WW
WW International, Inc. Common Stock
stock NASDAQ

Alright jungle. Trust this place more than others due to being closed. Someone help me out, tell me actual facts that are good about the current situation. This is how I see things currently:
Remember the oversold airplane analogy? Where no one sold the ticket for under $10,000, $20,000, phone numbers? Well, the airline (Gamestop) is issuing tickets (stock), getting the money instead of the passengers (dumbassesAPEs that kept company alive and out of ToysRUs, Blockbuster, Sears, Radioshack, etc. mass grave).
Not only does this drain squeeze, it devalues the stock I've held. There were 290,000,000 shares outstanding in 2022, and 395,000,000 as of Jan 1 2025. So "DRS the float" is worthless attempt now also. Actually had hope for that one. Add in the convertible bond, and it gets worse.
"Gamestop has money to do things now!" So what? I wanted MOASS. THE MOTHER OF ALL SQUEEZES. I wanted the 400% VW squeeze to be dwarfed. Not billions of dollars in a bank for possible returns in some future while WW III and The Great Depression II keep trying to make headlines. Not yet another nothing burger like NFTs... remember those? Remember Gamestop was going to be the leader in NFTs? Yeah.
Park the arcade video next to NFTs, and poo chairs, and selfies with Icahn, and gorillas, and sticky floors - what's an actual reason for the stock, my investment, to significantly rise?

Python. Literally just Python. Get good at working with data and plotting quickly (ie pandas, matplotlib)
Elements of Statistical Learning, Options, Future and more Derivatives are two good books to read after your first year / during. Make sure you spam apply to spring weeks - having one or two coding projects can really help with the interviews! A lot of quant firms offers springs, and WW maths has a lot of them come to the careers fair so it’s a good chance to chat to recruiters
