Everyone said galaxy will be the biggest flop. A lot of hsx people shorted the stock early this year. {nm} mike255 Aug 02, 11:54

And yet there were a ton more people holding it long as well... So not exactly "everyone". {nm} ~JPV~ Aug 02, 11:59

not a lot. ratio was about 3,000 long vs. 130 short, still a few stubborn ones left on the short side :) {nm} Oleg Max Aug 02, 11:59

Some of those hanging on are negative ports and I'd guess others just haven't logged in in a long time... {nm} ~JPV~ Aug 02, 12:03

There are also 331 {nm} JDolphin Aug 02, 12:35

331K Calls shorted and that hit $35 (at max short a $400,000 hit on Monday) and 2.3 mil short OW - another possible 1 mil hit - Ouch {nm} JDolphin Aug 02, 12:38

that = could (sorry for the fumble fingers with this post) {nm} JDolphin Aug 02, 12:39

I remember a point was made that no August film had adjusted 180+ and so people shorted. I did not, Marvel don't do flops... {nm} TheMackenzie Aug 02, 12:06

Some people shorted above 200 and covered below 170 weeks later {nm} Houndowl Aug 02, 12:42

That's what I did to the number. I literally went back long at 170 on the nose. {nm} Willroast Aug 02, 12:57

Me too. The weak May blockbusters and fanboy response made me cover my short at just the right time. {nm} numbersix_99 Aug 02, 16:29

that 1st trailer scared me away with the ipo price gain. By the time I liked the 2nd trailer I got back in at 155 {nm} shortit Aug 02, 14:49

That's well said. And the first trailer deserved the doubts it raised. {nm} second gary Aug 02, 15:10

This was me too. Dales Aug 02, 16:13

I believe it's one of my Top 5. {nm} grammar Aug 02, 17:42

i never underestimated it cause i never bought it....i am all in for the OW however... {nm} horrorfanatic Aug 02, 19:06
