EPGL - a good gamble, IMO; @ 0.0021 - an easy double potential in less than a month. Just grabbed some @ 0.0021.
Mike
Agree. 0.0021 is a good entry. An easy double in less than 1 month, IMO.
Mike
Nice: "Net operating income was $22,487, compared with ($13,091) in January 2006, representing a major increase of 272%."
This is good news, and yes the February revenue (and net revenue) will definitevely be even better.
Mike
CKEI - good news! Should move today, IMO
Mike
Has the Great Depression of 2007 begun? DJIA's lost went down from - 270 to -532 in minutes. Not a good time to hold large PPS stocks in this crazy environment. Exceptions: Energy stocks, especially anything that has to do with Renewable Energy.
If the Iran "show" starts (as many expect)..... I just refuse to think about it.
Mike
Anyone cares to guess the revenue for January? We should get it any day now. Things look good, IMO.

Despite having some money problems, both MOBL and GDVI are solid companies, and this 3 years lows for both of them can't be justified other than due to MM's (and other large groups) plays. MOBL it looks it started it's move back (at least from the level you and I got back in. It's GDVI's time, IMO. Around the 15-th next month the 10-Q should come out. Over the last ten (yes 10) Q's the company had a positive net revenue, except for the last Q - which triggered the drop. I'm still loading at this prices, and hope for the best.
Mike
GDVI added yesterday to the SHO list:
http://www.nasdaqtrader.com/aspx/regsho.aspx
The MM's will have to cover, eventually. Good time to load IMO. Any triggering event will send the PPS on a near verticle curve.
Mike
Yes, indeed. MOBL surely looks like an overkill. See also GDVI. Picked some more today. Another overkill, IMO.
Mike
Stock,
I got some MOBL over the last two days. The company is forced to accept more poisonous money from Cornell to pay for opperations and interest. It might still go a bit lower, but not below 0.03 I believe. I just took a chance, and I may buy some more, but not too many shares. The OS is getting to high for my confort level.
Mike

Watch CKEI move next month. Good entry point in the low 0.003's, IMO.
The company sells heating oil. With record low temperatures expected for at least one more month in the North-East, their sales should go through the roof this month (compared to the last few months when due to the hot weather the sales were not all that great, although better than last year):
http://news.aol.com/topnews/articles/_a/six-feet-of-snow-blankets-upstate-new/20070208094109990001
PS: Anyone else got into PMED recently? I took a low 0.003's gamble, and got lucky. Sold it yesterday and today for close to 1,100% gain. Not bad for a month investment. CKEI (although not guaranteed) could do the same by next month. Check it out!
Mike
Good luck folks. Got out this morning.
mike
Congrats to everyone that bought recently in the 0.003's. I'm one of the lucky ones, and before the EOD got half of my reward. Too good to pass it by.
Just curious. Any of the old folks still here?

Mike
Thanks "cybu." I only gamble small amounts ($400, in this case), so I can take the loss is the R/S comes (in which case I'll be among the first to sell). I'll keep it fo a while. I need a 5 MOMO to cover the loss here. My history here: Got in @ 0.003 average, and out @ 0.0021.
Mike
Gambling time! Finally got my whole 0.0001 buy order through. It took a while (almost 2 weeks). Problem is if we can dispose them b4 the R/S (which most probably will come soon, IMO). Any smart opinion on what the chance is we (the 0.0001 entrants, that is) to get at least a 5 MOMO (or 0.0005, in my case)?
Mike
John,
Re: "what u think about pups r u still holding ur position"
Unfortunately, yes. I don't see any news as of late here, so I have no idea what's going on. We might have to fork it.
Mike
http://www.iht.com/articles/2007/01/23/bloomberg/bxcom.php
It looks like you got in just in time:
"Oil extended its rise on the spread of colder weather that is likely to increase U.S. consumption of heating fuel." ....
"The eastern two-thirds of the United States will experience below-normal temperatures next week, the National Weather Service said.
Signs that an El Niño weather system may be weakening led meteorologists at the U.S. Climate Prediction Center to revise their outlook for temperatures in the eastern United States for February.
They now forecast a greater chance for below-normal temperatures across the eastern third of the country through the end of next month."

Both, for different good reasons - too many to mention. I, at least, bought recently plenty of additional CKEI, and GDVI.
Mike
Re: "What do you consider fair value for this stock with its current fundamentals?"
Mahalo,
The PPS should be way above 0.1 right now. Once the 10-K (due in March) comes out, this can go much higher. It could even spike to 0.3's.
You have to do your own DD (no pain, no gain), and take into account not only the fundamentals, but also many other factors - including geo-politicals:
http://www.digitalapps.net/IR/thestarnews_061219.html
Note: The best strategy (that works for me): when I like a stock potential I won't wait for the bottom. Missed to many opp's because of this. Rather, I establish a good position at a price I think is right, and then average it down if the price goes still further down.
PS: Just do not trust some of these folks posting here that say you can buy it at low 0.05's again. I think not. The stock is way undervalued as it is, and you'll be amased what with the kind of PPS growth (sheeple induced) once the MM's decide to let it go.
Good luck, and again do your own DD.
Mike
Are you folks also looking at fundamentals, or just following the charts. Charts are good, but they only relay on past trends. Fundanmentals it's what should (quite nicely, IMO) jump start this stock in the very near future.
(From memory, so might not be very accurate, but close enough take or give). Using my DD post (see several postings below):
1. The company expects $44M to $48M gross revenue, and $1.5M to $2M net revenue for 2007. Right now, I'm not aware of any other penny stock with this much potential sitting at below 0.1/share (if any of you know another such stock, I would very much appreciate you posting it here).
2. The best (to me) indicator, the Price/Sales (P/S) ratio of below 0.3, tells me the PPS at this point is way undervalued. The rule of tumb for a penny company with a proven good growth potential, the P/S should be between 1.5 and 2.0 (some of them go as high as several hundred and even thousand). So, in my books, once the first results confirm #1, the PPS has a very good chance to go up by at least 500%.
3. Have you seen the very recent three Form 4's? Although the CEO already owns over 50MM shares, he is still buying, and so is the Company's Secretary.
4. OS is quite stable (at only $138 MM - out of Yahoo financing info, and as confirmed by the last 10-Q). Even better, the float is just above 80 MM. The insiders own most of the balance.
I hope the above at least will encourage some of you to analyse the fundamentals, and see why I believe SDGL will bring some big smiles on many faces this year.
Mike
Word of caution: "''We are very pleased with our semiconductor finger technology which has increased the average conversion efficiencies of our best monocrystalline PV cells to 18%"
The so called "semiconductor finger" technology it is in fact the adoption of a solar cell design that includes a "Selective Emitter (SE)" feature. SE is necessary for a very high efficiency cell, especioally the "dirty" cell designs and manufacturing procedures that involves the "dirty" but cheap screen printed contacts. For the efficiency to increase the surface emitter net carrier concentration has to be as high as possible (just below the P solubility level, or above E+21/cm3)yet low enough between the front grid fingers.
I hate to bore you with tech details. The SE concept has been tried by various labs for well over 30 years, yet no good (read cost effective) solution has been found as yet. The UNSWA SE scheme (where a n-type dopant is included into the front grid Ag-based screen printing paste prior to firing it) has been already tried by BP, and the result was only a very marginal efficiency increase, as: (i) the possible firing temperature is too low for the n++ layer to form, and (ii) lateral diffusion of this dopant widen the grid line.
Just wanted you to know: don't get too exited about the possibility of any near-term 18% c-Si solar cell efficiency using low grade Si substrates as the company would want you to believe.

*** 2006, a very good year for solar power:
And the future looks even better.
1. New Solar Homes Partnership Under Way in California

2. Sunshine in the Public IPO Markets
by J. Peter Lynch (Yes indeed, he's the well renown Wall Street guru, you for sure know all about, except probably for the fact that he's been a promoter of solar power for quite sometimes)
http://www.renewableenergyaccess.com/rea/news/story?id=46950
3. Clean Energy’s Big Year
Year in Review: 2006 saw milestones for solar and wind power, as well as clean steps for cars.
http://www.redherring.com/Article.aspx?a=20516&hed=Clean+Energy%E2%80%99s+Big+Year+
PS: I just saw it myself, and it's beyond anyone's expectations. Due to the Si shortage (which latest credible news show it will start relaxing beyond 2007), mostly everyone (including myself) was expecting a smaller increase rate for 2006. It looks we were wrong, as if Mike Rogol (one of the best name in making good PV prognoses, although over the last few years the PV market seem to have always toped his best scenario estimates) is right, with a 58% increase over 2005, 2006 will indeed be a landmark year for PV. This is so, especially considering that it blew past the old growth records (since 1995), despite what was considered to be the peak year for the poly-Si raw material supply shortages. This is indeed very good news for the PV community, as the growth rate it's expected to go even faster beyond 2007: "Michael Rogol, managing director for Photon Consulting, in October estimated that global solar industry sales would reach $19 billion this year. That expectation was raised from $16 billion in March, and represents a 58 percent increase from 2005."
The previous 2006 growth rate estimate that I was aware of, was quite a bit less than the new 58% estimate above. Most predictions I knew about were a more modest 20% to 40% range increase over 2005 (and the most credible to me sources - including Mike Rogol - were in the 30% to 35% increase range).

http://money.cnn.com/2006/10/26/magazines/business2/solar_siliconvalley.biz2/index.htm?postversion=2...
I could go on, and on, but let's end it here with an extract from the above article: "solar energy has just the sort of oversize potential that the titans of tech saw in computing: a free and practically inexhaustible power source that rises every day." Indeed, at $19 Billion (presumably, as per # 3) market value in 2006, this is just the very beginning of the expected things to come for the PV, i.e., a global market approaching $1T, by 2025 as some believe.
Best to all in 2007!

Anyone still here? If so (and if you do celebrate Christmas), may you have a very Merry Christmas (*), and a prosperous New Year.
I believe after the year end tax sale SDGL will jump up in January.
Mike
--------------------------
(*) FYI: http://www.holidays.net/christmas/voices.htm
OT: 'dtstx,' I got out of it earlier this year on its run up to 0.03. When it moves too fast, too much (from 0.004, where I got in), and you get close to 800% gain, that's the only good move, IMO. Bought some more @ below 0.01 after it came back, but soon realized it won't get anywhere, so I sold them at near breakdown soon thereafter.
I trust the new CEO is full of good intentions, and determined to turn the company around. If he could put together the China deal, PMED could come out as a big winner. In a very competitive medical devices business, the China deal was about the only promissing way to jump start the company. Too bad the CEO could not do it.

(If) no NT today (last year they had one on Dec. 13), we may get the 10-Q this week. Looking forward to see it.
Mike
Just a tip: Invest in good value start-up companies (e.g., solar, energy efficiency, hydrogen economy, etc.) that are directly or indirectly addressing the global warming issues.
A. Is the global warming a real issue? See the videos below, and decide for yourselves.
As some of you well know, these type of warnings are quite frequent in Europe, Japan, and elsewhere. Not here, thus far, at least not in the main TV channels, and major newspapers. While I'm not an environmentalist expert, some of the warnings (although, probably a bit exaggerated) make a lot of sense to me. I'm glad to see some timid move here in the US as of late to address the problem, especially in the western states:
http://today.reuters.com/news/articlenews.aspx?type=domesticNews&storyid=2006-12-02T000050Z_01_N...
B. General Interest
The interest in the global warming issue is increasing, and once it will become even more known by the public at large, I predict a "rebellious" global move will start, and when it will arrive it will come with a vengeance. Any business leaders (and their companies) in related fields that are smart enough to see it coming and start doing something about it "today," will be the big winners "tomorrow."
1. A must see:
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=1027879546389218797&q=Global+Dimming&hl=en
2. On the same subject (Global Dimming):
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=358026383514035106&q=Global+Dimming&hl=en
(a bit too long, and fluffy but worth seeing)
3. Another recent BBC good documentary video:
http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article15818.htm
If you wish to see it, you must see both parts.
C. What's new?
The novelty in terms of addressing the global warming related issues as I see it is that is not longer only the "concerned scientists," informed public, and few governments that see the need for a public debate and concrete action, but even organizations (such as Religion) that usually do not get directly involved in these type of discourse start talking about it:
Just a few examples (a bit old data - part of a much larger collection of data I collected for a presentation I made last month on Solar PV power):
1. WASHINGTON, DC, US, November 8, 2006 (Refocus Weekly) Six countries have endorsed detailed action plans and renewable energy projects that will implement the Asia-Pacific Partnership on Clean Development & Climate as an alternative to the Kyoto Protocol.
The public-private partnership involves Australia, China, India, Japan, Republic of Korea and the United States, which collectively consume more than half of the world's energy. The first meeting took place in Australia in January, where first ministers established eight task forces, including renewables & distributed generation, power generation & transmission, cleaner fossil energy, buildings & appliances, aluminium, cement, coal mining and steel.
2. Clean Energy Ballot for Washington State
November 8, 2006
Initiative Could Save $1.1 B on Electric Bills by 2025
A new analysis of the long-term effects of Washington State's Initiative 937, which requires larger utility companies to invest in renewable energy and adopt low-cost energy conservation practices, finds that the ballot measure is expected to result in $1.13 billion in cumulative savings on consumer electricity bills in Washington by 2025.
3. Church coalition calls for more renewables
WASHINGTON, DC, US, November 8, 2006 (Refocus Weekly) Churches in the United States can reduce utility costs by US$8,000 to $17,000 a year by using clean energy technologies and increasing energy efficiency, according to a report from the National Council of Churches USA.
“We believe that church stewardship includes a responsible budget and a deep concern for God’s creation,” says Cassandra Carmichael of the NCC. “Protecting communities from carbon pollution and the impacts of global warming is our moral and religious responsibility.”
The NCC is an ecumenical voice of 35 different Protestant, Anglican, Orthodox, historic African American and peace churches with 45 million members in 100,000 congregations. It has produced a report, ‘Bottom Line Ministries that Matter: Congregational Stewardship with energy efficiency & clean energy technologies,’ to outline how churches can reduce carbon emissions and reduce their overall utility expenses.
“The world is increasingly bound together as a global community; Christians are called to create right relationships, both social and ecological, with all of God’s creation,” it adds. “The burning of fossil fuels for energy use disproportionately impacts the health of communities of colour, people living in poverty, and children. People of faith have the opportunity to put their faith in action to create a more just, sustainable world through their energy choices.”
4. Survey shows American preference for solar over wind
CAMBRIDGE, Massachusetts, US, November 8, 2006 (Refocus Weekly) Residents of the United States rank climate change as the country’s most pressing environmental problem, compared with a sixth-place ranking in a 2003 survey by MIT.
Three-quarters of respondents feel the government should do more to deal with global warming, and individuals were willing to spend their own money to help, according to 1,200 people who were surveyed in 2003 and a follow-up survey in September of this year. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology undertook the original survey to determine what people thought about carbon capture & storage, and found that 90% had never heard of CCS. The 2006 survey showed similar results.
“While terrorism and the war in Iraq are the main issues of national concern, there’s been a remarkable increase in the American public’s recognition of global warming and their willingness to do something about it,” says Stephen Ansolabehere of MIT. “It’s not that people have learned something fundamental about the science, but they’ve come to understand that this problem is real.”
Respondents are more willing to spend their own money to do something about the problem, with the 2003 results showing that people would pay an average of $14 more per month on electricity bills to solve global warming, compared with $21 more per month on the 2006 survey. Officials say $21 for each of the 100 million homes in the U.S. would mean $25 billion per year.
D. Hopefully, January 2007 will start showing some good steps toward addressing the global warming/energy independence complex issues:
The 20 days Bollinger bands start looking good:

Re: "I am just wondering of something has changed and if there is bigger news on the horizon."

This is where copanies such as Produce Safety that have a good solution to the problem will come to not only survive, but do very well, IMO.

It looks like the December tax sale is slowing down. Good graph forming. The revenue (and for sure the net revenue) shall continue improving, and with it the prospects for a significant PPS gain is a no brainer.
Mike
Re: PUPSE
John, all I know is that several days after the NT, they filled the 10-Q. So I have no idea why the "E" has not been removed as yet.
Truth is that after the nice podcast, there has not been any news at all. In any event, I loaded some more this week, just in case. I don't see any dilution, which is good. So, after "E" is gone, I hope for some upside move.
PS: As allways, do your own DD. I'm still very busy with my own business, so I won't be very active here.

Re: CKEI
Now a pinkie, but continuing its improved sales/gross revenue march (see today PR). After the new independent auditor finishes the work on the past due revised 10-K, and the company goes back to OTC:BB, I see a very good growth potential (both revenue, and PPS).
