As the IPO’s continue to come out, and market caps continue to fall, it got me thinking. How cool would it be to own 100% of an SOI? I mean really, take a moment to let it digest, you would own EVERY share available. Is it just me, or does that not sound freaking awesome? If I was able to completely liquidate my sportfolio and buy players for the price they are at now, I could own 100% of either TMAC, DNCN, NASH, ODEN, AMRE, DIRK, PYTN, DMAC, BSAN, BOSS, or JHAM. That being said, they aren’t the most desirable of SOI’s and I know selling everything and buying all the shares at the prices they are at now is impossible, but still, I wouldn’t mind being the sole owner of BSAN, BOSS, or JHAM.
I sit here and look at the IPO list and pray that the market continues to drop as we get to my next favorite IPO, MEGA (Calvin Johnson). If we get to this point, and the market continues downward, I can easily see him coming out below $3,000. Mark my words; if this is the case, I am going for the gold. Maybe not every share, but at least 95% and just watch the others trade hands. The downside to this obviously is you become extremely illiquid. If you ever change your mind and want to go elsewhere you would be screwed, I would be screwed. If MEGA went out and tore his knee apart I would probably lose all my money. But in my opinion, it would be well worth the risk. I mean, seriously, how cool would that be! Sole owner of Calvin Johnson! I love it!
A much easier way to accomplish this would be to team up with one or two other guys and collectively get ir done. There are many trust worthy guys on the Nation, plenty of which I would venture into a project like this with. Why not give it a try? Because you can lose all your money? Eh, maybe, but if you haven’t noticed the market is falling anyways, might as well have some fun with it while you wait for it to come back up.
Maybe it is just a pipe dream, but I am 100% serious in this. If MEGA comes out with a market cap below $4k, I am going to try my best to sell everything I own and deposit more money in what will be a legendary quest. It may not happen right away, it may not even happen quickly, and it may not even happen with MEGA. But one of these days, I am going to own AT LEAST 90% of an SOI and it going to be even cooler than the first time slubs posted on the forums.
