More and more are less reliant on Advisors for their investment decisions, and real-time associative ads I thought might be way to get more awareness and interest in HACK ETF. Its the first time view that does seem to que the small investor to consider a buy.
A nice little sidebar that states something akin to
HACK ETF is a way to invest in current major and innovative cyber-security firms and their stocks. HACK is up X% since inception in 2014, and continues to adjust its firm count, internationally, looking for the best possibilities for appreciation.
It might not hurt to flash the sidebar a couple of times.
My point is to try and reach the casual investor real-time, as they watch the news and 'face book'.
Identity stealing is growing challenge and care for everyone, from professional to the little folk.
Interesting aside: paying with credit cards and check at your health-care provider and hospitals . . . is dawning significance source of cyber-security leaks of your personal data. It was stated person carting the info to the data thief, gets up to $50 or more/ targeted personal info sell. I do not understand why there is not a random scrambler chip on our credit cards, to hide out personal information.
Electronic networked health care was supposed to help lower out health care costs. Nothing is perfect and the hack goes on.
Buy HACK ETF to back-stop your person potential cyber identity losses . . . who would have thought? THERE . . . creep hacker thug . . . take that!
Looks like they kicked the can down the road, and will let coming administration election deal with it?
TRN is letting government determine how to transport flammable, etc. chemicals and then, who will carry the legality burden, if 'things' happen? <---'We were there . . . but didn't do it' (write the rules).
Fix-it-Before-its-Broke . . . is so out of fashion
Lead from Behind
Maybe we shall we note downturn now for ZNGA?
Overall, stock market is seemingly dropping slowly, as it becomes apparent that petrol prices did not translate into more retail commerce buy volume, and that healthcare plan costs are now mandatory for wage earners (and forcing 20-25% of spending into health care costs of all kinds). <---even cash co-pays went higher for consumers.
We could keep-on-going with the toping trend in the market, and enter a deeper recession, beginning in next two quarters, as folks hoard cash and pay down their credit.
Conversely, this could mean ZNGA will be in a market sector (home and mobile entertainment) that benefits from 'stay-cation' economics. Options closure didn't seem that impressive, one way or the other. For example, were the options placed a cross-sector balancing bet? That is the puzzle we never know, in the mix?
Facebook: within recent pass its been somewhat of negative captive relationship, for VG companies. Ten Cent could be set up to eat Face book lunch. Who will Asians prefer, or be 'pushed' to use, by their governments (that control access to internet); as they receive infrastructure capital investment from new Chinese investments? I think ZNGA was better off going with .10 as its future.
USA power players in DC are off playing games elsewhere . . . the Chinese are focusing on buying up USA domestic and foreign markets, while technologically challenging their competitors in them? With our added lack of domestic infrastructure investment and attendant needed jobs and tax revenues thereof, what could possibly go wrong?
My guess . . . short-term stock price folds somewhat, and towards fall and holiday season . . . ZNGA blasts pass the 3.50 mark.
I think that will be smart move.
Biggest problem right now is getting the word out that HACK ETF is available to general public investors, as a very nice way to play the cyber security market. HACK might think about making an offer to various forms of media, that every time a cyber security incident happens, HACK gets mentioned in the article or a paid ad off on a side-bar? A whole lot better than just going on say CNBC as a quest?
YF has two artls. out today about cyber security issues, and ISIS is building a cyber attack force (looking to include potential religious converts that are computer science grads from EU and USA). It shouldn't take too much guessing to figure where that might be headed.
Few realize that WWIII can happen via cyber-attacks, and that second and third string players can carry out the attacks for the big players: plausible denial.
Unless you are quite successful short-term trading stocks and have a lot of time to constantly research this cyber-security sector . . . why not let HACK do the work for one?
HACK is alert to new IPOs and its staff appear capable of spreading the sector risk, across several foreign weighed cyber-security companies.
We have, as a planetary society, now reached the point wherein we cannot advantage out technological pyramid of progress, without a complete overhaul of our cyber-security systems.
I do not know how, nor desire to spend vast amounts of time, trying to guess who or where starling new cyber-security advantages will come from. The cyber-security industry is in its infant stage of development. Even the recent Amtrak train accident has cyber-security involvement: more cameras and mobile health-state monitors should be implemented, for example.
Present and future conflicts will involve increasing amounts of spending for cyber-security.
HACK ETF does seem to be the best way to ride all these unique and necessary facets of investing in cyber-security?
Try to name a company, that cannot have cyber-security protection needs in its future. Many $Billions will have to be spent, continuely to master this danger.
Good.
Watched the movie trailer of Mission Impossible: Ghost protocol to be referred to below as MI:GP.
Expect movie to appeal to his audience worldwide.
my estimate only: USA gross $25-100Mil
International gross $400-550Mil
cost of film to make = $125 Mil
cost of GLUU VG of MI:GP = $1-5 Mil
I assume Tom Cruise and film companies to get 20-50% of VG Revenues, depending on possible GLUU stock options to same?
GLUU ends up with $20-75Mil Revenues out of the worldwide gross
plays of VG?
MI:GP take may top Terminator: Genesis Movie Revenues Take.
As Tom Cruise, at this point in time, is held in higher favorite than Arnold as Actor (though both actors are huge overall earners).
GLUU stock price easily $8 and perhaps to $12 or higher by Mar 2016?
GLUU may get new Star Trek Movie VG rights . . . and maybe something from next Bruce W. movie?
We have a lot riding on Cruise and Arnold and James Bond VGs outcomes, as Paramount and its associate production studio is opening new ground with an alliance with GLUU for associative release VGs. One just has to have the feeling 'We is in coin land! Folks!
DIS bot Marvel . . . and the new game is VG co-release with Movies for mobile play. Offer Ad Game/Movie T-shirts to every X quantity of players volume?
Wonder what DIS and the other movie companies be wondering . . . should e get Glue-ed?
Also . . . imagine if GLUU could get an Asian power distribution set-up like Ten Cent now has with ZNGA?
Sure hope GLUU has big Ad budget for up-coming Movie/VG associative releases. We might just beat Mr. Musk Space-X To The Moon!
Noticed this on another board as PR.
It was hard to get my head around Deadliest Catch as a possible VG, however with Discovery Channel tie-in it will be test to watch how players acceptance develops.
Reading up some on Hyper Power Game Group alliance with TAPM, they are a rather unique and dynamic 'not afraid to seek unconventional VG content' type of INDIE company. <---that's a plus for game development content, as their style of creating VG content is wild and sure to find novel appeal for low-end and mid-range VG mobile players.
VG development cost budgeting for some of these 'blocky' character/scenery in-game content, like 'Burn-It-Down!' is maybe in something of the range of $25-100K contracts? I could be off in my cost estimate, but with a pre-developed block game engine that can rapidly format and fill-in game structure . . . it can't be too far off-base. These low-budget blocky VGs are great $ creators, that can make a budget surplus for a more complex and expensive VG.
Probably a lot of folks that use to believe in TAPM, lost that belief as the stock price fell. I have watched TAPM for some time, and have come to appreciate its potential as a game company.
TAPM (right now) seemingly is one of the best low-stock price VG companies available to investors. They are not afraid to take chances and do seek out very good alliances, that will have potential to add to their bottom profit line-up. Its normal creative process to make and have FAILURES, and then reassess and try again. You can't make perfect.
The VG development model TAPM is using (Indies) as VG co-developers, is super smart and makes VG happen faster. Its a win-win for both parties involved.
I am thinking TAPM has nailed down the low-end of the VG market, as opposed to say EA . . . which has to face heavy $$s competition.
TAPM is no EA . . . though its revenue growth % can surely be an attractive feature in its segment of the VG pie. Especially IF we do really rather good in the social casino mobile play area.
I am very comfortable with my first purchase under .30 and will buy some more if price drops and I can catch it.
Concur with what you say.
I think tank cars are cheaper way to transfer energy fluids (and other fluids), and in special set aside rail storage yards can become 'energy parks' in-country to duplicate large tank-type
oil storage.
If many states are going to be experiencing drought conditions and
water shortages, TRN could be an active source of 'water tank' railcars as a go-between say sea-water distilled water sourcing and those water scare sites? The idea that natural resources (like water) are cost-less is way obsolete . . . and for too long . . . the commons has been treated in commerce as something that can be used and abused. This is not good capitalism and resource use, scientifically and culturally. There are logical and moral costs to a society and economy, that makes the environment an 'off-books' accounting procedure: we have to live in what we create.
I am thinking water transport railcars are 'in-the-world-view' soon to transpire, and TRN would be wise to pursue this development immediately; and team up with states like Calif. and the larger commercial water provider companies. Water tank cars can also lessen the land fill and oceanic dumping of massive amounts of plastic water bottles environment dilemma. TRN should move to demo its ability to create 'water trains' . . . <---be proactive towards dawning markets. Never be afraid to innovate: its called free enterprise.
Neat find.
What an unusual twist to slot games.
According to what I have read, younger legal age players at Vegas, etc. are coming for the floor shows and entertainment.
This just might go over with Bricks-And-Mortar Casinos, as a way to engage new business opportunities. Obviously, some of KK present mobile VG players will follow KK to Vegas and Reno.
If this style of slot games works, it could open up new legs for KK and other Celebs to enter the social slot game market.
It will be several years (I am guessing), before the old building casinos owners, cede to the ever growing VG mobile slot game play market growth, as new source of revenues. State governments simply will not wait for them, as they want the tax take to help fill-in their budget deficits. <---the other problem herein is businesses like quik-stops that sell Lotto tickets, are fighting a losing battle to also keep mobile players from buying online lotto, etc. gambling tickets. This can be solved, if states are clever enough to let local Quik-stops be the source via WiFi (in their marketing area locally), to sell these type of online gambling/lotto tickets? There really is a lack of imagination on state lottery boards?
Thanks for the info, as it answers some of my questions.
I do not have Apple device (yes, some of us are in the bottom 97%); so will wait for Android launch, or laptop PC launch.
I bot some of TAPM down here, just to play another form (.pk) of gambling/mobile VG companies. Its small, but has revenues stream slowly climbing, and is innovating itself.
Waiting to buy back into ZNGA also. <---do I like to gamble on gambling stocks? Yes. This is going to be hot area IMO.
My TAPM target price is up 100-200% in next two years time frame.
COOL was a big wash-out as an online gambling stock pick.
I foresee a battle royal in next few years, for these small VG companies to continue in existence.
Lets see if TAPM does a paid promo in next 2 months.
Folks it is looking like we just bounce around 3.00 to 2.25 area until we get some definitive news on success of casino games?
Anyone suspecting ZNGA is sitting up to go into actual online paid (money) casino gambling, down the road in 2016-2017? It would not be much of a stretch to expand 'social casino' into
something individual USA states could contract for, as way to increase tax revenue.
The old guard in bricks-and-mortar casinos is facing a real challenge from mobile gaming play. However; powerful they are in places like NV they still cannot fight the huge monies that Amazon and Goggle have. The other 'problem' is politically, no one is really interested in re-starting domestic USA. The Internationalists and Mega-corps. and top 5% are doing just fine.
Within in such a challenging jobs and tax environment domestically, the physical casino gambling model is suffering a loss of MC and LC spending visitors. Stay-Kations (relaxing at home) or on the street scene, is becoming the new virtual source of thrill.
And, mobile gaming plays right into it.
I have this vision that ZNGA 'gets it' . . . and if they can display good social casino game execution by 2015 winter . . . partners and buy-out possibilities will b an additional stock price support for ZNGA.
I am thinking ZNGA, has chose to license slot VG material as a way to more quickly accelerate their time table of launch, and that they have secured the right to modify those lic VGs.
I also am pondering the notion that ZNGA will be active after E3 in making some new acquisition/partnering. My perception is we are viewing quit soon a consolidation of small VG companies, and ZNGA can trade (maybe) shares and some front money, to in-effective garner the spoils, so to speak?
The new model of business is to lease services and talent.
Note how effective the large Pharmas are in seeking partnerships with small biotechs (cheaper, faster and 'the egg-on-face' falls away from the larger company mmgt)?
This is great news, and what I had hoped they would do (expand Social Casino Mobile Play). Looking like most of lay-offs are in over-sight middle mmgt. (giving development teams more freedom to experiment?).
Who did they license from, EU developers?
And, does ZNGA now have rights to expand the games content via their in-house developers? They were not very clear about that, in their PRs.
That might well be a wise idea (to drop back to analog after digital signal task accomplished). If one has access to Sat data link plans, that operate separate from ground power grid points, having a back-up of a few solar cells in-house could give you some minimal com capability in emergent conditions?
Someone told me soon to have semi-trucks on highways and drive-less cars. Such are going to need super safe security systems?
We (in USA and else-where) are light years from safe grid systems.
Those two guys that were shot in Texas who attempted to 'lead spray' that Muslim Art Fest, appear to have been sleeper cell. They were not 'caught' as dangerous traffic (and to be watched) by present super-computer SW programs data scans. Translation: this has potential to happen, as tourism and student and work vistas and illegals transformer themselves. Unfortunately, this means more business for anti-hacking companies, in our society.
HACK should see steady retail investor buy-ins, as they mention us in the news storm.
With 'clouding' of personal and business datum, anti-hacking efforts constitute a valid dawning growth industry.
Thanks for the reply.
As in a past post herein, I agree nothing much will come out of these types of 'legal activity'.
TRN should offer them nothing, as nothing has been proven against TRN?
TRN is giving us shareholders a gentle bump up in earned dividend rate. This is looking like TRN answer to demands it pay-out to the legal slugs?
IF the powers-that-be in control of USA economy ever chose to restart it, TRN should be good to go higher in stock price.
It would seem to be smarter to upgrade rail network and tank car standards, than to built a pipeline across some of our best farm land. The heavy crude tar sands from Canada need to 'be cut' with a mixer fluid to make them flow properly. And, you have to dispose of that mixer when you process the Tar Sands oil at a refinery. A pipeline would have to be 'flushed' out, to ship anything else in it. Conversely, a tank car is easier to flush out, and rail lines can carry all kinds of products all over the place.
Cannot find much about TAPM.
What are the chances TAPM can get their casino game out this year (they say in next 1-3 months will be out). Will TAPM 'think' to offer free prizes and discount coupons, in such casino games?
Did time magazine pick TAPM game as one of best so far in 2015, would that choice be due to puzzle VG being basically a 'safe' game for kids to play (no violence)?
Will TAPM show off its new stuff at coming E3 in June?
Employees are 10-15, as of early 2014?
They use contracted game developers?
Are they switching strategy to INDIE VG writer?
This might mean they will partner/contract with some folks displaying at E3?
Some number of their VGs look like something from 1970s era caliber.
You have to be a 'genius' to program block figure action pixels?
Maybe TAPM can make $$s putting out an educational VG teaching fundamentals of rudimentary VG programing? Nothing wrong with that . . . and TIME will make it another 2015 hit.
It could develop into something lots of home schoolers and light weight public schools could afford for their students?
Basic intro. to programing skills is the key to turning education and job skills around for students.
Anyone care to talk about above?
Investment by USA companies in anti-hacking SW services is up around 5-7% for 2015 projected.
The top leaders of our companies are now seeing, the blame for hacking successes against their companies landing on their own desks, not that of security in-house departments.
HACK is the new growth model ETF investing profile?
The USA anti-hacking policy is now to go on the offensive against illegal hackers. Cyber-warfare involves attacks on your competitor's economy and businesses.
The 'attacks' will involve striking at cyber infrastructure and communication lines . . . not the kind of thing anti-virus SW can really protect against. Expect lots of new forms of anti-hacking methods and firms to be started, and this should cause buy-outs and partnering that will change our HACK ETF portfolio content?
That is the beauty of HACK ETF . . . its is perfect backup to your single stock picks performances . . . we do not have to be experts in anti-hacking field. There will be huge changes coming in how individuals and companies protect their data . . . for example it seems Win 10 MSFT SW is being built around accepting these coming new antihacking devices and methods.
TRN needs to forget the additional cost of adding new safety standards to its rail designs. A company that does not upgrade its own product designs (with its own R&D initiatives), is not interested in becoming a competitor in the marketplace.
Its bogus company policy to 'cry' about increasing public and customer safety standards, as somehow adverse to business success.
The mission of TRN is to get off its butt and seek out partners from the silicon valley boys and girls, and get them to help fund that R&D and new cost-lower efficiencies? New standards go into effect by 2020-2030 time era . . . will we even have a country by then?
What's with all these 'amateur artist drawings' on tank, etc. cars I see? If our rail yard security is that lacking . . . hello other troubles? It looks to me (as I see that large area art)on the cars s they roll by . . . that it would take over 15 minutes/car to draw it.
Why not provide real money earning ad space, to professional advertisers instead of public use media space by amateurs?
Another 'issue' for RN to deal with is these lawsuits.
Institutional investors were involved in selling short TRN stock price, from its 52 week high. It sure was not the little retail shorter who masterminded the shorting. Why aren't the taxicab office law firms suing these big guys also? Think about it.
Long term horizon 'buy-and-hold' investors better learn to get our of a stock, when the 52 wk. triple tops and starts negative down-channel sliding.
Nothing goes up forever investing philosophy is now very suspect, as your I investment firm is not concerned with protecting your ---, from major losses. 'Stay-the-Course' is now 'Hope-and-change' outcome results?
How strange when USA businesses expect the government to do their work for them. Improve yourself . . . and apply for test run status for your superior tank care designs? Get government openly on your side. Drive looking forward, not in the rear-view mirror. One wonders what they teach as MBA and marketing degrees now days . . . buy back your own stock as 'innovation by accounting'?
What kind of TRN legal department exists, if they are not actively out there in the work area and customer and rail line routes, finding out the problems that can well sink the company?
Ok . . . what is AMD strategy?
Burn its cash chasing INTC and the NVIDIA, in what fields?
Is AMD trying to 'Milk-The-Cash-Pony' until 2017 and the exces
then get golden parachutes? Or, will USA government take the USA-based programmers and fold into new anti-hacker cyber-security unit. Which firms would pay for AMD patent pool . . . at bargain basement prices? If a potential buy-out wants to stop its competition from taking AMD programmers and AMD patents, they can just buy up say 20-30% of AMD stock and demand 2-3 seats on the BODs. Asian company can do this and by-pass USA Anti-Trust laws and paperwork, and just step into our domestic market. Then, form a small USA Asian owned company, and seek out a partnership with the 'New AMD', and place a big component buy order with that new status AMD (after offering new R&D joint development funding with AMD). Doubtful USA government would object, if 'locked-down' new AMD status, involved new production and R&D plants in-country and new legal USA citizen worker hirers.
Will AMD move to Mexico and use Free Trade Status, to cut its costs?
Will AMD customer-users wait around for Nano 12-15 spec chips, from AMD? Can INTC beat out AMD, with their new computer on a stick drive . . . would that device be a game changer for VG users and designers of mobile devices, playing to cloud storage? <---with right SW, the INTC stick computer could take over the small mobile game field, by splitting up the mobile device screen segments into different capacity/speeds play.
I do not have much of a clue what is coming chart-wise.
Do know one thing . . . we should receive more contracts soon (hopefully from DOD) and anyone with any brains that is future oriented . . . can understand EKSO is up for partner or buy-out.
Any rehab center worth its beans . . . should be angling as to how to get a EKSO suit grant written to utilize a EKSO robotic suit, in therapy plan. <---this will be our 'sales force' . . . as insurance provider companies and wealthy families and individuals demand an EKSO suit demo (or purchase) by their care providers and insurance settlements for accidents and trauma victims.
Abe (premier of Japan) is in DC visiting administration and has Japanese stimulus and military funding to spend. EKSO why are you not contacting Japanese Embassy for demo . . . Japan has high-quality tech companies and great desire to help Japanese workers, aged, and its military to possess tactical and strategic advantage.
Looking somewhat that the purpose of the lawsuit, might have some 'connection' to massive shorting? What a 'sweet way' to profit . . . without every having to manufacture anything of physical capital value (to help our country and the world)?
Now . . . we are staring to understand why the USA working class and domestic business, is so poorly served by DC 'financiers'?
Of course, I would have to be totally out-of-line and logic . . . would I not?
I am 'betting' against the 'crowd direction' . . . I would think the potential lawsuit judgment . . . will be done out-of-court.
TRN is vital to USA national defense and global competition: that's my take.
Japan Abe is in DC . . . and Jap n now has official go-ahead to support USA forces wherever necessary globally . . . and Japan has offered its own cash investment, in USA High-speed train project. <---those trains can also carry freight? Who is going to get USA contract, to build? A Texas company . . . maybe?
It might well be interesting, if TRN comes to the conclusion: that it can no longer 'be purposed by present and continuing market supply conditions' . . . to promote and obtain reasonable science . . . and thus to guarantee a reasonable and normal product presentation profitably.
Then, we shall see who will be willed to undertake such.
Surely foreign made crash guard-rails will prove enlightening,
as to specific contract standards.
Why would any normally intelligence management and BODs be inclined to brother, promoting its mission as to fund and stand behind a technology that is so marginal, to its overall corporate goal and image?
Then, let the Feds and the States 'raddle on' amongst themselves, as to how and who will replace the 'suspect' guard-rail needed in the future.
And, of course, we might just find the needy parties having to publicly fund in-house against future guard-rail mishaps (as private insurers could find it 'of a hazard' and negatively skewed to their corporative image being continually involved in the public media, in a negative associative context)?
Further, will the DC crowd sponsors, want Highway Improvement Funding going to pull out reasonably proper guard rails, or rather to patch and re-road their hillbilly roadway mess nationwide developing?
Then, Oh the pain, of claims from driver-less vehicles 'miss-acting'. One might ponder, in all due respect to the legal profession cross-section, can a robot system be a subject of legality? I Robot . . . and all. Sky Net shall surely take issue with an illogical processing outcome?
TRN could quite well find itself, with a very favorable settlement of issue, out-of-court?
Practically, when the vaunted offended parties find no one stepping into their replacement nightmare can-of-worms.
Thanks for info.
I am comfortable with this company, and its products.
As time rolls on . . . more and more video cameras on vehicles and on-board monitoring of vehicle performance parameters (along with more and more video cams installed on roadways) . . . will work against the efforts of taxi-cab office lawyers . . . from bringing lawsuits of this type.
I might wonder if TRN will start to install data collection modules (similar to tiny basic sized and purposed flight recorders), on its guard rails as a means of more precisely determine the cause-and-effect of the accidents, that result in strikes against its guard rails.
This type of continuous equipment monitoring of rolling stock (and the actual rail condition itself), is also growing in use across our nation's rail system. I think our highways and road system, need to follow upon this trend of active monitoring.
I do not see why TRN could not undertake and fund a test of these
guard rail monitoring systems, of itself (with approval by Highway Authorities, of course). Be pro-active and protect your company? Texas A&M . . . where are you?
New investor herein.
Bot in today toward end of day, and down roughly .25/s.
There are many angles to the guard rail lawsuit.
A counter-suit could be mounted, on possible ethics of suing party? Also, if medical evidence is entered into the lawsuit . . . we might find out road-conditions (state-of highway surface and weather and actual medical state of driver and time of day, etc.) . . . could have counter-force to actual wreck hazard tentatively proclaimed of TRN guard-rail.
No guard-rail is going to save someone not driving within their limits or the vehicles. The car manufacturer might have to be called in, and have to show cause why vehicle could not prevent ANY form of damage and injury.
We have yet to understand what type of trial status will be acceptable to all parties concerned.
The very purpose of the lawsuit, may result in TRN offering to drop manufacture of the guard rail part of its business. Guess who will try and then take up that manufacturing contract? Who would want such a lawsuit prone form of business to run, at a profit?
TRN is important strategic part of USA energy independence capital
producers. Would administration want to be known as one that seeks to punish those who provide capital jobs, when America is challenged by Middle Eastern and internationalists efforts to destroy our country?
Rail tank cars can be used for creating 'energy storage parks', around our country in specially created rail yards, that store oil and gas. These can be placed reasonably near present USA in-country military bases, and have base personnel guard them. Also, railcars of specific design could be used as low-level radioactive storage containers: and trained into mountain-side 'storage-mines' (and than sealed off, with internal remote instrumentation monitoring). A robot train could even move spent but still highly dangerous nuclear reactor rods, into such
mountain-side storage status.
There is no way to create a 100% perfect guard-rail design, that can stop every driver and vehicle, from damage accidents.
It might even turn out TRN gets a new contract to manufacture, an improved guard-rail design, created by Texas A&M engineering staff? The Fat Lady hasn't sung yet, or even got her gear on.
MSFT Windows 10 will include "Device Guard", "Windows Hello", and
"MSFT Pass Port" AV SW. These upgraded AVs include use of INTC
newly developed Video Cam Facial Recognition, Fingerprint surfing verification and can also utilize other companies (presently unknown) bio-metric cam data. This will be in form of Cloud Personal Info Storage.
This may mean both above mentioned companies will be predominant in AV SW business . . . and become listed under HACK ETF Fund holdings? Looking like this may affect HACK, as time goes on.
I believe, its INTC that had bot up McAfee AV SW company.
Have yet to see if this news has effect on HACK stock price, as one has to find out how the new AV SW will be accepted by public.
One definite problem might be that a number of SW home-type users, would have no immediate need to upgrade to this kind of AV SW protection? WE just have to sit back and see how things transpire, for Windows 10 acceptance.
APPL and AMZN (? correct symbol) . . . might also come along for the ride in this new AV SW standard ( and Goggle), and all will also be listed as HACK ETF holding. What all this might mean to HACK future stock price . . . is up for grabs.
NOTE: I do envision a mere 2-D photograph will not be able to trick this new MSFT AV SW . . . it will use 3-D math projection type SW reader.
We just got two more stories of cyber-security threatens, waiting to happen: in-flight airline aircraft electronics hack able and using video cam and software to 'read' typing pattern of mobile texting to acquire account pass words.
Also, may be possible for heat sensors to read fingerprints on community touch objects, and there goes the hope of using laptop, etc. fingerprint scanning to beat data identity collectors.
Third story involves government intel agency being newly created, using national guard and hiring professional hackers, to create stronger protection for USA power grid system.
Got some HACK?
Its kind of recession-proof investment.
My investment goal is HACK stock price 2-4X^ in next 2-4 years.
When the military and government types have to be retained, to protect private energy grid by active monitoring it . . . another 9-11 situation is possible, though much more dangerous.
SIDENOTE: With inflation rolling and USA business funding going to China (GM) and Mexico(F). . . household and business solar cells . . . may be only real answer to upgrade our energy grid (while giving individual minimum safety requirement and USA jobs and tax growth and a higher level of energy independence). We each are going to having to make it happen . . . as our leadership forces are 'other directed'. We thus are 'voting' and solving our personal and national problems via free market and our purchase of Made-In-the-USA products? And, at the same time; buying a economic utility asset, and boosting our community safety. SELF-RELIANCE, COMMON SENSE, AND STATES RIGHTS <---VOTE SOLUTIONS WITH your OWN $$s where it counts?
Great stuff folks!
T-Gen looks very nice . . . we may see that $250Mil 2015 revenues base pushing into much higher $$s area.
EA and MSFT must be envious.
GLUU needs to meet with next 10 or so USA states actively considering going into online paid gaming and gambling play. <---start showing them what kind of content we can provide, to increase their tax base. Indirectly, states will also be able to delta tax take, from VG user purchase of products advertised inside game. 'Repeat Electronic Implant Stimulation' is one of the most effectively sales tools ever invented, and tied to favorite user character play role modeling . . . gets results.
Bit-coining forward! . . . into the electronic dust!
We just need to learn to pay everyone to play . . . ever time they tap . . . they get points towards prizes, discounts, and cash back points (like when a person buys with their credit card and gets cash back bonuses). The numb skulls that run the bricks-and-mortar casinos are holding back the new era of virtual casinos experiences: their user base is dying off and a whole new venue of mobile clicks-for-bucks is waiting for the switch to be flipped (or tapped as it were).
GLUU shows the states the Future . . . and they will force it to happen . . . has to. Everyone will be happy in electro-snow Land.
Which VG company will 'get-it-on' . . . my bet is on GLUU and ZNGA.
More likely scenario: 'we reduced staff by 100-450, two new games out by July-August timeframe after shown at E3 in June, we present
positive earnings of .01-.03, we settled out-of-court the pending lawsuit, have contacted for 2-4 Indie-developed games to be enhanced under our label . . . and on a more nebulous note . . . we are considering a new form of VG format that will be built around outstanding subjects like DC-Zombie Attack as a fun game based on 2016 elections?'
Some of the above might propel ZNGA to $3+ in a short-squeeze?
It was fun, fun, fun . . . till daddy took the company away.
I just bot small amount of ZNGA for first time.
I doubt ZNGA is say going private, or delisting.
Lawsuit will be in favorite of ZNGA owners, that's my bet.
During E3 show, I am thinking ZNGA gets at least one :VR 3-D game out. W10 brings Virtual Reality 3-D a lot closer to positive 2015 launch?
All major players (including high-speed traders) made good $$s as stock price went down. In next few months, these folks will run up ZNGA stock price.
The breakup value of this company, is huge (with experienced software developers and recent purchase of innovative tech SW company).
I am hardly worried for ZNGA stock value . . . expect +$1 or more increase by coming holidays end of 2015, or say April 2015.
One or more of its new VG this year out will be in top 20 listing? And, looking for new partner news in a few months.
ZNGA needs to expand its online gambling SW, into paid-out play format.
ZNGA might just make buyout in the online gaming venue, soon?
Thanks . . . the board appreciates your insight, as do I.
Was Tap Sports Baseball 2015, a big upgrade for the 2014 VG format . . . or rather just new players were added?
If only Car Town Rivals could get some 'over-spray' frosting effect from Fast and Furious 7 on its revenues.
Yeah . . . my Arnold Terminator Genesis numbers are probably too high to wish for. Sci-Fi game content does seems to have a 180 degree opposite fun path of interest to current VG fans desires? Maybe Sarah Connors character will bring in lady players . . . makeup cues from Kim? A Lady Terminator . . . to weapon up . . . Barbie et al.
Yes, that would be a $$ triangle merger!
On the other side of the coin of scenarios . . . we just might see some offers for one or more of the 'triangle merger' companies . . . after upcoming earnings are in? My premise herein is based on firms like MSFT and EA, etc. casting a wary eye on these growing 3 VG companies; as vey potent near future competitors. For example, remember that famous Finish Cellphone Company . . . that hired a MSFT Executive, and then got taken over by MSFT?
Or, buy some shares of one of the 3 VG companies, and gain a seat or two on its BOD suite? That would prevent anyone else from taking over one of the 3 VG companies.
Also, note that INTC has soon to be release mini computer built into zip drive. What VG 'tech waves' will that bring to mobile gaming venue?
The Cloud Computing (being forced on the public player by MSFT especially), takes away our ability to own the actual physical game. While, at the same time, stepping up game graphics to new levels of play (e.g. VR) and tilting players into 'buy-mode' pyscho-pressure to purchase 'extras' for the game play. <---this is rather alike putting addict chemicals into cigs, for smokers? And who will want to hold the gate keys to the Cloud super-computer derived graphic 'candy'? Doubtful that GLUU will have the spare cash, to control its future destiny as a growing VG company, dependent on Clouding for game performance features.
Just some random thoughts to consider as further reasons for what to expect for fundamental 'drivers', possible in the mix to affect all VG companies stock price futures. Ah . . . the paint dry's so slow . . . until the 'news' lighting strikes it?
The GLUU stock price keeps creeping up a few cent-os/day . . . so what of the current short interest . . . who is it that will be stomped into poverty by the coming earnings news effect on the stock price? Retail investors have to flip a coin, to see darkly their future status around time's coming corner.
Thanks for your thoughts on VR and GLUU.
I also agree that GLUU is headed for 52 Week high within months.
I just was wondering if anyone had heard of any GLUU 3-D games up-coming, keyed to the new VR headset technology use.
The daily volume of late, is not giving us much of a clue of what coming earnings hold for us. The only immediate negative I can come up with, is if R&D expenses (for 2015 games), are to be highly registering in coming earnings report timeframe.
Like you, I also do not foresee GLUU developing their own VR headsets. Just imagine players being able to VR walk around a KKH party or hear surround sound noises in a combat game or hunting game.
It is somewhat surprising both Arnold and James Bond Film company chose GLUU to make its associative movie mobile VG. EA and the others must be somewhat taken aback? I think KKH success (as a new form of VG genre), made them take notice of GLUU.
I am thinking Terminator Genesis should pull in up to $750 Mil worldwide sales. A lot of fans of Arnold The T out there. GLUU VG could get a nice ride on that.
NEW TOPIC: Virtual Reality & GLUU?
Stopped into major cellphone store . . . and inquired if any :VR headsets had showed up? Young Salesmen told me Samsung rep had brought in demo goggle display to show to them, it was like a set of large warp-around goggles. He wore eyeglasses and stated the game environment kind of gave him some vertigo symptoms, at first.
VR games and headsets are generally due out coming holidays.
Anyone have any indication GLUU will have some out? Initial sales market estimates for :VR is around $2 Bil by 2018 . . . depending on customer acceptance of it.
I do not have any feel for what cost of such games would be . . . and if they might have start-up play time of free play offered?
Is this something to be big new potential market for GLUU?
It sounds very neat . . . to be able to be so immersed in the game play situation environment. Is this something (the playing of) will be restricted to large memory machines like X_Boxes, etc?
Or, is a low-memory version possible for cellphone and tablets?
My thinking is the mobile device player might have blue tooth 3-D eyeglasses and use stripped down game code environment?
:VR could open up many potential revenue paths for GLUU . . . from home schooling motivational gaming, to learning to repair and install products.
BOARD PROJECTIONS OF GLUU STOCK PRICE 2015?
DUE TO:
Tap Baseball = 15-25 Mil $s profit, after development costs
New T-Movie = 40-125 Mil $s, "
New Rock Star Music Game = $40-165 Mil $s, "
Other games for 2015 = 40-100 Mil $s, "
This is rough positive revenue stream projected in 2015 for GLUU, total for 2015 calendar year = 95 - 250 $s clear profit revenues.
Just a blue sky personal projection, how much do other board
members project for 2015?
I am assuming GLUU revenues will be immune from any general market fall and geo-political crises (entertainment takes your mind off 'economic problems'). Worse case scenario . . . folks stay mostly to home base and play games for entertainment.
I still think the Silicon Valley fella has it right on . . . issue Federal Game Play Stamps earnings, to texters and anyone that uses a cellphone, tablet, laptop, etc. Congress and Administration and Multi-Nationals should be all for this . . . as they make $$s now off our data . . . why not pay everyone for their clicks and create mobile 'jobs' ( while we bring on the Singularity Meets The Matrix)? Do you see anyone in DC working to create real Job Growth? The young and the aged would then be clicking or bucks? Imagine how the school budgets would go!
'I Clicked This!'
Also, if we get another deep cold/snow winter season, my 2015
revs projection holds. JMO
Based on above, I would guessimate GLUU stock price to flow up to $7 by July and possibly reach +$10 during 2015-2016 Holiday season time frame.
Anyone care to comment, and do you have a counter-revenues 2015 projection or guess?
If my rough projections above are in the ballpark, stock volume buying should be increasing very soon. <----looks already (Friday
3.27.15), to be channeling upward. As our stock price is now very near $5/share, shorts should be nervous?
Low outstanding shares at this time out, and what is short interest now . . . watch charting candles for an indication via candle charting color of who is winning . . . sells or buys.
The 'Kick' may be coming earnings . . . as development costs will be factoring into its results? Tthat could throw off analysts
figures.
Wonder if Arnold The-T took some stock in his GLUU game deal?
What a way to leverage legally.
Too bad GLUU did not plan for an interactive toy bluetoothing to a Terminator figure? You could cellphone tap your interactive game figure into the action.
From board . . . thanks for your special ability to find things of interest to GLUU investors.
Note that one can buy extra items, etc. for cash . . . now think a little outside the GLUU box and just imagine how GLUU would be positioned (with online purchases) for online money sports gambling presence (when USA States opt for more tax sources . . . coming for sure). If states want POT taxes, it would not be mucho more for them to get their heads around online paid gambling on sports and games on such?
Lots of larger companies looking around to buy established and profitable ways, to get the low-cost customer online to buy extras. Buy-out potential is just another easy plus to add to your reasons to own (and trade) GLUU?
And, large casinos are going to want a partner that knows how to rock. <---one guess only . . . which is cheaper base for future profits in a recessive world economy . . . online paid play or
physical standing gambling machines in a building centric cost structure?
Who else had to do an ' elevated altitude study', e.g. all the blood test meter companies? I am assuming the test is for vacations to mountain resort and air liner flight situations of blood device uses?
China folk (in 2007) who developed the 'Urine Battery' for powering a cellphone for say 30 minutes (with peep or salt water) . . . mentioned at the time . . . that 'other bodily fluids' could also power a cell phone or LED . . . spit and blood to name two. EMF of their battery design depended on battery plate size and battery circuit: parallel or series. Did DRIO blood mobile meter developers kind of piggy-backed on the Chinese
idea of creating a mobile 3rd-world blood monitoring health care tool? Diagnosis blood monitoring mini-chips, have been around since the 1980s.
Combine the two ideas, and what do you have? Plus add some SW and include a doggle porting to a cell phone.
Any news from Paris show?
Daily volume is terrible . . . maybe time to hire a stock promo show? Wondering if free test kits to Congress and Senate, could get some FDA phone calls? I mean Bibi got free USA taxpayer paid election coverage . . . right?
One could say DRIO is 'basing' . . . but for resistance or support?
So . . . who now owning most of DRIO stock shares . . . Retail investors or 'the insiders' + the private placement loan holder?
Just me . . . but I do believe its the private placement loan holder. Worse case, do a Donald Trump Tax Maneuver and pay yourself a big salary/commission in the proceeding court doc?
We retail investors (in my observation), have been fore-right 'used' like someone who walks up on the common street, and asks for a cash loan?
After the 'Non-brokered Private Placement' . . . the DRIO stock price just when up and up, right? Not!
DRIO is way too cagey about FDA, sales progress, revenues, 'other bodily fluids' R&D efforts, and 'Whose On First?!' . . . to minic the 1950s TV show joke routine.
The stock performance pattern here . . . seems to follow a typical .PK process.
I was told to 'relax' and get ready to enjoy the very soon coming FDA Approval effect on the DRIO stock price.
Soon March, 2015 and 'no news update.
The owner/lender of the Private Placements is sitting nice outside USA reach . . . and now controls the action, to their advantage? When a company can't capitalize on its product, what happens to the retail investor? Have a nice day!
Its extremely odd . . . that Canada and other countries can jump right in on Official Right to publicly sell the DRIO product . . . and USA FDA can't decide?
Well . . . next Earnings Call or whatever they will call it . . . one can almost 'sure thing' bet that DRIO will not even discuss any USA device reader users 'results'. Will the 'news' get pushed off again into the misty of the future . . . kick the can down the road. All kinds of fan comments and face books . . . but where are the by country sales figures?
OK . . . I will chill and await the pending PR next month . . . that will put us all on 'The Yellow Brick Road'!
Thanks . . . looking forward to March 4.
That is about where I bot in a little.
What are you seeing as VJET 3-D printing future?
Are they going to continue in the entertainment industry set proto-typing, and will they be moving beyond powder additive
3-D tech?
I do not presently foresee stock price to fall below $7 area, unless we have major market crash, etc. type of stuff.
Any business venture worth its nuts, is going to be brainstorming how to utilize 3-D tech: to cut its labor-intensive costs, move out of Asian-sourcing of production and save overseas shipping time/cost + geopolitical considerations, and innovate formulation of its products future market reach.
That would be great if VJET goes up on 'good earnings'.
Maybe see $1-3 up?
What is board (and your take, if you would) on HPQ as a competitor?
HP . . . w/o looking . . . I assume HP is going for 3-D printers for average consumer/home use as possible way to 'push up' their lagging home ink-jet printer sales.
Do not foresee BIG 3-D home business/craft activity right now (will average person want to get techie and make things)?
Maybe.
I hope HP does not think its going to 'bust' into the dawning large scale 3-D format, and compete against us?
HP is trying to elbow into Cloud and also business SW service appls?
Good Luck with that.
I just do not think HP has mmgt. keyed to industrial line products. Am I wrong therein?
Should we even worry about HP stepping in on us?
Are we setting up for Shorts getting flipped and stock price runs up, to force them to cover?
Are we over sold condition?
Volume is dropping off.
My take . . . 3-D printing is just getting into $$s of metallic scaling of production runs, for business uses. With 3-D, it makes no sense to use China for manufacturing (due to shipping time to Americas and EU.
Would HPQ with their $*30 Billions be interested in taking over VJET?
