Rube, I base my trust in the product on the fact that Fred Leonberger, Joe Miller and others are still with the company. There is no way Miller would stake his reputation as well as Corning on being associated with this company unless they had good chance to make it. Also, why would Lou Bintz leave a good job to come here.
If I had to guess, I think Glasgow and Olson are gone or on the way out.
I did not believe we would be trading at this level after the CC but nothing surprises me anymore. We are coming up on the ASM in the next few months and that should be a treat. I assume I will be asking the same question again on whether they will ever buy stock in the open market to give us a vote of confidence. The LSS must have us on lockdown at the moment.
Does anyone have an inkling on how many shares LPC owns?
I am hoping there are articles from MIchelson, Prather, and the LSS. I do believe though we are under the boots of the LSS partner and that is a bummer.
One year anniversary coming up of Tom being named CEO. Many changes and positive developments yet we are down close to 21% from last year at this time. Without some concrete news, we could see a repeat of last year and drift under 90 cents until the ASM. Just a simple dose of reality although I would be a buyer under 95 cents. Almost impossible to time the bottom or top of a stock.
We are in desperate need of some coverage.
Received a note back from IR that they will generate revenue from any stockpiling. Not sure what the article from Seeking Alpha meant that they would not benefit financially from Asia stockpiling.
I was just about to post that article. Trying to understand why they would not generate revenue if countries stockpile their product in Asia. I sent IR an e-mail this evening and will post their reply.
Follow the silver/gold ratio and that is a key barometer. Remember that the silvewr market is very thin and can be controlled by the commercials. Paper market is becoming obsolete and the CFTC and mining industry must get on top of this.
Unless they know something others do not, why would you short a stock at this level with a serious pandemic breaking out. I only issue I could think of is a PP for the company but I do not know their cash position and burn rate.

You might be able to afford this one if LWLG gets moving. Cannot tell you where I got my answer but I stand by my prediction.
OT-BCRX
This is where I have established a new position. The stock had a 10 point move on the last influenza outbreak and I believe this one is huge. Having trouble getting it done in the US but it is approved in Asia(Japan and Korea).
Six, it is Intel. Not too much mystery in that revelation. If the stock breaks one, the poster that wants to sell his shares will have them gobbled up in no time. Frustration is coming to the board again and it is what it is. The best day for me will be when Marcelli is gone from here. It is like a plague has descended on the PPS for a long time. Still a huge believer in the future and my biggest concern is what price we are bought out.
New investor here. Where does BCRX stand with the US grant? I saw that in 2012 that they had suspended the study and was not sure why. Are they able to produce sufficient quantity in Asia to meet demand or is that months out.
I have been buying the Sept 1 and Dec 1 calls instead of the common and the risk /reward is better. Thanks
Send some Philly cops up there and this will be over in 20 minutes.
I spend more in a weekend than that. I wonder what Claude does to earn his options.
My conclusions after looking at all the information.
I have spoken with and e-mailed a number of people over the past week. These people know more about the workings of industry and also LWLG than most. Gathering all the facts makes me come to the realization that there is not much we can do but wait for the inevitable buyout coming in the next 12-18 months. LWLG has now become a CD maturing in 18 months with an unknown price tag.
1) The LSS is putting us in the deep freeze thru NDA agreements that precludes Tom from mentioning their name. The reasons are they want the PPS to remain low as to prevent a spike up and they will try to get us cheaply. They will not buy a minority stake (I guessed wrong on this) because we are too small for them. They also do not want their name getting out to other large LSS and a bidding war would erupt at a much higher price.
2) We are not going to build out as management can leave here financially secure for life. Who wants to work and travel when you can cash in and plan your own future.
3)There is going to be a lot more exasperation at the price stagnates but it will move higher and that is a given.
I am getting tired of checking for info every day and making calls and putting out e-mails. I have another fish to fry with two of the poster here and we need that company to get into gear.
LWLG will be bought out 100% IMO. Just a matter of what management and stockholders settle for. As one friend pointed out,he will be investing a portion of his profits in the acquirer. That is a very smart move.
Curious as to what very large shareholders think is a reasonable price for Lightwave. The key for current shareholders is how much patience you will have in the next 12 months. I will be moving on now and post sparingly. X is an egotist but he has it right here and I do value his info. Our key will be to have the top brass in place when ***** wants to set a price. Associate 5 letters with the LSS.
GLTA- The road will be bumpy but we are golden.
Just get rid of the dead wood and this stock will rocket. Black cats are bad for everyone.
I do not drink beer and would still take that bet(lol).
Most of the posters know who it is and so do I but will not reveal it. I am concerned with getting the word out and the PPS to get going. I want to be at higher levels if and when we hit.
Six, you are 75% off.
My short term wish is too see an activist shareholders come aboard and to see management make some insider purchases. I do not want to go into the deep freeze again and be trading at 90 cents come the ASM. A good way to measure a company is the PPS and visibility. We are severely lacking in both. It is what it is. I am afraid the LSS is going to steal a big position in us at a deep discount to what we are truly worth.The IP alone with all the markets they are talking about has to be north of 10.
I can tell you that one of the crew that posts on LWLG on Yahoo and dislikes it told many to sell at 1.68. That was a great call and you could have sold a lot of your holdings. Long term it might seem like a ridiculous number but that was a short term gem. Amazing how this has always been a dump on news stock. Not exactly a ringing endorsement for the company.
Disregard my advice when it is 50 and raining outside. Off to the gun store and then on to the gym and shopping soon.
Ugly day for the portfolio and especially commodities.
Walter would be great but he is always on travel and is on the European Senior Golf Circuit. I feel he would shirk his duties.
Invesor86 would be ideal to replace Cordevano. Bright guy with the energy to deal with shareholders and get the word out. I wonder how many calls Tom is getting from large shareholders on the lousy PPS. This is getting real old.
Gotta run again. This is good exercise.
One more point to add. When you see people come on here and say they are not worried about the PPS and we are on the verge of greatness, do not believe a word of it. Why LWLG is trading down at this level is beyond me and does have me concerned. If you are a shareholder, you are always concerned. Mismanagement will trump any good science. I believe we are going places but the train can always derail in the process.
Gotta run
My thoughts are that the LSS does not want the PPS to rise so that they can buy in or take us out on the cheap.
Everyone is giddy except for the PPS. LWLG has done a terrible job of promoting this company.
You must be in wonderful shape for all the running you do.
We will now have to see if Tom is up to the task of attracting investors to our stock. He seems to have done a good job of cleaning up the past mistakes.
I am of the belief that LWLG will be bought out in the next 24 months. I wish I knew the price tag but am hoping for a 3:1 split in the interim and a Google /Intel war for the company.
You sure seem to be flip flopping Half.
No, I am just talking about the deadwood we still have at the company and advisors to it. Read nothing into it.
Best piece of advice now is put LWLG on your stock alert and walk away from the computer for awhile. This is where the impatience will grow again. They have already delivered the CC and 10-k and there might be a few months of dead quiet. Sitting at your desk or laptop watching paint dry is not good for the mind or body. Near 80 and sunny in the Philly area today. Cannot beat it. Tomorrow could bring a nuclear warhead compliments of the fat Korean kid .
The bottom line is that the speculative money is gone from the market. Years ago you could lose 20,000 dollars chasing Lightwave and selling it only to make it up somewhere else. The broad market is big firm driven. Most people have their money in mutuals and go along with the rest of the sheep.
Until LWLG announces a working device and a big name partner, we shall drift.
do not read much into this. The share price is what it is. I withdraw that comment.
excellent post
Also Red I have never seen a message board with this many intelligent posters. Some of these guys are amazing in the info they procure. I am not one for connecting the dots but if only three of them hook up, we are on our way.
I also believe Invesor should be a board moderator. He is a good medium for posters.
Red,
LWLG for the past four years has been a terrible trading stock. Except for two runs (2009/2012) the vast majority of the time it has been in the freezer. I am invested here but would have like the stock to have more of a fan base so you could trade a portion for profit. As far as the future, I would bet we see a nice move upwards however management needs to get the word out. IR for some reason is a real drag and that can be attributed to the former CEO. Also, a behind the scenes player is also hurting us(cannot mention a name).
You are right in I feel the next move up might be a sign of things to come. We should be in the bottom of the 9th and Albert Pujols is our cleanup hitter. Whether he hits a home run 3 months from now or a year from now is almost a given but the wait will be brutal.
After listening to the CC, I am fairly certain that Lou Glasgow and Chuck Olson are either in mothballs or no longer with LWLG. Chuck would have been point man on the LSS and Lou's name would have been sure to pop up.
Stock held up fairly well today considering there might be a long silence in the coming months.
The people I am talking about do not even rate a code. You would not even know they are gone.
The key for LWLG in the next few months is to keep shareholders informed with PR's detailing progress. The biggest improvements will have to be in getting LWLG out to large investors and institutions as we get a device closer to fruition. It will be back to bitching if we are sitting at 1 come July-August. The Admiral has to realize that there are certain employees that need to be shown the door. The phrase "We hold the cards" should be evident to him and he should not let others in the office dictate what we can and cannot say. Draw your own conclusions on who should go. I can name 2 inside and 1 on the outside looking in.
What is the area they are working in that Tom mentioned at the ASM describing the ability to see clearly if a helicopter is landing in the desert. That market alone is worth billions.
Either I am the dumbest guy on the planet or we are sitting on a highly profitable investment.I can see why weak hands get out of a stock such as the selling on the news Friday however the potential here is astronomical. Once management has a device in hand that is ready, then the roadshow begins. In the meantime we need to start pushing this stock to the media. This is where I see the weak link. Two pieces of deadwood dominate this area of expertise.
Why don't you call him directly and get your answer.
What I cannot understand is that a lot of posters were available for the call and did not ask questions. You need to step up and ask a question if you believe it has not been addressed.
