Results are finalized. This can resolves YES now

@PC If it doesn’t I’m never betting on a Barbie market again

Preliminary earnings are $366.4M vs $181.4M, so ~2.019x.

Barbie has legs!

@stevez gg Barbie. Quite annoyed that Barbie beat projections by so much

@PC f'real, I am not going to put nearly as much stock in studio forecasts after this. I get why they were bearish, I was too, but I still expected more accuracy from the pros.

@Jonagold Studio forecasts have never been incentivized to be maximally accurate. There are better sources available.

@chilli Are those sources free?

@chilli any of them have Barbie this high? I modelled comparables and couldn't find anything

@PC No this is still higher than expectations. But it was clear that it was going to far out gross the 70 million the trades were predicting if you search google, which is why I bet so heavily on the “will it be a historic weekend” markets.

@chilli well I knew that Barbie would 2x Oppenheimer on the weekdays, but NO just needed Oppenheimer to hit $50M for the weekend, which was right in the middle of the projection

Maybe other people knew something I didn't, but I thought this market was overpriced.

@SirCryptomind Welcome back my prophetizing friend.

How has this not resolved yet? Are we waiting till the end of July because @SirCryptomind has posted several days of 2x Gross amount.

@dagnazty My guess is that it will resolve with the numbers at the end of the month. Oppenheimer could potentially catch up and the number could dip back below 2x

Edit: There was a serious error in my analysis I posted previously (copy pasta missed zeros of the numbers in the original formula). Here is an updated analysis of why I am betting YES: https://github.com/JRPdata/wastebook/raw/main/2023-07-31-will-barbie-gross-2x-oppenheimer-do.docx

Deadline has the next weekend projection as 72 to 35. No the numbers for Tuesday-Thursday.

Here is the math with numbers through the past Monday and the next weekend projection:

(188,122,044 + 72,000,000) / (95,127,370 + 35,000,000) = 1.99898026065
🤣 I'm selling all my NO shares until getting more data.
