledge and insights about our favorite Activist Investor, Ryan Cohen, and our favorite stocks - GME and BBBY.

(Oxymoron of the week: Game Stop)

You're not confused, today is Tuesday

Monday, Monday...what an eventful day we had yesterday. We saw some excitement around both GameStop and Bed, Bath and Beyond. Regarding GameStop, over in Germany, traders have been reporting not seeing the amount of shares they were expecting after the split in their account. To add confusion to the mix, some were reporting that their brokers had marked long shares "short" and in some cases, removed shares from their accounts. Reports are still surfacing, so this may just be the beginning. Check your shares to ensure you were credited 3 more shares for every 1 you had prior to the split. If you find a discrepancy, you are encouraged to reach out to:

No matter how things continue to unfold, the confusion seems to be mounting (rest assured that in RC we trust so we're not concerned as to how things will eventually get worked out). We looked at the 8937 Form and it clearly states "...to be distributed as a stock dividend...". That sounds pretty clear to us. Grab your popcorn peanuts and let's see how this unfolds.

What do we think about the splivadend fuckery? It's too early to tell, but, if you are able to DRS your shares, do so. As for us, we're about 40% DRS'd, with the majority sitting in an IRA at Fidelity. It doesn't make us comfortable, but we don't see any other option at the moment without tax consequences. We're still researching to uncover a solution and will share if one becomes known.For DRS help, see: https://www.drsgme.org/.

BBBY had quite a run on Monday, climbing almost 15% and closing the day at its high of $5.77. This was done on strong volume of 11.4 million shares, eclipsing the average volume of 8.6 million shares.

What was behind Mondays climb in BBBY? Some think it was FTDs getting delivered. Others think since the price had been beaten down so much of late that it's just a natural rebound. What do we think? We're not sure but since it was trading down in pre market hours, it could have been fails finally getting delivered. That sure was a lot of volume! We're excited to see what today brings.

We wanted to share one of our favorite content creators, Richard Newton. If you aren't subscribed to his videos, head over to Youtube and give him a watch. Richard puts out videos almost every day and we just love his matter of fact - no hype - but genuinely excited style. He's learning and sharing along the way!

We hope BBBY and GME continue to climb after positive Monday sessions. To add to today's excitement, GameStop is now trending on Twitter:

We love Ryan Cohen and think he's the greatest Activist Investor of our generation. We are passionate followers of his moves and words and would love for others to know more about this great leader. We feel strongly that life is all about learning who to follow. If you have someone that needs more RC in their life, share Mother Squeezer with them!
