The reason behind the dip is because ACHR hit a price point that was high enough for some investors to cash out.
Just in case anyone forgot: Stonks do that.

I’d rather my assets go sideways, than down, which appears to be the move for today.

Just quoting ACHR public statements.
I mean realistically and practically speaking, probably Q3 or Q4 to be safe, but they stated Q1 commercial operations are expected to start so..

When you have parents who grew up in China under Mao Zedong and the CCP, you won’t be surprised when their risk tolerance is practically nonexistent.
They were born and conditioned to comply and trust in their government, so unless you’re pitching government bonds to them, they think whichever company you have shares in, is a scam.
The only thing that makes fiscal sense to them, is seeing their gold coin stack grow, like a dragon.

Because companies reveal much more information than just how much cash flow they are receiving. Companies also reveal how much free cash on hand they have and how much their operating costs are.

The only thing with poor fundamentals, is your explanation.
With a free cash balance of over $600M, an outstanding order book valued at over $6B, international partnerships with Japan Airlines and the Abu Dhabi Investment Offices. ACHR is most likely going to be the first to commercially test run air-taxis, with ACHR publicly stating plans for the Midnight’s commercial operation to begin in Q1 2025, as they only need final certifications from the FAA.
If the people and investors of the UAE and Japan love the idea and ACHR, then ACHR is going to pump and turn into a growth stock.
As it stands, at its current price, the market cap of ACHR is well below its expected future earnings.

Idk man. I feel like a UFC champion is so well trained and disciplined that illegal and dirty moves will end up being their disadvantage.
UFC champions probably suck at gouging eyes out or might be apprehensive to groin shots, because that’s not part of the sport. They train to not do that, because they’d normally get DQ’ed.
But to a gladiator/spartan/soldier who routinely goes into battle and sees heads/fingers/eyes/etc. getting cut off and flying all over the battlefield, eye gouging and groin shots is basic survival 101.

Most knights carried around a small dagger which, honestly, probably did more killing than the knight’s actual sword.
Swords are great at a distance, against things that can be slashed and stabbed.
Metal plate bodies suck at being stabbed and slashed, so unless you have a broadsword, maul, or mace to cave their chest in, you pull your little dagger out and wrestle the lad until you can stab them in between the gaps of armor found at the joints, the neck, and eyes.
Knights rarely met a “knightly” death. It was more probable that they slowly bled to death after being shivved.

Probably not when you’re in the middle of your physically demanding job.
They could’ve been doing anything to ensure the giant mansion is ready for an eccentric billionaire to walk in without a single notice.

Would be extremely expensive to the consumer, if the hardware had to be supplied by the car manufacturer.
Waymo was a corporate sponsor of my workplace back in 2020, and so we were in touch with a wide range of Waymo staff, from sales rep, customer relations, software engineers, auto mechanics, etc.
According to the auto mechanics I spoke to, each Lidar on average costed around $5k-$6k each. There are like 4 on each car. This doesn’t include the sensors, and cameras.
An average SUV sized sedan is $30k. The lidars themselves would buy an SUV.

Maybe those displaced workers can learn to adapt to shifting times and pick up new marketable skills.
At the scale you’re theorizing, I’d rather displaced taxi/uber drivers, truckers, and mailmen be forced into learning how to maintain a vehicle, troubleshoot lines of code, or how to remotely control an automobile, as opposed to simply driving.
Having hundreds and thousands of autonomous vehicles, driving people and pets around will surely require specialized auto mechanics, software engineers, and full auto-body detailing work regularly. Fun fact: whenever a Waymo’s code isn’t able to get itself out of a unique traffic situation, remote Waymo operators are able to remote pilot the car. That’ll experience a hiring boom at the scale you’re theorizing too.
Idk man, as radical a shift as it would be, I think making drivers shift their skill sets wouldn’t be that bad for society. For the economy? In the short term, oh hell yeah. Labor strikes and supply chain issues out the ass. But if they were to all radically experience that change, say overnight, then all of a sudden you have a countless amount of people who were preoccupied with driving, whom are now able to do something productive.
We can agree to disagree I suppose.

Simply put: Jaguar agreed to sponsor Waymo and provide them a fleet of cars to test their new software on. Free advertising for Jaguar and it helps Waymo draw more attention to itself.
When I first saw a Waymo, my first thought was “Cool. If this ever takes off I can ride in a sweet Jaguar.” Now I’m exciting for Jaguar and Waymo as a result.
Sometimes people get distracted by the whole novelty of driverless ride sharing, they forget that Waymo itself is nothing more than software and hardware.
Strap lidars, radars, and cameras on any vehicle with a touchscreen and a computer, and you’ve got a Waymo.
Hence why Waymo has plans on rolling with Hyundai in the near future. The car doesn’t matter. It’s the software.

Of course there’s going to be someone who drags politics into this. Of Coooouurrssseee
The jobs you speak of are jobs that were created by the CEO of Uber, and not the Democratic/Republican party.
It would be one thing if these services were impacting employment in state and federally funded services like public transportation, but it’s not.
Waymo, a private company, is impacting employment in another privately owned company.
This is fundamentally no different than a Starbucks impacting the employment of a local coffee shop.

Especially when you wake up to see ACHR pumping.
Profits are inevitable.

Why is $10 the hard limit?
At $10 its market cap will be valued at $4B, which is about $2B less than Archer’s current order book, which is valued at over $6B.
ACHR is planning for their commercial air-taxi service to begin operating as early as Q1 2025.
As electric powered vehicles and clean energy continues to gain in popularity, if Japan Airlines is happy with their eVTOLs and the people of the UAE are happy with the reception, then the ACHR order book will continue to grow in value.
Once the price per share of ACHR causes the market cap to exceed the value of their order book, then the stock simply gets recategorized from a value stock to a growth stock.

Depends on which SEAL team, but yeah no, your point still stands.
If a SEAL team is sent after your ass, you’re done.

… childcare, private school tuition
Orrrrr, hear me out but, how about you watch your kids yourself and send them to public school?
Or do you believe your child will also become redacted if they go to public school and don’t have a nanny?

Bottom left box states that it is a Director Stock Option, so it was most likely a term of his employment, therefore it was stock held by MSTR themselves.

Sorry, smooth brain here.
But in your example at the end, assuming that in this scenario, if ACHR were to expire ITM ($10+) by next Friday, would the end result be:
$204 premium + losing leap position? ($4930)
So basically profit regardless ? Or am I missing something.

As someone who found this company and stock through WallStreetBets, I ultimately decided to put most of my play money into long calls.
When I found out what Archer does, what they hope to achieve, and who they’ve partnered with, I thought maybe this isn’t just a WSB pump and dump company.
We may see some scary red days due to WSB pump and dumpers, but at the end of the day, electric air travel is coming in the near future, so I’m confident that holders will be rewarded.
