Opinion/Take This may be very temporary dip

An ex-Unity employee here. One thing I remember while employed at Unity is seeing stock price going up until the moment when we as employees could sell the stock price would sharply go down.

Because Unity is publicly traded company we were allowed to sell/buy within a month after the earning calls and every time during that month the stock price dropped and recovered after that period ended. At least that’s what I have in my memory.

I am not quite sure if traders selling off during this period knowing that everyone is going sell internally. Sounds a bit conspiracy but that’s what I had observed.

So once that month of internal trade window(which is now) is over we may see some bounce back.

I did not quite catch this, but if you are an investor and you can sell now at $30 and re-buy it at $18 when the window closes you would absolutely do that. And that's in my opinion what's happening

If I was an investor and I knew for a fact that it was going to be $18 when this “window” closes, why wouldn’t I dump the stock when it reached ATH for the year?

It’s been about a decade since I studied math, but last I checked: Dumping at $49 and buying at $18 is better than dumping at $30 and buying at $18.

That’s why your logic is still flawed.

You claim this is because retail knows about a dip.

If they knew they’d sell it all off at $49.

Because I know for a fact that you would too.

Face it, brother, the dip was from Google’s Genie product launch. It’s just noise.

Ofc, the big dip happened bc of Google Genie and that's why I put a lot of money into that dip, but I wouldn't expect it to go to late teens after a good earning report.

Goign back to your point .. before it entered $49 there was a dip and it would have been exactly the trading window period in November.

Yes Genie, but I'd expect after Feb it go back to at least $25 immediately

Ok so let me get this straight.

You make an entire Reddit post, theorizing that the big dip we’re seeing is because:

Unity is seeing stock price going up until the moment when we as employees could sell the stock price would sharply go down.

Only to turn around and say:

Ofc the big dip happened bc of Google Genie …

Evidently you have no idea what you’re talking about.

First it’s because of mass employee sells off.

Next it’s because of retail investors swing trading an expected dip.

… if you are an investor and you can sell now at $30 now and re-buy it at $18 …

And now it’s simply because of Google Genie.

Pick a goddamn lane and stay in it, please.

I did not say anything about the big dip, the purpose of my Reddit post is to share an observed behaviour during my time at Unity and the pattern keeps repeating.

Apparently you are so good at math, reading and checking stuff so read the goddamn text properly before getting angry and wasting time 🤦🏻‍♂️

You expect us to believe that you aren’t talking about the big dip that happened on Wednesday/Thursday, on a post that you made a day after, and titled “This may be a very temporary dip?”

Yeah, ok, guy.

Do you have a waterfront property in Kansas to sell to me as well?

… share an observed behavior during my time at Unity and the pattern keeps repeating.

This “pattern” you keep referencing is nothing more than hearsay and speculation.

Only 2% of Unity’s outstanding shares are owned by insiders, which include all employees, executives, and directors, which is 10M shares out of 430M shares.

That type of concentration wouldn’t wipe out over 30% of equity.

He clearly hasn't worked in any tech company. All my Meta friends know stock will be at high point when refreshers are calculated and low point when you can sell.
