We now seem to have support in .28 - .32 cent area?
No one really knows much about this stock.
DRIO should wait, for a few more weeks of user data and do something bold like go on Dr. Oz show, with demo and invite diabetics to use their device on camera live? This is asysmetrical (sp) way to get attention from diabetic associations.
Also, Canada news and Netherlands intros is great news.
That Canada sees the potential in DRIO mobile trader device is showing USA FDA how its done. Both countries health systems and economies are near top of food chain, economically and socially. How is second or third world-ism coming along, America?
Wonder why congress has not noted, health care advantage of DRIO device? Almost bet their are diabetics in its ranks? Of course, lawyers rarely can get around innovative tech . . . their training and mind set does not go there. That and lobbyist freebies are part of USA decay problem?
DRIO: do presentation to Canadian Armed Forces, and offer some free devices to them to test? Naturally, you would invite near-by USA state National Guard Units and HLS, etc. up to the presentation. Letters and comments on letter head of USA state health officials, posted to FDA gives more authorative approval coments to FDA packet.
Now, USA diabetics can 'visit' Canadian doctors and pharma shops and 'try out' the DRIO devices? Is it hands (or fingers), across the border? Go together with USA cruise ship company and intro. DRIO devices, on the 'cruise' to Canada.
Bot more as price dropped.
More comfortable with DRIO, as company and product now.
Could be effect therein from general market effects on GLUU . . . however note that GLUU might well show earnings 5-10 Mil $s over initial recommendations by various estimates for quarter. That's bank for a small guy like GLUU.
GLUU is the new economy ( mobile electronic entertainment) paradigm, in our dawning third world USA consumer service profits society. Its profitable and folks like BAC are suffering (except for their stock, etc. trading). Ebola and ME war clouds are not helping folks want to travel physically, too far from home base. Basically, we are living life through our mobile media and com thrills, in our food stamp dystopia.
Talking heads of Media are frosting the burnt cake.
They are so scared in halls of DC that they got the oil barons to keep low petro and heating costs, to put some extra spending monies in consumer pockets for holiday season.
GLUU is a stand-out performer in present transitioning society and economy (at least that is my take). $5-7 range possible before earnings, or just after as we get noticed? And, GLUU may drop again below present price, next week . . . we shall see.
Thanks for the nice colored charts, cool.
Are you thinking the younger folk would be the better audience to target, for radical tech devices like DRIO mobile reader?
I know a long time diabetic and that person has told me he will stick with his present
blood read out device. He does not have a cellphone or personal computer. He is educated in the health field professionally. Though, he closely considers his medical care provider recommendations.
Reason I mentioned FDA, instead of CDC, was a thought that everyone is pooling resources and equipment and experience to contain Ebola. Note the militaries of world. are now stepping forward to assist.
It would be kind of hopeful to get some in Israel references, to whether DRIO device is in trials there. Underwriting a governmental grant for testing DRIO reader in that country, would be big posltive for us retail investors. maybe my thoughts are jumping ahead too much.
That was great, thanks.
Is DRIO restricted from presenting stuff like this, or do they expect we can find it on our own? I hope the board greatly appreciates your response, know I do.
I stand corrected, in that matter.
Sure hoping TA can give us a 'heads-up' when a PR is coming.
I guess it will have to . . . as company can't seem to grasp hold of the concept (PR).
Lets see if DRIO can get into device production, with roughly $5-7 million, financing
on-board now. That amount of money should be gone in about 2-4 quarters, depending on whether DRIO does in-house production or contracts out, or decides to go with slow roll-out of a few hundred or thousand readers into present and some new marketing areas . . . and waits for customer and medical care profession feed-back . . . , to make sure the full production model qualifies to USA FDA standards?
As other poster has implied . . . it might be best to go the South Americas reader device qualification and intro marketing route . . . to get sales, user data, and production level sorted out. This could be the PR 'effect' we shall have within coming few months?
At this time, its looking iffy for soon USA Approval . . . the Ebola thing has them in a defensive realignment mode of their resources . . . as staffing looks to monitor new Ebola Experimental Drugs and treatments. I am just saying a lot of other pending Approvals . . . may find thing 'slow' for them.
What is absolutely wonderful is DRIO still has not give retail investors any definitive answer why they needed a R/Split. The board 'believes; its to up-list. Why up-list BEFORE USA FDA Approval . . . why, of course, to be ready to 'fly' to the moon.
Hedge Funds( and their bubby like BlackRock) are just waiting in the wings, to jump on board.
Note we investors did not see DRIO management step in and attack those who (maybe) shorted the stock. Real quiet these folks.
Everyone made money but us retail investors?
We all set-up to rise in stock price next week . . maybe a fluff Pr without drama can carry us up . . . sure and that + .25 gets you a small sip of coffee, to taste test.
We can't have ANY info on our launch market results?
We must just ask, what is the company doing . . . on extended religious holiday?
Found site in Israel called NOCAMELS.COM (follows their country tech news).
No mention of DRIO apparent. However; was an article (brief) on device that tests insulin level by breathe mobile read-out, and uses single-use capasule, in place of test strips and blood prick. if I remember right . . . its wireless to your phone.
To my way of viewing it (after I lost money in the R/Split), DRIO has a credibility
problem with us retail investors like me that want to believe in company tech. Only evidence I have seen to date, is stock price dropping after R/S (a typical pinkie level stock effect), and suspicious evidence (in way stock price moved down), of shorting . . . gee-pers . . wonder who that could be? Anyone able as retail to short DRIO . . . silence.
Sure hoping DRIO is not expecting to be able to 'finance' itself . . . with private placements shorting against retail.
I have no idea of anything that could be used as 'rocket fuel' for DRIO, unless they drop us some hints: Translation . . . PR? Or, are we going to be propelled by a penny stock site promo? That would be 'telling'. . . kind of like approving a tiny R/S for operating expenses, when one knows the company will need millions of $$, to get device production up.
Are we just left to watch the dust settle on the drying pain . . . in the desert sun?
I tried to buy some more again yesterday, but they went right through my order limit
price without results.
I am slowly averaging down in stock price, and just enough to cover for a coming PR
potential.
FDA staff is sidetracked with Ebola s--t-storm right now, and focusing its resources in-house therein.
Diabetes (just USA) is far more deadly disease for our people in death and disability costs, than Ebola (at this time). Diabetic care and meds is huge cost factor in SS funding, within the budget. A significant number of late stage diabetic patients and their care plan, could use the convenience and timelyness of DRIO mobile reader device.
The pain and suffering they experience, in the final stages of this disease and its effects on them and their families, merits a rapid approval test trial for DRIO device.
The FDA is waiting for sufficient universe of test trial/consumer use data of DRIO device, to 'underpin' their approval of it. In my opinion, this is a minor personal medical care contact system (the DRIO reader), and FDA should jump at the chance to lower medical care plan costs. Perhaps DRIO should do presentations to large Medical Care Plan Providers and ARRP, etc. and get them walking the halls of congress . . . to get this done.
There is some possibility DRIO could also develop a bodily fluid mobile health reader device for TB, AIDS, HEP, AND Ebola. Blood and bodily fluid reading bio-chips + various other mini-electronic spectral components is the tech path herein. Why no FDA awareness of this (and Medicare and DOD) and rapid approval of trial/R&D $$grants is beyond me.
There is plenty of $$s available to blow the double H out of everyone's country . . . but none for the War on vicious disease?!!
Well I am back in HL (only stock worth buying right now in these economic conditions).
Its a no-brainer at these price levels . . . with new silver CDA area mine and Canada and central Americas mines . . . stock price = productive assests + metals in the ground and in storage. Beats PM ETF hands down, in immediate value.
Every bomb, cellphone, solar cell, car, computer (both silver battery and circuit PMs). You can even forget the nose-ring sales use in your calculations. And, we got silver and gold as antibiotic medical uses thrown in. The future of medical care will involve increasing uses of PMs, as well as mobile reader health devices for paients communications with their docotors. PMs do combat Ebola, etc., by bio-genetic inserting their particles into the enemy DNA clustering: hack the bad boys gene USB, so to speak.
Anyone think HL just built a new silver mine to close down?
And, HL gets other auxiliary commodity minerals, as a side-business.
The USA government hardly is stupid enough to enter a 100 yr. war in ME and Africa . . . without its own special in-house PMs stockpile, with armed forces based all around it?
The only 'investment' money right now in physical assets is just churning the stock market. Real estate is stuck, as kids and declining MC unable (or unwilling) to invest in owning a house, as a financial investment. Young are not buying cars either: no jobs economy. Our infrastructure is falling apart faster than we can replace it. Solar cells make sense (especially leasing them), as its cheaper, more decentralized method of updating the grid. And, has any one seen power and energy prices dropping annually?
The FED keeps trying to create inflation, but it only gets deflation along with it.
They keep trying to create inflationary prices . . .; but frighten and job-less, are not or cannot buy the higher priced goods and just do without or put a patch on their jeans. Welcome to the new 1930's, wherein the rich have all the money and truly believe they can just sit on it and trade it back and forth with their friends.
PMs (especially historical quality coins), are way better physical utility value of currency than paper back by debt (note number of countries recently flipped their BK trip). You can always take PMs to a recycler. But how do you recycle paper for value in depreciating currency situation?
Thanking for the reply, Abbott is the big guns herein, they can make it work AND get the PR exposure. DRIO (I am almost tempted to cal it Drip-o) could easily become an also ran, unless more private or governmental grant Israeli money steps in to back it in USA, etc. The source country military and emergency plus health services, should be more than eager to fund further R&D and user studies, of this bodily fluid mobile remote reader tech. Were I a medical device manufacturer . . . I would already be firmly involved in approaching DRIO for part of the action, with a suitcase of cash.
I am buying more DRIO, to cover my loses as it stock price goes down.
That's easy for me, as I have only small amount of shares.
Everyone has a firm chair at the profits table (including all the shorts), and the true believers (long term investors) are left standing . . . while others pick-their-wallet. Is this real Free Enterprise trying to create a better method of health care . . . or Greed Machine Capitalism Casino owners triumph?
DRIO is in danger of leaving a bitter taste in retail investors aspirations for their company and product. That is why I think DRIO performance shows itself as . . . lacking.
To my way of thinking, retail long term horizon folk, can now just watch and buy some more as the forces that be, drop the stock price. Bluntly speaking, a company that screws its shareholders in pinkie land repeatedly . . . sets itself up for a fall.
And . . . I do not think I am the only investor here that finds no like in what is transpiring for those that brought to support the product and company. I see this type of product as revolutionary to mobile remote health care and mass sampling . . . and that is why I am still here (dispite my full spectrum of comments).
Mademan thanks for the info on the new Abbott Labs.
My perspective: Huge Company and can get FDA super attention fast.
See how smart they are at PR working with diabetic groups.
As far as whether the Abbott device is blue tooth or wireless reading . . . not a big deal to include an optional mini-USB port on the instrument for private data transfer.
IF this arm sensor can read other bodily fluids remotely in the body blood system . . . Houston . . . We has Competition! Product.
Guess who has the most $$s to throw at remote mobile blood reading devices?
You are allowed only one guess. Add in political donation deep pockets and skill. .
Who you gonna love as first cousin, FDA?
That does not mean DRIO can't get USA FDA Approval timely, and obtain an acceptable USA market share of diabetic remote device readers.
Abbott can easily get best in class design enhancement folk to 'improve' their device (smaller, high-low alarm reader device inclusion, and SW upgrading). And who can cut reading costs to the bone, to off-competitors? Da!
Abbott might even buy-out DRIO rights to their device in USA or wherever.
They can also partner with DRIO and throw a ton of cash on the company insiders and provide massive R&D assistance and marketing.
Both Abbott and DRIO devices look promising and were I Abbott . . . why not have a finger in both tech pots? What we do notk now at this time . . . is Abbott reader device compatible with other bodily and chemical fluids? I kind of suspect it is . . . . as one probably just has to change the chemical sensor type targeting specific material and the SW, to read other fluids.
Remote mobile user medical device readers is future TODAY!
This just might mean other Medical Device Manufacturers will beat a path over to our DRIO (to side-swip Abbott)? Ah . . . the times they is interesting.
That was a typo "gays", should have been gals, in my last post.
Y board today mentioned an attack piece on GLUU, and referenced the article.
My take . . . just an attempt to draw down the share price (and the general market drop effect is acting in same direction), looking like a buying opportunity.
KK is in late stages of her career . . . no doubt about that . . . but still she is popular with her followers and young ladies. KK is very bright lady and has unique marketing skills (and has wealth to help promote her later stage career path). She is hero of significant size of age groups 12-55 age female). Nothing wrong with that. Hollywood likes to keep moving into new exploitation talent areas all the time. <---meaning new actors constantly being promoted. KK can act on that and even start her own actress/actor promotion venue platform, with GLUU. What I like about KKH is its potential to form a new game gura-draw (sp) for GLUU. Look . . . as I mentioned before KKH has brought in way more revenues to GLUU then they spent creating it and also has payed for their latest acquisition (which will be profitably by itself). GLUU is not 'going away' on the mobile gaming market. WE are very capable game company and everyone in industry is noting this. We are still in play for partnering and buy-out potential.
OK.
No fundamental analysis.
We will have to wait for a couple of weeks, to get some TA path.
Thanks for reply.
I never come out ahead on R/Splits, and you are right . . . we will just have to sit and wait for potential of FDA Approval PR.
DRIO now has to have a burn rate of roughly $1,00,000/month . . . if they are ramping up production? I am considering new R&D costs for future bodily fluids testing versions, also in the above burn rte estimate. You cannot employ over 12 employees,
rent, ship, and monitor foreign customer data in studies, advertise, and pay business taxes and materials and energy usage bills . . . much less than my monthly figure above.
My monthly burn rate guessimate can be all wet (or can it)?
Its got to cost at least $20 (and probably at this stage of testing device manufacture, over $60/device from an outside contractor. Asian sourcing is more and more becoming the way to go? Right now, doubtful DRIO has device manufacturing costs under $20 (materials fabrication and then hand assembly and testing).
What is your monthly burn rate calculation for DRIO business expenses? Anyone?
It is encouraging to think someone with business venture financing skills, put $4 Mil into DRIO. I do not think, as do you, that he is throwing his $$s away.
Next two quarters will tell the story on DRIO.
If they cannot get FDA USA Approval by March, 2015 . . . with all the foreign test subject data . . . DRIO is dreamscape vapour ware stock.
I sure do not want it to be . . . this medical innovation needs to happen, to benefit society and diabetics. Now we all get to sit and watch paint dry.
So far, DRIO are PR amateurs.
Any company that drops its retail investors into the dirt, is functionally inept.
Where are the governmental product support grants?
I do not know about the rest of you, but I am down roughly 50% in DRIO stock value (multiplying my new share amount by .45 BID). That does not sound like a big advantage for retail to me. Stock would have to fly to $1.00/share BID with new 5:1 R/Split to get me back to what my old price was next week. We retail have no guarantee DRIOD or whatever stock price symbol, will not cave below .45 BID (no one gets to sell @.65 ASK or buy price). Lets see which way the DRIO stock price 'flys'.
Why buy @.65 or in-between .45 and .65 with Limit Order price . . . .
W/O positive PR from DRIO . . . this has no place to go but down in price.
Only novice investors will buy now @.65 Ask price.
Look at the stock volume.
Great work MM and DRIO inside investors.
This will be interesting for GLUU.
It looks primarily a children's game (maybe with parent). It could prove fun for real waitresses?
I do not see it as a KKH type of share price effect for GLUU.
GLUU is smart to fill in its game inventory with this style of game, as it should draw younger gamers into looking at other GLUU games.
GLUU needs to draw the gays into their gaming experience.
If I remember correctly, females play more and buy more upgrades within the game.
Lets see if GLUU will be advertising stuff for gals, from various companies as in-game ads. Like in movies where actors talk about a particular product or use it with quick logo shot as the plot progresses.
With luck . . . GLUU stock should bounce .15-.35, due to Diner Dash active play into. effect?
It might be appropriate for DRIO to expand their measure tech device readout parameters, to also test kit fluid consumer goods, drinking water sampling, and pet care medical fluid use testing.
Such auxiliary (to human sample testing market uses), can rather speedly bring in positive sales revenues to DRIO, as the Federal use standards having to be passed to be an effective and useful public and private use product are basically simpler.
And, a design patent can be used to initiate sales to comerical uses. At the same time, a full patent pending application message could be placed on such use packages.
I do not see how (with current low stock float in stock market), a R/Split matters much to the current level of stock price. In just my opinion, it seems doubtful the stock price could be much lower without harming the company image (.10 area). When the stock gets real positive news Pr(s), we is gonna fly bye bye ^.
I suspect some here do not like any discussion of DRIO product potential, but in a fundamental sense, news does drive the charting (the charters just hope that the chart can display that approaching event firstly). Its possible. Volume and price foretell stock direction potential.
Thanks for displaying the patent info, for potential new investors and tech geek-ies.
There is no new 'news' right now . . . that may well be a time to buy a little DRIO?
I am beginning to wonder if DRIO has a professional PR firm involved.
Lets have some PRs! I repeat . . . lets give away FREE and Publicly . . . some DRIO devices, for beta testing by concerned user organizations. At least advertise in the AARP magazine . . . via an article about DRIO and its new mobile testing tech.
Include some user comments and get some comments from medical professionals also.
Another problem for us retail investors . . . might be that DRIO is swamped with potential consumer demand . . . and cannot get production geared up quickly. And, they do not want to let on about this. DRIO should not hope to keep the production process in-house . . . find some decent and reliable outside production sourcing.
Hello everyone, not in HL now . . . watching from sidelines.
That's a great idea 'issue bond convertible to silver to reduce debt'.
And . . . might I add . . . and put the interest payments to choice option of silver coin minted privately by HL, in some ratio of X shares to an optional coin? Why not advertise yourself (HL) and upset the new Chinese PM exchange? While, quietly also advertising USA freedom and democracy, as opposed to what is happening to citizen free rights in a certain Asian Sea Port?
Here is an angle on Russian NG revenues from Ukraine and EU.
Take note NG and petro prices are dropping, while off-coast USA storage tanker capacity is very high. EU fuel supply gets crimped . . . I suspect some of that excessive off-shore tanker capacity can 'glide' over to EU? Ahh . . it must be fun to have 'commodity money' stored off the USA coast guarded by our drones, etc.
And Germany, can tell USA to forget return of its gold (mortage it and pay us interest . . . or you ship over NG and petro . . . and we get it at discount)?
And, I do not see how Russian people can not see they are on losing side of EU consumer imports cut-off, with substitute $1 store stuff. We might conclude that Russia oil and NG will not be going to China in a relationship that maintains Russia needs for energy exports revenues, above $100/barrel; needed to fiance their North Pole raw materials exploitation and concurrently their military build-up plans.
Would Russia, then, be forced to sell PMs into a declining PMs market?
Could such a possible scenario affect HL stock price?
Another acquisition . . . here, here!
Why not buy a silver battery company, use HL silver, and then own it for recycling?
Basically, that would combine some of your silver bond idea, a new acquisition,
AND keep Americas silver in our hands along with maintaining HL production and jobs.
Oh damn . . . I didn't go to Harvard . . . my version of the NWO logic must be faulty.
I had to laugh when someone on another board . . . noted an artl. reference that congress works less then 40 hours per week, but gets paid for . . . you know.
That includes both parties.
Congress, of course, shot that down (as most are lawyers), implying there is no written contract wordage WE have to work at our desks for 40 hours. I guess they like to study 'briefs' down at the beach, as the gals jog bye?
If USA $ goes up in value . . . what are we doing . . . setting up for another Great Recession in USA as our goods and service exports fall off . . . ala Japan 1970s car and electronic sales into USA markets, at a distinct price advantage? We were even dumb enough to sell them processed Al (made from pop and beer cans) and they didn't have to stage one cost process it, by mining raw materials.
How would that work out . . . T-Bill to rising $ bond-wise . . . as foreigners holding such recycle them back to us?
Now . . . ScottAM you are not suppose to ask questions like that. :)
It is possible that the firm DRIO wants to be in Naz status as a stock, to look good as a positive for FDA approval.
We investors only know for sure that DRIO has spoken of R/Split situation after say OCT 15 or 22 or . . ., could happen. Meaning they will 'pull it' when they want to. We retail investors are left somewhat confused (has it ever been any different) <--last to know?
What to do then? Buy in somewhat now . . . or wait?
The PR Sniper posted, tells me (reading between the lines, of course) . . . that DRIO device is doing OK in its initial product areas launches. <---my opinion herein is about as helpful as a 5th wheel on a car?
To my way of thinking . . . DRIO needs right now . . . to launch presentation to diabetic organizations and use that as a PR into awakening USA diabetics and professional care providers, to DRIO need for active concerned user community support for FDA Approval. Face Booking is indirect way to accomplish a build up to this? Then, lets see someone post a video using the DRIO Device and comments . . . the internet is free space for users content . . . right?
Also, many of us would like some info on who is supplied the electronic guts (diagnoistic blood chip) for the DRIO device, and when DRIO assembly of their device goes automated. Oh . . . I forgot . . . that's internal 'black stuff'. We do not even know to what extent DRIO has currently gone beyond basic hand-assembly of device. Are they going to contract automation production out and when can it 'ramp'? Unknown areas we retail have as blanks in our guessimations, that effect our buy judgments. We are in coin flip land right now. Ouch!
Its somewhat suspect to me (beyond the correct dilution cause comment).
it appears amateurish, as if the company was not prepared for the success of their product launch?
The new monies coming into DRIO are essentially from a private and in-house sourcing method. That's great . . . however their tech remote mobile method of servicing diabetic consumers and linking them and their medical reading-outs to their professional caregivers, opens up vast possibilities for business profits. The USA administration should be all over this DRIO . . . as a positive health care tech that enhances its Health Care System. In fact, as I see it, Big Health Care should be beating down their door, to ask in on DRIO tech potential.
There is a 'problem' with DRIO tech though: it by-passes the in-place system of blood draws and bricks-and-mortar fluid testing businesses currently owned by various entities (including some by local doctors). Suddenly, they are in danger of being left -out-of-the-pay-loop', so to speak. The internet kind of becomes the data transfer mechanism and the patient and DRIO tech medical info, goes directly to the health care provider. 'Oh . . scribbly screw!' . . . a minor point finger blood draw can now match the medical data the 'blood vampires' charged for.
This business and profit logic can also manifest itself in various other bodily fluid mobile readers.
One can look upon DRIO as the dawning 'Tesla' of futuristic remote and mobile Medical Care NOW. I surmise DRIO gets brought out, blocked in court patent battles, or all the many Diabetic Care Organizations band together and stop the political opposition. Medical innovation is the positive future for all of us, and DRIO is part of it.
Short-term we get some positive PR stock effect, next quarter revenues to DRIO, and an FDA Approval for some kind of domestic test use study (as a minimum) of DRIO tech device. If these just mentioned things happen . . . I and other posters foresee DRIO stock price conservatively above .20.
The Reverse Split matters not much to me . . . in fact I do not even care if DRIO never goes above pink sheet status . . . I have taken the gamble and hold the small amounts I now own. If a short-term trade situation comes up . . . I have back-up.
I feel confident that a lot of folks like Amazon and Goggle and MSFT, etc. are looking DRIO over . . . as a way to expand their empires. Were I any of those big folk . . . I can see how to get in on this new profit field . . . for fthe price of say 6-12 months of toilet paper costs as their businesses. And I would have the political clot to make DRIO a game-changer.
I am surprised DRIO has not invited some USA diabetic health care professionals and patients down to say Mexico, to show them their device.
FDA might want as many as 5-10,000 device readings, to compare records, of current finger pickle diabetic readers now on the market. I would like to see DRIO FDA device approved by end of 2014, however they may want additional data accuracy and device reliability in mobile use mode. FDA is going to have to be careful herein, as DRIO does want to manufacture other type bodily fluid readers. FDA is on the line here.
I am thinking NOV or DEC or Jan 2015 for FDA approval . . . lets see how early Oct date comes out.
DRIO mobile diabetic reader could be big PR potential for increasing efficiency and consumer confidence in USA new health care system. Mobile internet based health reader devices could be big in future of health care.
Stock volume has fallen way down, as well as Y Board and this board daily comments.
You are not going to get .20-.50 DRIO stock price before R/Split, without one or more dramatic PRs. Though . . . company insiders or large public vetted investment house DRIO stock purchases sure might be helpful in this regard.
Why not donate some DRIO readers, to a military unit for testing on its personnel?
Long duration, intense pressure situations (like combat), can be a contributing factor to individual health status factors, and 'drain' the ability of immune system to regulate properly various bodily organ functions. It is felt by many health care researchers, that stress is a contributor to immune deficient disease effects on humans. Meaning, a reduced efficiency immune system, is a component factor in virtually all diseases.
Imagine if DRIO prototyped a Ebola reader SW program, that was connected to its reader and had a visual enlargement display that duplicated a microscope view of the virus? The enlargement power lens of a micro video camera and spectral specific filter, would create a very interesting reader device.
This could lead to other visual evidence SW enlargement programs, for other diseases like TB. User would add chemicals to blood scan and then blow them up on the auxiliary attachment device, connected to the DRIO reader. Using microchip blood sample disease specific analysis, as these are already out in use at blood labs.
This might result in R and D assistance and a grant from someone like DARPA or HLS or Energy Administration. What a great funding source to help propel the stock price. That kind of PR substance would be useful.
I suspect DRIO reads this board. I would, as few stock boards around for DRIO.
Might GLUU get more play if this type of game also allowed certain other WWII countries citizens to challenge history, and change the battlefield defense and attack objectives
(to their personal viewpoint)? Rewarding alternative European history, might then become more lucrative, as game play options to purchase? Player can buy more time or 'weather effect'.
War is never politically correct always?
Also, is the game content and outcomes 'tilted' towards the players achievement of success? Why not have thrown in some secret random weapons and units and cut-off of 'supplies' and say weather events . . . that up sit the players gains?
For example, during WWII the Germans used battlefield wire-controlled robot explosive mini-tanks to attack enemy unit strong points, and also were very close to mounting remote controlled weapons on them. Need to buy some new counter-units and weapons?
Do you see now GLUU stock price slowly building . . . or another 'mini-drop' due?
I saw an artl. somewhere that a certain woman who has a game called KKH is one of richest active women stars in Holly Land.
Who do you think has the power to create magical shares (to their advantage) out of thin air? The MM . . . The Candy Man Can . . . legally. Also, Quants and insiders.
On level One and Two . . . who really are the firms one might see . . . masks for whom?
We will get the R/Split when 'they' bring it on . . . and we are the grass mowed.
No guarantee when it will exactly happen (day or time).
As another poster tells us . . . who retail sees to buy now?
This coming stock stuff with DRIO is puzzling . . . has DRIO inadvertinely (sp) corkscrewed itself, stock performance wise?
HINT to DRIO BOD: we retail investors need a positive PR now.
What have you got? I told you in a previous post, to get some help on this PR substance from communicating with diabetic care organizations as to generalized statements of support for your introduction of this innovative product and service. You know . . . politics has an interest in ultimately reducing the cost of health care, while increasing its efficiency of care.
What to do . . . R/S or positive PR first?
Do you want the R/S from a low stock price, or a higher one?
Something that has not been talked about . . . is this is a DEVICE patent . . . with external specimen test strips from medical subject. This may mean the FDA is merely waiting for some additional use data from present countries and medical users.
As the need for this device is huge in USA, EU, and BRICS medical consumer markets;
FDA might allow a limited rapid test market study of the device in special needs cases (meaning doctors and other health care professionals are distressed and will request test of device use, to help advanced Type II diabetic patients . . . that are depressed mentally by their disease status and suffering thus).
AS soon as market user data shows that testing device is accurate and helpful to those with various disability complications, for example, DRIO should have their FDA use status approved. I also have mentioned, that FDA can gain some credible other foreign government review data and suggestions to DRIO . . . then USA FDA can have 'substance' to back its Orphan Device approval (like a Orphan Drug Approval somewhat). If my musing is correct . . . we might see some form of limited FDA device Approval Test study use shortly (even before spring of 2015).
A approach to some congressmen and Diabetic organizations in consort for this type of limited FDA approved test study . . . might speed up such an event? Also credible USA medical center or facility could also request to test the device, as a way to accelerate the efficiency of medical care and bring real time medical data to health care professionals.
Do not forget . . . DRIO has stated various other bodily fluids can be used to create remote mobile testing kits for things that would be of use to HLS, military,
and other disease conditions.
I have decided to hold my positions and await further developments.
Also, various world and national and private health groups can at any time advance research grants to DRIO (which would avoid some funding issues down the road).
This would be a sweet PR to drop on the shorts and day traders.
As per a previous post (8906), such above happenings would also assist to cancel any competitive knock-offs and legal challenges to DRIO tech.
We will see tomorrow what day traders and short term traders think of this.
We have no evidence what stock position those 3 Mil Ss will take.
No one retail will know for several quarters, how sales and market expansion goes.
This is not happy news, as it appears DRIO will need to come back again and again to the money well, with small new stock issues for money to continue? Who will be buying short-term? They sure think of us as electronic T-paper.
Where is the useful news of something like major medical partner stepping forward?
I agree with other posters . . . this was desperate and DUMB move by DRIO. Looks Amateur-Hour. Or, this is a milk machine hook-up and we are the cows?
Ask . . . where would the legal funding come from . . . to defend themselves (DR
IO) from major foreign competitor 'knocking-off' their product in major Asian or other BRIC markets?
Design patents are NOT full patent status . . . but at least DRIO should be able to get a Design Patent from USPO, cheaply and rather quickly. It would have given some credibility in USA FDA Application. Looking like previous Android appl. status news, was set-up for whats to happen.
Not a happy camper on DRIO right now.
And, majority of R/Splits in Pinkie-Land are not retail friendly.
Think I saw you on ZNGA site?
I chose GLUU over ZNGA, after I did some research.
What makes you want to buy COOL, or are you shorting?
I thought I well covered the options for COOL future.
Do you see something I do not?
Your a lawyer, right? Did you buy GLUU (made some money on that).
I do not know what to think of ZNGA right now . . . especially with MSFT getting into online gaming creation studios (besides their cloud cage 'you rent air-time-not own the software disk' concept of making money). Actually, the cloud makes sense in that a mobile device does not have to have huge code memory on itself (your mobile device just asks for certain SW code from the cloud and can then operate numerous more SW commands in the game on your device). With super computer in the cloud, humans cannot tell the difference in action/time sequences with latest device chips, and its saves on personal device on-board memory needed---making the device cheaper to make and sell to personal user. That cloud concept of gaming, also helps Indie SW designers do cheaper SW code stunts.
I guess what I am saying is MSFT is now the big box and player in SW ownership (guess where that leaves little folks like COOL--->play MSFT cloud game or don't exist, except for old platform SW creation)? In effect, MSFT will eat all small SW companies lunch boxes and some. Indie SW makers will be stuck selling on places like facebook and android store, with low-resolution games to poor$ mobile users.
Personally, I would do crowd funding if I was COOL, etc. small Indies.
Are you buying COOL based on holiday new games lineup hopium shot, or do you see something you might share with rest of us? Are you seeing something on charting set-ups?
OT: Also, if you are lawyer like to hear your thoughts on VIRGO mobile patent buy-ups, and then suing large companies that are possible infringers (sp) on now VIRGO mobile patents. You do not have to answer, if you do not want too . . . just needed some imput on that. I am taking a small chance on VIRGO.
You would have to know how much of production run is automated + rest of assembly is hand assembled (including testing of each device). Reason I say ';testing of each device' . . . is that is critical to user acceptance as high quality product.
Thus, one might estimate initial production runs are practically at unit cost wholesale (for now)? We really do not have much of a handle on what production volume present DRIO facilities can step up to.
Normally, a production product might be 200/400 % of retail cost.
This is early stage company product, and thus probably now not real profitable right now.
I am sure the flippers (traders) do not like my thoughts on this subject.
I hold the stock long and will continue to buy, as I see fit.
This huge drop in price from $s of stock value, seems to indicate a number of possibilities: Reverse Split (doubtful), dramatic need for cash by company insiders that may have sold some of heir alloted shares, or set-up for good news coming?
I commend this company for trying to create a mobile blood fluid reaqding product, that can hook up to cellphone. Western diet is addictive, and commecial products in last 20-30 years have been heavy with additives: Fat, salt, sugar + inert, etc. chemicals, as cheap bulk-izers. Most find it very hard to stop things they have trained themselves to enjoy. Eat natural (if can), juice your foods as able, highly vegan, low-salt and natural sugars, low-cal, moderate regular exercise, keep clean and neat personally, monitor your skin, vision, and legs and feet, calm emotions and mediation can help with diabetic medical conditions. Adapt, improvise, continue. <---all this above under qualified medical supervision. DRIO mobile reader can help make that happen for lots of folks around the world.
Also, many possible other fluids can be read by design of DRIO instrumentation.
Personally, I think the FDA has put a temporary 'wait-and-see attitude' on DRIO product (until sufficient use data facts come in). USA military will be a possible customer for this DRIO product tech: for battlefield, etc. uses.
Good luck to everyone including the flippers (watch out though . . . news effect).
DRIO share price could be affected negatively by general fall of world stock markets due to China economy news, Scotland Vote, FED decisions, Ukraine, and Middle
Eastern 'changes'. However; it is my belief that only achieving a small part of world mobile fluid reading device market . . . will be plenty of revenues for DRIO.
There are competitors.
Yet it is most important to get safe, reliable, easy-to-use device out there in use.
I still hold my few shares, after Reverse Split.
Unless next few months (until say Feb 2015) game releases and Atari Interplay real money gambling are successful . . . COOL looks going to pinkie sheets, BK, merger, or sell off of some divisions and games. China will hardly (IMO) be big buyer of Zumba . . . though I could be wrong, due to overweight issues in general population, therein. Diabetic Zumba exercise game and calories counter game, may help?
Asians generally do Asian format exercises . . . da?
COOL can survive by continuing Midnight City Indie games and Pariplay gambling?
Lets see if present management will invest some of the funds they sold against us retail shareholders believing COOL still had a chance. Doubtful anyone would be hiring present COOL management, except maybe Atari or Pariplay, under merger?
Suspect Zumba and perhaps Cooking MaMa franchises to be sold to other companies, or canned, if holiday sales do not show up.
If Atari online real money gambling does good after launch in October, they might finance COOL takeover. Atari could use Midnight City Indie to expand their presence.
Layoffs coming at COOL if holiday sales not good? Atari could hardly lose, scooping up COOL fro; Midnight City.
Scotland vote and FED meeting results, plus Ukraine and ISIS Syrian strikes could fold the general market, also and thus COOL share price with it?
Anyone else have ideas or comments?
Its hard to know how all this will comes out.
Will folks still travel (and if they do . . . western hemisphere travel will be desirable, as lower cost for westerns)?
I am starting to think ATIG will not 'unfreeze', until into 2015 (until they have definite earnings to attract investors, and get new financing sources).
So far . . . OMEX equates to my pink sheet disasters.
How convenient that the court 'sealed' the progress of the finds.
Makes one ponder who proposed that?
Why even have the court 'in-on-the-work'?
Why . . . when the wreck is in international waters?
Why USA Marshals take possession and escort the 'find' . . . can't court have private contractors do that? Sounds like USA government wants first call on any claims from the wreck. Recovery and Seize . . . is that the name of new OMEX film documentary? Is there some kind of legal issue that these PM coins will be USA government property (as they were in 1800's).
Other possibility is USA government does not trust recovery by private sources and wants full amount of taxes due . . . from previous salvage. <---were that so, why not have 2 or more USA Marshals on-board the Explorer, to 'observe' and document the find?
Or, has USA government demanded placement of listening devices and TV-live monitoring on each haul up, on the recovery boat? The whole recovery mission is 'twilight zone, even without Morse.
The shorts have had their fun . . . now its time to milk them?
The company (OMEX) has done nothing to defend its retail investors . . . guess we know what they think of us. Really sounds like a lot of folks are against us.
I can think OMEX will not be done with the recovery by Mid-October.
One guess what season that time frame is in.
I am long . . . and underwater, as I thought OMEX could go much higher in price.
Again, we need major contracts to enable our production costs to drop.
Unless its the 1% . . . most of us are not too terribly interested in a cell phone case that adds tens of dollars to a phone cost, just to solar mobile charge it?
Without a positive military or civilian contract, we continue (at best) to be in day trading range or (worse) a steady slow stock price fall.
I may be the only stock holder who does not like a Reverse Split, but my thought thereof is it drives away potential new investors. If a company has to do a R/S . . . think . . . what does that tell you about management and the company's product lines?
Forget about Yuppie 'auto solar charging tents' and go for a electric wheel chair scooter coating (or over-head charging platform rack), that can draw in some sales.
I see lots of senior and disabled folk (including Vets), that could use a scooter solar coating charger array, that they can park and charge. Not all electric scooter users are using them for total mobility. I see more and more people using electric scooters in place of a car, to travel several miles to shop. They park them, and then get out and shop' and then ride back home.
The real future of EVs is short trip, low-cost urban use and travel in special set-aside lanes and travel paths. 3-wheel electric motorcycles fit into that catagory, also. Electric bikes and scooters can come in the less than $1k range.
ASTI has to come up with something drama . . . know anyone that even knows about flexible, low weight solar cells . . . what's wro drawng with that picture?
ASTI needs to have motor home for travel and set-up outside sporting, community fairs, school visits for show-and-tell (and taking orders)? Visit businesses and stores and show them the product. Old-fashion 'touch-and-see the product' advertising.
And, forget selling solar backpacks to regular people for $40-70 . . . not going to happen. They will not even 'bite' for $15. REI crowd might . . . but not the school-er users.
An ASTI demo project should be solar-ized motorcycle and bike fenders.
Also, roof-top and hood and trunk solar cell coatings, that trickle charge your vehicle battery will extend its lifetime. BOT a car battery lately . . . you will be sticker shocked. You can extend auto mileage by 2-5% with solar cells on the roof, that run auto accessories (an alternator design that dis-in-gauges when not needed . . . reduces engine power load draw).
Again, go talk to Mr. Musk at TSLA . . . car can then charge when traveling and parked. If he does not want it . . . all kinds of small upcoming EV companies, that need a novel addition to their design offer.
If ASTI wants novel uses for its solar products . . . go to the public and schools and have PAY Prizes for worthwhile submissions. Facebook and u-Tube the contest (and school and community newspapers and radio ads.
Looking like ATIG is starting to diversify itself.
Listening to free music (does one have/own their own personal set of earphones and their own media player); could actually be something to induce B-M-C goers and online mobile gamblers to spend money at a website.
So our 'frozen' retail stock investor monies, is funding all this?
I guess PRs by ATIG are 'frozen' also.
ATIG puts out the PRs it wants out, but they carefully avoid any mention of financial paths. Longest period of 'freeze' I have ever encountered with a stock.
Wait and watch.
What is funny is the Brick-and-Mortar Casinos into horse racing, become more profitable by offering musical slot machine plays, and are funding A/C ed facilities for senior and poor bettors. Only seems to have taken them a decade or so, to figure this out. Everyone to their own recreational style.
Bit Coin is like buying an online use debit or store rack credit card, I think.
Lets see how that goes (acceptance by gamblers). <---it could actually be the way to pay online for gambling . . . I do not know how it works . . . does one also have the privilege of receiving your online gambling profits? I am asking, how do you 'cash out' your Bit Coin account to real money (or, do you take prize coupons to use at selected stores, as your 'win')? Is Bit Coin a Barter System, that by-passes online banking?
You go out and find all this stuff and put it on here . . . but ATIG can't?
That kind of worries me.
My typing error . . . COOL puts out Cooking Mama (game has been a hit in past and they keep updating it). Not pushing other company . . . just a close rival style VG, to compare against.
That tapinator company . . . I listened to interview and looked at their website. Think the interviewee just used GLUU name and KK to gain some credit on his Bloom Berg interview, about women gamers. Stock had way low daily volume, though stock price due to what?
I sincerely doubt GLUU and that stock would have business together, without looking further into their games (seem just adpations of sme basic game content (truck, bus, car, toy, airplane, etc. parking. though they seem to have milions of hits on cell phones. Some military games. Middle Eastern based (present NATO ally), with several western offices?
Anyone care to comment on my observations?
May that game have wide appeal with children, their friends, and family.
Lets watch how Cooling MaMa (Cool) does against it?
Not to do the cold ice water trip . . . China is very soon bringing out its own native designed SW operating system. Slow, methodically China 'adapts' its internal and Asian market to its wants and methods. In a trade war . . . with the folks that manufacture your systems and hold your electronic paper debt . . . who will win?
Most recently, the PLA layed down the law of no free elections (other parties) to its former British Colony: WE are The Party!
Bye-bye Apple Pie?
Problem: Nintendo is in nitch (sp) market (younger customers) predominantly, and old school originals in management think/see thus. They want to continue their own game platform, that has declining followers.
If the N bot GLUU . . . that would maybe turn out bad for both companies as management
methods would clash. The N may have Bil $ cash now . . . but is on course to failure?
You can take a cellphone now . . . add some more interface ports (like USB), upgrade the SW options, use SS hard Drives, Cloud virtual memory, and jack or wireless blue tooth to your big screen TV. Think Fire TV and MOJO.
This means, roughly, the kids rapidly outgrow the Wi and in today's cost-conscious generic device world . . . family start to form their buy s around same use platforms.
The N platform appears the opposite of that trend? <---The N does not do for access to more mature games. I would surmise its the platform . . . not their games that is the problem?
GLUU is starting to eat N's lunch, so to speak.
GLUU has wisely (I vision) developed a set of relationships with Indie development houses that can bring in that type of game (in GLUU marketing picture), without necessarily involving the 'faster-and-Fur Burners' in-house developers; into something foreign to their adult-ized VG style creation skills? GLUU doesn't seem to have any (current) need to be with N. <----did I get that right?
I guess I am saying N can't grow into GLUU and GLUU is smart enough to absorb N share of market, gradually. I think one should not adopt a set style in mobile VG development . . . and be fluid and open to taking opportune creative and marketing twists . . . to gain new customers. That's our GLUU plus!
Like the artl. and A-boarders remarked . . . the N does not get its mind-set around
'other ways' that are gently suggested to it.
Then fine, walk off into the dark singing . . . Wi is the way!
Taken to another level, this stuff is what is happening out in our world about us . . . never get too comfort: as individuals and organizations? Adapt, improvise and continue. Innovation is the well of success.
To change the subject----latest PR by AMD big shot proclaims bad times ahead for AMD---
will not have active production of consumer lower-scale sized logic chips, until latter 2015-2016. Price cutting ahead, to keep AMD competitive? The trend is away from big box computers . . . to mobile computer devices. Does that mean we are in for rocky stocky?
I had been foreseeing AMD stock price rising into end of year holiday sales . . . hmm.
Lets see what effect this 'news' has on AMD stock price.
Also, will MSFT Xbox One sales continue to expand or fail?
Japan very light sales, but China market beckons (China may buy USA MSFT [made-in-China], over Japanese owned PS4. Either way, AMD chips are used in both gaming devices.
Imagine 4-D printed dwelling or product . . . that gets reprogramned by accident (e.g. static random numbers created from cat fur charge). Oh . . . ---- . . . how do we get out now?!! The door disappeared. Pray your innovative 4-D dwelling has only ROM.
IF . . . the world economy keeps 'improving' by counter-poising currency devaluations and off-books accounting . . . which chip maker stands to gain the ever growing switch to poverty gaming devices (read enhanced cell phones)? AMD talked about going more into solid state hard drives, might that be best way to 'economize' and offer add-on gaming upgrading to low-cost cell phone models? Think of resident task specific chip sets nested within such SSD add-ons. Or, might 'the cloud' dominate, as way to create virtual memory effects?
Further question: does TLSA use AMD processor chips in its computer-controlled Li-ion batteries? The TSLA battery , of course, is made in Japan (Pan-Sonic).
That NV Giga Battery Factory . . . would AMD gets some orders?
This is hard to call.
Looks like Radiant got their financing $s back with a short?
There is not much other reason I can think up as to why stock price dropped today. Lets see how it goes rest of week. Friday is usually when folks drop out of stock, as weekend news (ME and Ukraine) can drop general markets around the world.
Unless a contract is to be announced (lets hope-ium), ASTI insider like the extra free cash. Tkhough . . . the new loan amount (or whatever you want to term it), should allow ASTI to expand production and new product development/advertising.
Previous poster mentioned GGGL drones (hope any ASTI connection e.g. wing solar cells), works out . . . though the drones probably will not be OK-ed to delivery directly to your house. Mostly likely, would be set air lane traffic flown into delivery hubs. What is interesting, is delivery companies can then by-pass airports and go directly to say goggle owned hubs near silicon valley companies?
So who now owns rights to USA ASTI technology . . . USA or Asia?
And, who exactly in Asia? Recent news story told of possible patent war with Asian country, over 'your-eyes-only' trade secrets. <---Will/would ASTI become somehow 'involved' . . . Asian nation is countering with restrictions on exotic metals export. Might also come out the other way around . . . as Asian silicon export restrictions happening also (ASTI uses economical spray-on roll-to-roll fabrication process that is supposedly cheaper . . . less material used in thin flexible solar cell.
Would ASTI somehow . . . become a model low-cost producer, in trade war?
Related: to above . . . asked seasoned older real estate person who they are doing insurance for on housing purchases (who is buying in USA domestic market) . . . was told much was foreign buyers. Future . . . read between-the-lines?
Checked out photos and talk on Volvo/ASTI flexible solar cells on tent twisted helix-like, mobile package solar cell charger for their new electric hybrid. Geely (Chinese co.) involved, if I remember right they bot Volvo. Solar charger tent fits in auto trunk, and sets up in less than 1 hour: uses 252 5 X 7 ASTI solar cells on it. Show-and-tell demo model only. Very cool artsy design . . . but impractical for neighbor home use or parking lot (think damage and 'it just disappeared last night!'. Very light weight though. Going to have to go back to reality drawing board on this one use model potential?
Without new solid contracts and ';news' . . . tech chart geek-ies may be looking in the rear-view mirror, or on 'the highway to cloud nine'?
Lets be very positive and think we are not on 'the road to hell'.
Confusing . . . do not remember a R/S stock ever increasing in price like this. Could we have got a new contract or a loan or a governmental grant? Or, is it just set-up to pull in new shareholders and then continue shorting?
I mentioned in a previous post a number of product innovation avenues ASTI might pursue. Solar chargers for cellphones has never met much success, to date by any manufacturer, that I am aware of.
I have ran into solar cells that have tap-off for various sub-voltages like 9V, 4.5V and 3V on them. I would think ASTI might go that route . . . and get one product that can do a number of charger replacements? I do not see why ASTI solar chargers are so high priced, and if they can get a decent sized order . . . unit charger prices should drop?
Is ASTI solar technology usable in materials like window glass (which means ever few filaments there is open space for light to pass through the solar cell circuitry)?
I would like to see something done with a roof manufacturer to combine with roofing tile, as we need user data on commercial projects like that.
Maybe we got a small order for the solar cell wing drone?
Whether that drone is useful would depend on the camera lens power that it can bring to an observation application, and whether it is real-time image. It might be useful for small tactical units to use along a border.
I still think ASTI solar product has wide use potentials that the company has not explored.
I like that it is family genre game.
Seems to be for ages 7-12 . . . this is good as it tends to draw that game age demographic towards GLUU games use. Its a fun game to pay with family and friends.
Its launch is also right in new school year. I could be wrong on my premise of new game age demographic . . . as who would have thought Candy Crush would appeal to so many age group players.
GLUU (to me) seems far wise, in that company reaches out to lots of game use groups, and that mix just gives us more diversity of profits possible.
Everyone needs some reward . . . for again entering the school swirl. The game has great multi gender play specs, that helps too?
Just imagine if it causes cross-talk, between younger gender players.
Now, you know why GLUU has tremendous management and marketing successes. We are not a one-lane game banger company. Professional buyers will note this and GLUU growing quarterly revs record.
Translation: we get their OK!
And, countries like Russia and China can believe the new game is political neutral (just what the doctor ordered to occupy their citizens with family play values) . . . togetherness is us!
Looking like 5.50-5.75 for next week or coming week?
