yep....risk plus entertainment vs reward. i figured to chances of reward were extremely slim at best cuz nothing that good ever happens to budge.
right now, in the view of the regulators, we 'are' the pucks.
hey there buckey....welcome to the world of the pinks where few give a shiitte. my biggest regret so far is that i'll have that bogus 60,000 number fouling up the real numbers in my account for the forseeable future. but i guess that's all part of the show.
i'm assuming the worst that can happen is that i'm out a hundred and fifty bucks for my 100 share ticket to the show.
maybe you are right about nevada. bod's can do a lot with stock structure there w/o share holder aproval. florida's bk rules make it a real haven. most scams i've seem are addressed in boca though. maybe i haven't seen enough.
i don't want to pretend to know everything, but from what i have gathered re: aturd, their system update, sharewise, is automatic and triggered by the dtc in anticipation of actual dilivery. it is a service for convenience. i may be wrong, but the bits and pieces i have form that picture. it has not been a problem before. this will change in future, i'm sure.
just another worthless thought from unclebudge
that's probably because they don't have the same service that aturd has, automatic electronic transfer with approval after the fact..sort of
but the dtc has already dumped those fictional shares into some of our accounts. they have to go to the ta to get the real shares and the ta can't issue because they have to go to the original selling broker who has to go to the original shorter.
that's my understanding of it.
but then, what do i know?
in fla., shareholder approval is not needed. that's why it is the scam capital of the world. any stock with boca ratan attached to is is not a keeper.
It's not the company that has to issue shares. it's the dtc that has to issue us the fictional shares that the original shorter borrowed when they sold them into the market.
both ameriturd and the dtc are responsible for that. it is the result on an automatic electronic transfer that triggers at market close the day before x-date. it is a mutual arrangement for convenience. you can bet your bottom buck that this convenience will be discontinued.
Mack...on your 4th..i don't think that the timing of the pr will be of any concern to the "authorities". Butttt, the warnings will if they are admitted to.
on the marketmakers....i personally doubt that they pay enough attention during the normal course of business as to whether the transaction is legit or not. this mess will probably change that if the sec does its job, 'cause they should get hammered here.
our brokers being short??? uuhhh, can't be, can it?? no, no way!!! who can you trust?
the company owes us nothing. we don't want shares from the company. the only way the company could do that would be thru dilution of biblical proportions and our shares would be worthless.
i bet it's the tranfer agent that gets the first blame, mistake in procedure.
broker gets second blame, didn't check x-date so didn't recognize a short when he handled it.
the selling individual will get third blame for being stupid or greedy.
i ain't doin' shist yet....caution. just watching. if i lose my original bit of bucks, it was worth the entertainment.
that scenario may seem unlikely to some, seems a little unlikely to me, but this is the pinks where miracles happen.
i just don't believe that anything this good ever happens to budge.
A Possible Solution for GVRP?
1)Ammend a/s to several trillion (bid immediately disappears)
trading stops
2)sell a block to the original shorter large enough to cover
for a price fat enough to punish.
3)R/S back down to 100m a/s
those with the testicular fortitude to sell keep their money
those who didn't, through caution or greed, get r/s'd into
oblivion---again
the original screwer gets off easy
the traditional screwees get it again
the company ends up with a fat pocket of cash on hand
this is the land of the pinks where anything is possible
and speaking of THV....noncompliance notice today....hmmm
THV...you too? boring stock, but...worth a churn or 2 while nibbling. I am hoping to see firm evidence of turn-a-round in the next Q. If not, will stop nibbling and lose weight.
OT rabbit....I can't believe that it took "experts" to figure that one out. Thin or porous hull has always been the excuse as long as i can remember.
BUZZ...that PRL is a gender specific stock, I would say.
SMTX Was that capitulation?? picked up a few
Oklahoma first in war crime weapons???
""The military must think uranium is better, because it is permanent. Uranium is radioactive. It kills people and contaminates their land—forever.""
pure B.S.
The author is either
1) ignorant of the fact that it is not radioactive, or
2) looking to ignorant followers to drink his cool-aid.
Either way, the author is totally discredited and the credibility of any supporting organization thus contaminated.
Just another wannabe shepherd looking for a flock to lead; good for the ego.
OT...a sea cruise?? my wife generally takes me on those. She's good at making arrangements.
Best cruise I was ever on was a river cruise from Vienna to Amsterdam. Y'oughta try that sometime. As I recall, we returned just in time to see the twin towers fall. Got lucky.
All picks are winners in the eyes of the picker. Reality comes from the outside.
I have little trouble buying at close to the right spot.
I have rather more trouble selling.
I am relatively helpless when it comes to screening.
Reading filings generally disuades me from buying, or holding anything I've bought.
I would love to participate in any group endevour, however I am handicapped when it comes to time.
raw...There is an axiom in life. Either the law rules, or the mob rules. Either the law is enforced, or there is no law.
Moderators are the law enforcers. So either the moderators keep the board straight or it ends up like RB.
A big problem is that egos get miffed when contrary opinion is posted. It always ends up in personal bashing, RB.
Another is that mobs of idiots post meaningless drivel, RB.
If this board can keep it civil and open at the same time, it would be somewhat of a miracle.
That's just the way humans are.
I agree whole heartedly. that's one thing that has always been missing on any board i've seen. most boards seem to be forums for dick waving on winners and shutmouth on loosers.
Question...friday, in one of my tax defered accounts, i was in and out of ISO a counple of times for a grand total of about 7 cents. today, ameriturd still list the total amount of cash used in those trades as unsettled. i assume that i can't buy anything as there is nothing in the way of cash to trade with untill that unsettled status changes.
however, in another of those accounts, i sold 1/2 of my IPI and that account shows no unsettled cash.
why one and not the other???
damn, it's tough being an amat(ure)
maybe that brilliant .90 buy will turn to shit.
ADST...news after the bell doesn't look the greatest to me.
ooohhh...maybe that's what i am.....i do go round and round seeking something. can't figure out which way to go most times. thanks doc.
thanks for the spelling lesson, but i'll still be an amateur (looks too french) at spelling too.
BUZZ...i feel sorry for fools like me who thought it brilliant to not yield to pushing the buy button near close. was out at 2.72.
but then...i'm an amature
BUZZ...i was brilliant yesterday not yielding to the temptation of pulling the trigger near 2.00.
as usual, my brilliance turned to shit.
EZTO reminds me of BTOO...been watching that since sept. as a matter of study. BSIC seems to be playing the role on EZTO that PHDC is playing on BTOO. sits on the inside ask and sells to all who want. comes off occasionally and it spikes a bit, then down he comes. i estimate that 45% of all volume since sept has been PHDC selling. that's a whole lot more than s-8 shares.
VAST...was watching that this afternoon. don't know how far down it's going. sittin on old resistance now. already 5 days of hard selling.
lonestar49....removed my gtc at .90 yesterday. looking down near .80 now but no order in yet. no buying until that low holds.
buzz....i swore that the next time it popped over seventy i would sell some. got distracted and had to take a buck. foolish now, be hey.
ONT .. out 1/2 ah @ 1.00+
ABMC....where to sell.....uuhhhh....beats me.
SMTX..back in a little at 2.10 see if i jumped the gun there.
EAG...had a bid in at .65 since yesterday ..nada
had bid in on vfin at .21 since out at .32 ..nada
too cheap am I?
