BravoThanks @MC. I will revise my figures again based on this "new information".
So, lets see.
Then we have Mercedes
- Volkswagen have said they're going to use 3 families of chips (from an article I posted previously today) and lets say that AKIDA is 3 out of 3 of the families of chips, forget erring on the conservative side.
- Volkswagen have 50 chips in their SUV (as per Venturebeat snippet below)
- 50 x 2,300,000 = 15000000
- Let's say Mercedes have 90 chips in their SUV's
- 90 x 900 000 = 81000000
So that means, Volkswagen plus Mercedes
81000000 + 15000000 = 96000000
PLEASE DO NOT RELY ON THIS AS FINANCIAL ADVICE BECAUSE I FAILED MATH AT SCHOOL.
Hey Bravo, your short changing your hypothetical / realistic equation.Thanks @MC. I will revise my figures again based on this "new information".

so these people borrow shares, sell them for cash and have to give the same number of shares back to the person, right? So these people need cash and are betting on lower rates to keep that difference, right? How dumb is that??It's very simple Sirod.
The shares they sell, are borrowed at a small cost or percentage.
The only way they can make money, is to dump them on market and then buy them back cheaper.
They make no money by selling them, as they don't own them.
The money they make, on returning them, is the difference in the sold and bought price.
If they are forced to buy them back at a higher price, this difference, is also theirs to bear.
The losses in short selling, are potentially unlimited, as there is no limit to how high a share price could go.
Obviously that wouldn't happen and either they would cover, or their broker, would force the close of their position.
Hope that helps.
It's basically like gambling with money you borrowed.
I don't think they have to sell them immediately. They borrow the shares and can sell them at anytime I believe. If the stock is in an uptrend can they hold the shares until they feel more secure to sell?so these people borrow shares, sell them for cash and have to give the same number of shares back to the person, right?

And in the meantime Ukrainians are dying and you all are winding yourselves up with imaginary insults. Have a cup of tea, relax and give thanks that you are all healthy individuals with the ability to be in control of what happens to you. Peace.No you listen you bell end. You were being and are a smartarse. I wrote “English please” to which you replied “YOU CAN TRANSLATE THIS YOUR SELF WITH 2 CLICKS”. I accept your forthcoming apology.

I always thought so too, but then this increase that we have now would be great, then you would have an enormous profit now, or am I misunderstanding that again? Or do we now expect that it will continue to rise like this? or how or what, now I don't understand it again, just tell me what has to happen for them to burn properly...I don't think they have to sell them immediately.

I'm not 100% sure about when they sell. But if the price goes up and they haven't sold the shares then they will ne even. If they sold the shares at $1 they would have to currently buy the shares back and lose 20%I always thought so too, but then this increase that we have now would be great, then you would have an enormous profit now, or am I misunderstanding that again?

I think many of you will laugh at me now
How long have I been trying to figure this out?

Yeah good call, and what about us all winding each other up with imaginary share prices. 10 x Microsoft? We’re still allowed to live.

Yes, they can sell when they want, but once sold, that's it.I don't think they have to sell them immediately. They borrow the shares and can sell them at anytime I believe. If the stock is in an uptrend can they hold the shares until they feel more secure to sell?
No Mws i am incredibly lucky to have been born and live in this amazing country called Australia. Its OK to allow people to get excited about what they think their future might hold even if you don't agree with them. Sometimes dreams are all people have.Yeah good call, and what about us all winding each other up with imaginary share prices. 10 x Microsoft? We’re still allowed to live. Are you posting from?
I was being facetious. This is a anonymous forum after all. Just a bit of winding down or up lol,after a hard days work. Brainchip’s s/p where it’s at now is a dream realised now (if I sold now) for my family. All the best BossmanNo Mws i am incredibly lucky to have been born and live in this amazing country called Australia.

Shorters "notionally" borrow N shares at the then current price of $X per share, for which they pay a smallish fee or percentage on top (up front?).I'm not 100% sure about when they sell. But if the price goes up and they haven't sold the shares then they will ne even. If they sold the shares at $1 they would have to currently buy the shares back and lose 20%
