OldSwitcheroo Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 I'd be very careful, look at the figures since 2000 or so, they fluctuate wildly... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sirpepperoni Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 I've been considering investing for the last month or so, although I don't see much profit to be made unless you invest a substantial amount and can hold out for a long term return.

OldSwitcheroo Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 As you said, maybe you're not an expert at investing..... Just because there are sales of one element, doesn't mean the company value increases... Look at what happened after GTA IV. Share price was around $25 when released, by the end of that year, they were down to $6. GTA IV sales were good, no? As said, fluctuations. Sales of one game does not = increased share price. You'll see v short term gains in my opinion, but I'd be willing to ship them as soon as they start to drop a little. High Risk.

Will be interesting to see how it goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andreas Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 (edited) Look at what happened after GTA IV. Share price was around $25 when released, by the end of that year, they were down to $6. GTA IV sales were good, no? The share price was so high when IV was about to release, because EA was about to buy off Take-Two; the shareholders were against it, and they have invested a lot of money into the company to avoid the buy off. So, EA failed miserably in the end. Anyway, summer last year was the best time to invest into the stocks of TTWO. It was so low as not for years, so you could have made a lot of money. Although, you perhaps still could, just not as much. However, you should not invest into a company just because of one title. Yes, GTA is the biggest and most popular game series of Rockstar Games and Take-Two, and GTAV is even supposed to make most of the money this fiscal year, but you have to take a look at the other titles as well, not from Rockstar in this case, however, from 2K Games.

What it tells me, is that i would look to invest at the point they announce the next GTA title (next gen / GTA VI) I'm not an investor either but thats how investing is supposed to work, buy low, sell high. So it would seem best to invest some at the lower price then wait for it to increase in value and then this would be the time to sell... If I purchased $6000 worth, (1000 shares @ $6) then waited till it reached its peak (in this example $18.18) then sold 1000 shares @ $18.18 each then I'd have an increase of 66% minus broker fees etc. Thats a lot better, turning $6000 into $18,180 in the course of a few years over maybe $6000 into $6900 in say 3 years in the avg money mrkt acct. I know a lot of ppl that lost tons of $$ when WS went but that is the risk of investing and it might be better to sell then at a lower price than to lose ALL of your $$ IF the investment tanks.

SnapChap Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 (edited) I thought the same thing earlier, but without looking at figures I would have surely thought the best time to invest would have been the day before the GTAV reveal trailer.

Josh410 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Instead of investing in stocks, you should invest in silver and gold. That is what I invest. I made $300 in 1 month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumbo Cactuar Posted September 8, 2013 Author Share Posted September 8, 2013 ye the best time was when the price was at $6 you would have tripled your money by now, it could even go higher after sept 17th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
