Over the next few months, I'm expecting some solid moves: Riley (90% conviction for 100% gain) should pop by mid-August, $Anro (80% conviction for 140% gain) in the next couple weeks, $ATHE (75% for 50% gain) sometime in two months, $CING (70% for 200% gain) in three, and $SLS (90% for 600% gain) in four, $PYPD (95% for 100% gain) eoy. When each one jumps, I'll cash out some profits-keeping 20% to stash in my long-term port. The rest of the gains get split between whatever plays are still active.... ignoring my 5% rule, as I'm considering this as one play. As each stock hits, the leftover money keeps cycling forward, giving me more firepower for the next move... I think each move, will be enough of a move, I only need to be right on a few of these. 50:50 shares/call splits on ANRO and SLS RILY 30/70 shares/calls. Everything else is shares only.

RILY management are all a bunch of fraudsters. Been shorting this shit for a while. Been printing profits. They managed to do a quick pump and dump on APLD shareholders without any of them noticing, which is sad. Anyway, this co is still an okay short at this point.

The greatest thing that happened to me last year was a black swan event where I was left holding the bag. Long story shorty a company (RILY) that had a heart attack; I got assigned before the stock price cratered on seriously bad news. The funny thing is that I was excited to see it happen; things 3 standard deviations from the mean are unlikely, but they are not outside of the realm of possibility. No amount of navel gazing compares to what you can learn when it happens to you. I may hit some high IV stocks but I avoid garbage stocks; too many unknowns that diminish the reliability of probabilities. I didn't think RILY was a bad stock, but when the CFO is put on leave, the FTC opens a fresh investigation, and the last few earnings reports get recalled, all numbers get reset and you find yourself in a whole different board game.

Mentions:#RILY#FTC

WOLF a sleeping semiconductor giant. Aiming to sell the Silicon Carbide Tech to data centers, that could save them. ATOM tech that could improve just about any application using silicon chips. Rezolve AI, Google and Microsoft are partners. They have an LLM model that mimics a salesman, voice enable. This company will kick SOUN's ass. HUMA tech to help people with gunshot wounds and extreme trauma. Heavily shorted but their income is growing. AMPX silicon nanonwire batteries for drones and other small devices. Manufacturing in the US. RILY this is a gamble. Their stock price went down from 50 to 2.67. I loaded up at 2.67, could this well known financial company recover? I don't know.

Uhhhhhh, where’s this coming from? 😂That’s a really bold thing to say when you clearly didn’t do your homework. I’ve been pretty public about my options and how I monetized them. Before I got banned from r/rily, I was pretty public about the ~12 million I made from my puts from playing 3 rounds with RILY. I would have shorted RILY but the cost to borrow and crazy dividend yield made it not possible. After that, I’ve been on the quantum stock subreddits talking about my puts, calls, and shorting. Even as recently as a few hours ago, I’ve been talking about puts and calls for APLD. Choosing between shorting and buying puts or doing both really depends on several factors such as put pricing, the catalyst, the timing, dividend yield, and the cost to borrow. After my puts in RILY, I didn’t have a position in RILY for several months as I was focusing on other shorts. Recently, the cost to borrow no longer became a concern for me so I’m now in to direct shorting RILY. Buying the puts in RILY now would probably be a shitty idea given the high cost and improbability to monetize these puts. I’ll milk them to bankruptcy just like I milked CONN to bankruptcy, then APLD is next. If a company is connected to the fraudsters at B Riley, I will find them and short them next. Hope that helps. If you have more questions, I can help.

Exactly right, some really good plays like PLCE, RILY, GRRR I found here based on solid DD and without shilling the same play over and over again. Right now this reminds me of when people were pumping shit stocks for the sake of pumping. I'm not saying that Wolf is a shit stock but for some reason no one is mentioning why their stock price cratered and are only blaming shorts. Shorting doesn't occur without reason and in the case of Wolfspeed there is a reason their stock got shorted. They have a massive debt load, their revenue hasn't been ramping up as expected (which may or may not change) in a niche market while the economy is facing a significant downturn. The chips funding is up in the air, demand for EVs (one of their larger segments has been waning) has been waning and they need to reach an agreement with their debt holders soon. On the positive side they are ramping up their production, they found a good CEO who's been in the space for 20+ years, chips funding may come in another form. Everyone should make their own decisions but screaming about short conspiracies and all that is utter bullshit.

So looking at the data, the number of shorted shares and the Daily Short Volume data, there's still likely to be more covering on Monday. The borrow rate has also increased. Schwab has increased it from 15% on the 26th to 19.50% on the 28th. Interactive Brokers has increased it from 20% on the 24th to 32% on the 28th (that's a big jump). This will likely force any remaining shorts to cover. However, the covering will happen early morning (i.e. 3am-4am). So it's hard to tell if any covering will have an affect on the price. Here's the downside: On most, if not all, brokerages RILY isn't a 24/5 traded stock. Shorts usually cover early morning, and most often at the bid or mid price. This combination of early covering at the bid/mid and limited pre-market volume, allows them to cover large volumes of shares without significant price action. Covering at the bid/mid actually lowers the stock price quickly after they've covered. Below is an example of shorts covering at 3am on ENVB on the morning of 2/26. These are 1 minute candles. The first green candle on the left is the last after-hours trade on 2/25. It closed at $2.08. The second green candle is at 3am on 2/26. Shorts covered 162,602 shares at the bid/mid in that single candle. After one minute, the price drops, each green candle is covering and each red candle after it is the price dropping because the bid/mid price has created a large bid/ask spread, and because of limited pre-market volume, the price keeps dropping. The last red candle on the right is at 3:20am. It closed at $2.07. All of those green candles combined (starting with the 2nd one) is over 1 million shares (exactly 1,017,913 shares) shorts covered over the span of 20 minutes, without increasing the stock price. Its this type of activity that puts retail traders at a disadvantage, and allows institutional traders to make trades that have very little downside risk. ENVB was a $2 stock and had 14.4% short interest with 1 Day to cover and an 18% borrow rate as over close on 2/25. That's a risky trade, but they didn't actually have any risk in it, because of this kind of activity. https://preview.redd.it/s583xaj3v1me1.png?width=468&format=png&auto=webp&s=1c251dd0b905ff818187759e1799e870806efb98

Wait until you get hit with a black swan event (3 sigma from the mean) before you start counting all of them chickens. This right here is what kills even experts and trading houses; the chances for 3 standard deviations from the mean is really small, falling beyond 99.7% of cases. But they do happen and because of the oversize impact they can throw a hell of a monkey wrench on your best laid plans. Mine was RILY. Early last year they came out of a SEC investigation squeaky clean, with such a jump on the share price that created a ton of volatility. Long story short for months I milked them on a weekly basis as if it was free money. That is, until last August when out of the blue they suspended dividends, reported an out of the blue $14 - $15 per share loss (on a $20 share), which was mostly from loan write-offs reportedly tied to The Franchise Group and its ex-CEO Brian Kahn. Oh and by the way the CFO is put on leave while the SEC opened another investigation for the improper loan and lack of disclosures. I got assigned at $18 shortly before the company hit the lowest share price in a decade around $5. If you are just selling and collecting them premiums, you need to broaden your skillset to include hedging for oversize risks you are bound to hit sooner or later. How big is your options bankroll? $2,965 doesn't mean much without knowing how much money you are deploying.

I’ve been following most of the saga and went pretty large into it in recent months. It’s one of the rare times that people say “a big bad short is unfairly manipulating the stock” that’s actually true, and the evidence is laid out in public. My thesis is that RILY has been properly navigating their way out of the mess, and that every claim and prediction by the major short seller has proven to be false for a year now. It doesn’t mean they’re a secret powerhouse, as the swindle they got involved tore a big hole in this company. But they seem to be getting back in shape one week at a time. This was a 40 year trusted company, a $30 stock paying a reliable 5% yield before the fraud happened. They’ve come a very long way in recoverying so far, and if they can complete that task, this is some very deep value indeed. For bona fides, I was writing about this potential recovery back in Dec and Jan.

After a year in the doghouse, the beleaguered and heavily shorted RILY is started to break out from the bottom. Since then they’ve severed ties with the bad partner and have begun filing the postponed financials. They’ve done the writes downs and paid off old lenders. New lenders have come in and are providing both credit and equity investment. Every lender and bond has been paid in full and on time. Next week Riley is giving their first real investor update in a year, promising to reveal their plans to get back to business, similar to when the stock was trading $30+

Just remember the more it keeps dumping, the harder it will be to squeeze. Now you’ll have to deal with selling pressure of bag holders. Look for squeezes that are actively happening and still in an uptrend. For instance RILY still looks strong despite some pullback today. This is one that could squeeze farther. As soon as it starts to break below that upward trend line, get out of it and wait for the downtrend to be over

Oh, RILY is a fun one I've been looking at. It has a group of fairly high profile short sellers after it (Marc Cohodes et al.), got entangled in securities fraud legal proceedings after a *really* bad investment, and faces the prospect of bankruptcy after this year (10-Q report says they should get through this year - it's not audited though). The potential catalysts are essentially - cleared in ongoing legal proceedings involving the Franchise Group (their shit investment); obtaining enough cash and prospects of profitability after 2026. A brief rundown of how RILY got to where it is (see r/RILYstock for more recent news): https://www.institutionalinvestor.com/article/2cpgaejc45gocvoqb1ngg/corner-office/how-b-riley-garnered-the-biggest-short-interest-of-2023 Not a stock for the faint of heart, but will explode like crazy if it does escape bankruptcy and fraud allegations. My view is that it's unlikely RILY committed fraud, but the lack of due diligence and oversight is nearly just as bad; it's a coin flip. That said, short sellers have been trying to kill it for a while and haven't succeeded.

Covered straddles can be risky if the stock price moves significantly. What's your plan if RILY jumps or tanks? Also, 4% weekly return on the puts sounds high - make sure you understand the annualized implications and if that's sustainable.

Be warned; high volatility weeklies are a great way to learn discipline, and the way your learn it is by paying for that schooling dearly. One of my most awesome lessons was to see what falling off three standard deviations from the mean; got assigned at $18 for a stock that went to $5. Up to that point everything was going stupidly well and I was looking forward to see it fall, and that did it. I was going to splain standard deviations from the mean but you are better off googling "statistics standard deviation". If you are not familiar with the concept the rest of this will not make sense. So I had been wheeling RILY financial, it had been doing amazing for me, the stock was a $20 I think, I had a weekly put at $18 which I think was under .20 Delta, which in a very imperfect way it is taken to mean sub 20% chances of getting assigned. That Friday the stock went to $17, no big deal, switching to covered calls. But then the next week the CFO is put on leave, the FTC opens an investigation, clains of impropriety surface, the last few quarterly reports are recalled for review, and it quickly look like RILY is about to become insolvent. The company went from perfectly fine to about to go bankrupt in a few days. The stock I paid $18 was now worth $5 and looking like it would go down to $0. The thing about options is that what is highly unlikely (a stock moving from $18 to $5) is still possible, that was probably within 5 standard deviations from the mean, a very ridiculously small probability. Just about time you see some expert imploding is because of that; he didn't hedge for the possibility that there are outcomes that will be waaaaaay off what's normal. For us mere mortals trying to learn, because we don't see those often we don't even know that is something we need to be afraid of and hedge for.

There’s numerous dates and events and conditions. They postponed some SEC filings while sorting things out, and there’s also obligations to file certain things for NASDAQ listings, so each time they file a 10Q or 10k or quarterly it’s an “event”. There were two such deadlines for February and they successfully filed one ahead of the (extended) deadline and another is expected around Feb 14? maybe 17? They issue bonds, and each series has maturity dates. With those, as each maturity comes closer and their disclosures show they have the cash to redeem them, that’s a catalyst, or if they retire them early for a discount, that’s an event. Part of restructure they suspended their common dividend last year, which was sizeable. They also recently elected to suspend dividends on preferreds. Suspending dividend on preferreds is not a common thing but it’s within their right. They seem to have done it to reinforce their commitment to making good on their ongoing debts and maintaining healthy cash levels. Their lenders have them on something like a monthly (I think?) check in, so each month that lenders reiterate they’re happy is kind of an event. There’s pending sales of a couple of their troubled assets including the one they deemed worthless. I think it goes on auction soon, and during the restructure they kept something like a quarter of that, so whatever it sells for, they’ll see 25% of that. A private equity firm made an investment during this past year and there’s a rumored situation where that firm may buy out one of the lender’s debt position. On an ongoing basis there’s lots of meat for options experts to chew on. There’s lots of metrics showing large short interest and no shares to borrow at certain key levels like $5. Then you can see frenetic volumes on expiration dates creating closes of $4.99, that kind of thing. I’m aware that it’s common for people to whine that their favorite stock is being held down by anonymous boogeyman shorts. However I almost never do that. But in this case it’s not really debateable. The shorts are known and they publish what they’re doing and their actions are verifiable. They’re betting that RILY goes bankrupt and have priced it accordingly. If RILY stumbles, they win. But it’s coming on a year and their claims keep getting knocked down. I think they said bankrupt by April 2024?

Time for my biweekly chat on “grown up” penny stocks, ones that are acfually operating and viable, with potential to graduate. If you’re looking for two day ten-baggers, stop reading now. But these are ones that could conceivably double or triple or better within say a calendar year. They’re risky, yes, but they’re not roulette spins: * **BFLY Butterfly Network** sells a hand held ultrasound scanner. By putting ultrasound function onto a microchip, they brought the price down to a level where any nurse or doctor or even med student can have one in their pocket and just plug into a laptop. Competitor is around $10k, BFLY’s is $3k. BFLY integrates with clinic and hospital systems, so the patient data and scans flow seamlessly. All approved, tested, working. Released their 2nd gen product which has much improved image quality and it’s apparently selling well. * **SENS** Senseonic - similar to the meme GCTK that’s been PnD here a lot, but SENS is years ahead. SENS monitor is also long term, 1 year versus GCTK’s proposed 2 year. SENS completed all the testing and approvals that GCTK will need years to complete and SENS is already on to their third generation of product. Has actual products and revenues. * **STEM** integration of energy sources, including alternatives. Has been around for years, one of the survivors of the S-P-A-C era. Share price got destroyed when solar stocks did, then got destroyed again after the election. But their fundamentals haven’t really changed. Businesses and residents hate having high electricity bills, bills which are only going much higher as data centers and others hog up the available electricity. STEMS can thrive on that. Recent DD here says fair price is around $4.73, yet the stock is only priced at 0.59 * **RILY** a 30+ year financial company and distressed rollup specialist. They do financing and also buy weak companies to renovate and sell. They bought some trash from a con artist who is now headed to trial, blowing up their balance sheet. A crazed short seller has blitzed them with disinformation, driving the stock from $60 to $5. After a year of attacks, one by the one the short seller’s allegations have been disproven. The company is coming up on a year of being “clean and sober” financially. Their lenders remain steadfast and they’ve been acing their debt and filings. Strong potential for a squeeze this year.

RILY is a peak degen gamble next week for those of you who hate money. They have until 2/17 to meet compliance and are being priced in that they will not file 10Q in time resulting in another delay and likely getting unlisted. However, if they do file the 10Q by next week the stock should raise pretty dramatically and potentially cause a short squeeze. I’m going 5.5c 2/21. Don’t listen to me though all I do is lose money and it will probably not work xD

Being right and not going in heavier. I was shorting a stock called RILY and I only ended up allocating 7% of my portfolio to the short. I could have brought the allocation significantly higher and made so much more. Still, buying puts on RILY was one of my biggest return days ever. But I regret not sticking to my research and doubting myself.

37% short is very very high. However, there are so many stocks traded short heavily, such as RILY,BYND. What ate the other aspect do you look for when you find squeezable stocks?

Recently I was doing amazingly well with b. Rilley Financial, until all hell broke loose. Long story short early this year they came out of an SEC investigation with flying colors and pretty much exonerated, which send the stock flying from a low of $25 or so to a high of $58. With all the volatility I was doing weeklies and while keeping a low delta I was pulling around 1% a week. Heck my approach was conservative enough that I rode that horse from that $58 high down to $18 without being assigned. But then all hell broke loose again. The company suspended dividends after a loan that stunk of insider trading, the SEC came back with another investigation. RILY then recalled the most recent financial fillings and so far delayed the last two. The advisors and I think even their accounting firm dropped them as a client, and that send their financial backers and debt holders into righteous panic. The stock cratered from I had $15.5 puts when the stock was $19.20. That was close to a 20% price difference, with a very conservative Delta of around .10. Delta and statistical probability means nothing when the stock has a heart attack and drops to $5.51... Every option bought me $551 worth of stock for the low-low-price of $1,550, or an instant 64.45% loss. And do read the previous paragraph, it was easy to see that this was not just a temporary blip you could just wait for a recovery. But hey, half of those were on a taxed account so I do get a good chunk of capital losses to offset other option gains. Probability means something may be highly unlikely, but not impossible. You may think "oh, there is only a 5% probability of assignment and even if it happens it can be close enough that I just go from cash covered puts to covered calls". Well that black swan even took all my gains and put me well in the red for RILY. You can diminish some of that risk by either complex options chains, or good old diversification; do not let any company take an oversize slice of your options trades.

I know a bunch of people were posting loss-porn here 6-9 months ago with RILY, but I'm under the impression that we're finally ready to wind down shorts with a move higher. Buy-side volume has picked up significantly (check on-balance volume), while shorts have increased position size over the last month. Fintel says it would take \~18 days to cover based on average daily volume. We saw a downwards inefficiency/selloff, followed by an **upwards** rebound/inefficiency, into a downwards efficient/accumulation, upwards inefficiency, then further downwards accumulation settling at a higher low on progressively lower sell-side volume. Does anyone more well-versed have a reason they strongly disagree with the premise that we're due for at least some solid degree of rebound/short unwinding?

"Buying [$RGTI](https://x.com/search?q=%24RGTI&src=cashtag_click) based on Google’s quantum success is as misguided as believing every TikTok guitarist is the next Taylor Swift.

RILY CSPs. Those bastards dropped devastating news on 8/12 which caused the stock to drop 50% and it never recovered. I wanted out before the earnings report, and even e-mailed investor relations the week before to get the date for the ER because I wanted to close my positions before then, but all they said is "We will release the earnings with a press release". I knew the risks, but getting rugged premarket on a Monday morning was rough.
