BK

tth2000

Here’s the thing about student loans…… BK doesn’t dissolve that shit. Go down to the library or quad and fill out every credit card application you can find. Then use that money to play options roulette. BK will wipe the slate clean on that debt.

Dude I went to a BK in Alabama once. Holy shit. Transformative experience. BK in the northeast sucks ass but down south you can have it your way apparently

I would think that the involuntary BK petition that was just dismissed had a negative effect on signing new contracts. I would think that MIGI is actively seeking those contracts now. The market cap is too low at $28 million with 129 MW of power. And I think there is another company considering acquiring MIGI, but it should not be below $4/share. IMO

"Collapse" feels really strong when their transactions were down less than one percent, and revenue up. Big question is what their competitors do. Last few months, McDonalds, Wendy's, Burger King had really great deals in their app. Go to those subreddits, the deals are gone as of the last few weeks. So it's no longer get a $7 whopper meal, it's gets a $10.39 whopper meal(just checked my BK, it's that for a medium right now), or $12.50 Chipotle burrito and drink. That makes it a much closer call. I'd do $7 whopper meal all day every day over Chipotle. But as the price gap closes I may go back and forth.

Remember when they should have gone bankrupt in 2021…zoom out regard it’s a house of cards. Could it get to $400 sure - but odds are heavily against you with many in the industry going BK and defaults are multiplying. Just look at its apples to apples competitor in carmax and the valuation comparison

top 10% household here, McDonald's is too expensive now and BK is yucky

My store messed up my order a month ago. The customer service chatbot is fully automated and gives you a credit for slightly more than you paid for the item. I've been back 5 times since then and haven't paid a dime. They fuck up my order. Every. Time. It's always something stupid and trivial too - like I'll gladly pay 15c for tomato on my chicken sandwich. No tomato? guess that's the whole order credited back to my account. Thanks BK. For a company who advertises itself on doing custom items really well, my local store can never, ever, do it right.

nosmelc

BK was good in the 80's.

IKnowGuacIsExtraLady

As an American I will say at no point in my life has any Burger King ever been good. Most fast food has declined in quality over the years but BK started at the bottom. I really don't understand how they still exist.

Khimari_Ronso

I find BK to be consistently terrible.

Skyfier42

BK quality completely depends entirely on the health standards of the owner. 

TheDaharMaster

\*Burger King has entered the chat Seriously tho...BK is super hit or miss. Sometimes you'll find a great store that makes the food properly, but most times it's like a bunch of baboons behind the counter slapping burgers together and leaving the fries out too long.

GrandmaPoses

I'm not going to say it's why you have more money - but as a fellow 10%-er I don't eat, and would never eat, McDonald's or BK. I also don't eat at Chipotle and that's because they overcharge for shitty food.

Altruistic-Room2683

And the fake meat at BK

Pereise1

How much we pumpin if we get another one of those fraud trade deals where rare earths aren't restricted, tariffs go back to 50% or whatever, and Xi buys 🥭 a BK kings hat for the photo shoot?

Suitable_Block_7344

It's been like that at a lot of places I've been to recently. Only McDonald's fries taste the same. I've tried BK, Wendy's, chic-fil-a, and Denny's in the past year and they all tasted terrible

Brother wtf are you talking about there are both plant based nuggets and burgers at both McDonalds and Burger King in Germany. BK was first yes but McD has had them for more than year now.

Jaded_Boysenberry_60

It’ll never go back. Even if it pumps again so many bag holders will dump it just to recoup some losses. The end of the road for them is eventually BK. You could try and sell CC for a while but it’s toast.

CatalystOfChaos

I got the beyond burger at BK a couple times It actually wasn't bad. Could barely tell the difference between the regular whopper and the beyond whopper. But since I'm not doing it for moral or dietary reasons, why would I pay the same for fake meat?

EmergencyFair6786

BYND is diluting their shares right into WSB hype. Executives will get one last big severance payout, some debt will get paid, and then they'll go BK.

United_Recover7190

Probably better to say that MIGI lagged the valuation recognition in the sector. For a company doing over $40 Million in annual revenue, the market cap is about $28 million. Check out the other bitcoin miners going into AI. Huge moves in market cap. What attracts me to MIGI is that it has run up on high volume and consolidated right after a court case was thrown out. That court case with a threat of bankruptcy had negative effects on winning new clients--why would any company sign with that BK possibility out there? That is over. (BTW, the run up you mention probably attracted short sellers...watching for those shorts to cover). The public float is about 18 million shares. GL

theummeower

I’m going to BK and getting an impossible whopper. Fuck BYND

Altruistic-Room2683

I’m gonna go to BK and order the beyond whopper burger and go to pickup window

AnonThrowaway998877

I think this highly varies by location and ownership/management. The BK nearest to me is absolutely filthy and the Wendys is pristine by fast food standards. But I have seen some very run down Wendys traveling.

CatalystOfChaos

Fake meat, you're my only hope. I had the beyond burger at BK and it was surprisingly not bad... but since it was the same price as actual beef, why would I ever buy it?

I was middle aged in the middle of my career in 2009. I recall understanding I had many years for the market to rebound to new highs. I bought as many equities as I could when the market tanked. I focused on home builder ETF’s. We lost a few long time clients and my salary went down about 10%. We tried to buy distressed real estate but were either outbid or my wife was not willing to take the plunge. The people who really suffered were folks that bought real estate at the high in 2007-08 and had to sell for some reason. That or people who got scared and sold. I know 2 people who each lost $1B and another who lost $900M and went BK. All three of them were highly leveraged in big real estate deals. I also know folks who bought property on the courthouse steps at fire sale prices who made a fortune.

AntoniaFauci

If you mean ones that will rip this week or this month, who knows. But if someone has multi-year patience, there’s some very tempting prospects. Solar energy is free electricity from the sky. It’s the cheapest, the safest, the cleanest, and the quickest electricity form. The fact this anti-science and anti-reality regime has programmed people from all sides to think the opposite is a scenario than can’t continue forever. Especially not in an environment where communities that currently consume 1 GW of electricity are anticipating adding data centers that supposedly need 17 GW. You don’t go from 1 to 18 without unbelievable amounts of generation. Solar is cheap, safe, quick. It’s not 17 GW, but whatever capacity it does add is practically free. Profitable companies with best of breed products and solutions like **Enphase and Stem** are down 90%. I don’t know if reality kick in during 2025 or 2026 or 2027. I just know that when people remember that free and clean electricity is good, these will be multi bag wins. **BROS** is a rapidly growing regional to national chain. It’s well run, with sustainable growth, and healthy margins. Their big name competitor has burnt their reputation, demoralized employees, been gone deaf to customers, and is currently shrinking and chopping and firing the rank and file even as they shatter all sense in executive compensation. In contrast, BROS has happy customers and rising esteem in HundredX tracking. Their most recent earnings was a monster beat, sending the stock up to near $90. On no other actual news, it has declined almost every day since. Some of that is being lumped into the QSR restaurant category, which isn’t right. Some is every bungled step by SBUX being unfairly projected on BROS. Some is overshot fear of coffee commodity costs. Some is capital being yanked from anything physical and tangible into quantum and AI fairy dust futures. If the upcoming earnings builds on the last one, BROS here in the $40s could be brewing up a piping hot rebound. If not, the traditionally strong Q4 is right here. It’s fairly risked down here. Base chemical component makers tend to be cyclical, and they’re way down deep in the cycle now, where they’ve been for an inexplicably long time. I’m not that qualified to even explain exactly why. I can’t fully explain why they’ve dropped so much, for so long. You’ve got DD, TRINSEO, DUPONT type names that have been crushed. TRINSEO is down to BK-worry levels, now $1-2 down from peaks in the $60’s. Supposedly the expected turn in 2025 is now even in doubt for 2026. But the world does use and need these primary chemicals. When the turn happens, for the ones that survive gains could be *more* than 10x. Personally, I can live with having a large position in things that a dead money for multiple years if there’s a prospect of a 10x later. Fear/vid/volatility instruments are also beaten down. They decay, so they’re typically always setting new all time lows. But they usually spike on panic events, things the tend to happen at least once a year. They spiked in April for instance, and two times during 2024. If you’re ready and able to sell a spike, that can be a double digit or even triple-digit gain.

OP if it makes you feel any better I lost 90% of my wealth in 2008-2009. I was in high school and saved $13k from selling candy and having part time jobs. I invested into two stocks ACAS - American Capital Strategies a mezzanine financing company that lended money to various small/midsized businesses (roughly $10-$100 million in assets) and based out of Bethesda Maryland and EXM - Excel Maritime Carriers a dry bulk ocean shipping company based out of Greece (the country). Both proceeded to shit the bed. You have to diversify and buy lots of different companies. Maybe try buying SPY. If not you have to start investing for the long term into some safer companies like: CAT, CSX, ORCL, BX, MCD. Here are a few more: MSFT, XOM, PEP, BK, and RSG. Good luck, you can recover from your losses. If nothing else, just buy SPY (the entire S&P 500), and never sell, no matter what. Set it to dividend reinvest.

Independent_Name_601

Market cap vs a balance sheet metric are why people get in trouble analyzing a stock. Look at the tangible value of the company and compare to liabilities. Not market cap. Market cap can be a premium or discount to balance sheet value. It’s true if market cap gets too low the company could go insolvent, but on the flip side a company can issue new stock to offset debt, similar to a govt opting to print new money to satisfy debt instead of borrowing or taxing. It will kill the stock price but will resolve the debt obligation (in theory). In practice they would push for a debt restructure and if unable to resolve then file for BK to restructure and reissue stock and/or take the company private.

This right here. I’m expecting dramatic growth for Amazon. Their foray into healthcare and pharmacy has incredible potential as does AWS. I also think the bank stock for NY Mellon, $BK, is poised for breakout based on their numbers to date.

lonestar-newbie

I think institutional investment doesnt mean anything.. over the years I have seen institutions adding a ton of stocks that went bankrupt.. VRM and NKLA are examples I closely followed.. even up until the BK announcement the ownership kept getting bigger and bigger. Take it as you will but I stopped considering institutional ownership as a good thing.

A lot of casinos have filed BK, hell a lot of businesses have filed bk. It's like he told Killary in the debate "yes I take care of the tax advantages you created just like all your donors " BK is a tool, and so are you but different sense of the word.

Local_yokel_

Yep. Debtors get paid in a BK before the owners. A shareholder is an owner and as such at the bottom of the list to keep anything in a BK. In an 11 the company often has to issue new stock as part of the reorganization in order to compensate the creditors. The old owners lose their equity stake.

rawbdor

Wendys has 5968 stores in usa. BK has 6584. Worldwide, it's wendys at 7200 vs BK at 19,780... So no, Wendys isn't number 2.

Boston-Bets

BoA (@ $3) and Citi (@ $1) during the housing crisis meltdown. Before that it was only funds in 401k, but I didn't think that the Gov/Fed would let those two fail, like they did Lehman Bros. I was right... Went up 4x on those as the market recovered, and sold them, to dump all my capital and profits into WaMu Pref's (WAMPQ) during WaMu's BK. Those buys formed the base of my 5000+ shares of COOP that I still have today, with $1M in unrealized profits still tied up in those shares.

wolf_of_rapestreet

BK is at most of them (by contract) Maybe they will finally upgrade to Wendy's

Boston-Bets

It CAN be very profitable to buy shares of a company POST BK. THAT'S how I made $1M+ on COOP. Just bought 100 WOLF as an initial tracker, and we'll see if I can't turn this into another COOP.

VANGUARD Natural Resource 'VNR' fund. I kept buying down thinking "no way is a vanguard fund going to zero. Well, not only did it but there was an additional tax I was hit with when it hit BK. I was very down that time of my life, a 25k loss invoked a lot of stress but I worked through it and got back on track. I felt Vanguard did investors wrong on this one.

$KOS is an offshore E&P company, primary operations in West Africa, some in the GoA. They explore, find oil/gas, and sell that oil into the market. There are no AI datacenters anywhere remotely close to where Kosmos produces. AI data centers need electricity, not barrels of oil or trucked nat gas. Kosmos also has an unsustainable balance sheet situation. Look @ what shell announced with them Friday. They are either going BK, or will be bought by shell for pennies on the dollar. Don't.

This is exactly what I think . He controls the mkts . Long and short. Being Pres is an op for Him to make as much money as possible. But I would not rely on anything he says h cause te can change it from good to bad on a quick second. Also impt - Trump has gone BK6xs - he doesn’t really know how to handle money . Why doesn’t he stop and just play golf all day. So he can be a bully.

iShares Core MSCI World UCITS ETF is already diversified, you don't need to diversify into more ETFs and it doesn't get you anything. It already contains the entire S&P500 at market weight. Buying a S&P500 ETF on top actually reduces your diversification as it's a tilt to US large cap. This isn't necessarily wrong, you just need to understand it isn't diversifying you. ETFs hold hundreds or thousands of companies. S&P500 ETF holds 500 US large cap companies. iShares Core MSCI World holds 1,323 companies, *including* those 500- plus more. So you have all of the S&P500 already in that ETF, and if you buy more you have what's called "overlap" which is concentrating your holding in US large cap. If you wanted to diversify, while still in equities, you would be better off adding an emerging markets ETF like [iShares Core MSCI Emerging Markets IMI UCITS ETF](https://www.justetf.com/en/etf-profile.html?isin=IE00BKM4GZ66) (at market weight- so no more than 10%) as that specific iShares ETF is developed markets only. This gives you an additional 3,044 companies that *aren't* already in the developed markets ETF. Alternately, and it would be my preference, you could buy an "All World" ETF like [Vanguard FTSE All-World UCITS ETF](https://www.justetf.com/en/etf-profile.html?isin=IE00BK5BQT80) (3,592 holdings) or [iShares MSCI ACWI UCITS ETF](https://www.justetf.com/en/etf-profile.html?isin=IE00B6R52259) (2,318 holdings). Note all of these are 100% equity and that's risky. Much less risky than holding single stocks, but you could have as much as a 40-50% drop easy in a crash, so you need to be prepared for that and accept it could happen. Diversification beyond equities would involve bond funds but I don't feel you really need this at age 30, particularly not if you also have two properties and the equity portion of your overall net worth is only 30-40%. On average, over the long run, equities have better performance. But you really need ask do you accept a possible drop of 40-50%. Accepting that *risk* is what gets you the long-term average returns of 7-10%, rather than the 2% you are getting now (with capital 100% protected).

My dad when SMR was $2 a share, “Should I invest?” Me: “Nah. That company is heading for BK. They’re laying off employees left and right.” I got disowned.

I’ve been investing/following OPEN for years. They were heavily shorted in what felt like an organized campaign in combination with their potential delisting timeline. I just felt like it was way overdone and they were being priced for BK when all you had to do was look at their actual financials to see that was false. People love to hate them tho

Terron1965

It's tax loss harvesting and happens on regular bonds all the time. People buy/sell them for the tax reduction they give so there is a market.. He sells to you at what he would get from the write off, and the new owner hopes it gets better after paying pennies on the dollar for it. One in 10 pays out fully. your doing well if no one pays up you receive your penies back from the BK process or write off the losses.

In the early 2000s I started DCA investing into an IRA. I bought Netflix when they were only mailing DVDs, Apple when they were beat down, and a new electric car company called Tesla. I also put some money into QQQQ and other funds. As the individual stocks beat the market, I decided I was great at picking winners. So over time I invested in a US flatscreen TV maker (Syntax-Brillian) that went to zero, a solar panel company that died, a promising pharmaceutical company that got bought out for pennies right before BK, and a video game engine (U) that made a couple horrible acquisitions (currently down 35%). During that time, I bought into these companies as they dropped, rarely catching that falling knife. Turns out, I'm not Warren Buffet. These days I mostly invest in VTI and QQQ. I do occasionally invest a small amount into long shots like Rivian and CYBN, but mostly treat that like gambling. I regret those early wins, because they got me high on the smell of my own farts. Maybe SOME can beat the index funds, but that ain't me.

I mean it doesn’t take much to look at the balance sheets and cash flows of both airlines and see that JetBlue really shouldn’t have been trying to spend 4 billion on a struggling ULCC (a dying business model since basic economy on legacy airlines) with expensive assets and what, Fort Lauderdale as a hub? It was a shit decision and a desperate move to begin with, cheaper to just wait for Spirit to die and pick up the pieces in BK court.

Yeah that’s not typically true. My BK was discharged in 2020. 2021 bought two new cars below 6%. Purchased a house in 2023 at 5.5%. Two more trucks in 2024 for my business. Now have a 45k card limit but pay all balances off monthly. BK is a great option if you have the means and the ability to change your habits and spend within your means. 7 to 10 years for it to drop of your credit completely.
