hmmm...starting to worry about your investment? You should!!
Ever try reaching Ellis? Know the current float (as opposed to just 2 weeks ago?) Doesn't 5 r/s in 2 years mean ANYTHING to you? Dense?
FYI, IHUB deleted the last WHLI board, which would have served as an excellent place for DD, given the fact that bashing is minimal on IHUB, and the WHLI board was full of it. It takes ALOT for people here (on IHUB)to bash, and I'm no different.
When a stock trades 2-3x its present 'believed' float in one day, CAVEAT EMPTOR!!!
Just like you, I was an *** for 'believing' WHLI had big potential. Thanx to a few savvy investors here tho, I wizened up. I hope you do too, for your sake, not mine!
It's your money, not mine!
PS. Grow up and post with substance.
OMG A post on this POS stock haaaaa I think I have 440 shares left , after the last RS!! How bout you??
lowlife....STFU BASHER!!!!!!
One More Thought fwiw:
after reading all your posts here and at rb on both boards, seems like..(sorry i cant help but rotflmao) you traders got burned on maybe the fourth or fifth r/s in "5 years" so you say...
question is: did you invest before doing proper DD ?
did you neglect to identify the previous patterns of the CEO before jumping in on a run?
are you mad at Ellis or yourself?
Getting hositle over at RB..
So some of you have earned your R/S badge from Ellis...any long time trader has....if not, you will..deal with it..
our money is more at risk from crying losers than Ellis any day..taking out your anger for ellis and causing your fellow traders to lose their azz isn't kosher...its not our fault...
truly sorry you got burned but state your piece and move on..
All The Best...
Hey Baby!! Gave ya a membermark just for giggles!! :0)
Anytime trader...take your namecalling back to RB, where you fit in better!
What's with this CEO? is he trying to crush any possible move up?
WHLI..."World's Hottest Losing Investment"!
WHLI would be a good investment, if not for the greedy, selfish CEO, who tripled the float while running several 'nice sounding' PR's.
PPS was .0016 before it's recent run, w/float of just under 15mm.
Now, with float at 44mm (CEO dumped during peak of run), it's hard to imagine this company (with it's 'wonderful' history), sustaining even .001.
Am I a basher of WHLI? DAMN STRAIGHT, I am!!! Wished I heeded JT's warnings! Moreover, I wish IHUB had never deleted the first WHLI board, where I might have found DD for a more informed decision.
Thanx IHUB!!!
If people would relax a little and not get so greedy. There would be alot more runners with big potential.. This still has a chance.. coming up of the bottom again... Maybe the bid wackers are out now... Just praying for some more volume...GL
I bet whoever sold those shares to you is feeling a little sick right now!!! LOL
WHLI news: (InternetWire) Nu Image Medspa Announces Expansion Plans
Emerging Franchise Adds New Locations From California to Florida
NEWPORT BEACH, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 08/17/05 -- Winsted Holdings, Inc. (OTC B
: WHLI), a
Business Development Company (BDC), is pleased to announce that it is
spearheading efforts to expand the highly successful Nu Image Medspa
franchise, a portfolio company of Winsted, to six additional locations.
Under its comprehensive management consultant agreement, Winsted Holdings
will assist new franchises located in Huntington Beach (California), San
Diego (California), Las Vegas (Nevada), Boca Raton (Florida), Orlando
(Florida), and Tampa (Florida). The company anticipates signing completed
agreements for these locations in the near future, with each location
resulting in revenue of $58,500. As a whole, the new franchises offer
Winsted a $351,000 opportunity.
"Success breeds success," stated Winsted Holdings CEO, Mark Ellis.
"BareSkin and Charlotte Laser Centers were such successes that Nu Image
MedSpa is leveraging those success stories into sales. With its summer
discovery days exceedingly popular, signings and potential signings are
coming in from all over the country. Winsted will be central to the
process of supporting these new franchises and achieving the rapid growth
we've already seen using the BareSkin/Charlotte blueprint."
Ellis concluded, "We are making a name for ourselves and Nu Image MedSpa as
a force to contend with in the medspa industry. According to the 2004 ISPA
Spa Industry Study, US revenues for the spa industry exceed $11.1B yearly.
The spa industry remains the fourth largest leisure industry in the US, as
revenues continue to surpass those of two very well-known industries --
amusement/theme parks and motion picture box office. Each day and new
endeavor brings our company continued growth, and we believe Winsted will
accordingly provide greater and greater value for our shareholders.
Entrepreneurial people who are looking to capitalize on the exploding
medspa industry are inevitability going to want to work with a premiere,
rapidly expanding firm that knows the industry inside and out. We
faithfully feel that Winsted is the logical choice."
good deal for me here I bought the bottom
not sure, but it was his post that caught my eye in the first place, last week, and I also noticed him mentioning buying more, at .004, just an hour ago
HOw much does averagetrader control?
the bleeding's gotta stop!!!
averagetrader's in on this too...so that makes 4 of us,,,I agree...lets see if we can turn this green again!!! i'm willing to scrape up a bit for more shares!
At least we know that we control a good chunk... I'm going to go out and see if I can find any other big holders.. Maybe we hold this thing up...
So it's YOU 2 guys who are bidwhacking, eh? I shoulda known LOL
sheesh, between the 3 of us, we'll own half the co.!
I ended up with 1,250,000
pokerdv8-- I have alot of my shares between .007-.008.. I just picked up another 400k at .004 and just a tad more @ .005. How much of your 2m did you get filled?
This is crazy every time they fill some of my order the price goes down,, what's with that?
Ok I am convinced this is a dog ,, but I think I am going to buy some here any way 2,000,000 .005 shares here goes
what's happening wed?
yeah, still in, and if i had the spare change, i'd pick up more. even if, hypothetically, this is being manipulated by Ellis, he'd probably be reloading right about now, for another round, and the next PR!
Sucks to think about it that way, but even in THAT light, there's money to be made in this.
His PR's are starting to catch attention (providing the recent frenzy wasn't his manipulation), and the huge swings can easily be seen to be profitable.
My guess would be that he wouldn't totally dump all his shares until it's atleast reached shell value...that's IF he IS manipulating this.
Either way, there's enough substance to WHLI to possibly be turning around and having some nice potential. All IMHO.
Iowman--Yes, I am still in. Just waiting for news now.. Wednesday I hear. You?
Article on Bashers: How They Operate (full article below, a good read!)
[a repost from the TNOG board by osignal2001]
http://www.investorshub.com/boards/read_msg.asp?message_id=7355225
The criminals are short-selling bashers, and illegal stock manipulators, who repeatedly post outrageous known lies or distorted half-truths with a dogged determination and single-minded purpose – use any means possible to drive the stock price down.
In the small and micro cap market, most increases in value to a stock occur when more people buy more shares. Any such occurrence will automatically result in relentless postings that the company is a pump and dump scheme. The bashers will post as many as a dozen posts at a time under multiple aliases in order to dominate a chat board. On some message boards that give you the option, they continuously post under multiple aliases with a strong sell sentiment, even if they may only post about the weather or some other nonsense post, so that a person visiting that chat board would see an overwhelming majority of the posts and posters with a strong sell sentiment. They disparage the company’s products, employees, management, business plans, and anything else about the company so they can create serious doubt about the company in the minds of investors and potential investors. They post their opinions but make them appear to be facts. They make very slanted interpretations of anything the company does as if they were giving an expert analysis, with their conclusions always being the most negative they can be. When the company issues a positive press release, they state that the press release is all hype, released only to increase the stock price. If an insider makes a sale or exercises an option, they post false claims that management is dumping the stock because it is getting ready to drop. They ask questions about the company and its products such as: “What studies have they done to prove that their products are safe?” and “What’s to say that their products don’t cause cancer?” and “Don’t you think that the SEC should look into the way this company does business?” All comments made are negative or are cleverly and carefully worded posts intended to damage the company, by either giving people the idea that the company’s products are unsafe or cause cancer, that the company’s management is incompetent or dishonest, or to make people think that the company is doing something illegal and needs to be investigated by the SEC.
Honest investors, who happen upon the board, will often get buyers remorse from seeing an overwhelming negative sentiment and immediately “panic sell” the stock, which creates additional downward pressure and serves the criminal campaign well. Occasionally, an investor will attempt to say something positive about the company, but the resulting attacks on them will be vicious, thereby hurting their confidence in their investment decision and causing them to promptly abandon the board and usually the stock altogether. They simply do not realize that the bashers are on the board 24 by 7 because that is their job. That is how they earn their living.
----------------------------------------
I would like to add that in cases such as PYPR a basher could simply be a daytrader who buys at .0004 and sells at .0005 for a 25% gain EVERY DAY! They normally show up in groups...one who posts the attacks and 2-3 who 'sincerely' ask questions and feed the basher opportunities.
Sound familiar?
Iowman--
People that get weak hands and sell for a loss usually bash the stocks they loose out on. (really angry people shouldn't be investing in the market..) The only person that they should be mad at is themselves. Oh'well, we need someone to chase the stock right!?LOL GL WHLI! TOmorrow and next week should be interesting! Lookng for .03+ GL
I am happy with the companies I invest in like I said I am just an average joe like most of us and Im sick of seing people scammed, but I guess thats life , I now only play TNOG you cant go wrong with an oil company thats pumping oil right now Im sitting pretty at .0159 and 84k shares. but I now play on the big board. too many scams here.
FRO is a 40 dollar stock but they pay like 4.00 dividends because they dont like to hold cash for tax purposes so they give it to the shareholders i think the next divi i hear was going to be like 12 bux per share but I have to verify that.
Mark Ellis should be prosecuted
thanks for the info
so who do u like tomorrom?
The people who are buying the stock are all his buddies and some unsuspecting investors.
the only way this company will make you money is if you Naked short it all the way to hell
