I have'nt read all the posts, but looks like CF sold some shares.
That amount is nothing compared to what he still owns. Unfortunately when you own a pubic company, you are constantly under a microscope. Plus, when you own as many shares as he does, 'taking some off the table' for profit won't even phase his potential future earnings, and he knows this.
Hmmmm. I wonder if this means we will get news Monday?? I can't help thinking that he sold these shares, just when things might be 'ready' to be announced? I'm sure he knows that shareholders might possibly frown on this, so a PR, possibly, to make us 'forget'??
Wishful thinking, maybe, but I guess we'll see!
:)
ss9173, someone posted, not sure who it was, that the SEC does not need to approve this. (They actually called and asked someone at the SEC office). It is apparently NEOM who chose to be in a quiet period on their own.
I have a feeling, you are right. Hopefully, it will get resolved soon.
:)
pennyheaven. The quiet period may not be over, today, imo. Apparently, this 'quiet period' is self imposed, by NEOM, and not required by the SEC. Which, I'm assuming means, they can make it go on as long as they need too.
Hopefully, they won't need much longer!
Hmmm. Just got in. Haven't even checked the price, 'cause I'm figuring we're pretty low at the moment. With all this time dragging on and on, without hearing from management, I'm sure some are getting nervous. I'm figuring there's just not anything for them (NEOM) to say at the moment, PR-wise. Looks like they just aren't ready. I'm wondering if the BSDS shareholder thing has this held-up, as well as the 'minor' details to be worked out with the Virgin case.
Oh well, nothing to do but wait.
:)
Bigbiggirl. The pps is doing exactly what I thought it would do, before we get news- It's 'hovering' around the upper .50's, lower .60's. Just like the last pattern, when there was a big run to the .30's, from the teens, then it pulled back, and settled in the low to mid .20s for a couple of months. With big news pending, IMO, we won't hover here for 'months', but it could be a little while, imo.
:)
Wow, a busy day around here! I had a feeling we were going to have to wait a little longer. Everything sounds good though. Thanks, movieguy, and williamfl, for sharing what you know.
Thanks Schep. I agree. There efforts are Greatly appreciated!
Boy, movieguy, you've really sparked my curiousity. Hmmmm. Something out of Washington, possibly?? Can you give us a little itty bitty 'hint' of what you think it is? What does it start with?? (and, actually, what does it end with?) (And, also, what's in the middle, too?)
Thanks!
:)
Thanks Banks! (hey, that ryhmes!) eom.
:)
Wow, things are heatin' up around here. The suspense is driving me ccrraazzzy!
By the way, does anyone know if the court case is open to the public tomorrow, and if so, is anyone going, again?
Thanks!
hi beacon. Well, I'm not sure what to call it, but wishful thinking, and speculating is all we have at the moment. I guess as long as we keep 'speculating' and 'wishful thinking' about NEOM, it's okay. That's personally why I'm here. I look forward to reading about NEOM. I guess the problem is when everyone starts to get completely off the subject, and talk about things completely unrelated.
We're all human, though, and sometimes things get a little dull, while we wait, so I guess it's easy to get off track every now and then.
:)
Yes, if management is not ready for 'Big' announcements, yet, I believe we will stay around this level for a while. Hopefully, even though airclick is pushed back, (which I wasn't aware of until now), we will still hear of the results of the Virgin case, soon. At least sooner than 2 more months!
But who knows, like I said, every now and then, we seem to get a 'surprise'!
Still nothing exciting, today, huh? I'll bet we hover around the upper .50s to low .60s until we hear something. It's hard to say when (what day of the week) management will put out a PR, though. I believe it was on a Friday, 'after hours', that we heard about FCB, if I'm remembering correctly. (They seem to surprise us every now and then!) So, hopefully, the self-imposed quite period, will be un-imposed, soon!
:)
Hi jcg0176. Also, there is a chance that Fortune wasn't aware of NEOM. The good thing is, they are now!
:)
Good post success. Yes, the day it was posted here that Fortune Magazine had the article about Scanbuy, I e-mailed them, (Fortune) and explained that NEOM holds the patents for this technology, and is suing Scanbuy for infringement as we speak. I also stated that I hope to see an article about NEOM soon, to clear up any confusion, and that it is NEOM, imo, that should be on their list of Top 25 new companies for 2005, rather than Scanbuy.
Fortune returned my e-mail, and stated that they appreciated the info, and would forward it to the appropriate editor.
:)
Details of what a Virgin settlement will bring, imo--- MOOOCHO MOOOLAA! :)
Agreed,cloud8. Also, a lot of people are saying that this run is due to Tobin Smith. I'm not so sure that is the only reason.
Foote Cone and Belding, have probably all ready started 'doing their thing', behind the scenes. They're probably telling all of they're 'friends' about NEOM.
I can't remember who it was, (kokonutguy?), but someone posted, a while back, some of the companies that are clients of FCB, and how their stocks were affected after joining up with FCB. They headed, upward, or course.
Anyway, IMO, NEOMS relationship with FCB, might have something to do with this continued upward trend, along with TS.
:)
Get ready to rumble, folks. This is lookin' good! eom.
OT- Right back at cha, YJ! eom. :)
beacon, the question is what Fortune 100 company want to take a 20% stake in NEOM. IMO, all of the others, will sign licensing agreements, eventually too, in order to compete with eachother.
The truth is, we have no clue. But imo, ANY one of the Fortune 100 companies will be a great thing for NEOM!
IMO, it will eventually be All of them! eom :)
I agree. PG will give NEOM 'immediate' recognition. Talk about going STRAIGHT to the consumer! ( After all, it's the consumer that advertisers want to get their hooks into). Just think of all the 'clicking' that will be going on, all over the world. Also, think of all the other companies that will take note of what PG is doing. They will want to get the same exposure, so in order to compete, they'll have to jump on board.
After all, it's the 'products' that have barcodes. What could be better to start this whole thing off, than partnering up with a HUGE, well known company, that has thousands of products, with thousands of barcodes!
:)
futuretech, I apologize, I didn't see that post. The 'sudden' interest came from the clues I saw tonight. Again, I somehow missed your post about PG. Thanks, though. I guess I'm 'intruiged by the fact that it 'might' be PG, because I am a PG shareholder, also. So looks good X 2 for me!
Sorry. I'll try to read through the posts a little slower!
:)
I'm changing my prediction. Last night I said MS. Today I say PG!
That'll Work!! (especially, since I'm a PG shareholder, too!)
:)
Just finished reading through some posts I missed. JP- I would also like to thank you, (and all of the other longs, and the longer longs, and the longer than longer longs, and the longs that were longer than those longs, too), for all the hard work you've done. I'm sure many have had 'moments' of occasional doubt. Yes, okay, me too, (but, lol, you already knew that!) And if it had not been for all of those informative, and inspiring words of wisdom and encouragement you've posted, who knows what a lot of us would've done. Heck, we might've sold all our NEOM shares for shares of ****. (Just Kidding!)
No, seriously, Thanks a Million, for everything! (pun intented)
:)
Woogerbear! You were right this time!! eom
:)
Thanks rotorhead. I thought it was 45 days, but I wasn't sure if the same rules applied for aquisitions, as they do for IPOS.
YEA!! It's getting close!!
:)
Just got in. CNBC says there was a brief Market sell-off today due to a terrorist threat at the Capitol. Interesting, because NEOM held strong. It seems, that no matter what happens, investors 'in the know' definitely don't want to loose their NEOM shares!
:)
Wow. Looks like we're going to have a very strong opening. eom.
:)
Thanks dletheo1. Yep, I see good times ahead!
:)
Grace, Yep, You've got me pegged. I got in @ .13 early Dec '04.
So, I'm pretty happy right now, but 'patiently'(lol), waiting for more action!
Great post BTW!
:)
Thanks Pclick. Yes, SAIC is a HUGE partner to have on our side! That was the biggest factor for me, when I decided to buy NEOM. Even now, if I ever feel a little anxious, I name off all the partners NEOM has, to remind myself of the potential here. And SAIC is at the TOP of my list!
:)
Thanks lesnshawn. I know, with NEOMs patents, they won't face near the competion as say, a company like, well, MOBL. Semacode had me a little stumped, however, since the codes are different than barcodes.
Either way, it will be nice to 'finally' have the patent issue behind us!
thanks again
:)
You're right yellowjacket. I knew there was probably another 'clue' I was forgetting!
Yep, it's looking more and more like Mr. Softie.
:)
Boy, SOG, you sure work hard around here! Good job. I'm really starting to think it's Microsoft. They had an article out last fall stating that they will be launching they're new platform by early summer 2005. Neom had a press release last Aug. stating that Paperclick was being embedded in Windows enabled mobile phones. This week is the show in Vegas. (which I forgot about until tonight). And also, didn't someone mention that Microsoft is known for taking 20% equity stakes in smaller companies? Plus, I'm sure Mr. G would love to get a jump-start on Google!
Hmmm, possibly, lots of obvious clues here?
:)
If I'm not mistaken, I thought the SEC has 45 days to approve an aquisiton, once it is reported to them. Does anyone know how close we are, or if we are past 45 days?
Thanks!
lesnshawn. Maybe I'm missing something, but I'm not sure how that relates to NEOM? Semacode is still considered a competitor, I believe?
Don't feel bad, pennyheaven, I think it's getting to a lot of us. The shareprice retracing, IMO, shows that many others are feeling anxious as well. This quiet period has gone on for what seems like forever. Plus, I think some of us thought we would've heard something about Virgin by now.
Hopefully, we'll be hearing something soon. I can't imagine this quiet period lasting much longer.
:)
Wow. where is everybody today? Sure is quiet around here! eom.
