yep....in order for it to be a true "parlay" we need one of our original picks to wrap up lol....then things will pick up considerably here as we look for an ideal candidate for wave number two....
Dude, this board is reflecting the slow progress at the justice level regarding unwinding, reorganizing, prosecuting and finalizing the many bank BK issues. There will be movement when this ice flow thaws.
good possibility...imho
SIXOQ vs SIXFQ ( FQ is the common )
What am I missing here with just grabbing up as many Pref SIXOQ that I can?
Anyone else following Six Flags?
Is this a mistake? currently .21 x .23 in SIXOQ
Cheers and thanks.
LEH caused my 'loss of faith'. Good luck to you all that are still believers!
Well some surely do but some don´t
The Q's suck! ~IMHO
CBCGQ looking great for next week. Had a beautiful close, HOD .024.
MESAQ starting again. Next leg up should take it over .20 IMO.
A few to watch for possible future Q plays....

I think I may have to get on the ball. I've been so tied up with getting the yachet ready for the launch, keeping up with ordinary conflict, etc.
I can't wait until I can yurn a prolific corner along the line, but if I don't address the issues at hand, I stand to lose more than it's worth even as I watch you guys chat and get rich.
thanks to all of you whom have been and have become my friends.
For the time being, I have to perform at my level. I sorta kinda apologize for not contributing much input anywhere, fwiw.
That's what I missed. Thanks for the reminder!
Got Parlay? should be in my sig file.
LMAOFFFF !!!! next time take advantage of free advertising, for the team !!!!!

VSTNQ MOR came out yesterday, pps up over 6% with HOD $1.26
MESAQ has some hearings coming up and a MOR due out at anytime now.
PALM: Death watch?
Possible BK prospect in a year? Hopefully we'll have some WAMU cash by then.
http://www.thestreet.com/story/10706959/1/palm-placed-on-death-watch.html
VSTNQ HOD now 1.19, there must be news coming, up 20%.
I believe the MOR has been leaked, I do not know this to be true, but, I'd bet on it.
I can't tell you how sick I am of seeing the C/Ts around a quarter.
They should be at LEAST un buck!
wamuvoodoo says this is gonna cause a major explosion !!!
Lehman Says Unsecured Claims May Fall to $260 Billion (Update3)

http://www.businessweek.com/news/2010-03-29/lehman-files-progress-report-analyzing-65-000-claims-update1-.html
I'm good with that!
UNDERTAKER: 18-0 guess who's next?????
WAMUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUQQQQQQQQQQQQQQ !!!!!
Anybody join in on MMPIQ ? This has not received much attention yet, but could have serious potential. Some basic information below.
1)Recent filing indicates over $200M shareholder equity (Meruelo Maddux Properties Inc, 3/18/10 8k bottom of page 90).
2)Equates to over $2/share ($200M divided by approx 88.1M shares).
3)Principles Meruelo & Maddux own over 50% of the total shares.
4)Taylor/TAM Fund own over 13% of total shares (many bought after BK)
5)John Maddux (President/COO) acquired 502,679 shares at .10. After BK, form 4 filed on 3/31/09.
6)With approx 63% of shares "locked up", this leaves approx 32.6M shares "max" available.
7)This Company is one of Los Angeles largest property owners & could have many eyes on this for submitting enhanced plans after the exclusive period ends.
8)Current Debtors plan submitted is not yet confirmed by BK Court, indicates equity after BK, but based on plan guidelines with owning existing equity. This plan currently discriminates against small holders, but I do not believe a BK Judge would confirm in the current format. Further hearing on this plan is scheduled for 3/31/10.
With the Insider holdings, I believe this could develop into a similar situation as General Growth Properties (GGP), Fremont General Corp (FMNTQ), Pilgrims Pride (PPC). Looking at FMNTQ, it has approx 82M shares with approx $100M equity & has increased over 50X over the last 1.5 years. When FMNTQ exclusive period ended, some enhanced plans by others were submitted which are beneficial to existing equity (I believe this may happen with MMPIQ soon).
Chart link below. Float appears to be tight as evident on price spikes in January & March with not much volume. Recent trading activity is on very small volume & still appears someone is trying to keep the price down with small sells (question trading between themselfs to promote selling, while they accumulate?). Note: Currently there are some Bashers on the MMPIQ board that confirm there is value, but is trying to promote selling while he accumulates.

speaking of VSTNQ..... maybe we should forward this to wamu's counsel for the EC, and tell him to blot out VSTNQ, and insert WMI. could be a good template for him to use.
may have to consider something to this effect with lehman entities as well !!!!!
http://ih.advfn.com/p.php?pid=nmona&article=42133546&symbol=VSTNQ
VSTNQ just keeps moving up. Up over 9% again today. Opened slightly above yesterday's close and never went below it. Very steady all day. Nice buys @ .90 in the last five minutes.
Q's heating up a little bit today. My two favorites are of course MESAQ and FGOCQ. CEMJQ, WAMUQ, and even the Lehmans are doing better today as well.
I hear ya... slow week... and a lot of holding your breath!
It's been an non-growth week for the Q's I'm following.
I'm going to be off line for most of the next 2 days.
Due to the intense and thorough interest in WAMUQ, WAMPQ, and WAMKQ that team of board members have assembled some great BK information.
I'll put them together in the ibox here over the next week.
What I have learned lately:
Paying Q's means you have to be able to hold your breath underwater for several minutes! Like WMI stocks this week and last!
But when we come up for air! Yeah baby!
Keep HOPE Alive!

How to find Bankruptcy as it happens:
At this point it appears that nationwide BK filings can be found on an hour by hour basis by
going to: http://www.uscourts.gov/courtlinks/ (Note the BK court preselect choice) and searching by area code, which I think is the easiest to keep in mind and will cover the region sufficiently to produce search results that include the local BK courts. Then go to the BK court's website and search from there. I'm still researching this.
Top 10 cities could be split up among ten board members and each board member could do a quick search daily for new BK filings. We can be ahead of the news this way.
Los Angles, New York, Chicago, Miami, Delaware and or Utah probably have only one BK court due to population, Phoenix, Houston, Denver, Atlanta, etc.
This is from the local BK court website in my region:
"Bankruptcy cases are public records and are available for viewing in the Clerk's Office in either Seattle or Tacoma depending on where the file is located. In addition, the court's Electronic Case Files system provides access to court files via the Internet. Basic information about a case is available through the Public Access to Court Electronic Records (PACER) and Voice Case Information System (VCIS)."
===
How to find BKs as they happen continued:
"Public company's file for bankruptcy according the state laws for the state in which they are registered. They are also required to file form 8-k with the SEC. You can find additional information about bankruptcy filing at the web address below:
www.sec.gov/investor/pubs/bankrupt.htm
Typically, shareholders will find out about a company filing for bankruptcy through the news first. As far as fund managers are concerned, they are constantly monitoring the news and any filings for updates to a company's status.
Shareholders are notified if the company or transfer agent sends out a communication. Otherwise, they will typically notice because the symbol of the stock will change.
If you have any other questions or comments, please send us another secure message at anytime. We appreciate your business."
