Shintaro Tabata's interview posted on YouTube has become quite a hot topic. It's a discussion with investor Testa about MetaPlanet stock, and there were some very candid comments exchanged.

First, Tabata's analysis was impressive. He described the MetaPlanet stock chart as "a slow, steady decline," pointing out that this is a typical situation where individual investors who can no longer tolerate the decline are gradually cutting their losses. Since they're being forced to sell due to margin calls, the stock isn't dropping all at once but continues to fall gradually.

Testa fully agreed. However, since he has many followers, he seems reluctant to speak openly about it to avoid upsetting MetaPlanet believers. But when Shintaro Tabata said, "He's saying something really correct," it seemed to lighten his mood a bit.

Another point Testa emphasized was the discomfort with MetaPlanet surpassing the market capitalization of McDonald's and Tokyo Metro. Even those who don't focus on fundamentals find this divergence too extreme, and they judge that holding long-term carries a high risk of further decline.

Meanwhile, Shintaro Tabata announced last week that he bought 30,000 shares of MetaPlanet at 307 yen each. It’s not just criticism; he seems genuinely interested in becoming a shareholder and engaging directly with management. He's even proposing a YouTube interview with CEO Simon Gerovich. He's showing a stance of not just being an outside critic but actively voicing opinions from within as a shareholder.

This interview video has already surpassed 10,000 views within a few hours of release, and discussions about MetaPlanet stock are likely to heat up even more. The market's attention is increasingly focused on this situation.
