What do you expect. They've been delusional about the company for years and now they're really stuck. No one wants to buy so what else can they do to keep their spirits up?
You know, whistling in the dark, really dark (company).
Did I say I was a bagholder, I mean shareholder?
I know if I was a shareholder and got good news I'd make sure the company posted the information. Besides, companies don't hide good news. They would simply post on their website like every normal company does.
I have no evidence since the company fails to provide such. At least I'm not losing
You are locked in, losing, have no credible information if you have anything at all, and stand to lose it all.
I prefer my position.
OK. lost $5million a year for four years - since I've been following the company.
Great company. Plays peek-a-boo with the public and hides its results.
How do I know that they've lost again? Because there is no evidence to the contrary. Trends tend to continue.
Last year the company anounced that they needed to raise money to be able to continue. Their last public announcement on the matter. Since then several senior officers have departed.
Is that a good sign? Maybe lets them survive for a few extra months. That's about it untill there is evidence (audited financial statemehts - which you do not have) are pubished.
More than enough shares.
You've admitted that you know nothing. You keep repeating the same nonsense mantra year after year.
Buy when you can and never sell.
Great investment strategy for a growing, profitable company, perhaps, but not a pink sheet company that's not reporting and has been losing $5 million a year for a decade or so.
There is no evidence of a sudden change of path especially if the R&D people depart.
But hey, that's your strategy, so stick with it.
There is absolute silence abuut the company's financial performance.
Oh Joe!
You contradict yourself in your last message.
First you say:
Some will try to tell you I would like people to buy TelVue shares and nothing is farther from the truth.
Two sentences down ou then say:
Yes I would also like people who own TelVue to buy small lots under 100 shares because the stock is so very low.
And then you say:
This one is not a good one for flippers.
Of course it's not for flippers. First, the shares are so illiquid, that you can't buy it without driving up the price and second you can't sell it as there are no buyers. Thirdly, the sp has not moved in months nor have there been any sales. Dead market for TEVE.
As for Brighcove, their market cap is $200 mill, they are growing revenues and hve six analysts following them with a 1.7 rating (buy) and they have cash to carry them for a few years in necessary.
Yes, no comparison all right.
T
The market's really impressed with all these announcements.
Zero to a zillion in one year after being broke at the end of last year. Hmmmm. Chances not so good I'd say.
Someone really needs them. That's why no shares have traded in two months.
Fortunately I'm not a shareholder. Besides I wouldn't sing any such thing. I hate secrecy. Besides, what if I talked in my sleep?
I know the reasons.
Confidentiality agreements with potential purchasers of companies, yest, but not with public shareholders. Please give an example of the same.
In my forty plus years of investing I've never been asked to sign a confidentiality agreement by any company whose shares I've held and I never heaerd of such a thing either.
Your response had nothing to do with what I said/asked.
A company that swears its shareholders not to reveal their financials can't be very proud of them. I've never heard of such a thing. Have you? I seriouly doubt they'll do that.
I understand that that's how short selling works, but what evidence is there that TEVE sells have been sold short? None that I can see or that anyone here has been able to demonstrate.
Just because it has been done with some companies does not nencessarily mean that it's been done with TEVE. This is not the ideal company for shorting as:
No need for public funds (at least till now) that would force the company to raise funds at lower and lower prices
Very few shares traded over the last severl years making it difficult to make any real money
Even if there had been shorts TEVE would not have suffered from that as Mr. Lenfest was providing the funding and the company did not have to raise funds from the public.
The shares bought and sold by the public had no benefit to TEVE as money simply changed hands between investors.
So there goes another of your myths.
You really think people are going to go through all kinds of gyrations on a nanocap company with minimal trading to short?
Why TEVE when there are thousands of much better targets? Please explain.
I understand why you BELIEVE it, but evidence says the short position is zero.
GOOG, AAPL, ABX and others show signficant short postions, but TEVE shows 0, down from 120 a couple of months ago. The site I posted before seems to proide accurate numbers. Beliefs are one thing - facts another.
Well if that's not enough for you then clearly you are not even willing to believe your own eyes. Too bad for you.
What about the short position? Your proof?
Did you not look at what I posted before?
http://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/teve/short-sales
Seems pretty convincing to me.
Here is another short interest site. You were right last year. There were 120 shares short at one point, but they must have covered since as the current number stands at 0.
http://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/teve/short-sales
You haven't come up with your rationae or evidence. I didn't think you could.
Well for one thing this site which shows short positions does not show any shorts for TEVE.
http://www.shortsqueeze.com/?symbol=teve&submit=Short+Quote%99
Second, it would make no sense for shorters to take any interest in a stock which trades (and always traded) in such low volumes.
Your turn.
Could you explain what makes you think there are a large number of shorts out there? Not just ideas but evidence?
You're not sellng (because no one is bying) and you never will. When this goes poof, you'll be able to walllpaper your room with the certs.
Another less likely scenrio, assuming TEVE has something some wants it that they'll ovver Lenfest $4 million or so ($5 a share) and also agree to take on TEVE staff and shut down the company because he is a generous man and cares for the employees You'll get the $5 as well and can get wallpaper of your choice.
If this field becomes serious, the big boys will chew up and spit out TEVE. Why do you think Lenfest finally gave up on the company and set it loose?
Wake up man and stop dreaming in technicolour.
Yes, really.
I think you got it this time.
etc. is corrct.
Did you by any chance notice that he cut his support last year after a decade of pouring money into the company without ever beinjg able to show a profit?
Not every venture of even the greatest business minds results in success. Just as long as a majority do with a few big winners.
Winners also know when to quit. That's what you's seeing here.
And now why would Mr Lenfest get nothing? Because you dreamed it?
He didn't become a billionaire by being stupid in business.
So you see tripling the number of shares as a dividend? A financia and stock market geniius!
A dividend is cash paid shareholders out of company PROFITS.
It does not increase the value of the company, does not increase the value of the shares you own or bring new money into the company. Everyone, including ;your leader will simply have three times the number of shares and the sp will drop to one third its value.
It will make it easier for buyers to buy shares which is something Joe is dead set against.
You mean give you two shares for every one you own?
lol
20% of what?
If no one is selling how can you be buying????
No, I'm right and you are spculating on what will happen.
All I said was that on one is buying. Perios.
However, you may be proven right in the future. Which will still make me correct on what i said.
Is anyone buying?
Doesn't look like it except perhaps for a few on this board who may pick up a few shares here and there.
There is non-stop discussion of dividends and a float of 30,000 shares. In the unlikely event that the company declares a diidend, payments will go to not only the holders of the 30,000 shares but the holder of the 600,000 shares as well.
Also, to calculate market cap, 630,000 shares are used NOT 30,000.
What did the e-mail say?
It's great that you're part of the Microsoft management team and their reasoning for choosing Telvue. Congrats!
