Have you emailed the IR folks and asked them to ask DP for an update on this (being sure to include DP's quote)? Perhaps they can get an update out of him.
He is not the odd man out nor do the majority believe as you do. I believe as sleek does and I have full faith in the direction and the priorities DP is working. I know for a fact that there are many others that believe as sleek does too. Being the most vocal does not constitute a majority. Creating a self fulfilling prophecy by scaring away any potential investors with all the negativity does more harm than good. If I were a new investor I would certainly think twice after reading all the messages posted here because the unfair and undeserved image projected is pretty awful, to be honest.
What I find most interesting is that almost every day we watch the pps open above the previous days close and continue to rise until about 1:00 and then we start to see a slow decline until about 3:30 when we see a dramatic reduction in the pps. Why would this occur day after day?
Well big time flippers for one, buy early in the morning and get the pps up there, then cash out at the end of the day locking in their profits. They can make 10% or more A DAY if they do it right. The only way to beat them is to buy and hold for the mid to long term and forego short term profit so that there are fewer shares on the market.
Finally, it is my belief that there is still a concerted effort to drag TRTC down, as the recent litigation suggests, by unknow elements and I can almost bet you they can be tied back to some of our competition. I hope ongoing investigations will prove this out.
While cases are still in arbitration and/or court, no one is going to tell you anything about anything and whether it happened or didn't happen. I'm sure the brokers would love any juicy gossip they might be able to use against us as we fight for what is ours. Loose lips sink ships.
I can't wait till others are identified in the tortuous interference attack. I'm sure those who are already identified will squeal in order to get a lighter sentence. Will we see known unknowns fall or will they be unknown unknowns? The atmosphere reeks with possibilities.
Looks like my 358 shares divi is no longer restricted and is tradable. Not that I'm going to tho as it would cost me more in a fee than I could get for them.
Well I for one am happy with my investment in TRTC. The pps is a tad below where I bought in at but nothing of major concern and I am confident it will break out before to long, and since I am holding very long term, I expect to profit handsomely from my investment. I have no significant qualms about the management team, the company's development plan, how far along we are in that plan, or the company's communications. It's all sunshine, rainbows, and unicorns from where I sit.
I'm sure someone will have something to say about the TRTC news soon.
wow, if there any shorts in here bet they will be scrambling this morning.
You don't seem to be able to grasp the problem here. Yes, every shareholder has a right to know these things BUT you are NOT a shareholder. Get it? You have counterfeit shares. You aren't entitled to simple, legitimate, important shareholder questions answered by the powers that be. Your counterfeit shares have ZERO equity value. They are worthless. You have no rights whatsoever and unless you fight for a genuine certificate you never will have any rights. It's as simple as that. You bought junk and it is your broker's fault. Go after your broker instead of the people who are trying to help those who are willing to help themselves. I know you don't want to hear that answer but that's the facts, so quit bloviating and do something besides about it.
You didn't even answer the question I asked you. Typical, all bark and no bite.
You are NOT a shareholder. No one is. Virtually all the shares on the market were counterfeit shares. The company received no compensation for those shares and has no LEGAL obligation for them, or you. Megas and Huxley have been willing to help us fight for our right to genuine certs but someone still has to pay for them. No one is getting them for free.
The brokers are refusing to pay for them and this is where the problem stands. You are going to have fight in order to get what is yours. BCIT is acting legally & fairly. It has been doing everything it can to help but the bottom line is YOU have to fight for it.
I wonder just who is throwing whom under the bus, those of us fighting for our rights or the ones refusing to jump in and fight with us? Jealousy is a green eyed monster. The fact is, you are afraid that others are getting something you are not and that is why you are throwing a tantrum.
I agree the OTC is riddled with scammers and thieves and I'm not talking about fighting for my lunch money either. Nowever, those policies and triggers that should have prevented us from being where we are today were created by the largest of the scammers and thieves, the brokers, the SEC, and the DTC. It's an entirely self-regulating structure with no oversight by anyone that is focused on the shareholders so the brokers primarily feel they can get away with murder. It's not going to change if everyone who gets ripped off by them just rolls over.
Please explain how "many shareholders have fought for their BCIT shares, not necessarily at the finra nazi tribunal kangaroo court, but nonetheless have fought on many levels, mostly unnoticed by the larger group, or publicly."
me, me, me. This is the problem with America today. Most are quick to put their hand out when they think they should get something for free but few are willing to put their fist in a REAL fight for what is rightly theirs already.
A lot of shareholders have done, and are still doing just that, putting their fist in the fight for what is already rightly theirs. Some have taken a cheap and less winnable route by going through FINRA, some of them and some others have joined in a little more expensive but likely more successful group route, and still others have chosen the very expensive but most likely winnable route by committing all their own resources to fighting in the courts, not just for themselves, but for all the shareholders who are fighting the same battle.
If you don't have any skin in the game then you have no right to say a frackin word to anyone about what is going on or share in reaping the rewards, if any, when they win. So either put up or shut up. I'm sick of hearing lazy, cowardly people whine over this. They are like children throwing temper tantrums when they can't have what they want. If you don't get a certificate then you cannot, and will not, win, period, end of discussion.
You mean the one dispensary in Clark County that opened? Yeah, guess they got lucky.
18 months may be indeed be long but is it really strong? If one does nothing but express extreme negativity all day long, every day, then that is not strong. It is in fact weak. DP will come through, of that I have no doubt. We just need to be patient. He has a very full plate right now.
No, it was not a lie. It was a target. DP cannot be blamed for situations beyond his control or unforeseen impediments. I wish people would stop expecting perfection in the execution of DP's plans. Sh*t happens. One deals with it and moves on or one doesn't deal with it and gets out. That's the only two options.
It's called faith. Either you trust or you don't trust. If DP or any other Board member is selling shares into the market themselves it would have to be reported to the SEC. If the company is selling shares to raise funds then that is OK with me as we have much in the pipeline that will require significant funding in the very near future. In the end, those of us who stuck by DP and the company will be well rewarded. IMHO
I think DP is damned if he does and damned if he doesn't. This is a new industry and there are going to be bumps in the road. DP has actually done a good job of staying focused and executing his plan. Some people are just impatient for profit and there is nothing DP can do to make them happy. Perhaps this is not the time for them to be invested in TRTC and they should wait until the industry becomes more stable and can show steady growth in pps and profits. It would sure beat stressing out every day. Personally, I am committed, long and strong.
Just added 12K more shares. It's a good day.
Someone needs to sticky this post!
Hahahahahaha, how convenient!
No mention of the reason behind the halt or the COR lawsuit. No reason for the massive increase in A/S during and after the divi payout window. No details on the buyout/exchange rate of current shareholders. Does anyone remember voting on this merger dated dated August 31, 2015? I don't. This is better than management drowning in a river!
Not according to the Nebraska District Court
of course it was a jest. did you not see the "lol"? lol
Dumped my CRGP shares at market price this morning. Took a major mark down but I was still able to get out with my original investment plus about $1K more, meaning I just lost $15K of my divi. 3.5 million shares FLUSHED. That's ok though. I've learned a valuable lesson in trading on the OTC and I learned the location of this board. I'll be a smarter trader next time. Now, anyone got any tips for some high rates of return on some solid pinkies? lol
Is this the same Mario Pino of the BCIT debacle?
I'm out. 3.5 million sold at market. Not a total loss but darn near to it.
Yes, as in the "royal we", as in "We are not amused", lol
We need to keep an eye out for MomoPink so that we can take advantage of their nefarious plan ourselves. As long as we are out before the end of the final scene we could make a killing on it knowing it is always the same MO.
pumper's lives matter!
I'm too old to remember, lol
hmmmm, I've been short then! lol
O I C, you were yanking my chain. Sorry, I'm a tad slow in the mornings, lol
Well, to be honest, $16,000 of that $18,000 was divi money so unless they clawback the divi, it's not as bad as it sounds. It hurts, sure, but I would survive if no clawback.
Not really. I do not say I believed that was the outcome. I said, "let's say I believed...", implying "for the sake of argument let's say I believed...". At this point in time I don't know what I believe.
uh, sorry but I am not a shorter. I don't even have a margin account. I'm afraid you have made an incorrect assumption about me.
Sanctimonious smoke blowing? Is that what you feel I am doing? I've got $18,000 invested in CRGP, a total of 3.5 million shares, almost my entire stock portfolio, how could I possibly be sanctimoniously blowing smoke? Do you think I like possibly losing that kind of money? I am genuinely conflicted over this. I try to live by the Golden Rule so I sometimes put myself through a meat grinder because of that.
But even in a rigged game there will be some honest winners who simply got lucky.
It's true that I cannot know the final outcome but I did say, "Let's say I believe that CRGP will never recover from this fiasco and that if it ever does trade again the only people who would be buying shares would be those who are either deluded or simply uneducated about the eventual outcome of situations like this." This of course presumes FINRA allows it to trade again but even if it does, we may still never know for certain why it was halted in the first place. It is then that I would have to judge for myself what I believe the future of CRGP will be and proceed from there.
I find myself in a bit of a quandary over CRGP. I realize that investing in the stock market is a bit like gambling. You hope fortune smiles upon you and not the other way around. The problem with gambling is someone always wins and someone always loses. The key is making sure you are the winner. Some people do this by analyzing the financials and market conditions and then basically betting on an outcome, up or down. However some people do this by fixing the game or playing to others greed. The first method is morally taking the high ground by doing your best to choose properly based on your own abilities. The second method is morally taking the low ground through deception and fraud.
My quandry is the same as everyones. Am I a person of good morals or one of bad morals? Let's say I believe that CRGP will never recover from this fiasco and that if it ever does trade again the only people who would be buying shares would be those who are either deluded or simply uneducated about the eventual outcome of situations like this. Do I dump my shares as fast as I can and get out or do I suck it up and count on a complete loss?
In the first case I would be taking advantage of the deluded and uneducated by playing to their greed. I would knowingly be contributing to the harm of those individuals and that would make me a person of bad morals. In the second case, even though I stand to lose everything, I would be a person of good morals because I refused to be a party to harming the deluded and uneducated.
It may be easy to make that choice if you are only talking about a couple of hundred dollars but what if, like me, you are talking about $18,000, almost your entire portfolio? Could I live with myself if I took advantage of someone else like that, or could I feel good that I kept 3.5 million shares out of the market that would have harmed someone else?
If I decided to dump my shares, knowing they are worthless, how would that make me any different from the scammers who dumped their shares, knowing they were worthless? Where does good end and evil begin? What determines if you were a good person when you die is not by how others treated you but how you treated others. How do you want to be remembered?
I agree. We need our own dispensary out there ASAP. You can't snap your fingers or wiggle your nose to make it happen though. That only works on TV. There are rules, procedures, and regulations that have to be followed. Now that we are 8 for 8 I think we will see rapid developments towards our goals. I wouldn't be surprised if part of the reason we haven't seen significant buildout yet in Vegas is because these last 2 locations offer us the greatest potential for customers and profit and we were simply waiting for the final vote to pour our resources into them.
I hear you loud and clear and you are most probably right. I am even inclined to agree with you. The stock has been halted though. Its not going anywhere. Nobody is making a ton of money on it and no one is losing a ton of money on it...yet. So if there is even the slightest chance that it might be legit, what is it going to hurt to explore other ideas? Let FINRA, the DTCC, and the SEC do their jobs. They'll figure it all out for us.
