BonnieD, I just had to reply to your post but yes you are correct. There are posters on here that claim to be big wall street investors and even retired they are so rich but yet follow this stock,have no shares and post daily. It is the most ridiculous thing ever but it will continue no doubt. Good day to all on the board.
Truth, I agree that the FINS will be out in January if they were going to release them. If they released FINS now without 4th qtr 12 included it would leave a huge grey area and they don't need that. They need to release them and come out of the gate running into 2013.
DR, I have a serious question for you. How much of your portfolio is invested into penny stocks? And how long have you been trading?
Handle, educate me about VFIN?
No Bell not at .0007...actually at .0014. You sit on the side lines and watch and 'learn' and let us penny flippers have some fun. You are rich and old and retired anyway. Please let us kids have some fun before you rain on our parade.
Wealth, EZ 10 bagger here plus... I have bought before at .0005 and sold at .0040 within a few months. The best part about this stock though that it's a no joke real company and so that fact adds a twist when trying to buy and flip. They (the company) are not trying to pump/promote and pawn off this stock to the lambs and then go sip cocktails on a yacht like so many other penny plays. This is the real deal. I can honestly say that I have not come across any other penny stock like this one and I have followed many hundreds over the years.
DR, volume high day on record was 11/1/12. with 19,694,183 traded.
DR is right in all of his concerns actually but the reality is that a penny stock can't be compared at all to a stock trading on NYSE or NASDQ. Probably 95% of the penny stocks are fake companies and so CPSZ is going to naturally be included in that category when they don't release FINS as promised...it's the natural reaction from shareholders. The difference here is that CPSZ has a real product and nobody is arguing that fact. We are disagreeing however on the final outcome and future of the company and stock price and that is more of a debate really and a guess. Someone will be right and someone will be wrong. Hopefully some of these bigger investors like DR and Bell will help spread the word in their circles if CPSZ does come through with some good audited financials. Are they late with these FINS...absolutely...are they continuing to move forward with installs...absolutely....are they showing effort...absolutely. All signs point to a group of people trying to make a go of this and seeing the glass as half empty or half full is an individual choice.
Spooky, I'm with you all the way in your beliefs about this stock and company..The people on this board posting their dooms-day theories don't know much about penny stocks, from their own admittance, and keep coming on the board and crying foul. Most of them are not even shareholders and they just like to blog about stuff so take it for what it's worth. The stock could go rise five cents and they would still probably have something negative to say.
Bell, so when is this prediction of yours going to happen? If it doesn't go to that level do you offer apologies or say that you were mistaken? How does that work exactly.
LawDog, I was mainly referring to advertising right on the Kiosk screen while the machine is either in use or even just sitting idle and ads streaming across the display screen. Either way I would guess it is something that will happen.
Surf..LawDog...I believe there is also huge potential in advertising income from lawyers and other businesses who will want their services displayed on the Kiosk screens. I see that as being a real big deal in the near future.
Surf, well said. It's so easy for someone to post the words 'dilution and dumping' by the company but that's the obvious thought because of the very nature of penny stocks. They are self appointed experts and nothing more.
Bell, you are a hard person to follow. So, now you are saying that after all the posts that you had bought this stock..... and were staying in and were prepared to lose it all and take the 'gamble'......you are actually not in this stock? Is that todays claim?
Surf...sending out good wishes to you as well.
Fish...what about a 57% loss. ?? What are you referring to?
OK, no more sleuthing for me. Welcome aboard Bell. Please just treat us like fellow shareholders and not like fools. Deal? If you are telling the truth you now have skin in the game so we are all on the same team.
People, Bell said yesterday that he may get some if the 'Fins were good'...check his post. So today the story is that he bought some a few days ago which would be last week. He is all over the place with his BS. He needs all of you to believe that he had some sort of insight on the double that occured yesterday so he doesn't look like he lost out on the run up. Bell, I think you need to check your posts before you run the mouth.
LawDog, you are correct about the message board being for all opinions. Quite frankly I believe that Bell is probably an intelligent person but needs to have some respect for the others here and stop the hazing and bullying with the 'better than thou'
attitude.
Everyones treading too lightly regarding Bell. Bell has puffed himself up on this board to be some sort of stock guru but yet he comes over here and bullies the message board with his never ending posts and has no shares. That's just bizarre. Bell get over yourself. Heres one for you. You have been on this board 'to learn' according to your posts and to 'watch the movie' to see how it plays out.
Well, it's playing out like this. You have been watching this stock for a while and you could have gotten in at .0005 if you had any balls...or um....trading wisdom from your illustrious wall street career. If you had any balls your investment would be up about 800% right about now. So, are you full of wisdom Bell? can't spot an uptrend on a penny stock? This isn't like traditional WALL Street Bell and most of us know it. Your like an 8th grader going on to the campus of an elementary school and telling them you know more than them. Quit taunting the board for Christs sake.
LawDog, Todays PR was possibly the most significant to date. There is no way they are going to release this PR and not follow up on it. They have obviously been hearing the concerns of the shareholders and this is the news a lot of us have been waiting for. Very nice.
SurfCast was right on about a PR. That's what I'm talking about now!!
Fast Fish, you are right... I was wrong about the post. The reason there are no fees during those hours is because the windows are closed and you can't force people to pay a fee just because a window is closed. Those hours would be very low volume use anyway and it's a great strategy by CPSZ to offer this because people using the Kiosk during those hours will get hooked and start using them during window hours also. The Kiosk line is definitely more popular than the windows.
Tropics, Fast Fish is dead wrong. I am in the jsils at least twice a month putting money on my brothers books and even when the window is open people are still using the Kiosk way more and the line is way longer. The fee is nothing really and I think that people like not having to interact with the jail staff. So saying that people don't use the Kiosk's when the window is open is just dead wrong and reckless posting.
LawDog, I heard that it was an issue of the new commissary contract and they use the competitor for Kiosk services, so i guess that could be union related in a way. EZ CARD is partnered with Canteen Services and when they get a contratct so does EZ CARD. In any event it is not the end of the world as you said earlier. No one is dumping shares today on this news and there are so few people really in this stock anyway that nothing will happen. Financials will spark new interest.
HOR4123, That is a great post my friend and you hit the nail on the head.
Fellow MB subscribers. I am new here and have been reading this board everyday and am also a shareholder. Is this current pattern of posting the norm?? because if so it seems like a guy with no shares of this company is the main voice on here? and he posts his negative comments on this board for the purpose of what? and he then goes on to let us know how much he made in another stock?? Does this about sum it up? Anyone?
LawDog, I read all the posts and want to point out something. Since when did Bell ever own stock? Wasn't his angle that he just likes to 'watch and learn' and he loves to learn. Now he says he was out at .02 It's all pretty funny how the bashing goes on message boards but I just wanted to point this out. There are a lot of new members though and a lot of good bashing going on and that is usually a good sign of things to come.
DR, the post does smack a little of other sentiments and opinions from this message board except the last part about how there could be reasons for current financials not being released beyond the obvious reasons of......they don't want to, don't care,aren't making money, etc.... They are still moving forward with installations and that is all I care about at this point. It's a long term play for me.
LawDog, I am as positive as they come. I have a close relative that is a certified big time stock broker and i saw him recently and asked him about this stock. His first comment was that penny stocks are not investments and are like making a bet in Vegas. He did get back to me though with this comment. It was his opinion that for a penny stock and if they were to ever release financials and be making a profit this stock could rocket to .25 cents in no time at all. He also said that he has never really heard of a penny stock that wasn't a shell company and a sham so just the fact that they are a real company with products in use was a huge plus. He said that audited financial's would be a game changer for this company but without them not much will happen probably because the gamblers are already in this game and sitting at the table and new blood won't likely appear without some news. It was also his opinion though that since they did release financials for 2010 and are signing new facilities pretty regularly and expanding there could be numerous reasons for holding back their current financials that go beyond what people can, or want to understand. I took it as an interesting opinion from a person who is neutral and knows a thing or two.
LawDog....great post! I can't see this company going anywhere but skyward.
LawDog, I am new to the board and have read all of Tigers' posts. He definitely is not a fan of this company and may not even be a share holder? However, that aside, here is the real question. Let's give his claim some clout for a second. He has a source at Rikers and the Kiosk contract will not be renewed for whatever reason. What does that really mean in the big picture? Losing a facility is not that big of a deal but what is a big deal would be the reason behind the contract not renewing and it would have to be something like equipment failure, or licensing issues(as he keeps mentioning) to probably have any impact on the company. As we have seen the stock can fall without any news at all (good or bad)so there is probably not much more damage that can be caused by losing a facility.
With that said though this guy is no doubt a basher and he has an axe to grind and doesn't want to see anyone benefit from owning this stock. You know how the Kiosk is working at your facility so you can vouch for the reliability of the units I would imagine?
I think this stock is now just being treated like any other penny stock play. After reading every post on this MB for the last 6 months there is something that I believe is being overlooked by almost everyone. This company has never done a Pump & Dump like most penny stocks. There are no frivilous PR's being released and no spam email promotions either. When the company does put out news it's about another facility that signed up or some other tangible, positive news. Everyone would probably agree on this.
So, even though the stock price is tanking right now I still think this company is not your typical penny stock play and will prove to be a winner when the wrinkles get worked out. Just my opinion, nothing more, nothing less. Their Kiosk processes at least two transactions per month from me and it has been a great service.
I called E-Trade this morning on an account issue and while I had an agent on the phone I asked him why the trading action on CPSZ could be so unusual. People selling for a $3 gain and his comment was that the small action like that could very well be from 'stop loss' orders that are in the Que. It's computers selling stocks. He said it's easy to always say someone is manipulating the stock but hard to prove.It will be interesting to see how this one pans out in the long run. I use their machines twice a month and it is a great service/product.
LawDog, I think this guy is a disgruntled ex-employee.
RJT,
I like your post and you understand that this company needs to be able to show a profit before they release the financials.I don't think they are holding back to spite anyone they just need good numbers to release and will wait until the fins look great. When they ever do come out, and if this company is showing a profit this will skyrocket overnight. I like these guys because they have a real product out on the market (I use it twice a month)and they have never released any 'teaser' PR'S and never any pumping email promos like the rest of the penny stock world.
I was at the jail again over the weekend and there was a lot of people using the Kiosk.
I think he meant a 'reversal of fortune' for the stock price...meaning the price will rise.
Nugurl, Take the advice of no poster on this message board and make your own decisions. There is sometimes information posted on this board that is factual and can be verified by the website or internet. IE: how many facilities the Kiosks are in and many of those contracts can be read online at the citys websites for example.
So,other than everyone agreeing that this is a real company with a real product, there are simply the usual suspects here on this message board. Some predicting the end and some predicting a big run. Reading the posts that link to articles for example have always been helpful for me. I do not say what side of the fence I am on and I don't make predictions or rant about my opinions.
Good luck though and welcome to the MB.
It seems that the posts on this MB are dominated by the same few who like being heard and like having the last word. In any event something we can all agree upon is some people will be very wrong about their predictions and some will be very right. It looks like this MB is like a dueling platform for now. It's like when two really fit guys square off in front of a nightclub and each guy rips off his shirt and yells to the other one how they are going to knocked out. And then, all of a sudden one guy was very right and one guy was very wrong.
