Chad Beynon likes his firm's Neutral rating and $4 price target as an "entry" point for AMC Entertainment (AMC). He points to the company's balance sheet issues in the past and looks ahead to a busier film product in 2025 saying there could be "15% more films than 2024."======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about
Chad Benyon looks at expectations for the box office and gaming in 2025. He discusses the potential tariff impacts on Macau, saying current expectations are “too bottomed out”. His pick in the sector is Wynn Resorts (WYNN). He thinks that in 2025, box office debuts will finally rebound to 2019 levels. “The big thing here is the operating leverage,” he adds. He recently upgraded AMC Entertainment (AMC), despite saying the stock hasn't traded on fundamentals for a long time. ======== Schwab Network ======== Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

TG Watkins, Director of Stocks at Simpler Trading and Editor of the Profit Pilot website, joins us to review his technical outlook on a number of sectors including broad US market indexes, the cryptocurrencies, crypto mining stocks, the commodities sector, lithium stocks, uranium stocks, copper stocks, and regional banking stocks. We start with TG's assessment of the general US equity markets and chart levels, based on moving averages, where he expects support to come in for the next bounce. Then we reviewed the latest bullish speculation on tap in many sector of the stock market, commodities, and even a resurgence in the meme stocks and cryptoverse. While TG has doubts about any longevity in the meme stocks like Gamestop (GME) or AMC Entertainment (AMC), he remains constructive on the crypto leadership in Bitcoin and Ethereum. We also discuss how the crypto mining stocks are a mixed bag with Cleanspark (CLSK), Iris Energy (IREN), Marathon Digital Holdings (MARA) and potentially Cypherpunk Holdings (HODL.CN) (CYFRF) setting up well, while concurrently Riot Platforms (RIOT), Hut 8 (HUT), and Hive (HIVE) are still struggling. Shifting over to the commodities, and noting the big moves higher in gold and silver and copper, TG points to the lithium stocks as a beat down area of the resource complex that may have bottomed and started to move higher. With regards to the uranium miners he highlights the picture perfect setup on the chart of the Global X Uranium ETF (URA), with respect to the 50-day moving average and the cup & handle pattern within a cup & handle pattern, being very constructive. We also review the strength we've seen in the copper stocks, and in particular how he is reading the very big move we've seen in the copper seniors via the ETF (COPX) and how the pullback we are seeing today may just be a much needed rest. Wrapping up we talk about other beat down stocks and sectors that may be setting up for their next moves higher, referencing both Blink Charging (BLNK) and the SPDR S&P Regional Banking ETF (KRE).

PPI Initially the Producer Price Index (PPI) looked problematic as it increased 0.5%, which easily topped the estimate of 0.3%. Looking further into the report though, the March reading was revised from an initially reported 0.2% gain to a decline of 0.1%, which more than accounted for this month's beat. Looking on a year-over-year basis, PPI rose 2.2% and core PPI was 2.4%. While the core PPI increase was the biggest annual move since August 2023, I still don't believe it's at a problematic level considering the Fed's 2% target. CPI The Consumer Price Index (CPI) brought some positive news as the index grew 3.4% in April which was in line with expectations and better than the previous month's reading of 3.5%. Core CPI which excludes food and energy was up 3.6% and was below last month's reading of 3.8%. This was the lowest reading for core CPI since April 2021. Shelter continues to be the major weight keeping prices elevated as it was up 5.5% over last year and accounted for over two thirds of the growth in core CPI. Energy which was a major positive for the CPI numbers for much of last year has now brought some pressure to the headline CPI number as it was up 2.6% compared to last year. The easy comparisons from last year have disappeared and now I believe we will continue to see year over year gains in the energy component moving forward. Other areas that remained problematic included motor vehicle insurance (+22.6%), admission to sporting events (+15.4%), and motor vehicle repair (+9.8%). While there are some remaining negatives in the inflation fight, overall, I believe this report shows we are continuing to head in the right direction. Private Credit I have seen investors become more interested in the private credit space, but personally I have not invested any money in it, nor would I recommend my clients do so. Private credit is where nonbank financial institutions, like private-equity firms, make loans to businesses. It was essentially created to serve companies that were too big or risky for banks or too small for the bond market. The funds are generally illiquid, which means you could be stuck in an investment and if it goes south, you may have no other choice than to ride it out and hope it comes back. Also, since they rarely trade you don't really know what the loans are worth and have to rely on pricing from quarterly accounting estimates. The fees are quite high as they are in the range of 1.25%, which I would consider high for essentially a fixed income alternative. Unknown risks could also be developing in the space due to less regulations and limited oversight. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) recently released a report that stated with the recent increase in yields, more than a third of borrowers have interest costs that exceed their earnings. Pull all the info together and I'm comfortable not being in this investment. Meme Stocks Meme stocks are back in the news with companies like GameStop (GME) and AMC Entertainment (AMC) surging! AMC was actually quite smart and took advantage of the move to do a $250 million stock sale to raise capital. Like I said back in 2021, these moves are occurring for no fundamental reason. The fact that these are occurring because a guy that goes by the name “Roaring Kitty” posted an image of a man in chair leaning forward is just crazy. If you want to gamble on this stock just know that's all it is, there is no fundamental reason for the company's stock to be trading at these levels. It's also important to remember that last time the hype occurred the stock reached an intra-day split adjusted high of $120.75 per share and has been in free fall before this recent move as it touched a three year low of $9.95 per share. I believe the story will end the same way for many of these traders and for those that think they are sticking it to Wall Street, unfortunately it will not have as big of an impact as they think. Financial Planning: Best Withdrawal Rate for Retirement The 4% rule has been around for decades and states if retirees withdraw 4% from their portfolio every year, and increase the annual withdrawals by the rate of inflation, they are very unlikely to run out of money. This rule of thumb has been widely used but it is important to understand it has some pitfalls. First off, a 4% withdrawal rate is overly conservative in almost all cases. To be able to withdraw 4% plus inflation over a retirement lasting 30 years, the asset return needs to outpace inflation by just 1%. A 1% real return is extremely low. This is partly caused by the misconception that retirees need to have an overly conservative portfolio. Regardless of age, retirees still should allocate their assets to grow and outpace inflation. That doesn't mean they need to buy risky or trendy investments, but there should always be growth. Retirees are living longer and longer which means traditional “conservative” portfolios are actually riskier because they increase the chance of outliving money. Secondly, retirement spending typically doesn't maintain pace with inflation. In the first few years of retirement, people are more active and spending more, but as they age, they tend to slow down which results in lower levels of spending. This means it can be appropriate to start with a larger withdrawal rate followed by smaller inflationary increases over time. Because of this, a 5% or even 6% withdrawal rate can be used in retirement when paired with wise investment management. A withdrawal rate of 6% may not seem like much more than 4%, but mathematically it is 50% more which means substantially more retirement income, or being able to retire several years sooner. Stocks Discussed: Netflix (NFLX), Wayfair (W) and CVS Health (CVS)

JPMorgan Chase, the largest financial institution on Wall Street, reportedly requires its workers to give six months' notice before being allowed to leave for another job. A JPMorgan employee posted on the social media platform Blind, which allows career professionals anonymity, that the lengthy notice period may result in a new job offer being rescinded. The worker claims to earn around $400,000 annually in total compensation after accumulating 15 years of experience. The post stated that the worker was amenable to staying through the notice period but was worried that the new employer would rescind the offer and not wait for six months. Last year, workers at JPMorgan's India corporate offices reported that the Wall Street giant was raising its notice period to 60 days for vice presidents and below and 90 days for executive directors. Some financial professionals say that it is common for banks and hedge funds to include noncompete clauses in employees' contracts that prohibit them from being hired by a competitor for up to six months. The purpose of the notice period is believed to be to prevent staffing shortages when employees leave. However, it has been criticized as an example of an outdated "handcuff" policy that runs against the trend towards worker empowerment. And it may do more than just run against current trends. We have reported in the past on the FTC's increasing attention given to things like non-compete agreements and other employment contract provisions that tend towards the more employee-restrictive end of the management–labor spectrum. Will the FTC be putting JPMorgan in its crosshairs next? We'll see!JPMorgan's Six-Month Notice Rule Is an Old School ‘Handcuff'JPMorgan Chase ‘requires its tech workers give 6 months' notice before they quit'AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc. will appear in Delaware's Court of Chancery on Tuesday to face shareholders and a pension fund challenging the movie theater operator's attempts to convert its preferred equity units into common stock. A hearing for AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc. previously scheduled for Thursday was canceled, with a new one set for Tuesday, where Vice Chancellor Morgan Zurn will discuss "settlement scheduling and logistics." The proposed deal would let AMC move forward with its controversial conversion plan after two months of fast-tracked litigation. The preferred equity units (APE) are fractional units of preferred shares issued in a special dividend to retail investors who previously bailed out the company, but shareholders argue that the vote approving the deal wasn't conducted fairly and sidelines retail investors.Terminally online folks will remember, in early 2021, a group of retail investors on the social media platform Reddit, specifically on the subreddit r/wallstreetbets, organized a buying spree of shares in the struggling movie theater chain AMC Entertainment (AMC). The group coordinated their purchases through online brokerage platforms such as Robinhood, causing a surge in the stock's price. The phenomenon, dubbed the "Reddit rally" or "meme stock" frenzy, garnered widespread media attention and attracted more investors to join in the buying frenzy. The buying spree caused AMC's stock price to soar, rising by over 2,500% at one point. This Week in Chancery Court: AMC's Stock Conversion FightSamsung has been ordered to pay more than $303 million to computer-memory firm Netlist by a Texas federal jury for infringing several patents related to data processing. The court determined that Samsung's “memory modules” for high-performance computing infringed all five patents that Netlist had accused Samsung of violating. Netlist had asked for $404 million in damages. Netlist claimed that Samsung took its patented module technology after the two companies had collaborated on another project. Representatives for the companies have not immediately commented on the verdict.Netlist Inc has claimed that Samsung's memory products specifically used in cloud-computing servers and other data-intensive technology infringe upon the aforementioned. Netlist argues that its technology increases the power efficiency of memory modules and allows users to get useful information from vast amounts of data in a shorter time. However, Samsung countered this by stating that its technology works differently and merely achieves the same result and that, additionally, Netlist's patents are invalid. Allegations have also been made that other companies, including Google and SK Hynix, have violated Netlist's patented technologies related to the handshaking mechanism of various memory chips such as those used in enterprise cloud computing servers. Following the jury's verdict awarding more than $303 million to Netlist, the company's stocks rose by 21%.Samsung hit with $303 million jury verdict in computer-memory patent lawsuit | ReutersIn an update to the Federal Circuit judge competency story – Judge Pauline Newman, the Federal Circuit's oldest and longest-serving judge, is seeking to have her chief judge's complaint about her fitness to remain on the bench moved to a different circuit. The New Civil Liberties Alliance, which represents Newman, has filed a letter requesting the transfer to a potentially more neutral venue.

People are going back to the movie theaters, but still not back to pre-Covid levels. "Top Gun was a big blockbuster that brought viewers in the summer. Due to the lack of blockbusters in the last 3 months, move theater visits are down. However, during the Thanksgiving and holiday season, that could change," says Chad Beynon. Macquarie has an underperform rating on the AMC Entertainment (AMC) stock.
Online forums such as WallStreetBets became an international phenomenon during the COVID-19 pandemic. People of all ages and walks of life started to buy stocks. This led to what we now know as the meme-stock boom... and then its eventual bust. On today's special episode of Making Money With Matt McCall, Matt welcomes someone who was there from the beginning: Jaime Rogozinski, the founder of WallStreetBets. Matt asks Jaime how WallStreetBets started and how it got to where it was in 2020. But they soon move on to the bigger picture... like Jaime's views on where the retail investor will be a few years from now. They also take a deep dive into the poster child of the meme stocks, AMC Entertainment (AMC), and the tragedy surrounding another meme stock Bed Bath & Beyond (BBBY). They also discuss Jaime's take on what's happening with AMC and why he believes it's changing the investment landscape.
Yes, they've gotten a lot of flak. But could there be something more to the "meme-stock mania" crowd? In this week's Investor Hour episode, host Dan Ferris welcomes WallStreetBets founder Jaime Rogozinski back to the show. WallStreetBets is an infamous forum on social media site Reddit. The online community came to public attention in early 2021 when its denizens – often viewed as young, uneducated, and risk-hungry investors – crippled hedge funds by pumping up undeserving "dead stocks" like AMC Entertainment (AMC) and GameStop (GME). In this week's interview, Jaime gives his eye-opening perspective on the 2021 mania, saying there's more to the story than the negative picture painted by the media... It's a sophisticated way of doing risk awareness. But it's a conduit for people that start off in a risk-hungry environment and eventually move into a more responsible, traditional approach – but with a tremendous knowledge, I would say, even more so than the average person that starts off with lower-risk approaches. Jaime also shares what he has learned about investor behavior from watching the action play out across the Reddit board... When people go into the market and start off with a bunch of wins, it is very dangerous. It's much more dangerous than if they start off by losing money. And the reason why is because it kind of speeds up the learning curve. Somebody that loses money right away is forced to take a step back, slow things down, understand a little bit better, and not be so impulsive. Somebody that makes money without knowing what they're doing goes through these, kind of like, Dunning-Kruger effects... which basically is a way of saying people don't have the ability to measure their own abilities. He assuages Dan's curiosity on whether anyone from WallStreetBets has ever blamed him for their losses. And he shares stories of even meeting some of the members. Plus, Jaime's simple but sage answer to Dan's Investor Hour-standard "Final Question" will resound in your investing... and in your life.

Ben Silverman and David Trainer break down the recent market action and deliver their outlooks for the internet-driven space moving forward.

U.S. stock futures were mixed Monday morning as the major averages hovered near record highs ahead of the Federal Reserve's upcoming meeting. Dow Jones Industrial Average futures fell 40 points, or 0.12%, while S&P 500 futures and Nasdaq 100 futures advanced 0.04% and 0.32%, respectively. The S&P 500 finished at an all-time high on Friday as both the Dow and the Nasdaq closed in on their own record peaks. The Federal Reserve will begin a two-day meeting Tuesday, and while the central bank is not expected to make any alterations to its policy, traders will be paying close attention to its language around inflation and when it may begin to taper its asset purchase program. Recent data has indicated that the U.S. economy is regaining momentum but not overheating, taming worries about inflation and sending the S&P 500 to an all-time high. While the Fed has reassured that any spike in inflation would be transitory, policymakers could begin discussing the tapering of bond buying at the Tuesday-Wednesday meeting. Most analysts, however, don't expect a decision before the central bank's annual Jackson Hole, Wyoming, conference in August. Any shift in the Fed's dovish rhetoric could upend equity markets. The benchmark has climbed 13% this year while the Dow and the Nasdaq have risen 12.6% and 9.2%, respectively. Tesla CEO Elon Musk said his company will resume accepting bitcoin once there is "confirmation of reasonable (~50%) clean energy usage by miners." The electric-car maker in May stopped accepting the cryptocurrency nearly two months after allowing its use for payment. Going to the movies is exciting. But can it match the action by AMC Entertainment ($AMC)? Starting the year at just 2 a share, AMC stock has skyrocketed more than 36-fold to new all-time highs this past week. Some observers have expressed concern over the company's huge debt load ($5.4 billion in borrowings due one year from now or longer, as of March 31) vs. total assets ($10.5 billion) on the balance sheet. Earlier this year, WallStreetBets chat-room traders on Reddit joined in unison in buying shares and bullish call options in AMC stock. They did the same in a band of other companies that had been heavily sold short and struggling. If you were watching or trading GameStop (GME), you likely were also keeping close tabs on AMC Entertainment. And after you buy any stock with solid prospects, don't forget the golden rule of investing. Keeping your losses small keeps you in the investing game for the long haul. Yet at this point, AMC is sharply extended from an IBD-style entry point. So it is not a buy now. And it's still a great time to take some short-term trading profits. $ARKX $XOM $AMC $X $NUE $TSLA $AAL $BNGO $MARA $O $CRWD $FB $AAPL $FCEL $MGM $GOOGL $EZGO $SHOP $MTCH $DIS $PDD $ $TWTR $AMZN $ZM $PLTR $BFLY $ENZC $GM $ABNB $BUZZ $PTON $TDOC $DDD $U Bitcoin Ethereum, Stellar Control the Cash balance today and position yourself accordingly.

Treasury Secretary Janet L. Yellen secured a landmark international tax agreement over the weekend, one that has eluded the United States for nearly a decade. Persuading members of the Group of 7 advanced economies to agree on Saturday to a global minimum tax of at least 15 percent was intended to help the Biden administration win support for its U.S. tax increases. If enacted, the global minimum tax would require that companies pay at least a 15 percent tax on income, regardless of where they are based, making it less advantageous to relocate operations to countries with lower tax rates. In an interview on Sunday, Ms. Yellen acknowledged she stood behind Mr. Biden's proposal to raise the corporate tax rate in the United States to 28 percent from 21 percent. Anonymous Threatens Elon Musk in Video Telling 'Narcissistic Rich Dude' to 'Expect Us'. Hacking group Anonymous has warned Elon Musk to "expect us" in a video that accused the billionaire CEO of Tesla and SpaceX of ruining lives by manipulating cryptocurrency markets. The video was posted after Musk posted cryptic tweets on Thursday night suggesting he was ending his relationship with Bitcoin, prompting the cryptocurrency to tumble in value. "It seems that the games you have played with the crypto markets have destroyed lives," the person in the Anonymous video added."Millions of retail investors were counting on their crypto gains to improve their lives... Of course, they took the risk upon themselves when they invested, and everyone knows to be prepared for volatility in crypto, but your tweets this week show a clear disregard for the average working person." The stock market rally had a dramatic turnaround Friday, with the S&P 500 closing at a record high while the Nasdaq rebounded bullishly back above its 50-day line.Google parent Alphabet ($GOOGL), DocuSign ($DOCU), Broadcom ($AVGO), InMode ($INMD), and Dell Technologies ($DELL) are all near buy points. Google, Dell, and DOCU stock are already flashing early entries. Notably, all five boast multiple quarters of accelerating earnings and sales growth. Superior fundamentals. AMC Entertainment ($AMC), GameStop ($GME), Bed Bath & Beyond ($BBBY), BlackBerry ($BB), Workhorse Group ($WKHS), and other meme stocks had big to massive gains again last week, grabbing a lot of attention. AMC stock shot up 83% and somehow managed to close in the lower half of its weekly range. So did BB stock and WKHS stock.

Meanwhile, BBBY stock leaped 62% on Wednesday, yet finished the week up just 13%. GameStop climbed 12% last week. GameStop earnings are due Wednesday, with investors looking forward to what a revamped management team has to say about a possible digital-focused future. With the stock market rally showing some momentum, including growth names, perhaps investor attention will return to more traditional risky assets. $ARKX $XOM $TSLA $AAL $BNGO $MARA $O $CRWD $FB $AAPL $FCEL $MGM $GOOGL $EZGO $SHOP $MTCH $DIS $PDD $ $TWTR $AMZN $EBET $PLTR $BFLY $ENZC $GM $ABNB $BUZZ $PTON $TDOC $DDD $U Bitcoin Ethereum, Stellar Control the Cash balance today and position yourself accordingly.

AMC Entertainment (AMC) and GameStop (GME) have begun to rise again. David Trainer, CEO of New Constructs, discusses these recent increases. He states that it is a sentiment-driven rally that is going to end badly for a lot of individuals. He talks about how AMC and GameStop are priced very far beyond what they are worth.

The S&P 500 financial sector hit a record high, while expected growth in fuel demand boosted oil prices and helped lift the energy sector. The healthcare sector was dragged down by a weak profit forecast from Abbott Laboratories.

Inflation data, consumer confidence: What to know this week. Investors this week are poised to receive several key economic data reports offering the latest look at the state of inflation in the U.S., with investors and consumers alike jittery at the prospects of rising prices during the post-pandemic recovery. Heading into this week's PCE report, several other inflation prints have also exceeded expectations, pointing to an increase in both consumer and producer prices. Government data showed that headline consumer prices surged by a faster than expected 4.2% last month. Excluding food and energy, prices jumped 0.9% in April and were up 3.0% over the year. And producer prices also came in higher than expected, with core producer prices rising 4.1% in April over last year versus the 3.8% increase expected. These stronger-than-expected increases could portend some upside risk to this week's PCE print, some economists suggested. Investors shorting meme stocks GameStop and AMC Entertainment are estimated to have lost $754 million on Tuesday alone as the shares rallied, data from financial analytics firm Ortex shows. Shares in GameStop, which was at the heart of the so-called "stonks" retail trading mania earlier this year, rose 8% to nearly $225 in U.S. premarket trading on Wednesday, a day after rising 18%. Shares in cinema operator AMC soared 39%. Short interest in AMC is currently estimated to be 21% of free-float and in GME it is estimated at 17% of free-float, according to Refinitiv data. The meme stock mothership is blasting off again. Shares in videogame retailer GameStop GME, +16.34% were on a tear Tuesday, rising 16% and breaking above $200 a share for the first time since mid-March in a move that prompted retail investors who like the stock to rejoice at yet another surge for the heavily-shorted stock. AMC Entertainment AMC, +19.96% had an even stronger day, climbing almost 20% and adding to its staggering gains in May. Meme stocks have been showing signs of life in recent weeks with GameStop up more than 25% in May and AMC Entertainment soaring more than 60% in the same period as both companies have leveraged their massive and loyal social media following to execute new equity offerings and pay down huge debt loads. Tuesday's major gains came despite all three major indices DJIA, -0.24% SPX, -0.21% COMP, -0.03% ending down slightly for the day. For GameStop, Tuesday's breakout comes after weeks of concerted effort on message boards to get GME's Reddit army back on the march against hedge funds who they believe are still shorting the stock. Just last week, rumblings of another short squeeze on both GME and AMC were percolating almost everywhere on social media. $ARKX $XOM $TSLA $AAL $BNGO $MARA $O $CRWD $FB $AAPL $FCEL $MGM $GOOGL $RBLX $SHOP $MTCH $DIS $PDD $ $TWTR $AMZN $NIO $CHPT $GOEV $PLTR $T $NVDA $GM $ABNB $UONE $PTON $ $DDD $U $VIAC $VIACA Bitcoin Ethereum, Stellar XLM Control the Cash balance today and position yourself accordingly.

The shot heard around the world against the corporate elites represented by Wall Street stock market hedge funds was fired by Reddit users who organized to drive the price of many stocks up which insiders on Wall Street were betting on the opposite. These stocks included GameStop (GME), AMC Entertainment (AMC), BlackBerry (BB), and Nokia (NOK). The trading app Robinhood was at the center of the controversy for halting trading on these stocks prompting a lawsuit which joins the list of other lawsuits the platform has been a part of in recent years. Coverage of this story has brought everyone from YouTube personality Graham Stephan to wolf of wall street Jordan Belfort and even sports betting entrepreneur and media mogul Dave Portnoy to the forefront in standing up for the everyday American.

Die vergangene Börsenwoche war eine der turbolentesten der letzten Monate. Über Reddit, Discord und Twitter haben sich tausende Retail Investoren zusammen getan, um in den Brick-and-Mortar Store GameStop (GME) zu investieren. Der Preis der stark geshorteten Aktie vervielfachte sich daraufhin, was zu Milliardenverlusten für mehrere Hedgefundinvestoren führte. Aber nicht nur GameStop war betroffen, sondern auch andere Aktien, im Fokus von Leerverkäufern, wie Nokia (NOK), Blackberry (BB) und AMC Entertainment (AMC), wurden zu Zielen der Bewegung, konnten aber nicht dasselbe Momentum gewinnen. In sozialen Medien wurde unter Hashtags wie #EatTheRich von einer Revolution der Börse gesprochen. Auch Börsenpersönlichkeiten und Politiker wie Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez nutzen die Gunst der Stunde um die Entwicklung an der Börse in Frage zu stellen. Im Nachgang mussten Broker wie Robinhood den Handel von GameStop zeitweise einstellen, um weiteren Risiken vorzubeugen. In dieser Folge diskutieren wir die Gründe für die neuesten Börsenentwicklungen und diskutieren die wichtige Rolle von Brokern und Clearing-Häusern.
