So MALAYSIA is about to sign a CONTRACT with QS Energy as per the FACTS below in the 10K. The PROVEN AOT is going GLOBAL.
The PAID BASHERS & NAKED SHORT SELLERS are getting very nervous. Let them continue to get laughed at as their losses continue to increase.
Partnership Expansion and Strategic Developments. The partnership between VIPS and QS Energy has significantly strengthened over the reporting period. This collaboration has advanced to the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Australia Asia India Business Organization (AAIBO), as disclosed in our December 10, 2024, update, “QS Energy Achieves Phase 4 Milestone with Southeast Asia’s Leading Energy Producer.” Engagements with AAIBO and stakeholders in Malaysia have led to progress toward formalizing a contract.
Even uneducated fools with a low IQ should know NAKED SHORT SELLING gets reported differently & isn't part of Finra reporting. Experts that know their job tell me there is a HUGE SHORT position in QS.
The SHORT SQUEEZE is fast approaching. The PROVEN AOT is going GLOBAL.
This is why I do my own d/d. I only take advice from professionals who know what they are talking about & who know how to read and understand public filings.
I would NOT want to be SHORT on QS Energy. I notice the SHORT POSITION in QS Energy is increasing as per the EVIDENCE in the short report below.
https://otcshortreport.com/company/QSEP?index=qsep&action=view#.Vc0xR17ovIU
That is true, I have far lower margin requirements than 250k, so at 250k it doesn't make a lot of sense.
I am short and wouldn't like be long
I have been short since 2014, and will keep my short position up just to keep me interested in the story
If orders materialize and the company starts generating cash flow commensurate with the current market capitalization, I am more than willing to admit that I am wrong and cover my short position.
but I still have a residual short position left to keep me interested. If the stock goes up more, I might increase my short position.
I just think that this is a worthless POS pump-and-dump scheme that has been fleecing shareholders for years, and that is the reason I've been short this name for a few years.
So not one paid basher or naked short seller attended the recent shareholders meeting, even though they posted they were all coming. These keyboard warriors could’ve asked all the questions they liked but they went hiding. Good times ahead for shareholders. The PROVEN AOT is going GLOBAL.
If they ever have an actual shareholders meeting, i’m coming so i can document the clown show of freaks!
I’d love to see Cecil actually have to answer hard ball question that for some reason all you cheer leaders refuse to ask! No worries i’ll do it for you! smile
Truth hurts doesn't it? I mean who just sits in this thing with all the laughable NR's, the laughable 'partnerships' year after year, with the same rotating cast of characters? I've seen brain tumors with higher IQ's.
Imagine how sad and pathetic your life must be to show up to this board and cut and post the same meaningless pumper tripe day after day... all for a little pat on the head from Cecil and a few options.
Ya, if you trade about a grand worth of this lol! No volume for anyone to get out of it. Beep beep beep! Back that little hotwheels truck up and load up!
The latest PR below reads great. The PROVEN AOT is a "GAME CHANGER" for the oil industry.

Developed in partnership with leading university and crude oil production and transportation entities, QS Energy's high-value solutions address the enormous capacity inadequacies of domestic and overseas pipeline infrastructures that were designed and constructed prior to the current worldwide surge in oil production. In support of our clients' commitment to the responsible sourcing of energy and environmental stewardship, QS Energy combines scientific research with inventive problem solving to provide energy efficiency 'clean tech' solutions to bring new efficiencies and lower operational costs to the upstream, midstream and gathering sectors.
QS Energy's flagship technology is the AOT.

Developed in partnership with scientists at Temple University in Philadelphia, Applied Oil Technology (AOT) is the energy industry's first pipeline flow improvement solution for crude oil, using an electrical charge to coalesce microscopic particles native to unrefined oil, thereby reducing viscosity. Over the past four years AOT has been rigorously prepared for commercial use with the collaboration of engineering teams at numerous independent oil production and transportation entities interested in harnessing its demonstrated efficacy to increase pipeline performance and flow, drive up committed and uncommitted toll rates for pipeline operators, and reduce pipeline operating costs. Although AOT originally attracted the attention of pipeline operators motivated to improving their takeaway capacity during an historic surge in upstream output resulting from enhanced oil recovery techniques, the technology now represents what we believe to be the premiere solution for improving the profit margins of producers and transporters during today's economically challenging period of low spot prices and supply surplus.
