Are you saying that the list of 201 USA stores closed in 2024, provided in the following link, is fictitious? Several of the comments to this data seem to bear out the veracity that these USA closures are real. Are you saying this is all made up?
As I've mentioned a couple times in this post/thread, I don't normally follow this topic/stock/company, have no vested interest in it one way or another (though I certainly fall on the side of anons and others who are standing strong and holding against the bevy of market manipulators who try to use the market as their own, personal, rigged game). A simple DDG search of GameStop store closures seems to also verify that many USA stores were closed this year. Your comments are that this is not true.
There's one thing wishing something wasn't true and another thing as to it actually being true or not. "Not USA stores.". Your claim is that the following list of 201 of them in the USA (of the purported 287 total store closures) is made up, never occurred. People holding this asset need to know the reality of the situation, not what someone wishes an "alternate reality" to be. It's not unusual for any corporation to shutter bricks-and-mortar locations based on current and projected future market conditions as they analyze their sales and revenue data, cost projections, etc, and move resources to more profitable areas. It's considered normal business operations and generally promotes an increase in holdings value over time if the CEOs projections were accurate.
Don't shoot the messenger here; I'm simply trying to share reported data that I know affects several anons here. If the following source is fictitious, made-up, not true and that, as you claim, "Not USA stores." is the reality, please verify your statement for the benefit of all interested parties here.
No dates on any of those store closures so it means nothing. How does a blog post made in January 2024 list all the 2024 closures?
Of course the recent msm article would include the German stores.
RC has been trimming the fat and closing non profitable stores for years now. Nothing new in your wall of 'Greetings fellow anons..I totally don't care about the gme but im very concerned blah blah etc' text.
I randomly checked about fifteen of the stores on that list - all closed. I suspect the list was started in January 2024 and is kept updated throughout the year to the present. Obviously you didn't bother to check this.
Look, anon, your schtick about all of the 300 store closures being shuttered being in Germany is false. You fervently want to believe in your fantasy so have at it. You can attack the messenger all you want here, but the fact remains that I've provided information, real data, to those who choose to consider it. Your implication that my stance is "blah blah", as you term it, is juvenile, and meant to throw shade on my intentions here. I assume this is based on the fact that you don't like the reality of these store closures - so much so that you literally told another anon that all those store closures were in Germany when they're not. Now you're admitting that they have been "trimming the fat... Nothing new...".
What is it you want here, anon? Any facts you don't like should not be shared? Any new disclosures, any new projections, from the CEO here should not be shared if they're not in line with what you want to hear? He's signalling that there will be more store closures coming, but you don't want this to happen? As a (former, currently inactive) investor myself I take in ALL data to keep a pulse on what direction firms I've invested in are moving, if I agree with the CEOs, how I think this might affect valuations, etc.
Personally I'm currently bullish on the market (with notable exceptions like healthcare), mostly due to the incoming political leader and administration. I have not studied the gaming market nor this GameStop firm, have read posts about it here, but I suspect at least some of the current downturn in sales and concurrent store closures has to do with the past four years of crushing inflationary pressure causing people's discretionary spending to be severely curtailed. Perhaps that's why the CEO has been vague about the number of upcoming store closures as he waits to see how Trump's first months and year affect his firm's market and future projections. Or he may genuinely just want to alter the layout of his company's holdings and segue into different products. Whatever the future holds it's my opinion that the more data an investor has, the better decisions they can make.
Yes, the Breitbart article has a negative slant to it, but it's incumbent upon us to pull out facts, real data, from information provided however they choose to portray it.
You can do whatever you want with this data - ignore it, fantasize it away in your mind and try to convince others it's not true as well, etc. Your choice, your consequences. Others here who have an interest in this can make their own decisions as to what to do with it.
Did they shut down 300 locations last year? as the article stated?
Not USA stores. They closed down stores in Germany couple months ago. Germany wasnt profitable for them.
