AMC, December 2024Close one, with the timing of the Debt for Equity at 5.66, GO plan, big box office movies and a peaking stock market, there's a bullish lotto play short term with at least a 100% returns. Up to the $9 - $13 range. Could last until January, but we all know AMC runs quickly, then falls as quick. The reason for that fall would likely be economic conditions getting worse and the market finally falling.
----
It is safe to assume that AMC will also feel the effect of a recession although it has proven in the past that it could care less (check out defunct symbol : AEN, October 2000).
----
Still it is wise to remain cautious and expect rejection near $11 and be ready to catch the dip. As AMC is poised to recover along with the movie business through 2025 - 2029.
----
If their mission is successful and AMC can survive through harsh months coming up, then this ticker will play a major role in a potential movie bubble that is brewing.
----
Nothing is guaranteed, there is always a lot of risks investing in non-profitable and debt ridden companies. Thankfully AMC has seen a slow but solid return to balance sheet cleanliness.
Less expenses, more streams of revenues and debt is being pushed out and actively paid.
There are probably more rounds of dilution coming up along the way, this is when you should have your cash ready. Because when the box-office numbers start popping up again and resume their pre COVID climb, AMC won't spend much more time down there.

AMC - Week of June 17, 2024Its been a while since I published anything. I have been working on getting better at my skills and TA, just to be honest.
Two years later and AMC looks attractive again. Why?... Well it derives from a bunch of degenerate cultist (like myself) who believe in the stock / company, the evolution of what we know as the theater industry, and same fractal patterns reoccurring. Oh yeah, and the correlation of GME and AMC being exact.
So I will approach this PROJECTION (because thats all this is & NOT FINANCIAL ADVICE!) as a sympathy play to GME. See GME analysis on the next post.
I begin doing a top down analysis. Here is the Monthly view on AMC. Currently price closed at 4.99 on June 14, 2024. lol Cant make this up!
I simply see a Dumb Money sequel - Hedgies Getting Wedgies -
Coming to an AMC theater near you.
When we squeeze I see it AMC going to 174 - 154 per share price before it is met with great resistance and pulls back. Here is where the real test comes, we will see if with enough force AMC breaks this wall of Hedgies. Shall it have a blow the top off moment, it needs to stay above 195 to get to All Time Highs!
I could be completely wrong and it goes to zero....

AMC just purchased a Gold Mining Company? truth really is stranger than fiction
AMC Entertainment's Stock Plummets 16% on Proposed Stock SaleAMC Entertainment ( NYSE:AMC ), the nation's largest theater chain, is facing turbulent times once again as its shares plummet over 16% in response to a proposed stock sale of up to $250 million. The company cites a soft first-quarter box office and increased cash burn as reasons behind the move, leaving investors concerned about the chain's financial stability.
The decision to raise capital through stock sales comes amid ongoing challenges for NYSE:AMC , exacerbated by last year's Hollywood strikes and subsequent cash flow disruptions. Despite a slight bounce in premarket trading, AMC's stock remains down significantly, highlighting investor skepticism about the company's ability to weather the storm.
The pandemic dealt a severe blow to AMC's financial health, pushing it to the brink of bankruptcy. While its meme stock status provided a temporary reprieve, the underlying debt burden and operational challenges persist. CEO Adam Aron has emphasized the importance of bolstering liquidity to navigate the uncertainties ahead, even as retail investors express concerns about dilution of their stake.
The company's recent fourth-quarter numbers offered a glimmer of hope, with improved performance attributed in part to successful film releases like Taylor Swift's The Eras Tour. However, Wall Street analysts remain cautious, citing AMC's significant financial leverage and the looming specter of potential balance sheet restructuring.
Moody's Investor Services has underscored the precarious nature of AMC's debt capital structure, warning of the possibility of further distressed exchanges or restructuring. As AMC charts its course forward, investors are left grappling with the uncertain future of the iconic movie theater chain in an ever-evolving entertainment landscape.
In the face of mounting challenges, AMC's resilience will be put to the test once again. Whether it can successfully navigate these turbulent waters and emerge stronger on the other side remains to be seen.
Stay tuned as NYSE:AMC Entertainment continues to navigate the highs and lows of the movie industry, with investors eagerly watching for signs of stability amidst the storm.
AMC Entertainment Holdings Options Ahead of EarningsIf you haven`t sold AMC before the APE units merger:
Then analyzing the options chain and the chart patterns of AMC Entertainment Holdings prior to the earnings report this week,
I would consider purchasing the 5usd strike price Puts with
an expiration date of 2024-6-21,
for a premium of approximately $1.44.
If these options prove to be profitable prior to the earnings release, I would sell at least half of them.
AMC Entertainment (NYSE: AMC) Stock: Buy or Sell? AMC shares are currently trading near their all-time low, despite the fact that the company's fundamentals are at their strongest since the onset of the pandemic.
AMC Is Trading at an All-Time Low
AMC Entertainment (AMC) - would be classified as a penny stock right now if it weren't for the 1-for-10 reverse stock split that the company implemented at the end of August. In fact, if it hadn't been for the reverse split, AMC — which trades for around $6 — would be worth 69 cents per share today.
AMC reached an all-time high of $551 per share in 2021 (adjusted for the reverse stock split). However, the stock has experienced a significant decline in value since August. This decline can be attributed to the substantial dilution that resulted from the conversion of preferred shares into common stock.
This downward trend contrasts with the sustained high share price levels that AMC enjoyed over the past two years, supported by its loyal retail shareholders, affectionately referred to as the "Apes."
The technical indicators reveal significant selling pressure on AMC shares in recent months. The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) reads 29, indicating oversold conditions. In such a situation, a reversal becomes more likely if a catalyst emerges to alleviate the selling pressure and propel the shares into a bullish trend.
AMC's Business Is in the Best Shape Since the Pandemic
Paradoxically, at the same time that AMC shares have sharply declined, the company has begun reporting its best financial results since 2019 — before the COVID pandemic.
For the third quarter, AMC disclosed record-breaking revenue and EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization), surpassing even pre-pandemic numbers. This success was attributed to the release of international blockbusters such as Barbie and Oppenheimer.
Despite a recorded 16% decrease in theater attendance compared to 2019, a remarkable 30% increase in per-patron spending significantly contributed to AMC's robust revenue results.
However, AMC still grapples with a substantial debt burden. The company's long-term debt stands at $4.75 billion, and its current ratio (total assets divided by total liabilities) is 0.46, raising some concerns.
The company's decision to raise equity to address this issue has been well-received. With the recent sale of $350 million worth of shares, AMC is poised to raise approximately $700 million this year. This infusion of capital will help strengthen its liquidity position, facilitate debt write-offs, and alleviate any short-term survival concerns.
Price Momentum
AMC is trading near the bottom of its 52-week range and below its 200-day simple moving average.
What does this mean?
Investors have been pushing the share price lower, and the stock still appears to have downward momentum. This is a neutral sign for the stock's future value.
AMC Entertainment Holdings Options Ahead of EarningsIf you haven`t bought AMC before the Gamma Squeeze:
or sold before the approved combining AMC shares & APE units:
Then analyzing the options chain and the chart patterns of AMC Entertainment Holdings prior to the earnings report this week,
I would consider purchasing the 10usd strike price in the money Calls with
an expiration date of 2023-11-10,
for a premium of approximately $1.17.
If these options prove to be profitable prior to the earnings release, I would sell at least half of them. I`m still bearish for the long run. Might end up in bankruptcy after all.
Looking forward to read your opinion about it.
$AMC back to $2.72$AMC looks like it's headed for another low. I could see the potential for AMC to rally up to the $8.30ish region, but if price rejects that range or just falls here, it increases the likelihood that AMC will fall from here back to the $2 range.
The bottom of the blue channel structure has already been tested multiple times and has weakened support. If it breaks the bottom of the channel price should decline quickly-- back to the $2.72 area.
Be careful if you're long.
AMC LONG TF M15, TP = 5.36On the M15 chart the trend started on July 28 (linear regression channel).
There is a high probability of profit taking. Possible take profit level is 5.36
But we should not forget about SL = 4.51
Using a trailing stop is also a good idea!
Please leave your feedback, your opinion. I am very interested in it. Thank you!
Good luck!

AMC 2023 ProjectionCycle signals being picked in November 2020. Expecting a parabolic arc set up, similar to GME before Jan 2021. Important that higher lows are established on the way up and ascending support trendline is respected. Targets are based on support, parallel, and volatility zones.. A ripple effect is possible if the volatility zone is crossed, this could send AMC to new ATHs.
AMC Shareholders approved combining AMC shares & APE units !Even though I was one of the first to signal you about the AMC potential to become the next GME Gamestop:
Today I want to share with you my Bearish Thesis:
In my opinion, there are factors that suggest AMC Entertainment Holdings (AMC) may experience a decline in share price following the APE (Additional Paid-in Capital) conversion. The approval of combining AMC common shares and APE units by an overwhelming majority of shareholders (87% in favor) indicates a significant increase in the capacity to issue additional common shares (88% in favor).
The increased capacity to issue common shares can potentially lead to dilution of existing shareholders' ownership. As more shares are issued, the existing shares represent a smaller portion of the overall ownership in the company. This dilution, coupled with the potential influx of additional shares in the market, can put downward pressure on the share price.
Furthermore, the approved combination of AMC common shares and APE units may result in increased selling pressure as some shareholders may choose to liquidate their positions. This increased supply of shares in the market can further contribute to downward price movement.
Considering these factors, my price target of $3.80 by fall reflects a bearish sentiment for AMC's stock. It is important to note that the price may even go lower due to the potential dilution and increased selling pressure resulting from the shareholder-approved measures.
Looking forward to read your opinion about it.

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS
Soon, AMC Entertainment expects to report a loss per share of 17 cents. This loss, of course, is much narrower than the 65 cents-per-share loss it posted in the first quarter of 2022.
The investor sentiment is that they hope to see a significant improvement to AMC's balance sheet in the first quarter, including a decrease in the company's debt.
But AMC investors should be aware of management's plan to convert APE units into common shares, which will likely continue to create volatility in AMC stock.
AMC Next Breakout $we had a good pump the last few days , now we inside a consolidation area between (5.50$/4.66$), once we break our current resistant at the 5.50$, we going to witness another pump towards the 6$ and the 6.70$.
on the other hand if we broke our support around the 4.66$, it's mean the short will drop the price to new low this year just above the 3.26$ first then to the bottom price for this year at the 1.26$.
AMC Tue $ Breakoutwe need to hold our current support above the 4.39$, in order to break from the resistant at the 5.35$, and once we do that, we going to have 2 profit taking , first around the 5.95$, then the 7$+.
we need to make the 3.82$ as a bottom for this year in order to confirm that we stopped selling;ling off, and starting to reverse .
AMC $ Breakout we had double bottom above the 3.82$, and now we broke from our ascending line. first sign of strength , now we need to break the resistant at 4.31$ to continue to go higher towards the 2 profit taking and squeeze area around the 5.37$.
if we got rejected at 4.31$, it's means we going towards the bottom price above the 3.33$.
