Right! And it was over $3 just a little before that!
$1.90 by October is doing well?
TKO was just at $2.20 in July. Even IF it was $1.90 by October, I would say a loss of 13% in market cap plus continual dilution is a horrible turn of events.
Yup, TKO sellers are disappearing! Volume is still thin because of the hesitation on market direction. I think we'll very likely get a 1/2% Fed Funds cut on the 18th. Too many major companies are voicing strong opinions that the Fed has overtightened AND NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING NOW! Besides, we're starting to look like a failing economy and loosing market leadership in the eyes of the rest of the world. I now think The NASDAQ has a good chance of continuing the bull run and reaching 2800 during November. (After the first Fed Fund Rate cut following a series of increases, historically the market rises 12%+ over the next year.) TKO is in sync to do very well ($1.90 by October)!
Yeah...wow...can't believe it....a whole $30,000 was invested in TKO this morning. I bet we'll be at two soon.
With tko up .07 on 21m shares isn't it showing that sellers are getting thinner and thinner. Good by all you shorts.
Good trading day... TKO Close: $1.46, up 2.82%! High of $1.50 on healthy purchase volume. Looks like momentum and interest are starting to ramp up. IMO, we're ripe for SP improvement over the next two weeks! Go TKO!!!
Man RBT, you knew he couldn't resist, but I'll take an up day anytime. It will be funny when we talk about the good ol days (now) when the price was under $2 a share. Folks will pat you on your back for the wisdom you had in investing in a company with such foresight. We will bask in the glory of it all! I look forward to OCTOBER, as it may be the change we need. Some may go away for good by then.
Good investing!
$1.43!!! Where is all that buying power that trader was alluding to? Must have lost their pennies on the way to the trading floor.
I know exactly what I'm talking about...if there was a huge ground swell of support, as you allege, then the price should be moving up. Instead price is stagnant with big volume...meaning, more people wanting to dump at the lower price then purchase at a higher price. Not too difficult to understand, really. It's what a free market is all about. But, then again, it doesn't surprise me that it is confusing, since most people, including yourself, thought TKO would be above $2.00 right now.
So you mean someone sold shares but noone actually bought them? Do you have any idea what you are talking about? Wait dont answer that...
Here is what I see...people that control well over 200,000 shares dumping TKO below $1.50, probably mostly at a loss. Now why would they do that? Tick tock to October.
I gotta say I have never seen as many big bids posted on the bid and offer before. Seems like some institutional trades are getting in the mix a little here, on both buy and sell side. Interesting set up here...
BSD... I think you're right! Looks like we're starting to get a leg up out of the hole we're in. I still think we have the potential to get to $1.90 in 3 - 4 weeks, if the markets would just settle down and relax a little.
Too much over reaction and now hesitation. A month ago I heard analysts stating that financial institutions were under valued and a buy. Today they are on the avoidance list. (I just heard forecasters are expecting 2 million mortgage defaults over the next two years and a resulting recession.) The moral of the story is "stick with what you know". Sometimes stocks that have already been beaten down, are the ones that shine through the tough times!!!
Finally some decent sized bids. I was wondering if we were going to see buyers anytime soon here.
BSD
A big Hardy welcome to the Telkonutts, JT!!!
OT--Lets welcome JT as one of our assitant mods..
Good sound advice...
BPL finally got a mention on Cramers Mad Money Show yesterday. A caller asked for him to comment on BPL and he said "it hasn't been a success yet". It looks like we are making some inroads...
Too bad he didn't buy more under $1.30. He'd still be up like some of my shares are. If it goes down again, I will buy some more, simple as that. All the chicken little thinking being espoused by one person won't shake those that look to this stock as "one" of their investments. I emphasize "one" because anyone would be crazy to have all their money sunk into one stock. My exposure is less that 10% of my portfolio, so I have built in a comfort zone for this stock and others I have. As I said before, I can't give credence to any who espouse only a price "monodirectionality" of a stock, whether they say "It's going down" or "It's going through the roof." I like a balanced view that can be backed up either way with credible information rather than "I said so" or "I'm not wrong" or even "This is a sure bet", blah, blah, blah. This is why I like this board. Plenty of good information and technicolored opinions. Good to have diversity!
Until the next rise..good investing!
Why is it going below $1.20 and why will October be bad, bad, bad? Not because I have any inside information...that would be illegal. Nope. It is all right there for you in black and white.
At the beginning of this year, RP promised that TKO, with MSHI in the fold, would take in $25M in revenue. Most people, including myself, believed this was possible after the GE announcement. The $25M figure came from the shareholder letter as communicated on 02/21/2007...here is a link:
http://biz.yahoo.com/e/070221/tko8-k.html
But, as you will see below, there is no way TKO even comes close to making $25M this year.
After the $25M promise, things changed. First, they went out and bought Ethostream and SSI through dilution of TKO shares.
Here is a link from 03/02/2007 regarding the SSI acquisition:
http://biz.yahoo.com/e/070302/tko8-k.html
Here is a link from 03/19/2007 regarding the Ethostream acquisition:
http://biz.yahoo.com/e/070319/tko8-k.html
Contrary to others on here, the acquisitions clearly came after the promise of $25M.
Then, they spun off MSHI to reportedly cut expenses.
Now, in the conference call that most everyone on I-Hub, save MLK, was so excited about, RP told us that Etho and SSI would contribute about $12M per year (I think that number is accurate, if memory serves me right) to the bottom line. So, you would think that instead of TKO generating $25M in revenue, it would now even look better with $37M in revenue. Nope, that was the first punch to the gut...RP promised in the CC that TKO would still only be able to generate $25M in revenue, despite the contributions from Etho and SSI. So, in effect RP diluted TKO shares only to make the same promise that he had made several months earlier with TKO's undiluted shares. That was the first downgrade in projections that was ignored by everyone...except MLK and the market.
Then, in this last quarterly report, TKO announces that they generated $3.6 in revenue. Only, when you consider all the above information, you have to take out $500K of it, because it is really MSHI generated revenue. Leaving TKO with only $3.1M in revenue. Then, if you think that Etho and SSI will bring in $12M this year and divide it by four to arrive at a quarterly number, you quickly find that Etho and SSI probably generated $3M this last quarter. So, when all is said and done, TKO generated $100K this last quarter. $100,000 is all we got for continual dilution and lost opportunities. What happened to all those BIG contracts? What happened to GE, the schools, the navy, homeland security, etc, etc, etc. The fact is that RP and TKO made agreements with all those groups and couldn't generate more than $100,000 last quarter. In effect, those agreements are worth about as much as the paper they are printed on.
Why is TKO stock going straight down? It's not really all that hard to figure out when considering all the above.
As I write this, TKO is down to $1.42 when most of the cheerleaders thought we would be well above $2.00 after the quarterly and COO announcements. MLK said nope, back down to the lowest levels we have seen. The market, which never lies, apparently agrees with MLK. I'm just sorry I couldn't help more of you sooner.
Well, if you had held on you could of made another 35 cents before getting out :)
But onto more pressing issues... do you mean to tell us that something bad is going to happen to TKO in October? Wow, did you get that from Steeltowndog? I mean his posts have been spot on the money so it must be true.
Jeez, thanks for telling me, I am selling my position as we speak. I only wish my broker would let me short the stock now!
Great job passing along credible info MLK. Thanks!
If you recall, I sold in the $1.40s...actually my average sell was above where it now sits at $1.43...so I'm okay. Besides, it is most definitely heading down below $1.20 by November 1st. October is going to be really really really bad.
I'm not the only one that apparently thinks that from what I've read and heard. Apparently some long time cheerleaders are out until November as well. I would get out quick.
Yeah, I would be scaling here in here for sure if I did not have a position, not a bad place to add either.
Are you still mad that you sold around 1.30 and missed the run up 1.80?
Dont be bitter MLK, just put up a bid at 1.42 and the ride the wave up!
Well I couldn't resist... picked up a few more shares at $1.44. I think we'll get a run up into the Fed meeting on 9/18. If they cut 1/2%, the run will probably continue. If they don't, or they only cut 1/4%, I think the market will react negatively... I know I will!
Trader...do you think purchasing 37K shares at $1.40 is wise at this point? What on Earth is going to keep this stock about the $1.20s again before November? Nothing I can see. We are heading back to those levels and below, I think. Remember, I have yet to be wrong on this company.
Is that you with the 37m share bid at 1.40, MLK?
It's no surprise who shows up at the slightest downturn with erroneous information. Sure would be nice to have those upturn predictions also. But as always with those who only have a portion of truth, we will never see both sides of the prediction. Too bad, and thank you Walrus for hanging in there and sticking with this stock. In fact, thanks to all who are here to see the stock be successful someday (sooner the better).
Good investing!
Walrus, surprised to see you here, considering that you said you had sold your position. I'm glad you listened to MLK when I said we would be below $1.50...congratulations on a wise trade. Think there is still a lot of opportunity for a lower move yet. Below even our most recent lows. Things could be truly scary by October. Again, congratulations on a wise trade.
Market recovering...TKO floundering...yawn.
October is coming quick and the lows will be lower. yawn. Nothing ever changes for TKO
Yes if you'd check post 8370 where God is being brought into a situation. It gets my attention and I care.
Can anyone tell me wants going on with lake and Sirius?
Great news the shorts are still running. Unfortunatley its seems that they are being let out of these positions slowly.

I didn't receive any message re Sirius. Whatever is happening, I wish her the best.
BSD
That is it for today.
Att anyone, I have not seen a message since this morning except for Sonny's & mine to Sirius wishing her well during this weeks tests. Post's # 8370 & 8371. Please advise if the same applies to anyone else or is it my computer. Thanks, Walrus. Just saw EMarshall's # 8372
Does anyone know when the short interest report for July comes out?
Sirius, The same good wishes to you from me, praying that all goes well for you. Walrus
OT--I hope everything goes well with you Sirius and hope GOD is on your side...
Anybody have any ideas why MSTI would have climbed $.25 today? The volume was only 9K, so I suppose someone could have afforded to overpay for a small number of shares, but I am not sure why you would unless you really wanted into the stock - or had a short to cover.
Just to add to that, I would not be too concerned with warrants that far out of the money. By the time they are excerciseable, the stock would be trading above 4.17, which would happen over time or with a significant catalyst.
Point being, if those warrants are excerised it is because good things have happened and at that point I dont much care if the stock is slightly diluted. That will already be priced in.
I think the last round of financing had warrants at $4.17, and I believe that was the same number used for previous funding. Until the pps gets above that, we are relatively safe from dilution I believe. There are warrants issue to the BOD and key employees for lower pps, but that hopefully will not turn into excess supply on the market.
Although I have urged the ability to remove certain posters, I agree that this forum has been policed well. That, in combination with my ability to use ignore, leads me to agree with Pops.
Sirius, I too am not a "valued" member at the Hub, so I can't reply privately. I think this board polices itself fairly well and keeps decorum for the most part. Diversity is a good thing in most cases. I like the info. that I get from this site and hope it keeps up, otherwise, yes I would think another site would then be better. Here's to an upweek!
Good investing!
Funny ch!t..Don't even know Tim (Steeltown) got banned here..and MLK is still here?? Oh common Matt you can do better than that besides we need some negativity to balance our cheerleading team :)
Sirius, ditto what BSD said.
Same for me, We need someone to dilute the Koolaid now and then or we risk another ride from $3.60 to $1.50 in the future. This is board is fine with me but I'm not as sensitive to the occasional negative posts. Shred
Sirius,
and others!! As requested, here is a (link) for the 'Ceocast' news article.. Near middle of page...

Stolen from Yahoo---can someone find a link for this? and post it? for verification reasons?
I am not going to be 'around' this next week, starting tomorrow morning....and will probably not be able to post OR keep up on the reading of other posts, nor will I be watching for news relevant to TKO....so folks...be nice...have fun. and Please let me know one way or the other, yur opinion, re a private board. So far, I have heard from 6 people. Will tally up next weekend, probably, and let you know.

Telkonet’s patented powerline communications (PLC) systems – the Telkonet iWire System and next generation 200 Mbps Telkonet Series 5 – use a building’s existing internal electrical wiring to enable Internet connectivity throughout an entire building, converting electrical outlets into high-speed data ports. This is an ideal solution for properties that are not wired with CAT-5 or where CAT-5 is cost-prohibitive.
The EthoStream Gateway Server (EGS) product line of gateway devices, which are developed in-house, deliver wired or wireless high-speed Internet access, integrating easily with any combination of WAN connections. The EGS products range from a cost-effective gateway for limited use applications to a feature-rich, dual-WAN, scalable gateway for full-service properties.
Telkonet’s energy management systems, Telkonet SmartEnergy (TSE) and Networked Telkonet SmartEnergy (NTSE), reduce in-room energy consumption by controlling heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) usage based on occupancy. By eliminating unnecessary heating and cooling of vacant rooms, TSE typically reduces energy consumption by 30% or greater.
Telkonet’s proactive support center brings quality of service to a new level with its dedicated, in-house employees, 24/7/365 support, and integrated proactive monitoring and management tools that put property management in control. By integrating the EthoStream Gateway Server and the web-based Telkonet CENTRAL, our in-house support team has real-time visibility into a property’s HSIA usage and data, as well as ISP status.
Telkonet SmartEnergy™ (TSE) controls HVAC usage and improves energy efficiency by adjusting and maintaining a room’s temperature based on occupancy, using a combination of occupancy sensors, intelligent programmable thermostats or packaged terminal air conditioner (PTAC) controllers. TSE eliminates wasteful heating and cooling of vacant rooms without compromising an occupant’s comfort based on our patented Recovery Time™ technology.
Building on the proven capabilities of the TSE system and incorporating Telkonet's unique Recovery Time™ technology, our new Networked Telkonet SmartEnergy (NTSE) advances intelligent HVAC building control with a flexible, resilient and low-cost energy management platform. NTSE utilizes a ZigBee wireless IEE802.15.4 “mesh” network, where each device functions as a wireless repeater and enables energy management thermostats to communicate with each other and aggregate communications up to a single master NTSE Gateway Server on site. NTSE enables central control without needing expensive back-haul wiring. Its key monitoring and analysis features ensure optimum energy savings, giving property owners the tools to identify and implement energy savings, providing total visibility and detailed data about a property's HVAC system and its energy consumption, together with real-time, instant remote management capabilities.
Key features and benefits of NTSE
Telkonet’s proprietary, patented powerline communications (PLC) products harness a building’s internal electrical wiring to form an IP network, turning power outlets into data ports, while leaving the electrical functionality unaffected. Telkonet’s PLC systems – the Telkonet iWire System and the 200 Mbps Telkonet Series 5 – represent a quick, economical, and non-disruptive way to achieve high-speed Internet connectivity throughout a building. Telkonet’s PLC systems offer the hard-wired security and reliability of a CAT-5 cabled network, but without the cost, physical disturbance and business disruption of wiring CAT-5. For properties looking to provide wireless coverage, Telkonet’s systems can be used to feed WiFi access points, which can be connected quickly and simply to any power outlet.
Series 5 Comparison “With 209 sites and limited numbers of IT technicians, we needed a reliable, plug-and-play system that was easy to install, maintain and operate. With Telkonet’s solution, we demonstrated that our own IT staff and contract electricians could install the system…”
Steve Custer, Supervisor CCTV/LAN Networking and A.V. Repair, Hillsborough County School District (SDHC)

PLC Product Components
Telkonet’s systems comprise a set of compact building blocks – the Telkonet Gateway, which connects via a router to the site’s external broadband feed, and a Telkonet Coupler that interfaces with a building’s electrical distribution panel. A further unit, the Telkonet eXtender™, can be connected to the Telkonet Coupler to provide additional reach for multi-building sites. To access the Internet, a user simply connects their laptop into a Telkonet iBridge unit.
Telkonet Gateway™ | The "brain" of the system, the Telkonet Gateway converts IP connections to a PLC signal and distributes PLC to the Telkonet Coupler. Through a web or CLI interface, the Telkonet Gateway allows management and configuration of the other Telkonet components. Each Telkonet Gateway supports up to 63 Telkonet eXtenders, 1,023 Telkonet iBridges (users) and up to 4,096 Ethernet endpoints. | |
Telkonet Couplers | The Telkonet Coupler takes the PLC signal from the Telkonet Gateway or Telkonet eXtender and injects that signal into the in-building electrical wiring. Installation of the Telkonet Coupler requires a licensed electrician to meet National Electric Code (NEC) and local electric code standards. Also comes in a model with integrated disconnect switch. | |
Telkonet eXtender™ | The Telkonet eXtender provides additional reach and scalability for networks that cannot be properly covered by a single Telkonet Gateway or multi-building environments. It can be used with wireless radio or wireline networks. | |
Telkonet iBridge™ | The Telkonet iBridge enables a user to connect a computer or IP device to the PLC network. It contains a "test" function to determine the PLC signal strength and has an RJ45 user port connection. |
