I agree. Lot's of people are off Friday and with just a half day of trading it would be a bad time for significant news. I got in last week at .11 and .12 and was tempted when this hit .40 plus yesterday. Am glad I held. I believe this could be a huge run, in the making, with such a small float. News for next week is much more logical. And if this is promoed effectively, it could go into the dollars.
I would hate to wait over the weekend if I had shorted this yesterday. Quite a gamble. GLTA
Just got in after a couple of days of watching. Looks like one of the better pennies out there. More of a long term than a pump and dump. Thanks for all of the great DD Cjstocksup.
Last week they were ranked around 48,000 so you can see that they are moving up rapidly. Also, getting good reviews. Most of these P&D's are based upon future development of products.
Tagg already has their product available as an App on IPad. Not to be taken for granted. I think the potential from this point until the end of the year could be pretty good especially if they get approval from Android, Windows 8, IPhone, which is their stated goal for the final quarter of 2012.
Each approval will result in a spike and increase the chatter about a possilbe buyout. Should that occur the share price will exceed what APS was shooting for. They did bring awareness to the company. I have been using their site and find it quite resourceful. Anyone shorting this now will not find much left in the well.
My buy executed at 10:42 was listed as a sell on Level II. MM games.
Funny. Your students are dying to post but you won't let them. You have been a member of IH for all of 7 days and the whole time you have been teaching your students how to short this stock. They must be impressed so far.
To me the difference between this stock and other APS picks, is that they actually have a new, well received product which is both timely and in a very hot sector. Maybe you can allow your students to download the app on their IPad or from ITunes(quite an accomplishment by itself). Students that I know that are using TagLikeMe for research are quite impressed, and the site seems to be going parabolic.
I have done quite well with this pick and am riding free shares. Perhaps I could be a guest speaker at your elite school and present an alternative view to investing.
I downloaded Tagg's app on my IPad last week before I bought in. Works great. They said they would be adding apps during Q4 for the others, IPhone, Android, etc. They have until Dec 31st to live up to that claim. I am betting that they will succeed.
Our Pick of the Year: Tagg, the top headline on all 3 of their emails that I received today. It's not over. Sign up for their emails and see for yourself. At this point, with a shortened week I would much rather be long than short. JMHO
Am in Nags Head, NC here. We have had over 30 hours of high winds and heavy rains, sporadic power outages. The winds are as strong now as at anytime. Tomorrows high tide around 9 am will bring major ocean over wash and the winds are supposed to get worse tonight along with the rainfall. I really feel sorry for anyone in the path of this storm because of its size, growing strength,and slow movement.
On a happier subject, I got my shares on Wednesday for 19.5. Almost sold on Friday when it dropped to .25, but am glad that I held. I believe we should have a good week ahead of us when the market reopens.
Good luck to all of you in the path of Sandy. An epic storm.
So, primarily, what you infer is that machines are doing the bulk of the trading. I would assume with some sort of human input.
6.63 million shares traded today at an average price of $5.96 per share.
That is $39,514,800.00 invested by machines or their proxies, or maybe an acutal human or two.
I think that any short-sighted individuals may be in for an interesting week.
Trying to learn these pennies. How do I access the APS Newsletter. TIA
Edit: After reading all of the posts today I don't believe there are any unsuspecting traders left here. I believe everyone here is fairly learned and has a good idea what is going on.
The focus is on Faber not Granite.
Fred. I am using the TRBY ergonomically correct mouse now that I purchased on line about 5 years ago, that made us all think we would be rich. Works better than any I ever owned. Made some money on that first run. Kept a bunch of shares and bought more as it dropped. Then it just died after it became ICCW. Imagine my surpise when I checked my account today and found out that the ICCW shares I had are actually worth a few hundred dollars now. Reverse merger would be my best guess at this point. More posts this weekend than in the last couple of years. That's a good sign. We'll see tomorrow if there is some substance here.
EDIT: Form t transactions after closing are quite common with this stock. How come you only comment on the sells and not the buys? Just curious.
Dog, well help me out here. I am looking at the trades today per Investors Hub and it shows 6,820,372 shares bought and 2,240,982 sold. To me that means 3 plus shares bought per 1 share sold.
Also, at 3:53pm someone bought 3,962,786 shares at the bid of .0031. That is a $12,284.00 investment. Apparently, that investor doesn't realize that the sky is falling.
Either way, we are all here to make some money. Doesn't matter if it is on the way down or on the way up. GLTA
But buys outnumber sells 3 to 1. You don't suppose there is any manipulation going on here do you. At least 9 million traded today with over 6 million buys. Nice to see the interest.
You keep calling this stock a pink. It is not a pink. It is a fully reporting uplisted stock. That's why it has value to another company as merger material.
Actually, the merger rumor is one of the few that makes sense of the fact that this company emerged from pinky land, an extremely rare occurance, on 9/21/2011 after over a year of trying to conform with SEC requirements for uplisting.
Why would any company spend all of that time and money to achieve an uplisting if it were not for a golden opportunity.
I made my money a little over 2 years ago with this stock on pure speculation. I kept a bunch of free shares which were substantially reduced by the reverse split. I kept hanging around because of the interest that this stock has had with various concerns.
The new CEO, is in no way accepting this position so that he can pump a stock, that on paper, appears to be relatively worthless. He has a solid history of success. That track record is what fueled the 20 million share trade day last week and the big spike in price during a week that usually is lackluster as people take their losses for the year.
People in the know are investing in the speculative opportunity that this stock offers. The last big run was fueled by the NDD's potential. Speculation, when Faber, former Executive with Waste Management came on board, was that his association with Waste Management would help ASFX in its efforts to sell their NDD, still the only needle destruction device approved for home use by the FDA. The opportunity is here. Let's see how it plays out. GLTA
Dog, Dr P. How about updating the iBox and sticky notes at your convenience. There have been some significant news events since September regarding record quarterly sales, large purchase orders, and contracts.
There seems to be more than enough interest on this board to warrant updated information.
Just a suggestion, I think Danno would make a nice addition, if interested, as a distinguished member of our moderating group. TIA
ASFX up 45% on heaviest daily volume of the year.
Yesterday, nearly $9,000.00 was spent purchasing 319,543 shares of ASFX. Only a little over $3,000.00 was made selling 154,451 shares of ASFX. Yet they pulled the stock down at the end of the day on a couple of small sales. They did the same thing on Monday. Some people are loading up on this stock while MM's keep the price down in spite of what would normally be upward buying pressure.
If you look at the chart you would not even think about buying this. If you look at the daily Level II, this week, you would think something out of the ordinary is going on. If you like to gamble, this seems to be about as good as anything. Less than $300.00 will get you 10,000 shares in a newly listed micro-cap with a couple of products that have potential and interest from the likes of Bayer and Costco. JMHO
Actually, basic economic principles don't seem to apply here. From 12:19 pm today, until the close, 210,423 shares were bought at the ask on 17 trades and 10,100 shares were sold on 2 trades with no increase in the ask.
At the end of the day 214,923 shares were bought and 156,344 shares were sold yet the price drops .0041. Again, not your basic economic principles.
Somebody is buying this stock cheap, with help, and the reason is becoming more and more obvious. It doesn't really matter that much what their losses were in the third quarter. What matters is their future earnings potential and the fact that you have a fully reporting listed company that is really cheap right now.
The fact that with all these mounting losses they continued to pursue the uplisting and actually achieved it should provide a clue. At this point it's worth hanging around. JMHO
Several companies were competing with ASR for the initial private label contract. ASR won because of the quality of their product along with competitive pricing. Fact is ASR's name will be on the nearly six figure check that will pay for the initial order. That one sale will be close to beating some quarterly sales from 2010. Also, other retailers will take note and be informed by ASR that they are doing the private label for Shoppers Drug Mart. It's a huge feather in ASR's hat. JMHO
An initial order of 5000 units for Canada is huge. The population of Canada is roughly 34,500,000 while the population of California is roughly 37,000,000.
SDM is not placing this order as a favor. Their R&D people have checked out the product as well as their marketing department. They see the potential to grow their business with a new innovative product.
It will be nice to hear what has happened with the 100 unit NDD sale to schools in Texas. The NDD is still the wild card here and still the only FDA approved needle destruction device for home use. With proper support, or partners, this stock could soar. JMHO
At this point any kind of profit margin is preferred, and they cannot be achieved if you don't have a retailer willing to sell your product. Can you comment on the disadvantages of being sold at Best Buy or Costco other than having to sell to them at lower margins. Lower margins is the name of the game for big box retailers and there are plenty of manufacturers lined up at their doors trying to get their own products in.
You don't get into Best Buy or Costco flyers as a featured item without being considered a worthwhile product. Certainly, the corporate buyers at these two retailers had other options for thermometers. They chose the one that they thought would sell the best as we approach flu season. That's there job.
Thanks Dog, good luck to you as well. I will say one thing. I kept a bunch of free shares that, had things remained constant, would be worth 12.00 each now. That has been a learning experience.
But the main reason I am still here is that no other penny investment that I have won or lost on, in the past 2 years, has had anywhere near the message posting interest that this stock has. Add to that the uplisting, products in the market place, etc. and I think there is still the potential of at least one more good run as we approach flu season and the Holidays.
Also, close to a quarter of a million shares traded today, mostly above the bid. Obviously, there are others interested as well. GLTA
Sorry sold at .06 bought at .0075 almost a 9 bagger.
Lots of people made money as well. Myself included, almost exactly 2 years ago when I sold at .06 stock that I purchased for .075. The stock is no longer a pink and it's products are in big box stores and there is still the wild card NDD.
With current market conditions, I like my chances here as well as anywhere else, and OBI is the only poster that I really pay much attention too, as he was pretty close with his prognastications 2 years ago when this stock was only a pink. I have owned lots of pinks, but this is the only one that acturally made it to listed status. That's good for something, in my opinion.
The picture is coming up fine. Nice job.
Actually, if you study the transactions, you will notice that 2 buys of 1,000,000 shares each occured, at the ask, when the bid was .044 and the ask was .045.
Then the MM's spread the bid/ask to .045 and .046. The "?" transactions all occurred for .045, for 6,000,000 shares in a total of 4 transactions. It would make more sense that these transactions were buys, as well, since they all occured within a few minutes of each other and all 8,000,000 shares were executed for .045.
The elves are working overtime. Can only mean that Christmas is near.
Analysis Corona $3.75 IApp 2.99
Price I just paid for a beer at my local bar, vs price of one month of Sirius.
I like my sports, Howard is funny, don't need Opray, but my favorite is new music, found on Sirius XMU, formerly Left of Center.
I have had Sirius Radio for 6 years. It's the music that I love, and I tag the songs that I like and then download them from Itunes.
Now I can do it all in one motion, and Sirius gets a piece. Only a true music lover would understand how huge this is.
And I won't give up one Corona to pay for a month of Sirus. I think I can scrape up $2.99 for a whole month. Give me a break!
IPhone App available Thursday June 18th. Just called Sirius at at 1 888 539 7474, regarding my Sirius account. The customer service rep said the App, we have been waiting, for will be available Thursday, the same day that the $99.00 Iphone will be coming out. This will be huge with all age groups. I'm getting 3 new phones with service on Thursday.
New car sales vs used cars. I have had Sirius Radio for 5 years. My first was a Xmas present which I had installed in my car. Once you have had satellite radio you will have a hard time being satisfied with the free product.
Free music, CD player and IPod I have, is not the same. The source of the music, on my CD's and IPod, is Sirius Radio which provides me with the very latest in music.
If I want to listen to a Redskins game on a Sunday, while driving in Georgia, I have it. If I want to listen to Bloomberg, CNN, ESPN, Stern or Indy music it's there, 24/7, and static free.
The monthly cost is about equal to 4 beers at one of my favorite bars. I cannot imagine that this is a burden to anyone that owns a vehicle. It is nothing, compared to taxes and insurance, relative to the pleasure that satellite radio brings to someone that spends a lot of time in their vehicle.
My point is I have had 3 different systems in 3 different late model used cars. None of the vehicles came with Sirius.
It is up to the owners of Sirius to market, to the general public, the unique product that they have, to people that do not have a new car. Now that they have a new lease on life, hopefully that will be one of their goals. An approval by Apple would not hurt either.
I bought the AirO2Bic mouse, nibless software, and mouse pad in September of 2004. Several months before my product purchase, I had bought a substantial amount of stock. I paid 149.00 for the entire package, and the mouse was on backorder for about 4 weeks. I received it in October of 2004.
Prior to that, I had paid 79.00 for a mouse, one of the best available at the time, and had bought many in the 10.00 range. All of these, of course, were useless after a few months, including the 79.00 mouse with the roller ball on the side.
It is now 2 years later, and I am still using the same AirO2Bic mouse, without a single problem. I used the nibless software, and it worked fine, but it is just not something that I myself need to use.
I am always seeing posts that claim the product is priced too high. From my point of view, after 2 years plus, it is a value, with absolutely no discomfort or malfunction with extensive use.
If it were not for my actual experience with a real product, from a real company, that now has a patent, as opposed to a company that claims to have intellectual rights, and no product, I would have sold all of my stock and not just a portion of it, long ago.
I am just as unsatisfied with the current stock price, lack of sales, lack of communication, and lack of interest as anyone here, but I have to believe that the second generation mouse is where the focus is now, for legal reasons, and because of input from much larger companies.
For myself, the product works and was worth every penny. Hopefully, some other companies will see its value, as I have, and get the product marketed by people that know how to sell a worthwhile and needed product in todays marketplace. Torbay's association with HP, the speech by Large at the recent HP event, his CNN interview, and 508 compliance, all lead me to believe there is still hope. The product simply works.
I gambled on this OTC stock like everyone else here. The only difference for me is that this is the first time I have ever bought a product from an OTC stock that I owned shares in. And that, quite honestly, is the only reason I am still here and still have some glimmer of hope for a final positive resolution of my gamble.

TRBY volume over 500,000 last hour, mostly buys.
I will take his writings anyday, over your "Is this a good stock?" repetitive childlish postings. Now on a more serious note, being in the convention business, the fact that Designer Appliances' Booth is right in the middle of the convention hall, just one space from the main aisle, speaks volumes about what the promoters of this Show think about DA. These smaller companies pay the same amount for the same size booth, and location is all dependent on the organizers of the event. It is obvious that the people running the Show want to put DA in the most favorable light possible. The potential here is still huge. I am still using my Quill Mouse that I bought in Oct. of 2004 for $100.00. Cheap, as far as I am concerned, considering the ease of operation, and the fact that I have not had a single mechanical failure, nor do I have any physical disabilities. The one I had before that from March of 2004 was a Logitec, with a rolling ball for the thumb to use. It was virtually useless after 6 months and cost me $59.00, an amount that I thought was a lot of money at the time for a mouse. The current price of the Quill, irregardless of the medical benefits, is only a problem if you are a kid, a student, or a retiree on a fixed income. For anyone else it is a deal, at now less than 100.00 online, for anyone that has the means and puts quality and performance first. Still a gamble here but the only penny stock I have ever owned where I am both using and am very satisfied with the product for well over one year now.

TRBY has had the approval to increase the number of authorized shares. Is it not possible that it could be TRBY selling in order to acquire funds for operations.
Have they set a date for the meeting, and are they going to ask for us to vote to increase the authorized. Would those of us that are long on this stock, have enough votes to determine the outcome of such a vote, should we decide to use our combined voting clout in order to get management to be a little more forthcoming about things, such as how the 508 sales are going, if they exist at all, and to keep us better informed as to what is going on business wise.
Thanks,
The fact that they are out of stock is very good news. That means that they will increase the size of their par inventory to prevent this from happening again. We still have inventory on our site, as does the HP site. Translates into sales ramping up in the second quarter. As long as Tech Depot is not out of stock due to Torbay, then I think that this is the best news I have seen, regarding this company, in quite a while. It shows that the product is being accepted and utilized in the office. Too bad our company does not feel that we as stockholders, especially those of you that participated in the private placement, are deserving of occasional updates.
I think if those of you that participated in the private placement were to let Tom know that occasional business updates would be very much appreciated by all of the longterm investors in this company, as well as help to bring new, longer term investors in.
The PR appoligizing for the late filing would have been much more effective had it come prior to missing the deadline. I know that they are very busy but they should at least consider hiring someone to help with keeping the public informed about what I think could be a very profitable situation for investors, particularly at this level, with sales just ramping up, and with still no indication as to what the 508 Government sales could add to our bottom line. Certainly, after 1 month some sort of pattern should be developing, as to whether or not it will be a significant source for future revenues.
