I bought a bunch at 57.551 per share a few months ago.

Divi date just passed for the quarter and I get .79 a share.

That's over 5% for an annual divi. GIC's pay around 2%

Apples divi is less than 1%

Waiting on news on yours.

Been reading its board here.

Nice bunch of nuts.

Here's to hoping it hits.

[MLR_Lite]

Excellent!
Just waiting on the updates of recent changes like Medicare approval to be made for SEC filings.
Best guess is any time this week or next.
DO NOT sell before we get the news.

[k9narc]

Took a flier on your pick...in at .032

I shouldn't place orders at nite when I'm stoned.

I forget about things like exchange rates and make fat finger trades.

Finished my back yard project. Needed a fire escape ramp at the back of the house. Only had one way out for the mother in law.

[MLR_Lite]

2 more weeks. Then I start looking for that farm to go play on. Or at least up to my friends farm. He is looking for company and I am well versed in bush-hogging, lol.

[k9narc]

Well, I hope your unvc helps get you where you want to be.
It's nice to be able to retire young (ish) and enjoy life.
I was forced to and just wish my health was better so I could travel more.

Both my wife and her mom sold their condos this past month. Both at full asking and, each in less than 24 hours. I was shocked. Damn real estate agent made over 50k in a few hours. . 2.75m for the wife's and 650k for her moms. I'm now the second poorest person in the house, next to the dog. I also have a garage full of furniture that isn't needed.

I'm still playing banks stocks, and added some of the gold stocks I've been watching.

Took a flier on ADRO-Q and it hasn't been pretty. Down .Down about 10 k on that stoner pick, but like your unvc, I'm looking for a big run.

So, when's the last day?

[MLR_Lite]

I sincerely want it to be. It was a voluntary thing with incentives to go away. After 30 years I jumped at the chance.

[k9narc]

Is this retirement?

[MLR_Lite]

chit load - check!
Dalton went voluntarily dark for a reason.
The next filing which should be any time will be epic and we will take off.

I needed this because my last day of employment is soon. Should have already left but they asked me to stay longer.

[k9narc]

Nice little run...hope it keeps up and you have a chit load.

[MLR_Lite]

k9, u n v c just got their 2 medicare approvals today. The time for cheap shares appears to be ending rapidly. Dont wait till it is a dollar!

[k9narc]

Did I mention ...I'm bored.

[k9narc]

LOL....me too. I'm following the Ihug board for it now. 3 posts in 4 months and 2 of them are mine. I did get a response to my first one, but admin grabbed it before I could read it. A couple of more posts and I'll get a mod spot and read it.

In the mean time, I'm trying to figure out why it bounced so hard. Can't find any news, or a promo... and I ain't complaining.

[MLR_Lite]

glad your no longer upside down in that one

[k9narc]

Well, your unvc is doing better than my adro-q, but I'm happy today.

Real happy, cause I got 20,000 shares averaged in at 2.665 and I was down almost 10 grand from the gate. Got it all back on paper.

AAPL is now 10.00 - 15.00 a share higher than when I sold all at the end of Feb. I din't buy back in at 240.00 because I was convinced it would go to 220.00

Now I wait for the second wave of this virus to hit. If 10-14 days from now the infection numbers don't spike.... then we should be fine.

I'm gonna miss that aapl divi.

[MLR_Lite]

I wanted to share something I posted elsewhere. I check the edgar website each day so I know this only happened today.

Check this out. And tighten your seat belts.

tell me if I am going nuts. I had unvc bookmarked in sec edgar search for a long time. today it says no such ticker. but it will still come up by cik# 0001029825. Am I nuts or has something changed here today?

[k9narc]

The 30 price target on that stock was issued in 2015 from what I am able to find. Mot sure how my Financial newspaper could fluck that up.

I'll put the shares aside and see what happens after the merger
Most analysts have a target of 5-8 bucks.

[k9narc]

I'll just say....I'll have what she's smoking.

Here's an analyst recommendation on Aduro Biotech Inc (ADRO)


That's the one I grabbed a bunch of yesterday. I hadn't seen this when I bought.

"Aduro Biotech Inc(ADRO-Q) was rated new "outperform" at Oppenheimer by equity analyst Wendy Lam. The 12-month target price is $30 (U.S.) per share."

Maybe a 10X will cheer me up. Wouldn't be the first time I turned 25K into 250k. ahhhhhh...a good dream.

Off a Globe and mail link that may need a membership to read.

Still watching your UNVC

[MLR_Lite]

I would love to be rich but I have no faith they will put that other company into mcic. I think they are out to screw Paul and all shareholders.

Keep watching UNVC. I expected it on Monday. We should be any time this month and the sooner the better.


Sorry you are bored. Go buy a farm to fart around on. Thats my plan. You dont have to have any critters. Just land, toys, small cabin.

[k9narc]

They have a new rumor floating around. Seems like a new and upcoming company is in the wings. Been in business only 2-3 months and showing 15-25m a year in sales. You gonna be rich....

Watching unvc. Bought a bunch of adro Miss my aapl.... lost a few bucks covering my shorts on it.

I still think this market is pumped up and way over priced. Patiently waiting for the crash......

I hate being bored....

I lose money when I'm bored....

God....I'm bored.

[MLR_Lite]

So my stock U N V C either has Medicare billing approval nationwide or is in the final steps of the process.
We have verified this on the medicare enrollment website.
I hope my friends own shares in this in case there is something overnight that makes the stock open way higher before you can get in.

it is always soon, but this feels really soon.

[MLR_Lite]

Well I can't say where I have been obviously. If you want to know you will have to guess, lol.

When I am here I just
Hang around and watch crappy stocks like mcic.

[k9narc]

Your absence has been noticed.

All is well up here. I'm till trying to get used to not being alone in the house. Having women around here seems strange.

Messed up big time on this "COVID" stock reaction. I still think most of this recovery is artificial and we haven't seen the worst yet.

Went to an all cash position... made a bit on flips, lost a lot on shorts.
Never bought my apples back for long term holding and now it's higher than when I sold.

Bought bank stocks last week and while I view them as a long term hold, managed to lose on them in the last week.

At least I still have my gold bars. Nice gain on those.

New site? Any good?

I need something to get me interested in trading again.

[k9narc]

Getting a little action on GOVX. Bounced over .40 for a few trades.

[MLR_Lite]

Alcohol is sheets essential in the us

[k9narc]

I don't know what your rules are down there, but I can't short stocks in my RRSP (401k). If I could, I'd have shorted 5000 shares of APPLE on Friday at 286.00

I shorted 100 in my cash account.

I have 3 shorts now for 100 each.

286.00
283.00
243.00

I'm betting on 225.00 by May 1st

God this is boring. I'd start drinking again, but I can't get in the storage locker to raid my stash. Not an essential service I guess.

Today...I'm baking.

[MLR_Lite]

IMO it has to do with everyone using mobile tech. Schools, healthcare, office meetings, etc are all being held on laptops or phones. And with EVERYONE using their phones all day perhaps they are all upgrading?

[k9narc]

GOVX may be at the start of a run. Taking a shot at it @.25

Not a long term play IMHO

[k9narc]

I've traded for many years, and this market amazes me.

Why has it had so many "up" days with what we are going through?

I went short on AAPL at 243.00 a week and a half ago. It's at 283 today.

Why? Stores are closed, sales are way down.

Does anyone else think that reality will soon set in and the markets will crash?

Am I missing something.

[k9narc]

Next short......253.37

God.... this is boring.

[k9narc]

Covered....229.24

Easy money.

[MLR_Lite]

I have plenty to keep me busy. A couple months ago I had a head gasket go out in my 15 y/o ford f150. I plan to trade in later this year if all goes well but not ready yet. So bro and I tore it down enough to replace the head gasket in question plus all timing chains/guides.

It actually started which is a good thing. Now I am fighting some messed up fuel injectors that we messed up doing the job. Thank goodness for rockauto.com, the price is always right.

[MLR_Lite]

We are all good. I have always worked from home most of the time. Now everyone is home from school as well.

Take care and find a quiet place

[k9narc]

What a whacked market... If all goes according to plan, I cover my short pre market.

As far as buying to hold...I see nothing worth investing in. Guessing this will last near a month and the Dow will be in the low teens.

Hope you all are safe down there. Have they let you start working from home?

We went into lock down and have enough supplies to last about a month. I hope I'm sane when this is all over..... if I ever was.

[k9narc]

Yep...but gotta do something to stop from going nuts. (my mother in law doesn't shut up).

One more time....100 short at 244.98

[MLR_Lite]

Shorting a stock in this market is like shooting fish in a barrel I imagine

[k9narc]

Covered short at $240.60

That was fun.

[k9narc]

God this is boring....250.55 x 100 shorting AAPL

[k9narc]

I have it on watch, and will re-visit it from time to time.
I'm sitting on a pile of cash looking for a point to get back in the market, but not liking what I see. I bought a 17 month GIC on Monday with the huge return of 2.1%. I hate GIC's, but the money is safe and I'll get about 30k in interest. Better than nothing.

Went out this AM to do some shopping and the stores were a zoo.
Sister in law can't find TP anywhere in Toronto and it was the same here.
Thankfully, I stocked up on a sale in December and have a dozen 60 packs in the basement. I might put it on market place for 5 bucks a roll. Gotta make a buck somewhere.

Have a good weekend, stay safe and healthy.

I'm going to put the house in lockdown.

[MLR_Lite]

Do yourself a favor and put a thousand into unvc

[k9narc]

I've got this site on refresh.... https://www.hhs.gov/about/news/index.html

Maybe I'll keep ahead of the rush.....if there is any.

[k9narc]

While I sit here on a bunch of AAPL money to re invest back into it, I've been playing a few biotechs. When the fed awards grant money for virus research, one or more of them may soar.

I wonder if I'll be lucky enough to be holding one. I've bought the first 2 on my list and am still looking at others.

MRNA, INO, GILD, NVAX, REGN and GOVX

The last one is a pink dilution scam and I haven't bought any, but scams run hard and I'm closely watching it.

[MLR_Lite]

Feel free to adopt me. Lol

[k9narc]

I've never had a problem making money, but It seems that it's getting harder to spend it as I age. There is basically nothing I want/need but groceries and good weed.
I'm at the point where I get more of a thrill from being right on my calls, than I get from the profits.

[MLR_Lite]

Well shit if you are gonna make money then I am not sorry for you at all, lol. I can type better than you after 7 beers. You must have some good drugs, ha!

[k9narc]

I'm thrilled with the drop. Saw it coming and sold fast. Not really sure whàt PPS will be a re entrý point, but I will load back up. The last drop gave me a ride from 165 to 310/320. That was a gift.
We have a tax hole up here called a TFSA. It's a tax free savings account. I've never invested in one and can do a catch up one time deposit of about 70k. I'm going to open a questrade account next week and start playing this game again. I think coming changes will make trading interesting for me and I desperately need something to keep me busy and sane. Can't travel for health reasons so I'm kinda grounded.
My goal is to double it by years end. I'll be watching your pick closely
Enjoy the weekend and pardon my spelling/grammar.
I'm heavily medicated and typing on a tablet.

[MLR_Lite]

Yes sir. I am on super duper high alert on that until Mar 16 when RAD has an analyst call about some new initiatives they are taking.

Sorry your apple is having a tough time. Stocks everywhere have taken a real ass whipping this week. Warmer weather and some better numbers with infections/vaccine work will settle all of that down I think. But still a scary situation.

I could not agree more on a cabin. Some land even to put an old RV on is a very high priority for me this year. As Popeye would say "I've had all I can stands and I can't stands no more!"

[k9narc]

Dalton is UNVC? I'm keeping an eye on it while I watch AAPL take a nice dip. It's down almost 40 bucks a share since I dumped.

I hope the SEC's new rules of delisting delinquent companies makes trading at this level fun and interesting again. Way to many scams down here.


6 inches of snow and ice hit us last nite... I have no way to escape the women around here. There are only 2, but they're everywhere.


Time to start looking for a cottage.... a run down piece of shit the wife wouldn't set foot in. A place to hide.

[k9narc]

Back to selling apples....gonna miss a divi.

[MLR_Lite]

We should be a matter of hours to days on this one. Dalton should have a homerun very soon.

k9, I say yikes to the PM. But I understand. We used to go to a buddies cabin for a night or 2 every few weeks. Have not been in over a year because his new job is so busy. I think my wife is ready to have be build my own cabin in the back yard, lol.

[MLR_Lite]

Heavy dilution on I N N D.
Not worth the risk for me.
