Context: quit my tech job 2 months ago because I wanted to bet on myself. Spent 6 years working for other people, and finally found the guts to go independent. Never sold anything on the internet, so I've been blown away by the reception.
TLDR: launched info product based on feedback from newsletter readers; generated $22K in last 4 weeks all organically. Most sales came directly from newsletter (~3600 readers at launch, now ~4600).
My first info product, Product Toolkit has generated $22K in sales over the last 4 weeks. This was 100% organic (newsletter + Twitter) and fairly under-optimized.
Sharing what I’ve learned about getting sales, growing newsletter, monetizing depth, pricing above comfort, avoiding anchors, and listening to the right customers:

85% sales came from newsletter

If I didn’t start writing 9 months ago, none of this would have happened. My newsletter began as personal therapy - processing the good, bad and ugly lessons from working at a multi-billion-dollar startup, but has since become a source of value for thousands.
Here's a thread with more stats on where sales came from.
Readers told me what they liked, and Product Toolkit emerged as an in-depth version of what they found most valuable.

UPDATE: Growing newsletter from 0 to 4000+

When the pandemic hit, I had no excuse to not start writing with my free time. I've always enjoyed writing as a medium for making sense of my own life, so I started a Substack newsletter.
I never posted on FB, rarely posted on LinkedIn, and didn't even have a Twitter account. Sharing online was foreign to me, so I wrote in private every week for about a month before I started sharing with friends. The reception was positive, so I then gained the confidence to share in online communities relevant to my topics (subreddits, FB groups). This got me first 1000 subscribers.
I had a few semi-viral articles that were cross-posted on Hacker News and Twitter. One article (about getting an IG offer) got me 600 subscribers. I became more active on Twitter, and whenever bigger accounts told people to follow me, I would get an additional burst of subscribers. I've also started cross-posting content on Medium which has its own built-in distribution. My #1 traffic source is now direct, people coming directly to my newsletter probably through word-of-mouth.
Biggest takeaway: growth starts slow, consistency is key. Love what you make, and it will not feel like a slog.

Monetize depth over breadth

People click on breadth, but pay for depth. Especially true for info products.
Free and abundant information is the norm. But specific information that solves problems for people is rare. It can and should be monetized. Why?
Many people are only interested in the TLDR, but still want to follow along. Some are serious about taking action, and want all the nitty-gritty details. It’s hard for any given piece of content to cater well to both groups.
A free newsletter + paid info product is one way of solving this dilemma.

Which wallet are you targeting?

Because I’m solving career headaches for people, there were two wallets at play: company learning budgets, and personal learning budgets.
People who work at companies with learning budgets are in the first group. To make it easier, I drafted a note for people to expense the product.
Willingness to pay for solutions to career headaches is high. Not only are careers a huge source of stress, but the ROI for shortcuts is massive.
Customer goodwill = value - price. Increasing value >> decreasing price You can add ~unlimited value, but have limited room to slash price. Best to focus on places where ROI ceiling is high Example: I focus on career shortcuts where there is massive ROI

Price slightly above comfort level

Expectations scale with price. My early supporters locked in a lower price and showered me with compliments. This felt nice, but it also limited my ability to improve the product.
Once I priced slightly above comfort level, people were far more likely to share candid feedback. They showed me the path to grow into a higher price point.
This strategy is more stressful, but crucial if you plan on making a more premium product.

Price is anchored by format

You could be offering the world’s most valuable information in a PDF, yet people will have a hard time paying more than $50. A video course or digital tool has a much higher ceiling.
Match your value to the right format.
Example: some customers judged my Notion format. It didn’t feel “high-production” enough for the price point. They were right. I’ve since moved the content into Podia. It's slicker, easier to navigate, and also gives information on completion rates.

Promoters vs. detractors

As you scale, you will draw promoters (love your product) and detractors (opposite).
Second group is the unavoidable price of growth. Better than getting apathy!
Finding patterns between the two groups will help you figure out your ideal positioning. What do your promoters all have in common? How are your detractors different from your promoters?
Example: my happiest customers are people who are new to product and work in relatively unstructured places. There are happy people who don't fit the profile, but the profile is the best predictor of happiness.
Your detractors will ask for a lot. Sometimes, they are simply not the right customer. Once you figure out your happy profile, you can identify which detractors to listen to. Those who are close to the profile are more likely to ask for things that make sense for you. Refund the ones that don’t, and reposition your product so this happens less often.

What’s next?

So far, growth has been 100% organic, and improvements have been 100% based on intuition and qualitative feedback.
Upcoming plans:• Be more data-driven: use tools like Google Analytics and Hotjar• Launch on Product Hunt• Experiment with paid ads• Help customers share what they’ve learned
What am I missing? Any tips on scaling info products?
Thanks for reading to the end! If you found this interesting, you can follow my journey on Twitter, and read more of my writing.

Hey everybody - I recently wrote a DD on Chewy and in the process I learned A TON. A little background on me:
I'm a veterinarian for the past 2 years, and have been in the vet industry since 2011. I've worked in a variety of clinics from ER to general practice. During my write up of Chewy, Zomedica was brought up sevaral times and I started to look up a bit more and wanted to write down my thoughts.
AS ALWAYS - PLEASE REMEMBER THAT IM LITERALLY AS GREEN AS THEY COME. DON'T MAKE BETS ON WHAT I SAY AND DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH. THE ONLY TIME I INVESTED ON MY OWN PRIOR TO THIS WAS IN GME AND I LOST EVERYTHING. So tear this post to shreds pls so I can learn more.
Summary of Zomedica:
Zomedica is a veterinary health company that is currently in the development phase of their products. Their focus is "point-of-care" devices - aka in house testing. This has been a growing field, as the use of point of care (from here on acronymed POC) has become more and more common in the veterinary field as the devices have gotten more and more affordable and easy to use.
Zomedica's current golden boy that they are hyping up hard is their Truforma device which I will go into extensive detail below. They recently (in the last quarter based on SEC documents I read) have promoted their CEO from interim to full time and from what I've seen, it seems like they have a decent team on their hands.
Truforma specifics and analysis:
Truforma is a POC device meant to deliver testing for thyroid and adrenal disease. Truforma uses "Bulk Acoustic Wave" (BAW) technology which they claim provide accurate and repeatable test results. THE RISKS OF THIS WILL BE LISTED BELOW IN THE RISKS SECTION.
Now here's where I hope my insight as a vet comes in - shits gonna get technical in here so buckle up and ask if anything doesnt make sense.

• Thyroid testing:

There are 2 main thyroid diseases - HYPOthyroidism (low thyroid) and HYPERthyroidism. And there are 2 main animals we care about these conditions for in a veterinary setting - cats and dogs. Luckily, HYPERthyroidism is very rare in dogs and HYPOthyroidism is very rare in cats. Where I think the hype really dies down is that NEITHER of these diseases are emergencies. 99% of the time, we DONT need a diagnosis the same day. Sending blood samples to test for either of these diseases get returned in typically 24 to 72 hours (often 24 hours). And the thing is - sending blood to the lab is nine times out of 10 cheaper than POC testing. So honestly, these thyroid tests in house aren't that big a deal. I am very confident that if their only offering was thyroid testing, that most clinics wouldn't purchase their product.
The only instance where I would like an in house TSH test (thyroid stimulating hormone) on a more POC basis is when I have a sick, skinny cat who looks like a HYPERthyroid cat. The most common way to diagnose a HYPERthyroid cat is with a Total T4 test which is widely available POC test now. But oftentimes, if they have multiple concurrent diseases that T4 level will be decreased due to something called "euthyroid sick syndrome". In those instances, you would want to do a TSH test and a free-T4 test , and while we can easily send out those tests to the lab I can imagine some people would want answers more quickly. But realistically - these cases are few and far between and there hasn't been enough demand to warrant a POC test for it.
So basically - thyroid testing w/ truforma alone isn't very hype and honestly not that exciting.

• Adrenal testing:

So this is where things could get interesting. The thyroid testing Truforma offers is ACTH stim testing. There are 2 thyroid conditions - Addison's disease (adrenal glands not working) and Cushing's diease (adrenal glands working too much).
Now with cushings - again, this isn't an emergency. The need for POC testing is fairly low because this is a chronic disease that has been going on for months - waiting an additional day doesn't change much. There are two ways to test for Cushings -
ACTH Stim testing - this is a 2 hour long test which you have to send to the lab. According to recent studies, this is considered by some specialists to be worse than the test listed below. HOWEVER - some specialists will still use this test because its a 2 hour test, and not an 8 hour test like the one listed below. So there is a use for Truforma regarding Cushings testing and ACTH stim - however it's not too exciting.
Low Dose Dexamethasone Suppression Testing - this is an 8 hour test and considered the gold standard test for diagnosing Cushings. However - people will still use the ACTH stim because of the time constraints with this test. I've had specialists tell me they use the ACTH stim solely because their schedule does not allow for the low dose dex test. Ultrasound (not widely used to diagnose cushings as the first step)
Now here's where the hype comes in -
Addison's disease is the only disease of the whole bunch that is an actual emergency. Addison's can quickly proceed into something called an "addisonian crisis". This is a very severe, deadly condition from untreated addison's disease. And the reason addison's goes untreated is because it shows very non specific, hard to diagnose signs. And here's the bitch - to diagnose addison's, we need to do an ACTH stim! And currently, we'll start treating addisons on suspicion and other bloodwork results but we still have to wait a whole freakin day for the results. And I've euthanized a shit ton of dogs who I've thought are addisonian, however owners couldn't commit to days in the hospital on a "maybe" alone. To treat an addisonian crisis, you typically need multiple days in the hospital and very specific drugs - but its VERY treatable. So when I have an owner come in with a sick ass pet, the convo goes like this -

• "Hey - you're dogs sick as shit. Bloodwork makes me think it's addison's disease. The test for it is pretty expensive, and it'll take at least 24 hours to get results. In the meantime - we need to hospitalize your dog, which is gonna cost you a couple grand. Also - if that test comes back negative in 24 hours, than we dont know whats wrong".

It's hard, especially when clients are financially constrained.
NOW the conversation can go:

• "Hey - you're dogs sick as shit. Bloodwork makes me think it's addison's disease. I can do the test in house.If it's positive than your has a good chance of survival." - So they do the test, it comes up positive, and BAM - they hospitalize and vets make bank.

In the first scenario, we might make a few hundred bucks and probably less than a grand. But in the second, if we convince owners to use the in house test and prove their dog has a very treatable disease, the likelihood of them dishing out big bucks to fix their dogs are WAY higher. Cause clients are way more likely to drop a shit ton of money if they think it's a fight they can win. But when there are so many questions left in the air, a lot of clients won't go into debt on a maybe (rightfully so). For this reason alone, I am slightly bullish on Truforma and ZOM.
Competitors and Risk:
Here's where I start to get bearish again. From the outside, it looks like ZOM may have a deep moat - new technology, only POC test for the conditions above, etc.

• As I said before, Truforma uses BAW technology -** but based on everything I've seen so far, it seems like they don't actually own the BAW technology.** Because of that, I don't see why their main competitors can't make a device on their own. Their main competitor in the POC field is Idexx - one of the top and biggest veterinary testing companies in america. Idexx has expanded to include not just testing, but absurd amounts of integrated software to the point that whole hospitals are run on Idexx products alone (medical recording software that integrates seamlessly w/ their lab services and their xrays and payment plans and eveyrthing else - its crazy). So if Idexx annouces ACTH testing in house, Zomedica is truly EFFED.
  
• Additionally, many labs will often have a degree of exclusivity contracts with hospitals - however this mainly deals w/ send out bloodwork and isn't really BLOCKING you from using other companies - just giving you way more incentives if you stick with idexx.
  
• Additionally - ZOM has not been profitable yet. They haven't really made any money yet and are very speculative. Looking at their recent 10-Q risk section says it all. They're still in development, and honestly they might not pan out. It's an incredibly risky buy and if Truforma goes to shit than ZOM is done for.
  
• Another competitor is the opportunity cost of losing shelf space in a vet hospital. Truforma has to compete with a very limited work area in most vet hospitals - I have a very big lab in my current hospital, and even there I struggle to see where I would fit ANOTHER device. It's starting to get cramped and this may play a factor in hospitals getting fatigued with ANOTHER machine they need to maintain and ANOTHER machine they have to order test kits for and ANOTHER machine they need to be trained on. It honestly gets exhausting and while it may sound dumb, it really may dissuade a lot of hospitals from jumping in.
  
• And lastly - this really isn't a device that'll be used in most hospitals to begin with. Think of rural america middle of nowhere vets who barely have POC machines - this is not gonna be the first one they buy. Even very busy metropolitan hospitals might not care for this if they see limited emergencies and are mainly GP. I've worked ER and urgent care for most of my career, so I see the use of the testing - but my gf is a GP vet and after talking to her, in the last few years she can only think of a handful of cases this would apply to.
  

Why I'm bullish and what my target is:
As I listed above, the use of ACTH POC testing in an ER setting cannot be understated. And there are quiet a few ER hospitals in America, and more and more are coming. Those ER hospitals typically have the best and newest swag - it's there that you see all the newest POC machines. I'm talking crap that even my hospital doesn't have (and we're an urgent care hospital obsessed w/ shiny new equipment). So I REALLY think that they will hop on board. Additionally, ZOM has a Truforma distribution w/ Miller Vet Supply which is a MASSIVE distributor of vet products. And what I really, REALLY hope happens is that the big boys like Idexx sees the moat and thinks - fuck it, why fill the moat when we can just buy the castle and buys Zomedica out for a fat chunk (or buys / partners w/ ZOM to sell the Truforma system for ACTH testing). THIS is the golden scenario where I think we can make big bank.
So yes - ZOM is an INCREDIBLY risky play. They haven't released their product yet, but it's coming out soon. We HAVE NOT seen how they are customer service wise, test accuracy wise, reliability wise, ease of use - nothing. And half their tests are honestly not that exciting. But if they can generate enough hype and demand to get their product noticed by the big boys and even bought out I think we can all make a ton of bank. And with the price being so low rn ( < $3 a share), it might just be the best time to jump in.
My position: 108 shares @ $2.31 (Don't laugh I'm broke). My target price is 10 bucks a share where I'll most likely cash out my doubly my original position.

I see a lot of fantastic DD and analysis being done in the various subs. If you don't know what is going on, there is a great timeline here. This is top level stuff and the essence of grass roots organizing and strategy. I have been looking through the posts to see if anyone has a plan on how to tackle this pause in making $GME pop. I have seen the various tactics offered and believe we do need to utilize multiple strategies but it also needs a catalyst which hasn't been seen yet to accelerate the squeeze. I will go through the current strategies I've read so far and propose the catalyst.
1 - Ask a Whale for Help - Institutional Investors (Financial)
This is not a strategy but begging by those paper hands who think this is over or are impatient/scared/FUD. There are bigger players who are invested already which can be seen in the 13G filings. https://fintel.io/so/us/gme These investors keep coming in and are purchasing large amounts of shares in the millions as recently as yesterday Feb 12th. They are not here to help us but see the same opportunity we do. This may also explain the bullish activity on Feb 10th and 12th as well as huge buy orders in the order list.
2 - Contact Your Congressman (Political)
This will need to be done for those who live in the U.S. There are a lot of investors like myself who don't live in the states so we need to rely on those folks who do live in the U.S. to speak for us as well. Don't just email them, explain what you want investigated. Use this great post for guidance as it covers where the issues are.
Big government has always sided with big money. I have not seen one example where this isn't the case. I believe the trial will be political theater and will be like other hearings where "mean" words are said to make the news highlights but ultimately, we don't see appropriate results. The little guy gets left holding the bag and the big guys get a slap on the wrist. If there is enough public push to your elected officials, they will at least change the story so that Reddit and DFV are not the fall guys which is what is needed to change to political narrative and flip the story to who is responsible!
3 - Make Some Noise (Cultural)
Hit other social platforms, keep people updated on what's going on and let them understand that this isn't a one time punch to Melvin/Point72 but it's still a battle and it's still going. There's a saying that culture eats strategy for breakfast. This is true and I've learned this the hard way many times. The culture drives the attitudes, minds and general sentiment in any of our feelings/thoughts towards a subject. Look up 5th generation warfare and you will see that this is all about culture, technology, and perceptions.
This noise will also create more articles in the news cycle that will show a different sentiment in our favor to the public majority who don't know what's going on. These big news outlets have already picked a side and have been trying to fabricate false news stories but as this goes on, we are seeing more articles on smaller platforms exposing what is happening on Wallstreet. I posted on one such article here.
4 - BUY THE DIPS (Tactical)
Yes this is a strategy... if you're a day trader trying to recoup your average purchase costs to reduce your average cost of ownership. I know this is also done in the long term as well but I'm trying to make a point. This will help close the gap in available shares but we also know there is some fuckery going on behind the scenes to slowly make gains through a variety of bullshit tactics and recoup the costs and game the system.
5 - SUE THEM (Legal)
There are some class action lawsuits which have been started up but I see two issues with this. It is focused on RobinHood which I'm almost certain is being set up as the patsy and if the legal case is won, means pennies on the dollars invested by retailers as well as lost dollars from the opportunity of a squeeze. This is just diamond dust when we wanted diamond hands.
6 - MOVING PLATFORMS (Technology)
A lot of people have moved off of RobinHood or changed their margin accounts to cash accounts. This is a good thing. For those who were on platforms which were restricted at any time during the squeeze, what do you think will happen if/when the squeeze occurs, I can bet that those same apps will prevent you from buying or selling when you need to. This sub has had many posts about people having issues with these platforms and this problem will not be solved due to the nature of who funds those businesses. You're the product, not the customer.
My suggestion is to move to a brokerage account. You go to your bank and request one, it takes 2-5 days on average. There is a fee per trade but let's be honest, you get what you pay for. While everyone complained of issues with buying or selling or having a margin account, my brokerage account had no issues whatsoever.
7 - HOLD, but only if you want... and figure out your exit strategy (Strategic Entry and Exit)
Some have sold. Some people are holding because they like the stonk. Some are people that want to be part of the movement. But I think we all want to make big gains and do it smartly and come out with diamond hands. Know what your exit point is because all those institutional investors have their exit plan and will make those $$ and then sell. Did you want to sell none or some or choose to exit at 2x, 5x, 10x??? I can't tell you what the stock will go to in the long run but at least think about it and make a plan and stick to it.
Providing the Catalyst - GME Day
What I propose is only for those who are still planning to buy. Do not buy if you can't afford to**.** I'm not asking for anyone to buy who is not planning on buying or can't afford to. If you are already tapped out, you've done your part and no one should judge you. If you sold, it's your $$ and no one should judge. This is only for those people who are still buying or planning on buying.
I'm looking at Feb 17th, 2021 (2021-02-17) as $GME Day. This would be a play for a $GME push. If you are planning on buying, why not do it the way the big guys do, pick a price and put in a limit buy order. This will hold the price at a certain spot and as the price goes up, move your limit buy up. If a bunch of people keep doing this, not only are you getting the stock that you planned on buying anyways but are setting new resistance points and focusing the volume to a single day. Volume was the biggest reason the squeeze wasn't squoze and if you're on RobinHood or some other apps that will limit your buying, I expect the same to happen when you go in to squeeze.
Why this day?

• It needs to be far enough out to get enough folks aware of this strategy as well as make noise about the setup.
• Do it before the congress hearing on Feb 18th to create some buzz and help positive sentiment for DFV.
• For those who are still moving platforms, it's enough time to get them setup.
• There are long call options and some interesting call options at $200 and up I posted here which expire on the 19th showing some promise for a nice setup.
• But... I'm open to selecting a different day.

Who am I?
Let me tell you a little bit about me. I'm a strategic business advisor but not in finance or stocks. The point of my job is to look at future indicators and figure out what my organizations next move is and also how to move the company internally in that direction and a plan on how to influence industry and government. It's one of those jobs of knowing the industry/politics/culture/trends as well as trying to figure out hype from reality and if someone is selling to me vs providing an opportunity.
I'm not an expert in any field but a generalist and have to be a bit of a jack of all trades. I'm also old enough to have developed a pretty decent bullshit detector. And let me tell you, there are a lot of bullshit articles and statements in Reddit and in mainstream media.
I also do have a modest amount of $GME and $AMC. I didn't include $AMC in this tactic as we have to be focused on the one and then can move to the other. I also believe $AMC is in a much better position due to the number of shares owned by retailers and the general direction towards it moving on its own.
I'm not a financial advisor but I am providing my opinion on a strategic path to avoid being a bagholder. Feel free to criticize and challenge.
**Edit 1** - Feb 17th-19th is also the day when the "failures to deliver" report comes out. Can be seen here.
​

“Spotify‘s paid subscribers hit 155M at the end of the last quarter of last year, up 24% year-on-year. This compares to the last-declared figure of 60M from Apple Music.
Total monthly active Spotify users, which include people on the free ad-funded tier, reached 345M, a year-on-year increase of 27% …
Spotify revealed the numbers in its earnings report for Q4 2020.
However, the WSJ notes that the company is still losing money – in large part because growing its subscriber base has only been achieved by a mix of extended free trials and low-cost introductory deals in developed markets, coupled with permanently low subscriptions in developing countries like India.

The company posted a loss of €125 million, or 66 European cents a share, compared with a loss of €209 million, or €1.14 a share, the year before. While Spotify has periodically reported a quarterly profit, executives have said it would continue to give priority to growth—attracting new subscribers and investing in podcasting […]
Average revenue per user for the subscription business fell 8% to €4.26, the equivalent of $5.13, from a year ago, as the company continued to attract new subscribers via discounted plans and charge lower prices in new markets such as India and Russia. In October, Spotify raised the price of its family plan in seven markets, a move the company said didn’t affect churn or customer intake. In February, it expanded price increases to another 25 markets, including in Europe, Latin America and Canada.
Revenue from subscriptions rose 15% from the year before, to €1.89 billion. Advertising revenue grew for a second consecutive quarter after sliding in the first half of the year amid pandemic headwinds, jumping 29% to €281 million. Advertising, historically less than 10% of Spotify’s top line, accounted for 13% of revenue. It has become a growth area as the company expands its podcast business.

Having more Spotify paid subscribers helps, as these are worth more than ad-funded ones, but the business model itself remains a tricky one. The vast majority of the subscriptions are paid to record labels, leaving only a slim margin for the service itself. Spotify made a big bet on diversification into podcasts last year, and has taken its first tentative steps into the audiobooks market. Both potentially offer ways to keep a higher proportion of revenue.
Apple has been notably quiet about its own subscriber numbers. Historically, the company has announced hitting milestones in 10M increments, so the fact that there has been no announcement since the 60M one back in 2019 suggests that it hasn’t yet hit 70M.
The great strength of Apple Music over Spotify as a business, however, is that the Cupertino company has no need to turn a profit. It can afford to use the service as simply one element in its Services portfolio and to help drive hardware sales for things like AirPods and HomePods.”

BB is king.
before anything, this is not financial advice, go fuck yourself you autists. I am a degenerate with a hypothesis. Now that that disclaimer is done
Man blackberry, who the hell thought I’d be investing in you after the fall of BBM and Brickbreaker. Well, strap in folks as I take you through one of the most bullish stories in stonk history, and it all starts with one statement. Everything you’re thinking about with Blackberry at the moment, is wrong.
It is not a phone company. It is not telling you to use BBM. It is a software, automotive, and cybersecurity company that is about to make a killing. Let’s begin:
BB stock price, 6.71 as of Close on 1-6-2021.
Technically, this thing is a fucking beauty. MACD flip, Stoch RSI cross, volume died on the sells and the thing is pushing up just the market died twice while it had solid momentum. This is going to move soon, but let's go away from crayons and into the magical land of make believe: news events, conferences, and fundamentals. It's not just two letters, it's a business. https://www.tradingview.com/x/uI3Cl51F/

FB settlement
I’m not going to go into deep detail here as it is quite intricate and all I know is that BB won a suit against fuckerberg $FB related to messaging, whatsapp, and something else. $FB has till January 15th, 2020 to settle, see here: https://www.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.cand.331602/gov.uscourts.cand.331602.144.0.pdf
This FB settlement is not included in earnings expectations, meaning THAT SHIT GOES UP or will be in analyst projections.

Want a TL;DR? Automotive, cloud, cybersecurity, IOT, electric vehicles, every bubble on the planet. And this shit got all of it. Want more info? https://blackberry.qnx.com/en/aws Read this and watch their conferences coming up.
Partnerships with big companies
Blackberry partnered with Zoom (link: https://blogs.blackberry.com/en/2020/10/blackberry-and-zoom-together-secure-your-virtual-enterprise-meetings), Microsoft Teams (link: https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/blackberry-athoc-integrates-with-microsoft-teams-for-critical-event-management-301147559.html) and some other company that I forgot. Cybersecurity adding onto big big platforms that exploded this past year. MORE MONEY you dumbasses.
Patents BB started offloading old patents but have one that will be important as of recent, with the sexiest one being this: https://uspto.report/patent/grant/10880812
Very pretty stuff, big sex.
Business Implications
BB makes their money from licensing, cybersecurity (one of the only companies that have not been hacked in this SolarWind shit), BB QNX is already in 175 MM cars worldwide, partnered with XPEV, and is in talks with multiple Tier 1 automakers, 20 different OEMs, and will be in vehicles by 2023. Does that mean anything now? Yes, you dumbass. Per CEO John Chen, my new president, #DidYouKnow @BlackBerry has been selected by 19 of the top 25 #ElectricVehicle manufacturers, and they represent 61% of the Electric Vehicle market?
Bubblicious and sexy. Expect some of the big tier 1s like Nissan, Toyota, BMW, and others to jump on this train. Think TSLA doesn’t have competition? Bitch they cant even make a billion dollars unless they sell stock (which since MS just upgraded their price, I bet they offer at least $5B in stock in the coming days).
CONFERENCES
BB is speaking at the following conferences:
Citi’s 2021 Global TMT West Virtual Conference - Thursday January 7th, 2021 at 1 PM with the Steve Rai, Blackberry CFO and John Wall, Co-Head of BlackBerry Technology Solutions (BTS)
JP Morgan 19th Annual Tech / Auto Forum Tuesday January 12th, 2021 at 5:45 PM ET with the Steve Rai, Blackberry CFO and John Wall, Co-Head of BlackBerry Technology Solutions (BTS) LINK: https://gentherm.gcs-web.com/events/event-details/19th-annual-jp-morgan-techauto-forum
Needham’s 23rd Annual Virtual Growth Conference Friday, January 15th, 2021 at 1:15 pm ET With Ryan Permeh, Blackberry Chief Security Architect & Co-founder of Cylance and Eric Cornelius, Blackberry Chief Product Architect
This was just announced and you bet your ass this will pump this stock up.
Conclusion:
This stock will generate a lot more cash in the coming years, will gain in the short term by offloading old patents, settling with FB and getting some moolah, growing in their partnership with Bezos gang, roll out to more EVs with Tier 1 and Tier 2 automotive companies, and compete with Tesla on this as well. This shit trades at $6.70 and is so close to going up if the market just doesn’t crash in the interim. They already are used by big companies for Access and other Mobile applications, so that someone can securely use their dinky iPhone to work. Think big whales aren’t interested? Look at 2022 2023 option OI.
I think this goes to lower PT of $10 by May, more likely $15. uThInKitWiLLdOUbleINmKTcAp???? Yes you fucking idiot, this is trading at 4X sales only, will be profitable this year, and has so much shit coming up. This is UNDER 4B!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just buy the stock and sit on it. Want options? Buy them too. Have fun guys, I hope you all make money.

Right so as always, the backstory:
I work at a fabric store. I've worked there for five years without any worthwhile entitled encounter. People are usually super chill. It's a really fun job because it's accessible to everyone. We have homeless people who need to repair their clothes and tents, rich people who spend their days quilting, college students who are going into fashion or textiles, burlesque dancers who are fundraising for the food bank, kids who are learning how to sew for the first time. Everyone comes in, and my job is to help them through whatever problem they have, in whatever budget they have.
This was about a month or two ago, excuse the mediocre dialogue.
So it's a normal day, a little slow. And this girl comes in. She looks college age and she hands me a pattern (Think clothing recipe) and asks me to help her make it. It's a skirt, so I size her, let her choose the fabric, grab the notions it requires. I'm pretty quick with this stuff. Her total comes to $30 ($25usd) which is a super normal cost (We get cutomers spending a couple hundred daily) She pulls out her card, pays and leaves.
Easy enough, I'm happy with it. But of course, all is not well. I start eating my lunch and blah blah whatever until this really angry lady storms in with the same kid from earlier. And I think "oh no"
Lady: Excuse me! Are you the stupid clerk who sold my kid this fabric?
Me: Yes. Is something wrong?
Lady: Obviously something is wrong! You are being unethical by letting my daughter spend $30. I can't believe they let you work here if you don't bother to explain the cost of things to children before allowing them to buy something. My daughter is only thirteen. And she told me you didn't tell her how much $30 is in the real world. I can't believe this. You should never sell things to people who are underage, it's unethical. My child was coerced into spending this money and that is illegal. I'd like to return this fabric right now!
Oh no
Me: I'm very sorry, but it's Federal law that we can't allow fabric to be returned, especially with Covid going on, it's just not safe. However I can offer store credit on the notions and pattern"
Lady: What the hell! That's absurd. What business doesn't allow refunds? (The answer being most independent businesses in my area) I can't believe the government is letting you abuse my child. Or letting children use a card without an adult present
Me: It's a very common thing around here. I'm sorry I didn't realize your kid was underage, but if they have a card, they are allowed to use it to buy things.
Lady: Hmmmph. Well it's obvious you're never going to be a good parent. You need to explain to children how much money is worth before they buy something. Children shouldn't be allowed to buy anything without an adult present.
Me, fucking annoyed: I'm 18, bet you overestimated my age too. Would you still yell at me if you knew I was underage?
I will admit, I was sassy, but I have been given free reign from my boss to yell at customers if they're being stupid, so it's fine, it's obvious she isn't going to buy anything
Lady: Ugggh, I never want to come back to this store. I'm so sorry 'Belle' now it looks like we'll have to wait until we go to [city an hour away] to buy more fabric. I refuse to support this place anymore.
And you can bet that pissed me off. Our competitor's are hardcore annoying. They will literally buy cheap overrun versions of the fabrics we sell and try to convince customers it's the same quality. I've dealt with too many people saying they could get the "exact" same thing $2 cheaper if they drove an hour both ways. And it is not fun. They're also a huge chain store that is trying to put a family owned shop out of business for no reason cause our customer base is literally an hour out of their way, but I digress.
Me: Mam, please leave.
Lady: I will! And on my way out I'm going to stand by your door and tell everyone what you did to my child. I'll have your job if I don't get you arrested first.
Spoiler: She never called the police, or told anyone about the story, at least that I heard of. I felt really bad for the kid, I mean, she seemed sweet. I'm really just annoyed that the entitled parent decided to make poor financial decisions on the kid's part my fault. I genuinely didn't know she was "so young" when I served her, but I mean, I usually get kids around that age who enjoy the hobby. A bunch have debit cards or cash of their own that they use. I have bent over backwards to help kids stay within their budget while still being able to enjoy the craft.
Also, I don't want to parent for others, but I new what money was when I was 13, I mean, I started working for my money at 14, but I still kinda understood the whole "This is finite" part. Or the "Don't steal from my mom part" and if I ever did take money from my mom. I'm the one who'd get yelled at, not the store clerk. Like what does that teach your kid except that it's not their fault, when it really is.

>In the lawsuite their is 2 defendants named; Philip Morris USA & Philip Morris International! So technically it'll be a 2 for 1 win! Double the judgement too if look at it that way.

>Jan. 29th update to lawsuite:Judge approved PM request for a extension to submit their answer saying by February 26th now:" So that both defendants can submit their answer at the same time"Court also said no jury trials untill April now. HCMC said in their initial motion that they demand there be a jury trial for settling judgements. So PM better offer a big enough settlement to avoid that.

/

-Rumors going around about the April deadline date. That is when jury trials can resume. Because courts have suspended all Jury Trials due to COVID-19 until April 18th. People been getting confused and people spreading false information on purpose. So as of right now the only date on the case is the February 28th due date of Philip Morris's answer.

Once that is submitted, wether it be a settlement or accepting what they have done or deny the motion against them of infringing on HCMC's patents, than they will schedule the next court date.

THINK ABOUT AFTER HCMC WINS THE LAWSUITE AGAINST PM.

THEY'LL ASK HCMC TO LICENSE OUT THE PATENTS THEY HAVE INFRINGED ON! THEIR IQOS PRODUCT HAS 14MILLION + USERS, SO I DOUB'T THEY WOULD WANT TO ABANDON THAT REVENUE STREAM! THEY HAVE DOZENS OF ACTIVE TRADEMARKS FOR THE IQOS PRODUCT, AND PAYING HCMC TO USE IT IS THEIR BEST CHOICE! YOU THINK HCMC GOING TO GIVE THEM A DEAL, LOL HECK NO. THE MONEY FROM THIS LAWSUITE IS GOING TO MAKE IT THE BIGGEST LAWSUITE IN THE #OTC ! AND I BEEN TRADING SINCE I WAS 15, AND IN 16YRS NEVER SEEN A STOCK SO CHEAP, PINK CURRENT+PENNYSTOCK EXEMPT, 60+ PATENTS AND ALREADY LICENSES OUT MANY OF THEM! I BET LOTS OF #VAPE PRODUCTS IN THE MARKET ARE FROM COMPANYS PAYING LICENSING RIGHTS FROM $HCMC!!!

read if you are interested its long just a warning near the end is a monster DD post i did that was reposted on the wall here that many people read
cheshirechocobo Monday, 12/28/20 11:12:53 AM Re: None 0 Post # 20121 of 30551 IMO people in the inner circle of HCMC know a little more about this than they are letting on but the volume and money is talking. Methinks the HCMC Lawyers are working overtime because if the case was falling through so would the volume... IMO
The big Lawsuit people are talking about is between HCMC vs Phillip Morris for those who are new here and are curious.
I think HCMC is on top of this very much because "intellectual property" is a main part of their platform and if someone else infringed on one of their patents that they conceive / design / develop they are in the position to take action against that.

HOLLYWOOD, FL, Dec. 14, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Healthier Choices Management Corp. (OTC Pink: HCMC) (“HCMC or the “Company”) announces that it has formed a new wholly owned subsidiary to hold, market and expand on its intellectual property assets. This subsidiary, HCMC Intellectual Property Holdings, LLC, will own all of the patents, trademarks and other intellectual property of HCMC.
HCMC currently owns a portfolio of patents related to both vape technology and also manufacturing processes and procedures for an imitation nicotine product. HCMC’s focus with this new subsidiary is to invest in innovation and encourage further development of core intellectual property.
“The creation of a separate intellectual property holding entity allows us to efficiently market, license and otherwise capitalize on our growing intellectual property portfolio,” said Jeff Holman, CEO of HCMC.
Mr. Holman concluded, “We feel that we can use HCMC Intellectual Property Holdings to further implement our strategic plan and better capture opportunities to monetize both technology that HCMC has already developed over the years, as well as technology that we will continue to develop into the future.”

If someone steals your intellectual property or develops something you already patented then you can then legally sue them...by doing this you can in theory make more money suing someone for copyright infringement on intellectual property than you can on the infringed product in question At that point you don't even have to develop the initial idea to make money.
AND THEN After the settlement from a victorious case...
You can then use the money from the lawsuit to develop your business / product. lololol (that makes me smile)
IMO as always but this is what I see

110 000 000 x.0001 = 11,000,000$ (seems like alot) BUT!!!!!
HCMC IS SUING Philip Morris OVER THE IQOS System
The IQOS heated tobacco units have become the third biggest tobacco brand behind Philip Morris' industry leading Marlboro and Imperial Brands' Winston. IQOS now has a 5.5% share of the global tobacco market, even though it hasn't been fully rolled out in a number of the 52 markets it's been introduced into.
Smoking alternatives heat up the market There are now 13.6 million users of the IQOS,(at 100$ per unit making 1 360 000 000 $)
that's 4 million more users than a year ago, and Philip Morris estimates 71% of them (around 10 million people) have stopped smoking and permanently switched to the device.
If Philip Morris are found guilty of patent infringement on every single sale of every single IQOS unit...
They have to cough up a massive chunk if not all of a 5.5 % share in the entire global tobacco market...of planet earth... over to HCMC.
A scenario like that would defiantly cover it...

Healthier Choices Management Corp. Files Patent Infringement Lawsuit Against Philip Morris
November 30, 2020 17:00 ET | Source: Healthier Choices Management Corp HOLLYWOOD, FL, Nov. 30, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Healthier Choices Management Corp announced the filing of its patent infringement lawsuit against Philip Morris USA, Inc. and Philip Morris Products S.A. in connection with their product known and marketed as “IQOS®.” The lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court For the Northern District Of Georgia.
HCMC vs Phillip Morris Lawsuit filing https://sec.report/Document/0000844856-20-000047/
The international law firm Cozen O’Connor has been engaged to represent HCMC in this matter.
https://www.cozen.com/
(MONSTERS ^ )
HCMC’s lawsuit includes claims that Phillip Morris is infringing HCMC’s patent rights in connection with IQOS®, an alternative tobacco product marketed and sold by Phillip Morris. Philip Morris claims that it is currently approaching 14 million users of its IQOS® product and has reportedly invested over $3 billion in their smokeless tobacco products. Philip Morris has been very open about their ongoing transition from traditional fully combustible cigarettes to their modified risk tobacco products, including IQOS®.
https://www.pmi.com/faq-section/faq/what-is-iqos
clearly covered http://www.healthiercmc.com/patents
The Philip Morris IQOS® product is currently the subject of two other patent infringement proceedings filed by RJ Reynolds Tobacco Company. One proceeding is before the International Trade Commission and seeks to stop the importation of the IQOS® product into the United States.
(added)THE INTERNATION TRADE COMMISION / FDA proceeding for the sale and distribution of IQOS system in the united states was in fact just recently approved.
https://www.pmi.com/media-centenews/the-fda-authorizes-the-sale-of-iqos-3-in-the-us
; the other is a patent infringement action currently pending in the Eastern District of Virginia. RJ Reynolds’ patents are unrelated and not affiliated with the patents asserted in the HCMC case.
“We are pleased that after a lengthy and careful analysis, a law firm with the patent litigation reputation and strength of Cozen O’Connor will be enforcing our patent rights,” said Jeff Holman, CEO of HCMC.
Mr. Holman concluded, “We look forward to proving our allegations of infringement in this matter and intend to continue to move forward against any and all companies that infringe upon our intellectual property in both the tobacco and cannabis categories.”
HCMC is in the right here...
FYI an IQOS system costs 100$ 13.6 million users all payed 100$ or 99 euros so 13.6 million users x 100S per unit as of feb 2020 (#'s don't reflect all the new users between feb to now either so the number is larger)
There are now 13.6 million users of the IQOS, 4 million more than a year ago, and Philip Morris estimates 71% of them (around 10 million people) have stopped smoking and permanently switched to the device.
As of Feb 10, 2020
At this point almost a year later they have even more users and now FDA approval for sale running around flag shipping the IQOS System that is in fact actually HCMC's patented intellectual property.
If or when PM ends up on the block and are forced to pay up on those kind of numbers to HCMC. The more greedy they get(and you know they are greedy) the more in the end they owe to HCMC and also the IQOS system that is actually HCMC's intellectual property is now FDA approved for sale in the US. (thanks to PM lol )
cheshirechocobo Wednesday, 12/30/20 10:56:17 PM Re: Badge04 post# 20507 0 Post # 20508 of 30551 MY POINT EXACTLY...If everything clicks for HCMC's legal team and the case goes through they will get rid of the float faster than you can spin your head.
I think they already are even?
If it all goes down in HCMC's favor and this will blow up so monster it will become an OTC legend. If you picked up .0001's on HCMC and held out on this it could change your life.
HCMC can buy out the whole floor after the settlement and if the people involved high up / HCMC's legal team already know how it's going to work out in the end they could be getting an early start not waiting for the courts, to begin enacting their plan and as for .0001's / .0002's they wont even exist afterword's if that is the case they will be a thing of legend as well.
No guarantees but man you could almost make a movie out of the story developing around this, at least a documentary.
At .0001 / .0002 tickets to the show are nothing compared to the ROI potential.
cheshirechocobo Monday, 12/28/20 02:26:15 PM Re: None 0 Post # 20155 of 30551 A theory
HCMC would be smart to keep surprising the price until the court case settles and they then buy up their own shares at .0001 with the money from the settlement.
That scenario would explain why so much volume yet no movement.
If HCMC runs up before the court case ends they can't buy their own shares for .0001 . So they keep it as low as possible and load it until they are ready to buy themselves for .0001 with money from the court settlement funds.
Anyone holding when that happens would just jump up along with the massive big block buys that would follow and HCMC has a massive rocket ride.
That's also how they can own a lot of themselves moving ahead into the future

cheshirechocobo Tuesday, 12/29/20 12:40:55 PM Re: RoidBoi44 post# 20268 0 Post # 20276 of 30551 ok Roidboi ... look...
I don't have a chalk board so I cant draw it out for you but..
HCMC will be able buy out their own bottom floor shares with IQOS Patent lawsuit settlement money.
HCMC sues PM and then all of a sudden HCMC has billions and billions in volume everyday...
I believe HCMC are the ones who will end up with the money to move it and that is why there is so much because its not for us to move its for them to get the lowest price possible on their own shares.
In doing so they will own themselves protecting / controlling their own shares from the bottom. They will then drive the price up as much as possible to give those shares maximum potential value in the future.
This is how an OTC company jumps up on to Nasdaq level.
"The Come up" as it is said.
Phillip Morris is under the gun because they used HCMC's technology (q-cup) in their IQOS vape system.
I suspect they had .0001s reserved for themselves in priority somehow hence the cancelation of everyone's orders on multiple trade platforms even though 0.0001 were reading as available...
This is all IMO but the writing is literally on the wall. The Volume here to me is the dead giveaway Someone's moving the cart along...
Unicorn Potential
END TIMELINE The above posts are all timestamped is a timeline of my thoughts back in 2020 about HCMC and what was going to happen before all the hype and media frenzy and hubaloo... O_O and now here we are today
I'll let you decide if you think I called this one ;) <3 I'm not even going to claim it...
This was the big post I mentioned about reposting and as a reward if you make it through all of this I will be reposting New DD and theory
This was the post that I believe opened some eyes. as follows
HCMC Q-Cup Tech Patent = Phillip Morris IQOS System Flagship next gen vape product being heavily pushed and marketed over 16 million + units already sold globally as of 2020 (the year isn't even over)
So HCMC owns the patent for the technology being used and sold in Phillip Morris's "IQOS" - E cigarette technology
The accused action is illegal
The IQOS system is a major money maker for Phillip Morris having sold 16.4 million units globally as of now.
https://www.nasdaq.com/articles/will-rrps-growth-keep-driving-philip-morris-pm-in-2021-2020-12-28
^Copied from above link (more in article)^
Tobacco companies have long been struggling with declining cigarette sales, thanks to consumers’ rising health consciousness as well as strict marketing and manufacturing policies imposed by regulatory authorities. Amid such a scenario, industry players like Philip Morris International Inc. PM are managing to stay afloat on the back of growth in low-risk tobacco alternatives. Additionally, gains from effective pricing strategies have been an upside. Let’s take a closer look.
RRPs Are a Key Growth Catalyst Philip Morris is committed toward developing a smoke-free future by expanding offerings in the reduced-risk products (RRPs) category. These products, owing to their beneficial claims, are largely being accepted by individuals trying to quit or reduce cigarette consumption. Philip Morris is one of the industry pioneers in driving the shift from cigarettes to RRPs. The company’s IQOS is one of the leading RRPs in the industry. IQOS was launched in the United States in 2019, through a commercial deal with Altria Group, Inc. MO that was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). We note that IQOS is currently the only heat-not-burn product in the U.S. market, which has been approved by the FDA.
Since the onset of the pandemic, the switch from smoking cigarettes to RRPs has been trending positively. Total users of IQOS at the end of third-quarter 2020 were estimated to be about 16.4 million globally. (So 16.4 million units x 100$ per unit = 1640000000$)
In the said quarter, revenues in the RRPs category increased 28.6% and formed a little more than 23% of the company’s top line.
The company expects consistent growth in the heated tobacco category, and therefore has been committed toward expanding these products. Earlier this month, the company’s IQOS 3 received authorization from the FDA for sale in the United States. The new device incorporates a number of technological improvements like enhanced battery life and quicker recharge. In prior efforts, the company started commercializing IQOS VEEV, which is its new product in the vapor category. The company also announced a partnership with South Korea’s KT&G earlier this year to commercialize the latter’s smoke-free products outside the country.
Clearly, such efforts are likely to keep bolstering Philip Morris’ revenues from the RRPs space. Markedly, the company is on track to achieve its 2021 goal of > 90-100 billion < (WOW) shipments of heated tobacco units. (end copy)
So...
HCMC is suing Philip Morris because HCMC developed the patent ("Q-Cup") that is the same technology being used in the IQOS system now being pushed heavily by Phillip Morris and was approved back in 2018.

http://www.healthiercmc.com/patents https://theqcup.com/pages/patents
So for those who don’t know yet. Healthier Choice Management Corp (HCMC) are suing Philip Morris for copyright infringement on their (HCMC's) patent regarding (Phillip Morris's) IQOS - E cigarettes (now being sold like hotcakes by Phillip Morris.)
According to Phillip Morris they haven’t denied this fact by revealing they invested over 3 billion so far into marketing these new E-Cigarette products including the contested IQOS.
https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/11/30/2136949/0/en/Healthier-Choices-Management-Corp-Files-Patent-Infringement-Lawsuit-Against-Philip-Morris.html
HCMC hired the law firm COZEN to pursue these claims. I have attached some links below for further research into the future value of E-cigarettes.
https://www.cozen.com/
If Philip Morris is found guilty and liable of patent infringement it means they illegally sold 16.4 million units of the IQOS system. + the 2021 goal of 100 billion units and any other profits linked to IQOS related profits would be forfeit and owed to HCMC in some form.
That is just mind blowing
Philip Morris is moving forward with their marketing campaign despite the lawsuit even receiving FDA approval for large scale sales of the IQOS system in the United States despite the HCMC lawsuit. If Phillip Morris are found guilty the more profit they make on the IQOS system in the end just digs Phillip Morris a deeper hole as a climbing pay back price tag.

TLDR: They ran out of cash and can’t use customer cash as collateral. Brokers that had more collateral were not affected or were not affected to the same degree.
Edit: This is an explanation not a defense. Fuck them. They didn’t explain that they fucked up and basically got margin called. I didn’t use them but if I did I would have changed brokers instantly. The reason this is important is not just because of GME but because it happened to many brokerages and that means there is liquidity stress in the market right now.
Article from the FT:
The crucial role played by clearing houses in financial markets has been thrust into the spotlight after contentious moves by US brokers such as Robinhood and Charles Schwab to restrict retail investors’ bets on stocks at the heart of the Reddit-fuelled trading boom.
Customers reacted angrily on Thursday as brokers moved to stop them opening new positions in certain red-hot stocks, accusing them of unfair treatment or even a Wall Street establishment plot. But the brokers gave a more mundane explanation: the extra volatility in share prices meant they had to hold more capital at the institutions that clear their trades.
What do clearing houses do? These unobtrusive venues normally sit in the background of daily market activity but they can become the centre of attention during periods of volatility when they require more cash — or “margin” — from their members to ensure that deals are honoured as customers expect.
An equities trade that has been executed can take up to two days to be legally settled, creating a risk of it failing if either side of the trade defaults. A clearing house stands between the two sides to manage the risk to the market if that happens.
Each day members of the clearing house, which range from small brokers like Robinhood to big Wall Street banks such as JPMorgan and Citigroup, are required to put up margin as insurance for their trades.
The amount is calculated by the clearing house and is based on the amount of trading carried out by each member, as well as the volatility of the individual securities traded. Margin is generally collected at the start of the trading day, although there can be intraday calls in frenzied periods, in an attempt to protect the wider market from sudden trade failures.
The clearing member often has limited time to make up the shortfall and the margin typically has to be an asset that is highly liquid, such as cash, US government bonds or shares. In the middle of the market volatility last March, one US bank was required to find $9.6bn of margin for derivatives trades within an hour.
How do brokers such as Robinhood fit into this? In common with rivals such as Schwab and ETrade, Robinhood clears its own trades and is a member of the main US equities clearing house, run by DTCC.
While self-clearing saves on the fees that would otherwise go to another clearing broker, it also means Robinhood takes on the risk that an executed trade does not settle, and needs to have more cash on hand to cover shortfalls. It also faces higher costs if the clearing house raises margin requirements in volatile periods to protect against a member default.
“The extreme volatility is a big factor behind this,” said Andy Nybo, managing director at Burton-Taylor International Consulting. “They need to make sure they are able to meet cash requirements, whether it is for clearing or to investors that are owed money due to trading activity.”
As Robinhood said in a blog post on Thursday, the requirements “can be substantial in the current environment.” It declined to comment further.
Between Wednesday and Thursday, the margin call from DTCC across the US equities market rose from $26bn to $33.5bn, the clearing house confirmed.
DTCC said the frenzied trading in shares such as GameStop and AMC Entertainment “generated substantial risk exposures at firms that clear these trades . . . particularly if the clearing member or its clients are predominantly on one side of the market.”
How did brokers respond? Safety mechanisms built into the market’s infrastructure across Wall Street led to periodic halts in trading activity on Thursday. In order to ensure they had enough money to cover margin and capital requirements, Robinhood and others such as Schwab and TD Ameritrade raised margin for trading on some of the names at the heart of the volatility, which required more cash be set aside after each trade.
This limited its margin needs from escalating further. By allowing users to close positions, it was still permitting trades that would reduce its immediate need for cash.
Robinhood also raised the margin requirements for customers that had not paid for the total value of their trading up front, having cut its margin requirements in December in an attempt to drive more trading activity. That meant some customers suddenly needed to come up with cash to cover trades.
Behind the scenes, Robinhood moved to raise a fresh $1bn in capital from its existing investors, which it announced ahead of trading on Friday. The company said the fundraising was a “strong sign of confidence from investors that will help us continue to further serve our customers”.
Anthony Denier, chief executive of Webull, another company that was forced to restrict trading in some shares, said in an interview with Yahoo Finance that its clearing firm “simply could not afford” the cost of entering into new trades.
“This has nothing to do with a decision or some sort of closed, cigar smoke filled room of Wall Street firms getting together to the dismay of the retail trader,” he said.
————————- Simpler Explanation from Comments ————————
RH and other similar execution firms have to post collateral with the DTCC every time a position is opened. This collateral is to protect the DTCC in the event of the market moving against the position between the time of execution and the time the trade settles (T+2) AND the execution firm failing to settle the trade by being unable to come up with the cash (in the case of a purchase) or the shares (in the case of a sale).
When a share is particularly volatile, the DTCC will up the collateral requirements it imposes on both buyer and seller. When the trade does finally settle the collateral is returned.
RH and other execution firms are prohibited from using client funds for this purpose, which must remain in a segregated account until settlement is finalised. Even if RH decline to allow margin trading on certain volatile stocks, insisting that buyers stump up the full purchase price, this money cannot be used for the 2 day period when RH has to post collateral. If RH executed a sell order during this period, that would reduce DTCC's risk and allow it to return collateral to RH rather than ask for more. This collateral could be re-used by RH, allowing it to make another purchase on behalf of a client. This is why RH could accept sell orders nut not buy orders periodically. Once it had executed enough sell orders, which freed up collateral, it could then offer to accept buy orders, until the collateral ran out again. This is why the blocks on buy orders were periodic - they hit their collateral limit, so stopped accepting buy orders. They executed sell orders which freed up collateral (and collateral was returned as trades settled), allowing them to offer buy orders agin, until the collateral limit was hit again, when they had to once again suspend buy orders. etc etc
And ran out, it did. RH's business model is based on a steady stream of small orders on both the buy sand sell side. If it is executing both buys and sells consistently over time, as far as DTCC is concerned it has very little risk to RH so doesn't need to ask for much collateral to be posted. Hence RH had never planned for a situation where it would be asked to post large quantities of collateral (potentially $billions).
So, it ran out of collateral that it would need to post for buy orders, but sell orders would free up collateral. It arranged a convertible bond issue with existing shareholders that raised $500m immediately, and hopefully another $500m in a few days and it drew down on a loan facility it had with its banks. But still not enough.
The issue RH (and others experienced) is the ridiculously long time it still takes to settle trades (it could be more or less immediate) and the rules that prevent it using client funds as collateral (if settlement was immediate, the client funds wouldn't remain in the segregated account, but would be used immediately to settle the trade).
But it is what it is. If RH wants to execute trades it has to be able to put up the collateral. If it doesn't have the collateral, it can't execute trades (at least the trades that require collateral). But the wider market remained open. Anyone could buy or sell shares at all times. They just needed to put up the collateral themselves for the 2 day settlement period, or find someone who would do so on their behalf.

This is actually a really interesting/in-depth look at our collective Autism from the 'boy and his bot' and well worth a read.
​
- u/BOTANIXtoTENDOLLA had a truly magnificent episode during their Meltdown over GME. We have been keeping a tight leash on these posts, but this one was truly a unique rant and demanded to be preserved.
Caution, reading their post may cause severe haemorrhaging......
​
- u/timbuckley66 has donated $200 to the Autists supporting Z1P fund. Enjoy that shiny new flair young Timmy....
​
​
NEW BETS
​
- u/24caratcommodes made a bet with the mods that BBUS would open at $1.70 or higher after the great Red Monday Open.
Credit to this user for developing a bear thesis that they posted up on Big Daddy sub (got deleted), but the theory was blown apart by a nice shrek-coloured dildo the next morning courtesy of the split personality exchange we all know and love.
Perhaps they should have invested in DLC instead....
​
- u/sweatygooche has made a bet with the mods, claiming that the indefinitely stalled NVA rocket will take off too 20c by the end of February or its ban time.
Maybe this is the spark needed to ignite said stalled rocket, or maybe the mighty Tom will look unfavorably upon the lack of, ahem, tribute......
​
- u/limputg has gotten on board with the body hair bets, stating that 4DS trades at 30c by the end of feb or they will submit a film of eating their own pubes.
It baffles Mods as to why this phenomenon has caught on here, but hey if it keeps us entertained then go crazy.....
​
- Not to be outdone in the consumption of bodily refuse, u/jamesnangs has upped to ante and has gone on the record that JAT will touch 2.5c by the end of Monday 8th or they will eat their own shit.
We don't know why, we just know that is their wish.
And the market provided opportunity for you to act out your pervy scat fetish, yet you were nowhere to be found....
Folks, can you guess what comes Next?????????
​
- u/tuzymandias got in on the act as well, promising that if Z1P hit $10 on Monday they would swallow a sweet load.
Well......... here is the link.
I still feel dirty....
​
- Sub veteran and owner of the ASX_Bets most coveted flair, u/kooksy_monster has made a pact to memorialize their AVA diamond hands by getting some Ink when AVA hits $1.
We will not need to follow our favorite dole bludger up on this claim, mods know they are an autist with a code and shall post up if the mark is hit.
​
- u/bshezza was freed from ban captivity after they made a $350,000 YOLO on TYR.
There is a bet attached, u/oxymoreme has bet against the shezz, claiming that for every 1% up till the end of FEB they will take a 1 week ban.
We enjoy an accumulative ban, its like compound interest, Scotty would be so proud.....
​
- u/luner124 made the commitment to order custom ASXBETS number plates if LKE finished green on Wed Feb 5th.
Let the record show that whilst questionable bodily fluid tributes seem to make green candles, custom number plates seems to be the recipe for red ones, as LKE continued on its merry way down that day....
You'll have to pimp your ride with some alternative bling...........
​
- u/Evilshogun and u/xxt3nt4c10n have a bet running on LKE.
One users likes the LKE, the other no likely the LKE, someone is getting a ban if it misses or hits the 40c mark by Friday 12th, that's all we really need to keep in our short attention span.
​
- As far as we can tell, u/1stPostISwear has missed the 1st post on their convoluted double bet with BRN.
This was a fucked up scenario for Mods to follow, but u/jbent has provided you all with a little video containing just the right amount of spite to try and send their fellow conspirator packing......
BUT WAIT!!!
u/jbent09 is in mourning this weekend.
The scintillating, raw, oddly sexually charged chemistry between these 2 degenerates has been strangely compelling, but u/1stPostISwear has pulled the ultimate ghosting, deleting their entire reddit account and vacating the reddit universe.
Was this a jilted love story gone wrong?
Was it knowing they had fucked up with the bet?
was it the pressure of becoming another failed Prophet?
All we know is that when you leave the table before the end of the game, you lose it all.
So u/1stPostISwear will be receiving a Perma-Ban, albeit a theoretical one...
​
Love, it appears, is fickle indeed.
​
- u/nomadnobad has jumped on the LKE train, with a $1 by Easter or Ban bet.
Train is currently boarding, a few have purchased tickets to feast on tendies or bust in the dining car.
​
- u/phishbaron and u/nundee have a bet running on RNT. The loser of this bet has agreed to donate $1K to charity and post proof on the sub.
There will be no banning here, unless there is a failure to come through then there will be a fucking lot of banning. Seriously though, this reminds me of the Salty Toppings Fight card charity bets we ran a few months ago, hats off lads for doing the good thing....
​
​
BANS
​
- u/itsdankreddit has finally lost a ban bet on DW8. For the record, this use has won every bet up until now so whilst its an impressive ride for the cycling trader, it had to close out sometime.
​
- u/markz91 has been banned for 6 months after a coward gains post drew the ire of some of our more attentive users.
Baby Mod u/mcfucking asked for further proof of the claim and the user has been conspicuously absent since then....
We take our gains seriously people, make a claim and don't back it up at your peril......
​
- u/Beavoir was banned for 1 month after calling out the hairy bear, only to find the bear had out-stonked them and gone temporarily bull.

- u/redlegs1123 has been banished for 3 months after betting that GME would close below 50 the week after the rally. At least he doesn't have to read posts from retards anymore.
​
- u/Maj11k has been banned for 3 months for an attempted short squeeze call to arms.
User seriously needs to learn what the % actually means on shorts.........
​
- u/Xsouleater and u/jarfour offered themselves as sacrifices to the random ban length act for survey posts, earning a 64 day and a 128 day holiday respectively.
However, we really needed to flag a special shout out to u/NezyReddit, whose first post on the sub earnt them a 1024 day ban in accordance with the survey post exponential ban length program.
Mods thought that was epic, but then u/ItsSpyroTheBandicoot rolled the dice and levelled up to a 2048 day ban.
But, if you really want to indulge in this frenzy go and pay your respects here, this user is currently serving a 8192 day ban...
​
Exponential ban gains for the mods every-time someone rolls the dice, and u/phantom_hax0r loves them dice rollin games...
​
calls on bans people!!!
