How about that, my friend! Yes, I have my fingers in a few pies...waiting for them to bake....
you are 5'11" Bee? Wow.... I have you beat by only a 1/2"!
NL
Prices... congrats... I think we will soon see that these were indeed cheapies...
However, even if the play takes a bit longer than shorter to get to full value, I am very confident that we WILL see it come through big time. There is too much value in the companies they are acquiring and the LHC business plan and so few shares in the float. JMHO.

I was able to pick-up 3 million today....
I am not sure this will be going much lower anymore and I don't want to miss the train before she leaves the station. Almost everyone agrees this is very undervalued and has huge upside. One of these days it will get out of this "cheapie" zone and get up to where it reflects its real value. JMHO.
NL
Grab them cheapies.....I am done, so am not taking any today...they are all yours...
Loaded and ready.

Yes, I have soem shares...have had for awhile... bought in and sold at .0022 a year or so ago and then have bought back around .0005...

Thanks, zigzagman!
China Yida Holding Company Establishes Strategic Partnership with GuangZhiLv, China's Leading Travel Agency
FUZHOU, China, July 23, 2008 /Xinhua-PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- China Yida Holding Co., Ltd. (OTC Bulletin Board: CYID) (''the Company'' or ''China Yida''), a leading comprehensive tourism and media management company, today announced that it has established a strategic partnership with GuangZhiLv International Travel Agency (''GuangZhiLv''), one of the largest travel agencies in China's Guangdong Province, to attract tourism for its flagship scenic destination, the Great Golden Lake. Under the terms of the agreement, China Yida and the GuangZhiLv will conduct a joint marketing campaign that will promote trips to the Great Golden Lake. As part of the marketing campaign, GuangZhiLv will place the Great Golden Lake at the top of their list of recommended scenic spots in Fujian.
Mr. Chen Minhua, chairman of China Yida, said, ''We are pleased to gain a partner that is as well respected as GuangZhiLv, the first domestic travel agency to be branded with the 'China Famous' trademark. This trademark is given by the Trademark Office under State Administration of Industry and Commerce and signifies that GuangZhiLv has substantially penetrated the tourist markets in Guangzhou and the Pearl River Delta. With this partnership, we are confident that GuangZhiLv will help drive tourism and bring new visitors to the Great Golden Lake.''
''Earlier this year, the Chinese government altered China's holiday structure, canceling the May 1st 'Golden Week' seven-day holiday, implementing a program of paid holidays and adding several traditional Chinese holidays to the calendar (such as Qing Ming, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, etc.) This structural policy change allows for several extended weekends throughout the year, which is expected to boost popularity of recreational tourism in the China market. We believe that the Great Golden Lake will benefit from the additional recreational and weekend tourism, as the Great Golden Lake destination provide a culturally-rich experience that is well- suited for people of all ages.''
Last month, Mr. Wen Shuang, deputy general manager of GuangZhiLv International Travel Agency's Domestic Tourism Department, and 23 members of his team toured and inspected four of the five major scenic spots at the Great Golden Lake: the Golden Lake, Shangqing River, Zhuangyuan Rock and Taining Ancient Town. GuangZhiLv also inspected other branded scenic spots in the Fujian area neighboring Guangdong Province. After visiting all the destinations, GuangZhiLv decided to partner with China Yida due to the Great Golden Lake's unique tourist resources and the appealing combination of scenery, including a lake, river, mountain and city.
Together, China Yida and GuangZhiLv will develop and promote selective tour routes for the Great Golden Lake's five scenic spots. The first group of tourists began their expedition through the Great Golden Lake in early July. GuangZhiLv also plans to join with other major travel agencies in Guangdong Province and develop new recreational tourism routes to the Great Golden Lake from Xiamen and Wuyi Mountain.

Re TVCE, No, I am not sure...in fact, probably only assumed you were the mod because you were one of the most frequent posters - often with an end of day thought.
I am also holding some and waiting for the right day....
Thanks.
Yup... big upside here... once news comes, I think this will skip and jump as the acquisitions and spin-off follow shortly. We still seem to be under the radar, but I suspect that will change as the uplist and other developments happen one after the other. What an opportunity we have had to add more at these prices over the past couple of weeks!
Where are you vacationing?
Creede:
OT, (but it is the weekend): You were the moderator for the TVCE board but are no longer.... are you done with that one? Your thoughts?
NorthLion
Hi Starnes... hope you are enjoying your time away. We are missing you around here.
Thanks, Chevy!
I cannot believe the volume of cheapies being sold this week - do these people have no idea?? I have to admit I took a bunch....
Looking forward to next week! Have a nice weekend, everyone!
NL
SuperSquirrel....
MTRE is going to OTCBB first (expected within the next couple of weeks).... then it will be looking to AMEX down the road a bit. It needs to get the SP higher first to qualify for AMEX, and that may happen fairly quickly after the uplist to OTCBB as they can then proceed with their acquisitions.
NorthLion
Suddenly we see buys at .026 and .03.....looks like there is new interest in ASPE! I wonder what is cooking?
good plan...borrow a wheelbarrow full... LOL
.....that is hilarious, ET!
But keep looking until you find it... and buy up a few more.
In other words, ET, if you have any more thots of adding to your position in MTRE....don't delay.... tick tock... personally speaking and, IMHO, you will not regret whatever you can add by stretching just a bit more and doing it while the opportunity is here.
Superbee has turned her couch upside down and shaken it a few times already.... and checked under the car.
I have quit buying MTRE about 50 times already; reached my target.... and then bought I bought some more, every time... this story just keeps getting better...
JMHO, of course.
I am on the cheapie plan, so can't PM. Please use email: lion@ldj.net
Yes, there were a couple of sales at .008. The first one was someone else but the last 6000 were mine. That doesn't amount to very many $$'s at all. I was hoping to move about 220,000, but if that doesn't happen soon, then I will just sit back and wait -- sooner or later this will go somewhere. There is more activity recently which is usually an indicator of something.
NorthLion
There will be MM's...what I was trying to say is that the order at .009 was a legitimate order...not just an MM playing games.
The uplisting on MTRE is pending and likely to be complete in a short time (expected to be within two weeks).
Once the uplist is done, the three company acquisitions that have been arranged will be completed, and the LifeHealth spin-off divvy can proceed. This involves giving a FREE share of a second, separate company to existing shareholders of MTRE at a ratio of 1:1. This is like a gift!
When all is said and done, shareholders will own shares in two OTCBB companies, both with solid business plans. MTRE will be focused on research and marketing and will be immediately profitable after the closing of the acquisitions. LifeHealth has plans in place including products to market in the non-prescription dental care market, and is exopected to also be profitable in short-order.
There are likely only a handful of days during which MTRE shares can be bought before the uplisting is done.... at bargain prices, IMO. Further info in the I-Box on the MTRE board.
Now you can't say that you weren't told! Do your own DD.
NorthLion
I have some for sale at .009....trying to free up some money for another play.... no MM here.
NorthLion
And a fine day it was...no MM stuff... no spare spoiler shares kicking around - just steady at .40, and ready for take-off. IMO
Warren Buffett's Philosophy
Warren Buffett descends from the Benjamin Graham school of value investing. Value investors look for securities with prices that are unjustifiably low based on their intrinsic worth. When discussing stocks, determining intrinsic value can be a bit tricky as there is no universally accepted way to obtain this figure. Most often intrinsic worth is estimated by analyzing a company's fundamentals. Like bargain hunters, value investors seek products that are beneficial and of high quality but underpriced. In other words, the value investor searches for stocks that he or she believes are undervalued by the market. Like the bargain hunter, the value investor tries to find those items that are valuable but not recognized as such by the majority of other buyers.
Warren Buffett takes this value investing approach to another level. Many value investors aren't supporters of the efficient market hypothesis, but they do trust that the market will eventually start to favor those quality stocks that were, for a time, undervalued. Buffett, however, doesn't think in these terms. He isn't concerned with the supply and demand intricacies of the stock market. In fact, he's not really concerned with the activities of the stock market at all. This is the implication this paraphrase of his famous quote : "In the short term the market is a popularity contest; in the long term it is a weighing machine."
He chooses stocks solely on the basis of their overall potential as a company - he looks at each as a whole. Holding these stocks as a long-term play, Buffett seeks not capital gain but ownership in quality companies extremely capable of generating earnings. When Buffett invests in a company, he isn't concerned with whether the market will eventually recognize its worth; he is concerned with how well that company can make money as a business.

MTRE reminds me of Warren Buffet - sooo undervalued, and a company that HAS huge earning capability.
Nothing for sale under .40 today.... that is interesting...and I LIKE IT! Glad I picked up what I did in the .30's....
We should be getting news any day, and after that....happiness! Can't wait!
NorthLion
That is very good news, Gerry....
This stock DOES have good upside potential....hope we see it coming through soon.
NorthLion
$oldier...you got lucky today (I am assuming that you did get those .31's)
$oldier, if you don't take those .35's soon...they are probably going to be gone... I have a feeling there are few eyes looking at them and getting hungry...
How about $1.32?
The way the .35's are clicking by, you might have to spring for the extra 4 cents before there are only .40's available. Who knows what they will be going for tomorrow or the next day? It is a pretty tight float....
I thought MM's might have had inventory to try to play games with,but if they did, they didn't have much. JMHO.
I am on the cheapie plan, so can't PM. Please use email: lion@ldj.net
Even friends have limits, $oldier...LOL
Trying to swindle precious MTRE shares is crossing the line!
I am on the cheapie plan, so can't PM. Please use email: lion@ldj.net
you're not getting any of mine $oldier.... LOL
...seems like it is .35's today. Nice to see them going again.
I-Box is updated ftom the March 31st, 2008 10Q.
FBS.... I vote in favour of you taking the position.... go for it!
Very little volume this month. There was a fair bit of action right at the end of June.... but, so far in July, trades on only 3 days and a total volume of 558 shares.
We will need some kind of news before this becomes more active, IMO.
