That audio clip, while brief, represents a knowledgeable and articulate individual, who is clearly a strong advocate for CBD formulations. We may be one of the rare OTC pink companies to now have a MENSA member* at the helm.
As always, simply my opinion.
Thanks for that audio link, done_diligence.
*I don't know this as a fact, but it would not surprise me one bit to find that he was/is a member of that organization.
Over the weekend, top archaeologists and historians took a break from watching the NFL playoff games to investigate a reported discovery. Underneath one of the great pyramids, a stone tablet (very similar to the Rosetta stone) was discovered.
A linguistics expert was able to decode, from the tablet etchings, a very important encoded message. The translation was (paraphrasing) 'Invest heavily in the MJ industry in general, and in GRCU in particular.' *Please note that this did not actually happen.

Ancient civilizations put a tremendous amount of thought and effort into the spectacular structures they built. Some would go as far as to say that through these structures, and the clues hidden within them, the builders were sending future civilizations a message. GRCU.... message received loud and clear.

lol. Might be awarded to you regardless, due to your dedication and perseverance to studies in the area of GRCU algorithmic mathematics. We may not have closed at the HOD, but we had a good week.
•••> It all boils down to this <••• All OTC investors/traders hope to stumble upon one of the authentic 'upside-explosive' OTC stocks. Because as we know, getting into the right one can be a financial life-changer. But only a precious few of the thousands of OTC companies have all of the necessary elements to do so.
We are in a new and highly desirable industry/sector. Governmental bodies are making the regulations (and public policy) friendlier every day, providing a constant source of positive news feeds.
We are being led by CEO Robert Calkin, an industry educator and guru, who has come on board with a compensation package that aligns his interest entirely with GRCU shareholders. Additionally, he has the type of connections that can fuel the release of meaningful PRs for years to come.
And best of all, he has begun building a scalable, and potentially profitable entity. And generating a profit eliminates the biggest risk present in most stocks in the OTC world... toxic convertible debt issued to fund an operational loss, leading to large scale dilution and thus share price destruction.
The green movement is here to stay. And it goes far beyond cannabis/medical mj formulations. The movement also encompasses the ever-expanding selection of eco-friendly household consumer products (i.e. all natural hemp based deodorant, soap, shampoo, conditioner, etc) and all-natural food products (such as hemp seed and hemp fiber) that Green Cures sells.
I believe we have something really rare here. GRCU... the OTC unicorn.
As always, simply my opinion.

Thank you for the compliment, scubasteve11 (and to others that have been complimentary as well). I have been invested here since the days of GRCU's predecessor entity TTD*, and have maintained my long-term bullish sentiment throughout.
Mile high stadium... The GRCU ask lineup is now thinning out like the air at the altitude of mile high stadium.

If your end-of-week price prediction turns out to be correct, I may have to publish a new episode of the adventures of GRCU, where you receive the Fields medal, often referred to as the Nobel Prize for Mathematics, for your improved algorithm.
Makes sense. With the buying pressure I witnessed on L2 going into the close today, I wouldn't be surprised if GRCU opened with an ask of .0067 tomorrow (I have been known to have a lean toward optimistic, though).
As always, simply my opinion.
It doesn't have to fill, but it happens so often when a price gap exists, that many traders expect it as an almost certainty. And since people's expectations drive their buying/selling behavior, it often becomes a self fulfilling prophecy.
The point that jzgeorge has been trying to make is that since GRCU's official closing price was recorded at .0060 today, but should have legitimately been set at .0065, we would expect that trading would begin tomorrow morning at around .0065 (where most of the latest transactions today were taking place).
But if GRCU does begin trading where most would expect (around .0065), then the charts will represent a gap up from today's .0060 official closing price. Even though the consensus would probably be that there was not really any gap-up in price, that needs to be filled.
This is why it presents an issue when an unsupported or unsubstantiated price is set as the official closing price.
Not sure if I made the issue more clear or more confusing, but I have made an attempt at framing the issue.
GRCU
Below is a list of the reported GRCU trades for the last 10 minutes of the trading day today, as well the t-trades reported after the bell. The OTC now has the official closing price of GRCU at .0060.
So my first question is, which blindfolded OTC bureaucrat is responsible for the pricing function. My understanding is that the official closing price is derived from the last trade on or before 4pm, which in this case would be .0065.
But lets say they were to use the first after hours t-trade instead. In that case, the closing price would again be .0065.
Or that they were to use the last after hours t-trade instead. In that case, the closing price would still have been .0065.
So what they decided to do, instead, was to use the little t-trade somewhere in the middle of the after hours t-trade reporting, which also happens to be about 7% lower than the actual final normal trading hours trade, and that much lower than all other reported after hours t-trades. It also strips away nearly 40% of today's actual gains on GRCU.
On a positive note, it will virtually ensure that we remain in the green when we begin trading tomorrow. But the decision to use .006 as the official closing price for GRCU has about as much integrity, IMO, as that spectacular decision by the official in the Cowboys playoff game to pick up the potentially game altering pass-interference flag and stuff it back in his pocket.
Is there no longer any honor in financial markets? Just needed to vent a bit here...

If one were to do a screen of all OTC stocks (there are about 10,000 in all), filtering for the following criteria:
a) The absence of any increase in outstanding shares in nearly a year, and actually a reduction of hundreds of millions of shares.
-and-
b) An OTC company that many shareholders feel very comfortable holdings for a several year time-frame (<-in my opinion) (knowing that a month is often considered a long-term hold in OTC land)
How many would meet the above criteria?
I know that OTC companies represent extreme risk, but every fiber of my being tells me that Green Cures is a rare breed in the OTC world (i.e. unicorn), and should be a long term hold.
As always, simply my opinion.

*Please note that the 2013 common sharecount figures above represent those of TTD*, GRCU's predecessor entity. And that all common sharecount figures were taking from the filings available on the OTCmarkets website.
About 7 million shares now being bid between .0057 and .0059, which is nearly the GRCU avg total daily volume over the past month and a half. I think we are about to explode upward.
As always, simply opinion.

Charting is not my strength, but I think I was pretty close to the mark with a couple of my GRCU chart related posts yesterday (in the middle of the trading day). Even a broken clock is right twice a day ;)

'We have not closed above (and held) the 50 day moving average since some time in May '14 (more than 7 months ago). Closing at or above our 50 dma of .0054 (and holding) would indicate a genuine change in sentiment (with the bulls gaining control), and could be the catalyst for going much higher (see chart below).
As always, simply my opinion.'

'Here's another chart supporting the sentiment change which is beginning to lean bullish. It is the GRCU intraday trading, over the past few days. The rising step-level of higher lows, since it bottomed at .0035, is clearly evident from the chart (see below).'

I agree with your assessment below, BigJuan.
BTW, thanks for the welcome. I don't have pm., but in answer to your question, I do not know.

According to the records with the Nevada Secretary of State (which is the state where BTZO is incorporated, and would file for any changes in the authorized shares permitted), common remains at 4.2 billion A/S.
Please note that I did also notice that they are currently in default status. But I've seen this many times before with OTC pink companies. I think the status issues are usually remedied by simply remitting any delinquent fees owed or providing whatever reporting information is currently late.
According to the charts, it has not happened. And it would appear that BTZO has already surpassed the previous 52 week highest volume trading day (after little more than an hour of trading).
Thanks, Hanover1. I'd like to add one additional point. It would not surprise me one bit if after some buying begins to occur, many of those shares currently being offered for sale (at the ask of .0002) turn into vapor, and are retracted.
I must admit that the massive selling this morning at .0001 caught me off guard. But here's what I find the interesting thing. After the massive selling into the bid of .0001, there has not been one token buy at the ask of .0002 in nearly an hour.
Why do I find that interesting. Because with BTZO being the highest volume OTC pink trading this morning, holders of BTZO know that the top volume stock will get a whole lot of eyeballs on it (because it appears at the top of the volume board).
And when many of those eyeballs notice this stock for the first time, there's a huge difference in perception between seeing it down 50% and seeing it neither up nor down at .0002 (the closing price yesterday).
So again, for a tiny amount of trading money, any sort of buy at the ask could have massively altered first impression perception, yet no one seems interested in doing that. I could be off base here, but that indicates to me that holders of BTZO would rather get more buys filled at .0001 than have any new buying interest in BTZO. And the most logical conclusion I can come up with for this is that they believe this will go up in a big way, and would like to accumulate more shares (at .0001, at the moment), before that rise occurs.
As always, simply my opinion.

I noticed the same thing (with regard to the DEWM after-hours share price, as well as other OTC stocks), PennyHoper, and I posted the following a little while ago on another board (to express my concerns):
'I don't want to overreact here, with regard to the strange after hours share pricing impacting a bunch of OTC companies over the past couple of days (such as GRC*). But it definitely has me concerned.
Since the online brokers appear to be in agreement on those erratic after hours prices (as evidenced by people reporting back the closing prices in their after-hours portfolio), it would appear that the central feed of OTC pricing is being altered for a subset of the stocks.
Again, I do not want to overreact here, but imagine what would happen to the banking system if individuals could not rely upon their available balance. Would it surprise any if there was a mini-run on the banks, should such a phenomenon occur.
Some of you may recall a number of days, in the recent past, were there were 'technical' issues causing a suspension of OTC trading. I seem to recall that on one particular day, trading was halted for nearly the entire day.
In this electronic world, we have to be able to rely upon the numerical information supplied to us. For without that confidence, we have nothing. I really hope that there are some talented folks working to determine the cause(s) of these OTC pricing issues, before it results in some real damage to trader/investor confidence.
As always, simply my opinion.'
I'm not saying that the brokers are wrong. But what I am saying is that clearly something fishy is going on, and that can undermine confidence in the entire system.
I don't think that iHub's level 2 had any issues, because today I watched dozens of after hours trades on there for Sirius, beginning at 4pm. And that is why it's real peculiar that nothing would show up on that same level 2 for GRCU, yet dynamic and continued after hours trading for an OTC stock (which supposedly is not allowed), occurred for GRCU and dozens (or hundreds) of OTC companies today.
Then why are none of these supposed trades appearing when I bring up the real-time trade history in iHub, and they are not appearing within the L2 history as well? The last trade appearing in my L2 for GRCU was at 3:58:39.
