Seems like there would be a 'crowd' reaction to the star bond drop, falsely associating it with upcoming films - causing a 'mini' panic sell

I'm guessing many people don't fully understand the 'math' / 'mechanics' of star bonds - and looking for a reason, might figure something is 'up' with 'The Beekeeper' (in this case - (JSTAT)'s drop).

SMACK-DOWN Tuesday For 22,559,203 Shares Held LONG Of (JSTAT) Which Increased In Value By 0.75 On 175,000 Shares Traded. RotoHockeyYTD2014 Oct 16, 23:40

Incoming! {nm} ndmaster Oct 17, 00:13

Wondering how many will bail *after* TAG ballpark_frank Oct 17, 03:54

However - also wonder if HSX price of The Beekeeper (BEKPR) might drop as well {nm} ballpark_frank Oct 17, 03:58

Depends how many (JSTAT) investors might draw the 'connection' between his drop (due to TAG), and decide to bail there as well {nm} ballpark_frank Oct 17, 04:00

(JSTAT) Shares Held LONG Increased by 704,017 from 22,559,203 to 23,263,220. RotoHockeyYTD2014 Oct 18, 00:51

The 'connection' doesn't go that way. Bond prices don't drive moviestock prices. Only the other way around. Bond_Port Oct 19, 14:22

Play it how YOU see it. {nm} Grunt Oct 17, 11:11

That's not the smart move. The smart move was to short it yesterday before halt. {nm} ndmaster Oct 17, 15:19

The Beekeeper is still in wrap status {nm} ballpark_frank Oct 17, 16:44

So? It is a wash with the movie that will come out of his TAG, so his EAP won't budge {nm} ndmaster Oct 17, 18:59

But why did you mention it (The Beekeeper) being halted? {nm} ballpark_frank Oct 18, 03:54

Beekeper wasn't halted, JSTAT was. ndmaster Oct 18, 13:39

No, SBO usually get a 'reversal pop' for a short while after a long, drawn out move and after a big adjust. ndmaster Oct 18, 13:41

Once it adjusted, I bought long to take advantage of all the covers the next day, made almost 8% from it. {nm} terraformingearth Oct 19, 10:21

Both moves worked. {nm} terraformingearth Oct 19, 10:22

YOU BETCHA! 22,559,203 Shares LONG of (JSTAT) took a -32.36 S/B SMACK-DOWN Up the Wazoo. Plenty of Warnings from Multiple Traders. RotoHockeyYTD2014 Oct 17, 23:23
