I assumed that.
The only blue line I see on that screen is under "latest FNMA messages". Is that what you mean by the blue line?
PC - Windows - Explorer
To anybody:
Yesterday I asked the board to show me how to view "old posts". "feralcomprehension" responded to me the following:
"In the dark blue line above all the posts (labeled from left to right Post....Subject... the next entry is "Older", etc."
I see NO dark blue line anywhere on my screen and none of the posts that I can see have headings with "Post" "Subject" in a header line.
I'm also a member of Ihub. Why is my screen different?
I would love to explore these links at home tonight, but once I get home your post will be "below the scroll screen" and I've never figured out how to see "all" posts even below the scroll screen.
Anybody???
Isn't this what the MMs do all day?
Unless I'm dead, I will be there. Just let us know the time, place,location of celebration, etc.
I don't think anybody on this board knows FOR SURE. Just keep your ear to the ground; if you hear anything DEFINITIVELY, post it.
No Jag for me either. I'll be getting a 9' Steinway Concert Grand Piano to put next to my terrific 7' Mason & Hamlin Grand. Of course, I'll have to move to a larger house!!!
In short: MMs
Before you add #3, don't forget that you'll be paying me $300 at the end of the trading day Next Wednesday. :)
I don't but I think all us longs will be able to buy at least ONE Ferrari when conservatorship ends and FNMA is uplisted.
NEVER let it be said that our great poster ZARGIS isn't on top of things. I know you have the proverbial day-job and are busy, but I wish you post more often - your posts are always very informative (and sometimes very humorous as well)
Mikoli: If you go to the Investopedia site, you can find lots more detailed information re earnings reports. My question (which I haven't found an answer to yet) is:
Did filing earnings reports actually start when the SEC was started (1930s?) or were earnings reports rules started at a later date.
Doesn't really matter, just curious.
Inquiring minds: I found this on Investopedia.
The Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC) requires companies to file earnings reports no later than 45 days after the end of their first three quarters, and their quarterly and annual reports 90 days after their fiscal year end. Companies file quarterly earnings reports on Form 10-Q or 10-QSB and yearly earnings reports on Form 10-K or 10-KSB. A company can file these reports or announce earnings publicly whenever it chooses, provided it follows the 45- and 90-day guidelines set forth by the SEC.
However, in an attempt to make information available to the public in a more timely manner, the SEC adopted rules on August 27, 2002, that saw these 45- and 90-day requirements reduced to 35 and 60 days, respectively. The tightening of filing requirements, however, affects only public companies that have a public float of at least $75 million and have been subject to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for at least 12 months. The change in time periods was phased in over three years, starting November 15, 2002. For the first year, companies were allowed the 45- and 90-day requirements, then 40- and 75-day requirements the second year, and then 35- and 60-day requirements for the years thereafter.
Many websites have the release dates for earnings reports of publicly traded companies.
TMI :)
Me too. If you find a book or an article describing the process or rules, let the board know.
In the meantime, I work at a major law firm in NYC, who deals with these kinds of things. I'll make some inquiries on my own.
Great to hear that - I'm going long on this one.
I would if I could, but I don't have a "cash" account; just an IRA account. Can't flip back and forth during the day, have to wait for the dreaded 3-day settlement period.
Heck - I'm no expert by any means - it was just an observation. I've been looking at stock prices for a few years now and from my point of view (again, no expert) it just SEEMS that this daily IFON trend implies pumping/dumping. At least it looks like it settles around $2.50 every day. Probably MMs doing their stuff.
Thanks. I did check it out. Quite an impressive 3-month run there.
Since I've been in on this stock, I'm seeing a daily trend: every morning it spikes UP, then by mid-morning, it starts to go back down. Anybody else notice this? Sorta implies pumping/dumping.
Care to clue the board in on what is "GW"?
Sorry, at this rate you have 55 more trading days to get to 3.60
LOL - I was thinking more in the lines of, say, a filet mignon, mid-priced Rhone red, etc. etc. you get my drift.
come on on red cent: those are pretty low stakes. Live a little! Raise the ante
I hope you are right!
You're ON. Just ask for Lumpina and tell me who you "were" during the stockprofitter bet.
Yep, I know $300 won't last long. Hell, I already owe Detearing an $800 malt scotch. Gonna be an expensive trip. But I look forward to it.
Naw - I had to take a little pity on stockprofitter. I know his heart is in the right place so I don't want to take "too much candy from a baby". I'm a nice person at the end of the day.
I'll take my $300 winnings to Vegas with all the other celebrants at the Wynn (with Detearing of course). I'll buy everybody drinks until the $300 runs out. :)
Wondering: I hope HE wins. If fannie closes at 3.60 next Wednesday, his money will be in the mail the next day.
Great. I will print out your posts for the record and we will talk next Wednesday around 3:45 p.m.
Ironically, I HOPE you are right. If so, I'll gladly pay you. But I think this is like taking candy from a baby.
Also, on a personal note, I just joined IHUB so I can blabber on and on all day now.
No way - now you are hedging the bet. I don't bet on downsides - I don't short stocks. You said the stock would "run", then you said it would be 3.60 in five days. That's the bet. Don't weasel out on me buddy. You must be aware that people are reading this stuff and YOUR reputation is on the line. :)
You got a bet my friend. If that happens, I can easily pay you with my profits. I hope the same for you. So, if what you predict happens, the bet is $300, correct? ($3.00 times 100 = 300). And this bet will be in effect for the next 5 days the market opens, meaning end of day on Feb. 12. Please clarify if these are the terms.
Be careful because we have plenty of witnesses on this board.
I would love 3.08 also, but if you call a .04 increase in a stock price a "run" then you are delusional. Good luck to you and all fellow Fannies anyway.
I'll work on that IHUB membership suggestion. Thx
So the bet is off? No definition? I don't care one way or the other. But my own personal definition of a run would be a minimum of 20 cents above opening price? Since you won't define it, I will.
(This is fun)
You are SO totally wrong. I'm long and strong FNMA, been in since last May during that "run". And I have LOTS of shares, none of them short. Come on- you haven't defined run yet. Put up or shut up. I'm a friendly person but YOU called the run. Now you are backing out of defining what that means.
Also, I'm limited to 15 posts a day, so I may run out soon.
Of course - but you still haven't defined what "run" is.
Agree on bad storm, and agree on no run. But that's not why no run. We need news. I couldn't go to work today In NYC because of the storm. So I'm waiting right here in my office at home for stockprofiter to define what 'run' means. Then we 'll go from there. The way Iook at it, it's a win-win for me.
If you clearly define what "run" means, I'm in. We can work out payment details later.
Care to bet 10 shares on that prediction?
Pardon me JamesL; it won't "run" today (depending on your definition of run). It hasn't run in many months. Check the charts. It won't run again until it is released from conservatorship; or uplisted; or have ridiculously high earnings. I would guess only one of those three things is likely to happen.
