Short squeeze coming

Yeah, I got in not to long after the did the initial release and now after missing US expectations... i've just decided to hold. I only have a small number a shares but I am down about 22%. They do pay a dividend so just going to hold.

Always thought Levis would be a good investment.....
So in fact they were my FIRST (way back)
Long before they ever were publicly traded one couldn't invest in Levis directly.....
So I would up investing in a company called Cone Mills (the folks who made their denim - as far as I could tell)


Never did ANY good with it

I do like this company too. They have some good stuff in their stores. Good looking jeans .

Bottom.... buy buy buy

$LEVI$ ??????????

Is it me or is worthless pos trading very peculiar ? In my expert experience most securities after their IPO usually either dips or goes up at least a handful of dollars, but this has opened and closed the same.

Bought the dip yesterday. Big things from here out!

wise words....especially when the most expensive jeans have the faded or poor dude look with holes at the knees



my concern that stockwatch says ''''website unknown..'''

Caution When A Rush Of IPOs Hit The Market $LEVI

It looks as if we are having a bunch of IPOs scheduled to hit the market very soon. Today, the highly anticipated denim jean manufacturer, Levi Strauss & Co (NYSE:LEVI), became a public traded company. There are several other popular companies that are also looking to come public very soon. Some of these companies include Lyft, Uber, Pinterest, Airbnb and Palantir. Very often the overall stock market will remain strong into these important IPOs. Usually, once these IPOs are released then the markets will usually stage a correction or pullback. Does anyone remember Blackstone Group (NYSE:BX). That stock came public in July 2007 and the market indexes topped out in October 2007. Now please understand, I'm not saying we are going to face the next great recession, but we could be in store for a summertime decline. Either way, when these IPOs come out in droves it is a time for caution soon.

lmao....10 to win

Volume slowing down, $23 probably as high as it goes for today

$45 by end of year

by prospectus... now at 20

They just said $20-21
A sucker is born everyday

Definitely possible, I’m thinking it’ll bottom at around 9 before moving up, but then again speculators can push it through the roof right at the open

I’m in at 10 when all the fanfare dies down. GLTA

could hit $11 in a week

Priced at $17, I’d like to see it go below $14

count me in....GO LEVI

This could fly tomorrow
