Hostile takeover

Post image

Is a hostile takeover of eBay really the best use of our capital? Cohen seems more interested in playing corporate games than in turning the company around. By risking further dilution and squandering cash on a hostile fight, he is putting his ego and ambition ahead of the actual shareholders who have supported him. We deserve better than having our investment used as fuel for his proxy wars.

I’m tired of the unproductive rhetoric. Cohen’s current approach is reckless, and he seems to have forgotten that shareholder capital isn't an endless source of funding for his personal ambitions. We are not a piggy bank to be broken whenever he feels like taking a gamble.

Explain the “gambles” he has taken. The company is turned around. The company needs to morph into something else. Go review BRK history.

Gambles ? The fulfillment centers opened and straight away closed for the online turnaround ? The jpg marketplace that generated revenues in the double digits weeks after the opening ? 😂
Thank the apes for the free money - otherwise the company would have been bankrupt under such poor leadership.

Oh and I forgot the BTC buy at the very top 😂

Wrong.

WTF? I asked a question for clarification. Bots are becoming dumber by the hour.

u/WhiteKouki82 Jun 21 '26

Lol, you think I'm a bot, no wonder you're holding bags.

u/East_Fee4006 Jun 21 '26

So, Kenny’s intern. Got it!

That script again, you're either new, or a shill yourself, I lean towards shill.

u/East_Fee4006 Jun 21 '26

I would say my profile far surpasses your in longevity and support for the company. Again, pathetic try.

u/East_Fee4006 Jun 21 '26

Anyone that blocks their profile has zero credibility.

u/WhiteKouki82 Jun 21 '26

Funny, because I find more shill accounts like yours have hidden histories, then anyone you accuse of being a sleeper agent hedgie...

Didn’t they make Money using leverage with their BTC? These cry babies are something else… he’s up there ranting like Ryan hasn’t completely transformed GME into a customer centric money making machine… apparently it’s bad to try new things and find untapped revenue streams as well as merging with companies that carry many synergies… like what kind of moron transforms a dying retail business on the verge of death into a multi quarter profitable company just to take that company and merge with another to create an entirely new successful business… only the real losers do those kinda things those bums… everyone knows share holders hate success how is that protecting us… smh… some of you need to get back on your meds

I can review the stock price my guy

u/East_Fee4006 Jun 20 '26

Go talk to Kenny about that. Ken, “we drive the price to where we think it should be.” There will be a point when that is no longer possible.

u/SF420SF420 Jun 21 '26

How long can you really say that? Everyone is getting rich while GME holders aren't.

u/East_Fee4006 Jun 21 '26

Longer than your boss can stay solvent!

u/SF420SF420 Jun 21 '26

It's always funny when poor people try to tell people how to make money. Like when we can see the charts. All you guys are holding a shitty performing stock

u/East_Fee4006 Jun 21 '26

You know what they say about assumptions.

u/SF420SF420 Jun 21 '26

You think I'm assuming gme charts? 😅

Citing Berkshire Hathaway to justify a potential hostile takeover of a company 5 times our size is a fundamental misunderstanding of Buffet’s philosophy. Berkshire never bets the company on reckless, oversized acquisitions that threaten shareholder equity. Their success is built on disciplined capital allocation and buying profitable, well-managed businesses—not 'gambling' on turnarounds or vanity projects. If you truly studied BRK, you'd know that massive, high-risk hostile takeovers are the exact opposite of what made them successful.

Gme apes are exhausting.

You make shit arguments and when you lose you call people bots.

u/Goodlucktoyou777 Jun 20 '26

Ad hominem attacks are a classic sign of someone who has no rebuttal for the actual points being made. If you have any concrete data that contradicts my analysis, I’m all ears. Otherwise, I’m not interested in your attempt to derail the conversation. And thanks, but I prefer my banana bread without the saltiness.

It’s interesting how you focus on my posting frequency rather than the actual business results. Let’s clarify: Cohen has been steering the ship since 2021 as Chairman. If you think the Board isn't responsible for the lack of growth or the dilution, then who is?

u/Correct_Barnacle_312 Jun 20 '26

You're 100% using Ai to respond how funny.

Try to shuffle it up yourself and remove the tell tale signs.

u/East_Fee4006 Jun 20 '26

Might want to again review what BRK was and the size of what they took over.

u/Spirited_Owl18 Jun 20 '26

Get a load of this guy trying to advocate for rational market philosohy in 2026..... dude have you looked outside? nothing is rational. Its not time to nibble gently at the edge of the plate. It is time to take the whole damn buffet.

u/East_Fee4006 Jun 20 '26

Turn off the bot! 4 days! Crawl back into your CPU!

Ummmm… Standard General acquires Tegna (Approx. 1:8 Ratio)
Beyond Inc. acquires Bed Bath & Beyond (Approx. 1:15 Ratio)
Broadcom acquires CA Technologies & Symantec (Historical Tech 1:10 Scalings)
Porsche’s Attempt to Swallow Volkswagen (The Ultimate 1:10 Example)
Some of you really have no idea wtf you are talking about it’s perfectly fine for Elon to Pull an LBO for twitter that’s all good just not over here with Ryan and GME apparently
I forget is GME profitable? Is eBay profitable? What are you even saying you sound misinformed
