"This is one investment that will require strong faith & patience of which will be tested many times, but I believe the long term rewards should far outweigh anything else in between."
"Options trading on Wave could be one of the reasons the stock is being held down.
It will be much cheaper buying the $25 calls on Friday if the stock is $18-$19 then if the stock is $22-$25."
"Occasionally, one of the "boys" (Tom or David Gardner, founders of Motley Fool) comes to a board and makes assessments, corrections, or comments. I read several months ago that they are very aware of WAVX and are possibly shareholders. I stress this is only what I read (on a board at SI) and it is ONLY a RUMOR. Would it be seemly to email them and ask them to comment on WAVX here? IF they are aware, and IF they are interested, their comments could be compelling to new investors here at MF....thoughts? "
"The shorts showed up the week before relisting and something tells me they showed up the week before Mega-News-Complex hits the street.
It is too bad that they made a killing shorting from $23 to $12 and we went right back on covering to $27.
I am certain this pattern was replayed at $24. If we get market order short sales and then panic selling and stops kicked out in the AM it will be deja vu.
Then they will cover as big money comes back in and we go back up to the 20s.
If we stay low then the play will be to load up on the calls for the next wave up.
It just irks my sense of justice and fair play when thereis such obvious manipulation. "
"The continuing efforts to launch e-cash and microtransactions just shows how much of a need exists. Maybe now with the N*Able/Wave relationship, Compaq will have the technology that finally clicks."
" There was a strong spike in volume in the low 14's which is an indication of strength. I personaly feel that this market may have reached support based on the spike. This was pure margin selling where tens of thousnds of shares were dumped at the market. The fact that some short players came in and covered at 14.5 help to give us some support. One player btrd was selling at 17 7/8 and 17 3/8 came in and cought about 5 thousand shares at 14.50 today. Nice trade on his part. As far as margin goes every house is diffrent. Every time I saw wave falling (which seemed alot lately) I lightend up my position a bit to avoid a call. Still have a little buying power and an ulser. Last time we bounced to 27 off 12.5. With the right news hopefully we can bounce back into the 20's. Hey weve all seen wave go up 15 points in three days. Lets hope it happens again for all are sakes..."
"Just a tip of the hat to the faithful, oh-you-know-who-you-are and forgive me if I didn't give you billing here.
Anyway, if you're a new follower of WAVX, you rarely will find a more thoughtful, intelligent, and articulate group of posters on a stock thread.
As someone once said, Peter Sprague has to read the bulletin boards to find out what Wave's doing next!
The tenacity, technical prowess, convergent and divergent thinking generated here never cease to amaze me. Others must agree, as so many have been willing to SLOG (there's that word again) through the trite, the insulting, and the downright false posts that at which slammers are so prolific.
They can't keep this board down. Yahoo went to heck, we ran to RB. RB died, now we're here. Finding links, emailing reporters and analysts, attending meetings, beta testing the products, sleuthing.
Anyway, before I get too misty, I just want to say thanks to the regulars.If you're new to this board, you'll see what I mean soon enough."
" I think it will happen again. The MM's are trying like crazy to get the stock down under 15 if they can before this Friday. They will even settle for 14 and 31/32nds or anything that will let them be under 15 and make options expire worthless.
I predict that come Monday the price will once again be upward bound. This week is the week to pick up more stock if you can"
"If the money chip is in the cpq computer, I would imagine a bunch of bundled content ie: music games and movies (if equiped with dvd) will be included. Although the movies may be ahead of there time. I can imagine with circuit city dropping out of that server side dvd movie rental/purchase option it should be easy to line up those content providers."
