That bitchy old man who smells funny, talks to himself, and generally has a shitty disposition? Yup, that sounds like me.

so I'm only down 45%
That's because it IS the same interview from 2-3 weeks ago. There is very little, if any, new news here this week. Everything is just being recycled so the new folks can hear it and think its new (HAVE YOU HEARD THIS?!?! This video just posted YESTERDAY, folks!!) and so the old folks who have already listened to it ad infinitum can say "WOW - GREAT INFO!!! THIS IS GOING TO EXPLODE!!" so the new people think it is something new and shiny.
Hope is a free commodity, but can be incredibly expensive. Hope is like heroin...Its fun, it's cheap, it's a great rush, but it can make you do things you would not have done otherwise to try and get more of it.
After watching $CDIX for a few weeks, I think I have the hang of the Make Money with Cardiff Lexington Game(r). I am not a seasoned trader, and I can be slow on the pick-up sometimes, but thankfully I am not stupid (that is just an opinion, I suppose. Do your own DD on that one). Will find out soon enough.
Certainly am still hoping the Acela deal is a thing and goes through. It would be good for Cardiff Lexington (could probably care less, but not much less) and for the small retail investors here like myself...some of whom have their lunch money in this company - literally (they count for a lot in my book).
Lastly, I can not be sure (nor can anyone else, sans an 8k), but my guess is we agree currently seeing the Aug. 13 notes dropping. My guess is that is the dilution. I count between 10-15 million shares worth today. But who really knows where this dilution is coming from? I don't think it just appeared out of thin air or the mysterious past, so that leaves just a few options.
IMHO and GLTA the small retail folks trying to scratch out a couple bucks. If we don't watch each other's backs, few others will.
Ok, I know they can convert anytime past the term of the note, but thanks. I am just trying to pin this following information down...
I did get confirmation that the 13th notes were bought.
My bad...I stand corrected. My apologies.
Been out of the $TTCM loop for too long, it appears.
Poverty...ain't it grand! Anything that turns a couple hundred bucks in your pocket into making you feel like you won the lotto and life's possibilities are endless is just special.
Maybe $CDIX will change that. Dilution honestly does look to be tappering off. Last big block I saw (2.5 milly) was over an hour ago...last I checked.
We should have every kid who hasn't experienced poverty, in the year between H.S. and (maybe) college, experience the adventures of life without meaningful income. Drop 'em off in the middle of an urban area, couple of 20's in their pocket, smack 'em on the ass, and say "see you in a year, champ. Probably".
Think of the character that would build, the eagerness to attend college it would create, and the empathy those young people would have for those less well-off than themselves after that year was over. Providing universal health care and a living wage would be accomplished overnight.
Ahh...fantasies that get the working class through the day.
There are no previous record holders. This category was created specifically for $TTCM. If one person participated in the hunt, it would be a world record.
Just sayin'
So Cunninham et al gave you information verbally that, for one reason or another, has not been released to the public. Is this correct? I am really trying to pin this down.
DISCLAIMER: For whatever value words are worth, I have sold no stock today, nor am I interested in more $CDIX shares at any price.
The September 13th two notes have been payed
It’s a tiny old legacy debt which from time to time was coming in
Slander is spoken untruths, libel is written.
If anything, he would have libeled the company, which he did not.
If that is what you were intending to write...
Admitted, I forgot to add in discount. An honest mistake, and nothing more. So yesterday accounted for $20-$30k, or something, maybe...ok.
I have done my research.
My bad was buying into the unsubstantiated assumption that the Aug 13 notes were dealt with...and pushing the idea myself without firm proof. Maybe they are, maybe they are not. I don't know, as no 8k was filed. It was foolish to make assumptions based on a few days of those shares not being released to the market. And I have no one to blame for that but myself.
Sure, maybe it will all come out in the wash. We will see.
So we were blindsided. The company put out press that was just vague enough to get it by, implying the recent convertibles were paid off. Now we find - oops - ya, one actor wouldn't accept payment.
No matter how you want to play this information - an "oversight", an inconvenient truth unshared, whatever - it was, at a minimum, intellectually dishonest to not only allow but encourage through its PR the belief that dilution due on notes was over for the immediate future. In my book, that just stinks.
If the 20 mil dilution we saw today is correct, that equals somewhere around 100k. How much was the note worth? Are there more lenders we don't know about who wouldn't accept payment? 100k was what was owed on notes due Aug 13. Was this dilution those? We were led to believe (even if only by logic and vague-but-promising PR) those notes were taken care of. What and when is the next shoe to drop...the next "oops, forgot to mention..." we hear from management?
Shady. I can't find it anything but shady and, if not completely lacking in truthfulness, certainly lacking in candor. At least now we know why an 8k wasn't issued. I mentioned in an earlier post why the company's word alone wasn't good enough for many investors. Now, it's not good enough for me either. I am not going to say their PR is worthless, but to me, from now on, it is only slightly, marginally better than if they had stated nothing at all. Legal filings is the only news of theirs I will put faith in going forward.
And what does this say of the Acela acquisition? I am not bashing here, I am truly not, but are there material events occurring with that as well that will lead to later "oops" statements? I have no reason as of yet to believe there are, and I certainly hope there are not (I am still long...for now), but who can say?
I am now about 17% down after today's fiasco. I want that money back. If I can do so Wednesday, I stay in until at least I am even. If I smell one hint of dilution, I am gone. I am a newer, smaller trader, so I don't pretend what I have to say counts for much in this community, and that's ok. But I am angry and frustrated by the company's actions, and I think everyone else should be as well.
This is all assuming, of course, that what $mart_Dinero posted is accurate. No offense intended, my friend, just so many agendas in the ihub community. I wasn't on the call so it is second-hand knowledge to me.
If anyone is of the opinion I am blowing this out of proportion and is willing to relate why, I am, as always, happy to listen.
All IMHO, and GLTA.
Like most businesses, I don't like surprises. Surprises create uncertainty and uncertainty creates greater risk. A couple questions regarding your statement...
A legacy note which Is nearing its end, which company could not pay off is being absorbed
It’s not substantial and should be easily absorbed
So if you read the PR it’s 100% factual
Well, do we agree on that...That everything is going to hell? Or is every decade just rosier than the last? You better off this decade than you were last decade and the decade before that? Set politics aside. Just from a human perspective, you liking the choices this country is making economically & politically? Glad that you have a better economic condition than your parents, and that your kids and grandkids will have it better off than you?
And thats a problem, isnt it? You dont consider these two papers - two of the most established national papers in the nation - as credible. If a writer is liberal, it appears you dont find them credible. If I used an academic, peer-reviewed article as a source, would that be credible? If it was from Berkeley? If it was from the University of Chicago? I mean, what is credible then?
There are rhetorical questions, intended to spark thought/conversation. Not attempting to impinge on your time.
Well, let me say this. I have read articles/statements in the Times and said to myself "Well, that is complete horses---." I was disgusted with their coverage of the 2016 election...So much so I cancelled my subscription. I have said the same of CNN, MSNBC...pretty much everyone, at one point or another, except the PBS Newshour. I don't think I have ever found fault with them, at least to speak of.
The NYT, WP, CNN, MSNBC, ect get too agenda-heavy, at times. Too spinny. It's not that they are factually incorrect (although they all are from time to time...Meadow can get pretty bad...Joy Reed is a waste of space altogether), but they can cheerlead too much. Everything else, as long as one can read between the lines, and as long as one keeps in mind they are presenting the establishment position, you take them for what they are. But "facts"...usually they are correct on facts.
But FOX News? Heritage? Rush? I have found them simply incorrect on facts numerous times. And were talking facts...truths that can be proven to be true or false. And FOX, Rush...They ARE agenda. The whole focus of FOX News is "agenda". Don't know if you watch/listen to either, but they seem to be the paragon of conservative information.
Does FOX relay credible information? The news side obviously more than opinion, and some anchors (Wallace, Shep Smith) more than others (Fox & Friends, The Five), but sure. One has to be somewhat more careful if using FOX as a credible source, moreso than most other MSM outlets, but sure, they can be credible.
The point, and the greater problem our society faces, is how do people like you and I debate a topic - any topic - if every time I source info from what you might term "the MSM", or someone who is a liberal, you appearantly well dismiss it out of hand based on the source?
If the NYT stated that the sky is blue, is that info highly suspect? If the WP prints a story that puts Trump in a negative light, does that mean the "facts" of the story are not true or that the facts should be dismissed because the WP has some "agenda"?
It all seems pretty pointless if facts are only applicable if they come from a source that has an agenda to support "your agenda", for want of a better term.
For example, Hedges points out in "America, The Farewell Tour" that Trump lies pretty expansively (when one considers how much crap Obama got for his one "if you like your health plan, you can keep it" statement, Trump lies a lot more, relatively). Hedges is basically a socialist. Hedges dislikes Trump greatly. Hedges may have even been personally pleased to include some of Trump's lies in his book. He may have even become slightly sexually aroused when he wrote it.
However, does that mean that Trump does not lie frequently, because Hedges said it or wanted to say it?
In my mind no. It doesn't matter. A fact is a fact. One can argue that Trump doesn't lie "frequently", because you define "frequentlt" as, on average, 50 or more times a day. That is semantics, certainly,` but one could make that argument, although it would be a rather intellectually dishonest one to make.
One cannot, however, say the Hedges statement is "wrong" or "untruthful" or "fake news".
One cannot say "Trump never lies", because Trump has been caught telling untruths many, many times. One cannot say "Trump doesn't get caught lying more than other presidents", because indeed he does provably get caught lying more than other presidents.
Those are provable facts, no matter who relates the information about them or why.
Now, I just used the above as an example. The broader question is, obviously, will you accept provable statements from institutions or individuals who you may dislike or who have an agenda?
Is the truth the truth, in other words, or is Trump always right and anything negative written or spoken about him is "fake news"?
I need to know that before I respond, so that neither of our time is wasted. Because if you won't take my word for it when I say "this specific book was my source", tell me basically that if it was true i should be able to find it in the "liberal press", but then tell me the two main "liberal news" sources are "not legitimate news sources", well, there is no way i can prove anything to you.
And lastly, something to consider. I don't know your age, socioeconomic status, race, or anything much else about you. But I ask you this - who in this society benefits if you and I are at each other's proverbial throats? Who would want to keep people like you and I from sharing information, ideas, from discovering common goals, dreams, concerns, problems, ect? Because my friend, those are the people stealing both our wallets.
ETRF has 1.5 milly on .0051
An open letter to Alex H. Cunningham:
I believe in $CDIX. I believe in its management.
Nothing has changed for the negative...share structure, likelihood of Acela deal happening...nothing. This drop in share price is mainly just chasers going after some runners elsewhere (and too late to get much of anything, it appears). That is out of the company's control.
However, these rapid and sizable share price fluxuations are also fueled by a crisis of confidence and a lack of hard, reliable information on the company's part.
I am not demanding an immediate 8k on Acela or asking the company to rush the merger. And yes, I am thankful for both payment of the convertable debt and news thereof.
But every time the share price starts to decrease, we invariably here people start screaming DILUTION!! And we all have to sit and wonder if that is the case or not. We cannot know what we are not told, and because of some of the past actions of this company (actions I did not experience, but are openly discussed), releasing important information in a press release is, for many, not good enough. They need legal paperwork confirming what is related publically. The lack thereof fosters a sense of uncertainty and a hair trigger to sell.
We need an 8k on the convertable bonds. Please, don't just vaguely tell us some were paid...SHOW us they were paid off by submitting a filing...even if you are not legally required too do so.
I am a small investor. I don't have a lot of money in the market. I could lose what I have invested and still carry on, but it would hurt. My wife & I started out our retirement savings late in the game, and I am trying to make up for some of that in the OTC. So I get pretty damn jittery when i see my investments lose 70% of their value in a matter of days. It was everything I could do to keep holding on to shares in your company.
So I am beseeching you - nicely, politely - please, clear up any doubts or assumptions regarding any convertable notes that are/were due this year by issuing an 8k on the matter.
We are all in this together, hopefully all of us with the same goal - to increase $CDIX share price and make Cardiff Lexington a successful and profitable company.
Last person please turn off the lights on your way out.
Well, we tasted greatness for a couple of hours, I guess.
No effing around now. I doubt there was dilution today, but $CDIX HAS TO DROP AN EFFING 8K REGARDING THE CONVERTABLE BOND PAYMENTS!!!
This is getting ridiculous! I don't care if they "have" to drop one by law or not...THEY HAVE TO EFFING DROP ONE!
Come'on, man...support your company. Support your share price. Support your effing long-term investors!
If you sell now, someone will be buying your cheap shares in 15-30 minutes. Guaranteed.
Highly, highly doubt it. Hold tight. There is absolutely no reason to sell.
I suggest everyone just leave Acela alone to do their work. They already had to deal with huge call volume a couple of weeks ago when the merger/acquisition news broke and basically got sick of telling a bunch of random callers "no comment", from what I understand.
If you do call, tell them "Hi! I am an ihubber - that is a free message board for penny stocks. Someone by the name of North American Hemp instructed me to call you and ask for some information on why you are not going to do the $CDIX deal. Please be as detailed as possible!!!"
I am sure they will talk your ear off at that point. Or just hang up.
Just guessing...They want to hit some predefined PPS before releasing 8k on Acela. Nothing saying the deal isn't done already, the ink dry, and parties are just holding the info while they try and coax the SP up a bit.
They should release an 8k on the convertible debt they paid off...even if they don't have to.
I turned green yesterday. Im with ya. Nail-bitting down there at .0015. Thank god we held, ya?
A LOT of accumulation!
Jinx.
TDA is showing a bid/ask or .0055/.0056. With a PPS of .0054, I am thinking we start the day in a positive direction.
Happy birthday! Glad to have you. Hope you do well and all your dreams come true!
Well That's a huge assumption. Got proof?
As opposed to "Hi, were from big business, and we are here to help"?
I will trust the government and the bureaucracy over big business ANY DAY OF THE WEEK!
I have been screwed by big business much more often than by government.
Taxes are already low. Your kids teacher has to beg Kleenex, pencils, and toilet paper from parents...or buy them him/herself. Your roads suck (at least mine do), Your infrastructure is crumbling everywhere you look. Police stations in my city are only open 9-5 Monday thru Friday. Social Security is running out of cash, our national credit card debt is almost equal to our yearly income and we are now back to charging a trillion dollars a year on that credit card - again. We cut taxes for corporations and the wealthy just a year ago, big business is FLUSH WITH CASH, but they are not creating jobs with it (nor are they hiking worker pay...remember those "average $3,000" raises we were promised if we gave business a huge tax cut? Never materilized). No, rather than the money "trickling down" (an idea that was always a farce) companies are buying their stock back to reward investors & CEO"s.
And we need lower taxes? How about this - how about everyone just pay no taxes, we dispense with government altogether. Police gone, schools gone, regulations gone - you can keep all your money for yourself. Well...If you can keep it.
If you, hap0206, have a net worth of over 2 or 3 million dollars, I understand where you are coming from completely. You want tax cuts so you can redistribute money & services fron the poor & middle classes to your already overflowing wallet If not, I have no idea why you are promoting an argument that only, or at least mainly, benefits the rich.
The Republicans have worked a great con, convincing a bunch of poor & middle-class white people that business cares about their well-being and security more than an institution that was created by, of, and for the people that the the people can control & change. It's incredible, really. Like teaching a prisoner to not only love their confinement, but to be willing to make the cells smaller so the warden & his/her staff can all have larger offices. Simply amazing.
No big surprise. The game is rigged for corporations and the rich. A few underlings will go to Club Fed for a state-sponsored Vacation, the big boys will buy their way out & never be charged, investors will get nothing, and the feds will receive billions in fines. We have seen this show so many times I know it by heart. Wouldn't at all surprise me if this is a ploy by the Trump administration to strongarm campaign contributions from the financial services sector.
Always have to ask in cases like this - What's the agenda? Who wins & who loses?
Everyone is striving for that last big gulp. The big boys know this system is coming down around us moreso every day and it's a race to smash and grab as much as you can before the whole system fails.
Once the dollar is removed as the world currency (by 2030 at latest...sooner if Trump gets a second term, which will happen if Biden gets the nomination), well, by then it will be too late. Have to have your money by then so you can retreat to "Richastan".
I could & may go through and document the stuff, but in reading the board I saw a lot of accusations thrown around carelessly and without documentation at liberals...or as they seem known here, socialists, communists, or baby killers and commiters of all acts vile and evil...so I didn't bother. If I post more I will do so, at least until I have a reason not to bother. I mean, when someone says "here are the facts on Trump's accomplishments" and then throws a list compiled by the Trump campaign full of dozens of statements that are unsourced and written as a political rather than a research or factual document, it would take me hours of research to refute most or all of those, whereas it took the poster 5 minutes, if that, to compile. A response to that kind of thing I would not feel the need to source...I would just pull it off the top of my head. And quite frankly, I read many different news sources each day, so tracking things down is a hassle
As for the post of mine you are referencing, most of that stuff is old news & well documented - almost verging on what I would consider "common knowledge".
Trump's shafting of contractors he hires for building work - plumbers, electricians, carpenter's and whatnot...everyday small business owners - is almost legendary in NY and well documented. After a contractor finishes a job, Trump will find fault with this or that in their work and basically tell them "Look, I will pay you 40% of what I agreed to pay you for the work. If you don't like it, sue me". Most small business owners don't have the time or resources to do so, so they just walk away with whatever money Trump feels like giving. This has happened, I believe it is safe to say, 100's of times and is one reason Trump has been sued so may times. Look it up.
As for daddy buying casino chips and other interesting nuggets, read David Cay Johnson's book "The Making of Donald Trump" and Chris Hedges "America, The Farewell Tour". Both Johnson & Hedges are well-respected journalists and document their claims extensively.
The Bibi stuff, that has been all over the press. He is crooked, it appears, and that is not too surprising. It is well known he will do & say almost anything to retain elected office. That is common knowledge among and well reported in the Israeli press.
The New York Time, the Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, and a pleathora of local and national media outlets have reported on the use of Trump properties by foriegn governments, lobbyists, politicians, Pence, Trump himself...the list goes on. Huge amounts of government taxpayer money is spent on Trump properties. There are/were several lawsuits pertaining to this matter.
So ya, I am not just pulling this stuff out of thin air.
If you want a source on anything I mentioned, just let me know. But a quick Google search will yield most of this information. In many to most cases, FOX News will not carry these stories...it doesn't fit their narrative.
Possible. I am wrong at least as much as I am right, but we tend to see a slight bump at EOD from people getting in so if the 8k drops after hours or premarket, they are there for the likely gap. I am thinking .0056 close. A good day nonetheless. I finally am back in the black after a few nail-biting weeks.
Not bad for guv'ment work.
No panic selling on the dip. Traders taking advantage of prices under .005 and moving the PPS back up. $CDIX is trading SO WELL today! Just very healthy.
For every profit taker there is a buyer snatching up those shares and then some.
Back in the green after being down a nail-biting 65%. PHEW!!
Go $CDIX!!
Clean & steady trading. No dilution. Couldn't ask for better.
Picked up more at .0042 as well. Averaged down just a hair. Liking the way this is moving today.
Some slow but steady progress this week would be healthy if no 8k. If OS remains unchanged then maybe PPS ends Friday somewhere in the .006's. Would put me well back into the black.
I suppose I would take a PPS of .03 as well. What the hell?
Nah, 275,000 is a point of pride for me. Arizona car, no rust.
Why buy something new when you have something you love that is perfectly serviceable.
I won't trade in my wife, either. Just make a few minor adjustments to the chassis.
