BSD,
For all the longs I think everyone should thank MLK because without him longs won't be able to scoop more shares at these sale prices..If you are long and not adding then MLK will be your worst nightmare..
If it goes down to $1.20 as predicted and then above rises above $1.90, that's over a 50% return. Not bad in the investment climate we are in right now! I think it's a great deal.
Good investing!
MLK is right. It's such a deal at these prices, especially considering he believes the pps will be much higher than 1.90 in October.
BSD
I'll be able to buy a lot more shares if it goes down to the $1.20's like I did last time. I can only hope for one more drop before the inevitable rise!
Good investing!
Back below $1.50...hate to say I told you so. Anyway, October is sneaking up fast and the lowest lows are just around the corner. To all the newcomers, look at the history of the posters on here. Only one person on this whole board predicted these lows, and that was me. All others have predicted anywhere from $5 to $60. I told everyone that we would see these lows and even gave a date. We reached them by the date given. Now, I'm giving another prediction. By Halloween, TKO will be below $1.20. Scary!!
u say "who knew it would be a nice addition". let's give credit to someone who's been berated often- R.P. he must have believed in it.
AND HERE IS YET ONE MORE OPINION: JUST OUT.
August 28, 2007 9:28 PM ET Recession unlikely in next year: U.S. Chamber
All Reuters newsWASHINGTON (Reuters) - Problems in the U.S. subprime mortgage market are unlikely to push the U.S. economy into a recession over the next 12 months, the top economist for a leading U.S. business group said on Tuesday.
"It's clear over the last year-and-a-half the economy has downshifted and things are not doing quite as well. But having said (that), I don't think we're on the precipice of a recession," said Martin Regalia, vice president for economic policy at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
Regalia said that, in his opinion, problems caused by bad loans made in the subprime market were not spreading to broader housing or overall debt markets.
"I think given the actions of the Fed -- what they've done so far and what they're likely to do in the future -- we're not going to see that broad-based contagion and therefore we're going to see the economy weather that storm," Regalia told reporters in a briefing.
Earlier this month, the Federal Reserve cut the discount rate at which it lends to qualifying banks by a half percentage point to 5.75 percent amid worry that problems in the subprime mortgage market were shrinking credit market liquidity.
Regalia said he expected the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates at its regular monthly meetings in September and October, but concerns about inflation would prevent the Fed from embarking on a longer-term easing campaign.
He said mortgage market problems will help trim U.S. economic growth to an annual rate of around 2 percent by the fourth quarter from about 4 percent in the second quarter.
"We're not going to get back to the 3-plus percentage growth rate, I don't think, until this housing issue is behind us, and that's likely to be the beginning of next year to the middle of next year," Regalia said.

I don't know what you're talking about. MLK's right. TKO is taking off.
Glad to see you back, by the way.
BSD
It was glad it only lost 2 cents as a ton of my other stocks were hammered. I like the strength TKO is showing. Can't wait for October!
Good investing!
You know thats a great point MLK and I do agree with you, TKO held up remarkably well today. It got real ugly today at the close and at least TKO was one bright spot, only down 2 pennies and showing relative strength like you pointed out.
Ok I was just getting concerned as to what was happening to some of the people who's opinions I've always respected.
click on tools.....then click on 'my ignores'....then follow the directions from there.
Not to worry E--many are taking one of his points, and turning it inside out--just as he does....those are not REAL praises...they are often sarcastically 'framed'. hahaha
does anoyone know how to take someone OFF ignore? i just can't figure it out......thanks in advance...rex
I had just logged on and saw all these praises of mlk. I thought he had some kind of revelation. I was wondering what happened and put him on unignore to see what he had said. Its the same old mlk basher crap. So I put him back on ignore and started to wonder whether the rest of the people that are answering and praising him have become part of the Kool Aid crowd.
You said it. Twenty five million is a lock for 2008! October is just the beginning! Way to go, MLK.
BSD
Down down down to end the day. What else is new? Remember the lowest lows are yet to come. Nothing can stop it now...October is just around the corner.
I wonder if GE, the Navy, Homeland Security, or any airport has really ever heard of TKO. All these deals were promised and are supposedly moving forward, yet none of them has yielded one penny that I have seen. Is it possible TKO made these agreements up out of thin air? Somebody should forward TKOs news releases to GE and the government to see if they are truly on the up and up. Otherwise, all we may have is some good storyboarding at TKO.
With MSHI taking and not able to provide the equity TKO sorely needs, when can we expect further dilution? Anyone?
TKO in the red again today...where are the 2's everyone was promising?
Glad everyone is now seeing the genius in my posts...unfortunately you are still misinterpreting the results for TKO.
Remember at the beginning of the year when TKO said they would make $25M, before they even acquire SSI and Ethostream. Then they acquired those two companies, by diluting TKO shares. But, they later promised that Etho and SSI would add about $12M to the bottom line.
Great, you thought, TKO will now make $37M...not so fast cowboy. Nope...TKO downgraded its expectations and will still only make $25M. So, really, TKO is only now expecting to make $13M from its core business.
Except, how can they do that when the core business is only making about $100,000 per quarter. By my voodoo math skills, that would take 130 quarters, or a short 32.5 years to reach $25M. Meaning, TKO will make its first $13M at its current pace in the year 2039...where will you be?
Yeah that is an interesting take MLK and I too agree with you on the seamless transition of Ethostream into TKO. Who knew they would be such a nice addition to the TKO line of business and ultimately adding to the bottom line.
I also agree with your take on them becoming cash flow positive this year. I am not sure about the 3rd quarter like you mentioned, but I think 4th quarter is a fairly reasonable assumption.
Don't forget the Navy, they should be a significant source also. I had forgot about them until MLK mentioned them. My bad. Can't wait to see the new contracts that will come from the military. It's hard to believe that TKO has been steady through the last couple of weeks. Helps my portfolio out and I'm looking forward to some great growth potential after October!
Good investing!
I agree with him also. Hard to believe that TKO will exceed $25 million in revenues this year, but if MLK says it, you can take it to the bank.
I agree with MLK. The investments in Ethostream and SSI were terrific for TKO and added to the existing business with GE, Homeland Security and the airports, TKO will soon take off!
BSD
I think you're right Ginni, we'll get the upsurge into October after Labor Day when markets settle down. Nice to see TKO trading in such stable fashion on low volume and in a very nervous, down market today.
Must make the shorts that are left very, very nervous!
MSHI getting hammered...no more cash there.
TKOs business, without the influx of Ethostream and SSI makes about $100,000 a quarter. At that rate, TKO will be profitable NEVER!!
This company has been nothing short of a complete and utter failure.
Where is GE? Homeland Security? The Navy? Airports? This company is all bluster and no muster. Flustered?
Hmmmmmmmmmm, a rare appearance by 'The Shadow', is imminently close at hand.. Can RP of Telkonet fame create a feat of equal magnitude and excitement, for shareholders with deepest loyalty???
HAHAHA That's a no-brainer as it is darned close to Labor Day as we speak....and something about 'speaking'...I think it would be a good idea if TKO came out with SOMEthing...if nothing more than announcing to the world that there is a new PR/IR or whatever it will be that is handling TKO these days.
I noticed two weeks ago that J. Noel had a different company name behind HIS name in the last PR...also noticed per the boards that Mike Porter did IN FACT move on--as was stated he would in the last CC...so putting 2 and 2 together...4 equals a new somebody handling the PR or IR for TKO. A nice little statement announcing such would be very appropriate at this time...IMO...or is IR still Joel, but at a company other than TKO?
i don't think we'll see much happening til after labor day.
yup--doesn't look so good right now for the markets--in general, that is...I agree with you about 'money on the sidelines', August is typically a hold cash month, aolmost over BUT......Monday morning might just reflect those who set up their stops and limits, IMO....probably before they left the office on Friday---over the weekend, however, there was lots and lots of news---the Home Depot bid declined by $2 billion dollars ---a huge decline when compared to the buyouts up to now. I read 20+ million people will lose their homes by foreclosure, the weather has not been nice to people who are flooded (you guys over there in Chicago) and tornad0-d out...we had STILL 12,000 people, as of last night in Kalamazoo, WITHOUT electricity, from last weeks sudden storm, Gonazales has resigned---(before he was impeached), Russia is doing "fly-overs" to various countries of late, babies are dying at birth , in the USA, at an abnormally high rate (lack of medical insurance) and the mothers as well---lots of news---the SEC people are resigning all over the place, the hedge funds are in big doo doo, the banks are having to be bailed out....IMO--there is a BIG SHIFT in process..I read last week somewhere (had lots of time to read and watch the news), that the DOW stocks were not in a good position for increase, but tht the smaller caps were---and that perhaps will be good for TKO in the long run, if they get their act together with the new leaderships. FUNNY, but I ALSO read that BB stocks were going to be hot for a while! hahahhaha Now THAT was news, too....hahhahha
Welcome back Sirius... guess I can put the magic 8-ball back into the family time capsule now that you're here again.
Looks like TKO and the markets in general are going to tread water today (consolidating gains)! That suprises me after the CAPJ markets were all up significantly earlier today. There is a lot of money on the sidelines now from what I hear waiting for direction. If interest rates start to go down, it will all be drawn back into the markets.
just a little bumps along the way..
it has to retrace somehow from .21-.66 run.. I see a couple of gaps on the chart
OT ...MCCY=ouch for you...nice stock
Patty girl!!
Welcome Back to the Land of Telkonet.. Hope you are 'New and Improved' and good for another 100,000 miles..
Wish RP could be that straight forward as the You Tube clip.. Good one!!!
Good to see you back on track Pat..
Yup TKO had picked up bit because MLK predicted it..LMAO
On the other hand I am up $50K again on MCCY..Good thing I didn't get rattled on the last shake...
remember this: its not what you know about the market its who you know..
What a week! It seems that TKO, the stock, has increased a bit this past week...Gip, your 8-ball is probably a better forecaster than any of us! hahahahahaha...but I will share with you that on Tuesday, there will be another volatile day, IMO. I base that opinion on the configuration of the stars in the sky---A full moon AND a lunar eclipse! with Mars and Jupiter in their own little skirmish--perhaps playing out as a an another agressive battle--power struggle- between the hedge funds and the little guy. hahaha. I like it, that the number of short shares has decreased, and that shorts seemd to be covering, probably in anticipation, that the pps of TKO is on the rise,finally....and while catching up on my reading of the boards....I came across some real good advice, on how to play the markets this week.....see for yourself.....
BSD,
yes great article, to be sure! For Telkonet to be higher than $1.90 by October,
that can only be explained intelligibly with a 'Genius' status...
Great article. No wonder you think TKO will be much higher than 1.90 by October.
BSD
Appreciate the info EM. Thanks a bunch.
Good investing!

Hey RBT...
A couple of weeks ago I said 2400 was a critical support to continue the bull vs. a further dip to 2330 or so forming a head and shoulder position. We split the difference at roughly 2360.
I now think 2725 last July was a "left shoulder", not a "head" formation. I think we'll rise into November-January (fed by rate cuts) to a "head" formation of 2800+ (most long term head and shoulder peaks are about six months apart). The right shoulder should occur in June before a 15 - 25% correction (mild 6 month recession) into early 2009. It also fits the election cycle perfectly, feeding off of all the negative talk. It probably will be triggered by falling GDP brought on by the spread of home supply and financial sector problems.
(I was surprised to hear the US is no longer the leading importer of goods from China... that honor now goes to the EU. Any guess as to the cause? I suspect not EU growth, but decline in US consumer spending.) I'd also rethink US global sales on a competitive base with Asia. I noticed on the news, China used Korea Hundyai earth moving equipment to clear rubble from their recient bridge collape, not Catapillar. Tech companies may be in the same shape. What IBM can do, India can do just as well at 10% of the price. "Choose wisely grasshopper!"
Hey Pops!!
Here's the monthy short interest you mentioned about..
Keep pushing the Telkonet fever...
http://www.nasdaq.com/asp/quotes_full.asp?kind=shortint&x=63&y=7&prevselected=tko&sy...
Not sure if somebody has posted this on here yet or not, so here goes...Telkonet teaming up with a home builder or two, whether through the Geeks or not, sounds like a fantastic idea. Sounds just like what MLK was saying months ago. Jim must read MLK's postings. Have I mentioned what a genius MLK appears to be? At least this is a positive article about TKO:
http://www.cable360.net/technology/25057.html
It's hard to say what the market is reacting to right now. We all know that it could go down a lot more, but the sentiments I am getting are more positive and an upturn will continue. Who really knows? I looked at the shortsqueeze page and TKO's shorts have dropped quite a bit. Right now it's a 16+% drop in shorts or about 300K shares. It seems significant to me. I wish I had the numbers going back a couple of months because it seems the shorts have gone down dramatically. Good news for us? I hope so! Seems like quite a few of my stocks have shorts percentages dropping. Maybe they are thinking the market is going to get stronger? Time will tell. Nothing like a little excitement to keep us from getting bored.
Good investing and everyone have a great weekend!
OT - Not to sound like a bear because I am net long right now, but this rally we have in the market seems more of an 'up move because we cant go down' move.
Any thoughts on whether we are rallying because of the percieved 'floor' in the market?
Is there another shoe to drop, and if so, will that trickle outward to other sectors other than financial/housing?
Having said that, I stil buy into global expansion and think that as the world continue to grow exponentially, there are tremendous opportunities out there in the US equity market to piggy back on some of the companies that will be doing all the work.
Hmmmm... let me check my magic 8 ball... "IT IS DECIDEDLY SO!" There you have it. Confirmed by my primary advisor in Sirius' absence. Gotta run and stack sandbags. Later TKO'ers.
Yes, but if TKO is much higher than 1.90 as MLK says, all the better, right?
BSD
I'm up 8% since Wednesday... IMO $1.90 by Oct is a very probable 32% gain. Since August 2006, I'm up several thousands on my TKO investments. At the risk of sounding like bragard, I don't typically make mistakes in judging stocks. TKO IMO is going to be a winner. If you can time your trades... all the better! The fall run is about to begin, and I'd recommend moderate positions in the beaten down stocks that show promise. If not your style... try 2 year CD's before rates go down.

Sector: Technology
Industry: Communications Equipment
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)
