i do find it funny that sherdog's recommending a gym in which you can't bench more than 150 pounds or whatever their weird rule was.
Does it really? Lmao. Its a good stock. It’s made me money but that’s funny.

It has a ton of haters and the color scheme is awful. I would never set foot in the place unless to act like I own it. I know other people who hate the gym so much they won't invest in it. My personal preferences don't matter at all in investing. Money washes away prejudice and the pettiness of politics. I don't care that Starbucks caters to liberals or whatever. It is a good company.

only so far.

there are some private prisons that look like amazing investments, if i want my money used for private prisons, that is.
 
TAST is another one that has a chance to make a comeback. Biggest Burger King franchise owner in the country and own a bunch of Popeye's too. Average price target is about $15. I'm up about 5% since I bought it. Look into it.

Jony Ive leaving Apple. Lead designer forever. Was behind iPhone, iPad, iMac and iPod. A true legend. He is starting his own company and will still do exclusive things with Apple but no longer works for them. Stock dropped.

Best things he learned from Steve Jobs:

focus

put the product over people, because to care what others think of you is vain. lol

and something else

 
It is opening 225 stores this year alone. Do you know anything? lol. Its profit margins and cash flow from operations have increased every year since they went public. Try actually looking into the company before commenting.

Someone is a little emotional toward this stock. Stop getting overly defensive. I brought up some points where I don’t think this overpriced keychain fob has much life.

It’s a gym membership and nothing more valued at $7 billion. This is nothing more than a Fitbit. They are expanding because fad buyers are pumping money into this stock that’s why they are expanding so rapidly. Once their growth slows, and it will, I hope you are short.
 
So, which one is it, quantity or margin? You still haven't made a point. Planet Fitness has twice the profit margin of Netflix. To compare other companies in the same sector, CBS has double the margins of Netflix. Disney has double the margins of Netflix.

Netflix is a lot less sustainable than Planet Fitness. Planet Fitness has no rivals. Netflix has Disney, AT and T, Comcast, etc. breathing down their neck at cheaper prices, higher margins and more content. Not to mention Amazon and others.

Would you rather have a Netflix subscription or Planet Fitness membership? Planet Fitness is charging enough now and expanding. You don't know what you're talking about.

Plenet Fitness' expenditures are next to nothing while Netflix has to pay good money for the entertainment that they provide. PF has a lot of receipts and very little overhead. That's their business model. They have no dumbells over 75 lbs and they have shitty machines instead of Hammer or Nautilius

You are comparing a hardware company with a service company. Fitbit is more like Arlo. Or GoPro. Those are tough businesses with companies rising and dying all the time. Turtle beach. Sonos. It is a graveyard. Not soon after IPOs they die. Hardware is tough to maintain. You need subscriptions like Arlo is trying to do and Apple does. How many gyms rise and die? lol. What other gyms are even in the market? They are paying for atmosphere you clown. They pay to not be around people like you. Planet Fitness does not sell exercise anymore than bars sell beer. They sell atmosphere.

They are expanding because it is a gym for people who don't go to gyms, and the people who don't go to gyms is a much larger number than people who do.

That's why I used a same sector comparison with someone like CBS who has much better financials.
 
NVDA has had a good run this week. Hopefully this keeps on going. Don't feel like selling it yet.
 
These videos kill me. lol. You can't beat Bogdanoff.

 
Damn, Churchill Downs ain't playing around. I sold this at $100 not too long ago. I'm also looking into Las Vegas Sands for my parents. Good dividend. Already own Wynn.

Ok, I misread the movie industry as you can by the AMC debacle. What blockbusters help more is IMAX. People want to see this shit on IMAX. Hopefully Esports too


We live in the era of the blockbuster films: James Cameron’s “Avatar,” J.J. Abrams’ “Star Wars,” Marvel’s “The Avengers.” And as films get bigger, so does the movie-watching experience.

“Asking us, ‘How important are blockbusters?’ is like asking people how important water is,” IMAX (IMAX) CEO Richard Gelfond told Yahoo Finance’s On the Move. “A lot of the mid-level movies have moved on to streaming platforms, whereas the blockbuster really plays to a global audience.”

American box offices have seen losses in the first quarter of 2019 while IMAX has seen gains — largely from higher profits overseas. Less than 30% of IMAX’s revenues come from North America, while the Chinese Box office alone made $105.8 million in 2019 through March 31. That’s more than $30 million more than the U.S. box office over the same time period.



IMAX CEO Richard Gelfond is interested in “expanding beyond blockbusters.”


This could be a reaction to the rise of social media, he posited, and the desire for in-person shared experiences. “People don’t just want to sit in their homes and chain themselves to their desk,” he said.

“We’re looking for other experiences besides movies that would fit the bill,” said Gelfond. “IMAX has 520,000 seats for any one show worldwide in 80 countries, and if we could capture some of the non-blockbuster time, I think this could just be the beginning of where IMAX could go,” he said, referring to periods of time when there aren’t blockbuster movie releases like “Avengers: Endgame.” He hinted that esports would be a potential area of expansion.

In response to a comment about watching a “Call of Duty” match on the big screen, Gelfond said, “or even to play one — to play one against another theater.”

maybe, but i doubt it.

i suspect it will make considerable gains after the next earnings report.

just because the market disagrees doesn't mean you're wrong/the market's right. the market's an idiot.
