CBYI hit the 3 at 10:26 and it stayed there until some dingbat whacked the bid for 10mil.
MMs have until May 9 to implement the change. UBSS and ETMM have already complied.
Effective February 11, 2011, and May 9, 2011, are new FINRA rules that
extend certain Regulation NMS protections to quoting and trading of
over-the-counter (OTC) Equity Securities.1 For OTC Equity Securities, these new rules
require an OTC Market Maker, subject to certain exceptions, to display
the full size of customer limit orders that improve the price of the
marker maker’s displayed quotation or that represent more than a
de minimis change in the size of the market maker’s quote if at the
best bid or offer (BBO).
More new rules found: http://www.finra.org/web/groups/industry/@ip/@reg/@notice/documents/notices/p122114.pdf
Their bid is only 10% of the ask. I'm going to like this new FINRA rule that requires MM's to display the size of their limit orders.
In a PR from FBCD on Thursday, March 24, 2011, the CEO wrote, "The shares outstanding as of filing date were correct, however in process is the cancellation of 39.5 million shares." This is probably where the discrepancy originates. It is safe to assume that the shares will be canceled before profits are realized.
EDIT: Also, Super Rad Toys was born in October 2010, so anything from before that date as it relates to the current company should be taken with a giant grain of salt.
Here's the Chairman/Treasurer/Secretary/CEO's Facebook profile: facebook.com/people/Gerard-Dab/583427773 See if he'll friend you.
It worries me that the VSHC CEO is also the treasurer. Not much oversight in that situation, IMO.
Progress Report issued. The only new news I see is: "The Company is presently interviewing qualified applicants for the position of CEO and CFO of RGI, who are then expected to become the mine manager and comptroller respectively for the Ruby Gold project."
Go, NBRI!
All stocks drop if they "don't get the right news."
This stock has never traded above .4 because they weren't worth it. Now, with deals signed--and in progress--with major artists/brands, a store in one of the trendiest spots in So Cal, an online store ready to launch, and Comic-Con coming, this stock has great potential.
It will not be realized until around Comic-Con, IMO, because that's when any major announcement will get the most bang for the buck.
Smart money knows to accumulate FBCD now while shares are cheap; and great things will happen in July.
Thanks for sharing this.
Finally! Some good, no, great news!
You're right; I see no substantive changes. They need a lot of help re their site: the copyright is out of date, the stock graph curiously ends in Feb. (after a nice gain no less), the Facebook link goes to a page for a "meh" toy that's not part of Super Rad's core, and the Twitter account has not been updated since last year.
Facebook and Twitter are marketing tools that don't require much attention to keep fresh and interesting. Why isn't FBCD Super Rad taking advantage?
What reason did you have?
The big news is that they didn't pay their hosting bill. That's why accounts get suspended.
Gold soars to record in sixth straight session
Reuters reports:
"SINGAPORE — Spot gold surged to a lifetime high on Friday in thin holiday trade, hitting a record for a sixth consecutive session on a weak dollar and factors ranging from geopolitical uncertainty to inflation concerns.
Silver also raced to its loftiest in 31 years, notching the milestone for a seventh straight day and outstripping gold's weekly gains by a huge margin.
The ongoing euro zone sovereign debt crisis, unrest in the Middle East and North Africa, rising global inflation, and most recently worries over the fiscal stability of the United States have fueled the record-breaking rally in these precious metals.
Spot gold rose to an record of $1,512.50 an ounce, before easing to $1,507.69 by 4:53 a.m. EST, on track for a weekly gain of 1.5 percent -- its sixth consecutive week of gains.
Spot silver hit $46.69 an ounce, its highest since 1980, on course for a weekly rise of 8.4 percent, its biggest weekly increase in two months."
Silver is the new gold, and NBRI has hundreds of thousands of ounces of silver in just one of its properties, Silver Leaf.
"The Silver Leaf Property also includes the rights to the surface ore dump from the nearby Arlington mine. According to BC MINFILE 082FNW152, this surface ore represents proven reserves of 43,114 tonnes at 15.68 ounces per tonne silver, which equates to 676,238 ounces of silver."
It's a great time to be an NBRI shareholder!
Found this on an old forum post:
Not sure. But Steve is based in Houston. Contact him and maybe he'll buy you lunch. :)
Why not contact Steve and take him up on his offer (mentioned in the intro)?
"Steve is inviting ANY investor--no matter how few or how many shares he/she holds--to meet with him in Houston, TX, Omaha, NE or the Philadelphia/New York City area (those are where the main hubs of Tivus's activities and facilities are) at their convenience and he'd be glad to give a guided tour of the Tivus operation, from A to Z. In addition, he's offering to pick up the hotel and dinner tab for those investors. As, well, the hotel where the investor will be staying will be equipped with the Tivus suite of products."
The sale includes about 2400 hectares according to the filing's exhibit.
"North Bay has agreed to sell and otherwise transfer its 100% undivided interest in the Slocan North Properties in the Slocan Mining District, British Columbia, Canada (hereinafter called the “Acquisition” or “Acquisition Tenures”) as set forth in the attached Schedule "A" to ARGENTUM on the terms and conditions set out in this Agreement."
Good timing for NBRI; and I hope the share price trend reverses in response. GLTA.
I was confused by prof read. I thought it maybe meant professionally read.
You're right, though. LeClerc needs to proofread FBCD's PRs. Bad spelling and grammar reflect unprofessionalism.
True, but an 8000-piece order isn't exactly earth-shattering. I'm talking about orders that have the power to move share prices to the stratosphere.
Prof read their flings? WTH does that mean?
FBCD's/Super Rad's busy quarter will be focused around Comic Con in late July. That's when the new products are unveiled to the retail channels and deals struck. If you're expecting any earth-shattering deals announced before then, you'll be disappointed.
TL;DR I'm optimistic about NBRI next week.
Looking at the charts kiwisteve posted, I'm really liking the A/D line. It's near its peak after this week's mild pullback. I have to think the float is getting awfully tight.
I'm a bit concerned about the RSI starting to trend down. Some news would be nice.
Looking at the period of March 7-21, we may see a repeat of that next week. I see a pattern: a run-up followed by a week or two of profit-taking, but the SP never crosses the 50% retracement (except for large blocks of intraday sales (see sales chart below)).
Below is the 3-mo chart with Fibonacci retracements beginning April 1 (in red) and the 2-week profit-taking in yellow box. Note how it drops below the moving avg before bouncing back. Of course, during that period the accumulation was half the level it's at now, which leads me to believe that we will have more double-digit percentage gains next week.
Today's sales:
We must also consider how the govt shutdown will affect the EB-5 approval process. That may already be factored into this week's performance.

An interesting development. I went back to the interview only to find that that site has been suspended. Oh, well. Yes, Mr. Leopold did say in the interview that he thought the share price should have at least one number to the left of the decimal.
I think, though, that most CEOs of publicly traded companies want their share prices to be higher.
The interview is fairly out of date: late 2008. I wouldn't place much value on it today. I've transcribed the first half of it:
I: Would you please briefly describe your business? How long has it been in existence? Who the principals are and their experience levels.
P: North Bay's been a mining company since 2006, early 2006, so approximately three years. We focus on exploration, as you mentioned in the intro. Primarily we look for precious metals such as gold, silver, and platinum, but also include base metals such as copper, zinc, and [unintelligible]. We operate primarily in British Columbia, Canada. We currently own about 100 mineral and placer claims covering approximately 40,000 acres. Most of these properties are early-stage prospects, but they've returned excellent assays from earlier development. And, as we recently announced to shareholders, we're in negotiation to acquire an operating mine in the U.S., which, if successful, that will be our first U.S.-based property.
We have a unique business plan which is based on what we call the generative business model. This is designed to leverage our properties to near-term revenue streams during the early stages of exploration and development and well before the mine actually opens. This model allows us to minimize risks by outsourcing development, receiving advance payments and equity from our partners, and we generate revenue streams while preserving our own capital.
For myself, I developed a business plan instituted in 2007. Just by way of background, before coming to the company I had almost a decade of commodity trading experience primarily with gold futures. I'm a registered commodity trading advisor with the CFTC. As you are probably aware, commodities trading requires a high degree of understanding of the challenges mining companies face, as well as the market forces that dictate supply and demand fundamentals. So I'm pretty well grounded on what was needed when I came into the company.
I also have a technology background, and that allowed me to quickly incorporate new technology that is now available that assists us in locating, targeting, and acquiring new properties in a very cost-efficient manner.

Go, NBRI
I don't doubt that. But getting fuel and supplies to the portal this year may be delayed. The portal is at the ~4800' elevation. I'm keeping my NBRI Ruby expectations realistic (maybe pessimistic as far as the weather's concerned), but that's just me.
If any statement needs an "IMO", it's that one! LOL
Snow pack at and round Ruby Mine portal: https://s3.amazonaws.com/Autopov/Capture+(2).JPG
IMO, this may delay start of mining. Ski resorts south near the 80 summit are estimating that they may have enough snow to be open on July 4th.
You might want to find out how much snow is still on the ground, though. Those gravel roads don't get plowed . . .
"More than 61 feet of snow has fallen in the Sierra high country so far this season, second only to 1950-51, when 65 feet fell, according to records kept by the California Department of Transportation."

I concur. I got in on NBRI on Feb. 23 and made several purchases since. I've already doubled my investment. The momentum is building . . .
Being Captain Obvious here, NBRI always sees a bit of profit taking after a big run up like we've witnessed this week. I'm holding steady, waiting for this stock to reach its true valuation in the dollars.
Why do I think it's a dollar(s) stock?
- Ready-to-mine gold at Ruby
- Silver claims (silver on track to hit new highs)
- Rare earth plays (China has stated that it expects it will need to import rare earths in the future as its deposits are not enough to meet future demand).
- Non-dilutive financing plan in progress (EB-5) with bridge loan financing/line of credit available as a contingency (Tangiers).
- Company is creating operating units now to handle future growth (that is, let Perry do what he does best (locating properties, striking deals, managing) while getting mining professionals on board to handle the dirty work (running the mining division)).
- A nice diverse portfolio of joint ventures and claims.
It will be good for FBCD to clarify in the near term which shares are being cancelled and any progress on the Form 3 investigation. The big news will come in the weeks leading up to Comic-con July 21-24, 2011. That's this company's time to shine. If you can't hold that long, well too bad for you.
Wow. You think that's real? Not a chance. It's very slick CGI.
And Sidney is the licensing genius. He sees opportunities where others see nothing. FBCD is in very capable hands, and with the capital that a public company can supply, the sky's the limit. IMO, of course.
But, contrary to your statement, Sidney Richlin is listed on the website as management.
