Han, bringing the current number of outstanding shares up to approx. 2 billion, meant issuing "over" one billion extra shares. Usually these are bought up by bargain hunters at extremely low prices.Although all our recent "positive" press releases should have raised the stock price, it didn't because it gave these investors a chance to dump most of their shares at a nice profit. Trying to figure out just how many more shares they still have left to sell, is very difficult. I would love to see one huge block traded "at any price", just to know that the selling is over. Our president,James Hergott is doing an exceptional job in my opinion, of marketing this company every way possible. He seems to be relentless in his drive to make several good things happen, to put this company on the map. As long as we have an intelligent as well as very aggressive president at the helm, we'll be fine. Whether we move up today, next Friday, or a month from now doesn't really matter. We will go a lot higher than we are right now, in my opinion anyway. Regards, Florida
Sounds like wishful thinking on your part tdd boy, your constant negative opinions are not shared by most of us on this board. So while you're predicting a drop, most of the rest of us here predict a rise. We'll just have to wait and see how this plays out. Florida
Bids and asks just don't go higher or lower "without a reason"! Whatever it may be,it certainly feels bullish to me. Florida
There's a fairly good possibility that we could get news sometime today regarding our progress at the film feestival. There's also a good chance of another release any day next week from Tuesday on, regarding our "two" interviews we're having tomorrow. If even one of these things come to pass, we'll be on our way. If both do, and they're really positive, look out! If we don't get anything, which I really doubt, we might have to wait just a little bit longer to watch this stock make it's move. Regards, Florida
Art, please explain what you mean by, "these are IPRE'S m&m's? Thanks, Florida
Could someone with level 2, post the market makers name at the bid??? Thanks, Florida
tdd814u, the day will come, and it's not very far away, that even "you" will say, why didn't I buy those very cheap shares when I had the chance, instead of heckling the real people that care about this stock and have put their money where their mouth is. !!!! Have lots of fun bashing this stock. You won't be doing it too much longer!!!!! Florida
"Maybe it's only wishful thinking, but today feels like an up day to me"!!!! Maybe today could be the beginning of a late May rally!!!! If any of you follow baseball, the N.Y.YANKEES, with some of their best players hurt, just finished beating both the N.Y.METS,and the BOSTON RED SOX two out of three games each. If they could accomplish that, in the banged up condition the team is in at present, Why can't Imperia who's working very hard every day at putting some major deals together, continue their good work and announce plenty more positive things for our company???? Throw yesterday out. We all know that this stock usually would have had a nice runup if there weren't some of those released shares still floating around. But we have to remember that every time we trade 100, 200, or 300 million more shares, their supply of remaining shares gets lower and lower. One day, when a positive press release such as the one the company announced yesterday is put out, "there will be no wall of resistance left"!!!! Then, even on lower volume, this stock will take off. Don't know about the rest of you folks, but the action recently, coupled with the known news, and thefact that this company is probably working on even bigger things,makes today feel different than the last five to me. Regards, Florida
Banana,I sent one today. You must have read my mind. Florida
Genlemen, there might have been a billion shares or "more" distributed by Imperia to raise the needed cash. When these groups buy up huge blocks of shares they usually pay "very little" for them. Therefore, if they had one billion, or, even one and a half billion, there's absolutely no way for this stock to have a sustained runup until "all" these cheaply bought shares are sold out!!!! Good press releases help, because they draw interest to the stock, which results in bigger volume, and allows these shares to be eaten up. When this selling is finally done, and it will end, everything does, this stock could move into the pennies range even on "lower volume". The million dollar question now is, "just how many of these "loose" shares are still out there????? Forget flipping, or selling short, in my opinion this big block of shares is holding us back, and even helped drive our stock price down lately. Regards, Florida
It's starting to work already! The early bid and ask moved up a notch, bid is 0.0030, ask is 0.0031.There must be something to that "power of positive thinking" thing! Florida
This has to be not only one of the most active boards around, but wins first prize for most upbeat and friendliest board as well.Allowing for an occasional basher, which makes it more interesting, the back and forth chatter and information that we all share, is very refreshing. Just on principle, IPRE should start moving upward this morning. All longs on this board should be rewarded for their loyalty, and never say die attitude. So come on Imperia, you owe it to all your loyal shareholders to do your part to get this stock going. Today would be a great day to start our uptrend! Regards, Florida
The last trade was for 7.5 mil. after the close. However there were several other "buys" between 4p.m. and 4.06 p.m. at the "ask" also. All buys at 0.003. Florida
8.5 mil. block at 0.003 was logged in at 4.06p.pm I wonder if this is an indication of some good news coming tomorrow? In any event, it certainly can't hurt the price at Wed. opening! Florida
unluckyyami,since this stock has traded a ton of shares since then, would you care to venture a guess on just how many of those "released shares" are still on the market, if any???? Thanks, Florida
Yes I have invested in this company. The fact that nobody seems to know just how many shares the company released in early May, or,what price they were bought at, is a little frightening. In my opinion it wouldn't hurt to have some idea of roughly how many shares could "still possibly" be on the market to be sold. Until they're done selling, this stock will have a very difficult time moving higher! The lowering of the share price, and thus the lowering of the company's value, is not a good thing when we're talking to prospective buyers/investors regarding our upcoming films.Whether the company can do or say anything at this crucial time remains to be seen. For the time being I'm prepared to watch and wait! Florida
The erosion in our stock price has to be even tougher on our company's executives. The worst scenario possible, is to try and put some deals together with financial investors while your stock price keeps going lowere each day. Since we're at three tenths of a penny at this time, it would certainly look a lot better if the stock price was rising instead of falling! Comparing it to a person seeking a new job, "it's always better to interview for one while you're still working"! Unless these flippers finish with their selling pretty soon, the end of this weeks "possible deals" might not materialize. This is definitely not short selling, and the "regular" profit takers are done selling. Now we have to hope that these "quick profit guys"who no doubt bought at a very low price, sell their remaining shares just as quickly as possible! Florida
I guess the group that bought up the last batch of inexpensive shares, didn't have a chance to read that mid-day report recommending a "buy" of IPRE! until they finish up with their dumping of the rest of their remaining shares, not much in the way of good news, or,even a buy recommendation, can help us too much. Florida
Folks, does anybody really believe that the dumping of shares over the past few days is "still profit taking"????? The only people making money right now on this stock besides the market makers, are the ones who were issued that block of shares in early May. Nobody seems to know just how many shares were released, and at "what price:????? I myself have had no luck in finding this info in any recent filings. If millions of shares were issued at 0.001 or lowere, then we'd all have a better idea of why a company with "all "good news", keeps sliding lower even with our support.Until every one of these newly released shares have been sold, it's almost impossible for this stock to mount a sustained rally. These are only my opinions. I would welcome some relevant input from anyone, that could be helpful to all of us. Regards, Florida
When a stock gets active and has a very active message board as well, there's always going to be some flipping of shares. I'm sure IPRE has some day trading and flipping going on. However, I really believe that the main reason the stock is having some difficulty moving higher, is that shares released earlier this month are still being sold.This selling is keeping the stock price down. On the plus side is the fact that we continue to trade upwards of 100 mil. shares each day. The fact that we seem to do some big blocks in the last half hour, gives me hope that this selling could be coming to an end pretty soon. I believe that when these "loose shares" are eaten up, this stock will start to move higher pretty quickly. Too many positive things are in the works for this company, so it almost has to go up in price. Trying to guess which day this will happen is the hard part. It could even be as early as tommorrow! Regards, Florida
Nite most likely has some shares still left to sell for whatever group purchased the last batch that the company released in early May. The main questions should be, just exactly how many more shares were put out on the market at that time, and what price were they released at? I don't believe any selling that we see now is coming from profit takers or short sellers.According to posts on this board there should be a maximum of 2 bil. shares outstanding, and no more coming! If we could get a read on the last share offering, then perhaps we can all get a better idea on roughly just how many might still be left to be sold. As far as some much needed press releases go, everyone that owns shares in this company wants them out as soon as possible.However, the company might be monitoring the activity in these released shares, and I'm sure that they will release news when they deem it appropriate.The action in this stock, especially this morning is real encouraging. It seems to bejust be a matter of time before it has a real good run. Regards, Florida
I just received an answer to my e-mail from James Hergott the president of Imperia. He adressed my concerns regarding the selling of shares the last couple of days, and the request I made for more positive news releases. As far as news is concerned, he replied that they would release news when the company feels it would be appropriate. I have no problem with that. Secondly, he stated that the stock had a nice run for a few days, so some selling was not unexpected. I have no problem with that statement either. My main concern was that people might be dumping some of the recent batch of shares that were released, but since our total number of shares outstanding is still the same, "profit taking is the logical answer". With this company going all out to really become a "major player" in the movie industry, and with the legion of followers that they now have, as witnessed by this board, there's a much greater chance of success than there is of failure. It felt good to have the president of a company take the time to adress my concerns as promptly as Mr. Hergott did. Regards, Florida
Hello folks, just a question regarding the number of shares that are being bought, and who could be selling them to us? I'm a shareholder too, and am seriously considering adding adding additional shares, but am just a little puzzled by all the shares that seem available to buy, that seems to be holding this stock back from moving higher! If the numbers are correct, approx. a 2 bil. share float, and we traded about 1 bil. between 0.004, and 0.005, with all the buying just the folks on this board have done, "how could this stock still be stuck at 0.004????? Even on the "possibility" that "one" of our films will be a hit, this stock should be over a penny right now! If half our float has already been bought up, and, if folks like myself are still buying more shares, where in the world are these available shares coming from, and most importantly, "when will this selling dry up"????? Any opinions on my questions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Florida
Art, just one more thing. Could the selling over the last day and a half be some of the shares you said they released in that Reg d financing thing? Thanks, Florida
Thanks for the prompt replies guys. I really believe this could turn out to be a real good one! Florida
Art, do you have any idea just what the float is in IPRE??? The outstanding shares,and the float, is not very large on the pink sheets stats.Maybe they issued more shares recently to raise capital for business expenses.That might explain the inability to move up unless the volume is very heavy. The other puzzling thing is, "where is all the selling coming from in the last couple of days? I'm in a little higher than we are now, but am seriously considering taking a larger position, thus the need for some of my questions. Regards, Florida
Thanks Gigantus. Best regards, Florida
Does anybody on this board get level 2 on their computer? If you do, please let me know who the market maker is at the sell price of 0.042. Thanks, Florida
You make a very good point. "If," some folks have heard something that even sounds positive for the last two days, then the question is, "why don't we all hear the news in a press release"???? That would be the only fair way to let "everbody" know just what's going on!!!!! Florida
Ranzy, if your guess is correct, and, if the news is as good as people seem to think it is, then this stock should have some kind of a runup "today"!!!! Do we agree? Florida
Pre-market opening, no bid price but ask is 0.043!!! Could something be coming out today??? Florida
Ranzy, if like the rest of us you believe that the news will be good, why wouldn't you pay a fraction more for some shares? If what they announce is even a little bit positive, it should go a lot higher! Just an opinion. Florida
Folks, since there's no selling in this stock today, maybe it would be a good thing if they held off on releasing the press release for a day or two. With the p.r. people being so upbeat and open with all shareholders,it would seem that the higher this stock closes pre-news, the bigger jump it will take when news is released. For those folks still waiting for more "bargain prices", all I can say is, you had three chances to buy shares under 0.04, I really believe you won't have that opportunity again!!!! Florida
With only 2 very small trades inthe first 15 minutes today, why do I get the feeling that "everyone" will be reading some news from FMNJ today????? It certainly looks like people are expecting something from the company this morning!!!! Florida
Martucci, the last trade before 4 p.m. as reported by e-trade was 0.0445. Your 300,000 trade was reported at 4.01 p.m. at 0.042 Either it was done just after the close, or it was reported late. The"official" closing price was??????? Either way, it will still close higher tomorrow.
I don't see this stock going below 0.40 tommorrow. The last trade of the day of 300,000 shares "might" have cleared out todays sellers. If so, we should open higher tomorrow morning even without some news, which I agree is the key to this stock going "much higher". For the third straight time, after getting rocked and going below 0.030, it rallied back at the end of the day. All the other nonsense aside, this is usually the sign of a strong stock! After all trading was done, it's still a lot closer to 0.06, than it is to 0.02 as one basher has been predicting. Looking forward to a good day on Tuesday, and a very good week for Franklin Mining. Florida
Martucci, why do you even bother to answer the couple of bashers that only seem to enjoy it when investors lose money. Those of us that read your posts believe you 100%. Whether this stock makes it to the moon or not, it wouldn'make sense for anyone to express such positive opinions as you have, unless they truly believed in them. Thanks for keeping us all in the loop. Regards, Florida
This is the "third time" in less than a month that the stock price has gotten this low. Both the other times it rebounded almost immediately, and within a few days was around 0.06 again. Do good things come in threes??????
Whatever happened to our poster, who said last week, that he spoke to the public relations dept. and was told they would return from Bolivia and be back at their office today. He also said that any and all shareholders questions would be answered today!!!! Florida
Why do I get the feeling that a couple of posters seem very anxious for this stock to go lower. They're throwing very low prices out there, almost as a scare tactic. Could it be that they "wish" this stock could drop way down so they could virtually "steal" some shares??? Just an observation! Florida P.S. I too would love to pick up some more at 0.02 or 0.03 or even 0.035. However, not being greedy, I'd much rather see it stabilize here, and head back up, as I'm content with the shares I already own.
