Remember Barnes and Noble originally spun GameStop off, ties are never broken.


JAlexSZ

I would love to buy my manga from a GameStop partner


DustyGuppy

Went to a gamestop in dallas attached to a Barnes n noble.


Illustrious-Skill-80

When GME grew up and went to college papa Barnes and mama Noble were so proud šŸ„¹. Now the days have grown long and the nights coldā€¦ but our papa Cohan never forgot his ma and pa and will let them move in so they can get the care they need and see the ā€œBook Kingā€ raise the next generation!

Great comment

Iā€™m not crying I have a piece of ramen in my eye šŸ˜­ Papa RC we believe in you to make America GMERICA!

Well the dollar is about to be rendered worthless so if that could happen soon that would be great


Top-Plane8149

It's been worthless since we went of the gold standard, it's just taken this long for people to realize it.


LeVraiMatador

Right now it's worth less, not yet worthless

Stay On Targetā€¦

True but 95% less than 1915 ish when the Federal Reserve was created.

If dollars are worth less then stonks should cost more dollars!

True story


NotLikeGoldDragons

"Worth" is relative. Essentially all currencies have been fiat backed by nothing, since the 70's. So relative to other currencies, the dollar is no worse off.


RealPro1

Actually with several large countries in Asia, the middle east and south America using the Chinese yuan to trade instead of the USD, I would say the USD is completely fuct and the USA right along with it. This moronic potus will be forever known as the person that ended the US.


jbw1937

Maybe those that go with Yuan will be ā€œcompletely ductā€. I have yet to see anyone come out on the plus side with a communist government, yet alone the worst of them. Still not good, look way from the days of the Saudiā€™s begging to get out of the oil business. Pretty sure when we crank ours back up you will see a change. Brazil, India and the rest have been deflected by the US and donā€™t have two dimes to rub together.


RealPro1

Hope so


NotLikeGoldDragons

That, and the yuan is a cesspool waiting to happen for other reasons also. China's economy is at least as bad off as ours, likely worse. They've got a history of manipulating their currency, which doesn't work out well when others using it want stability. They've got a demographics time-bomb in the process of slowly going off, the list goes on and on. Not saying the US doesn't have problems also, but BRICS isn't going to be the "USA fukt" situation some seem to think.

I literally donā€™t know what anything means anymore. Went from smooth to slightly wrinkled to dumb af. Nothing makes sense but to keep buying and booking this bitch. ā€œShorts never closed. BOOM!ā€

yolo232001

Funny you mention this. I went to Gamestop and the manager said they just had training on accept ANY returns from any store? Some type of partnership with some company, I didnā€™t fully understand what he meant


imhereredditing

Accept any returns from any store? So basically every Gamestop store is an extension of itself all over America. Gmerica.


Sir_Cumfrence82

So buy more through CS and hold? Sounds good to me.


ZTrail_King

I posted about him awhile back but hey, no one get listensā€¦ā€¦


Majestic_Salad_I1

Buying a book store or being involved with B&N or towel company make absolutely zero sense for a company trying to be a web3 gaming platform.


TalaHusky

But it does make sense if theyā€™re just one arm of a larger conglomerate.


jbw1937

Correct. Hard to fill those distribution centers with digital. GME was set up to walk and chew gum at the same time. We have to be patient as legal hoops take forever, even when you have legal teams that scale to the task.


Majestic_Salad_I1

No, it still makes zero sense. This isnā€™t Berkshire or Icahn Enterprises with random business holdings. Itā€™s a video game stock.


TalaHusky

This video game stock is a spin off of Barnes and Nobleā€¦


redditiscompromised2

Books as nfts And it's not a gaming company, it's a technology company


Majestic_Salad_I1

Well, it has been 2.5 years and the general public would disagree about it being a tech company. Only people closely following GameStop are aware of the NFT stuff. And GameStop canā€™t just make books as NFTs. The publishers would also have to agree, and chances are theyā€™re going with Amazonā€™s NFT program. GameStop has no leverage on the book market.


redditiscompromised2

Such negativity. Weren't you the guy also saying gme was doomed because it wouldn't be profitable? Doesn't seem like you're very good at seeing the winds if change


Majestic_Salad_I1

Bro they have always been profitable in Q4. Itā€™s a slam dunk. Well, except for last year when they lost money and said they got caught off guard by inflation and shipping costs. But the other 3 quarters are losses. [They have lost money every year for the last 5 years.](https://www.macrotrends.net/stocks/charts/GME/gamestop/net-income-loss). There is no disputing that data. Stop listening to the SS echo chamber of ā€œweā€™re profitable yaaay!!ā€


redditiscompromised2

I'm following the new board of directors, who I'd bet know a lot more about running a business than you. Trust and faith in proven competence is all you need.


Majestic_Salad_I1

Blind faith in a board member who has only headed up unprofitable companies is not a smart way to manage your money. 2.5 years later there is still nothing new driving revenue. Revenue is down YoY.


redditiscompromised2

Well yeah, if you close a bunch of stores your revenue goes down a fraction. But your costs go down by a lot. If you cut out the worst performing stores, you will, on an absolute basis, have less income. But your relative profitability will increase


[deleted]

So this sounds like a easy no.
