July 24 (Reuters) - Shares of retail traders' favorite AMC Entertainment Holdings (AMC.N) soared on Monday after a U.S. court blocked the theater chain's stock conversion plan that risked diluting investors' holdings. AMC had told investors it was burning cash at an unsustainable rate and warned that an inability to raise capital could force it into bankruptcy. The company has filed a revised petition for the stock conversion plan addressing the Delaware court's concerns, CEO Adam Aron said on Sunday. The highly shorted AMC common shares were the most traded U.S. stocks at 9:41 a.m. "Trying to short AMC during a short squeeze is about as smart as burning money," said Matthew Tuttle, chief executive offier at Tuttle Capital Management, adding that there is "not much juice left in the squeeze."

July 24 (Reuters) - Meme stock AMC Entertainment Holdings (AMC.N) soared in premarket trading on Monday after a judge blocked the theater chain's stock conversion plan that risked diluting investors' holdings in the company. The highly shorted AMC common shares were the most traded across all stocks trading before the opening bell at 05:58 a.m. Preferred shares "APE" fell 2.8% to $1.75. AMC investors had sued the company in February, alleging a plan to convert preferred stock to common stock was enacted to circumvent the will of common stock holders who opposed the issuing of new shares. The company filed a revised petition for a stock conversion plan addressing the Delaware court's concerns over other shareholders, CEO Adam Aron said on Sunday.

Among other highly shorted meme stocks, Koss Corp (KOSS.O) climbed 9.5%, Bed Bath & Beyond (BBBY.O) reversed course to slip 1.3%, while the Roundhill MEME ETF (MEME.P) rose 4.2%. "Luckily, this go around is not due to meme investors, but an actual tangible fundamental event," said David Wagner, portfolio manager at Aptus Capital Advisors. SOURING SHORT BETSWhen there is a rush of demand from short sellers looking to exit their bearish bets amid a rise in a stock's price, it pushes prices even higher, resulting in a short squeeze. Another favorite among retail investors - Carvana Co (CVNA.N) - jumped 22% after the used-car retailer said it expects a smaller core loss in the current quarter.

According to the complaint filed in federal court in Oakland, California, Rogozinski applied to trademark "WallStreetBets" in March 2020, one month before his ouster, when the community reached 1 million subscribers.
