i focused on this:
"This testing with a two-strain hybrid created the largest caterpillars and cocoons Kraig Labs has ever produced. As we look to the 2024 silk-producing season, these new lines will become the bedrock upon which future production is built. We have additional strains in earlier stages of development that we hope to roll out in the third or fourth quarter of 2024 for double hybrid production."
"2024 silk-producing season"
no the silk TESTING or FIELD tests, but the the SILK PRODUCING season...
"We have ADDITIONAL strains in earlier stages of development"
meaning the 2 strain hybrids they used for the pilot run are good to go...NOW...but the additional ones will be rolled out in the third or fourth quarter...
i initially just read over the letter quickly and was kinda bummed about the fact that i didnt see anything definitive about a time frame for mass production...
but one has to CAREFULLY read these letters and pr's if you want to get what kim is actually saying...and in this letter, kim is telling you that he is focused on beginning mass production ASAP and that he has the worms that he intends to use...
this is kim...this is how he writes and deseminates info...i dont like it...i like plain talk...i like things stated clearly...but this is kim...thats not what he does...he has NEVER done that...thats what we have to deal with...
although i will say, the last few pr's have been more plain and far clearer than any i have ever read previously...but you cant speed read through them and get what he is saying...
“ While we have always done breeding and egg production in our laboratories, we found, through the school of hard knocks, that our skill sets in this area did not translate outside of the environmentally controlled lab.”
I have said this since 2011…every time they talked about taking those soft, delicate, pampered eggs to a non controlled environment in order to mass produce, I posted my doubts they would get the results they anticipated…
They blamed the Korean facility, they blamed poison mulberry leaves and after GSS, they had to finally face the music and admit they needed REAL experts to consult and see what the hell was wrong…
Lots of years wasted…but at least it looks like they finally got it together…
"I'd really like to know what that's all about."
seems pretty obvious to me...everyone who is in the business of spider silk research or has a need for spider silk because it will make a huge difference in what they do, are likely clamoring to do business with kblb...there was always interest and curiosity...but that picture of ACTUAL SPIDER SILK PRODUCT takes that interest and curiosity to a whole other level...
some will want to become a customer, others partners, still others may want to enter into some kind of licensing agreement...might be some that want to invest or buy a piece of the action...
public sector could be Vietnam, India, the military in general and the AF in particular...then theres the allied country that showed interest....and the list could go on and on....
the private sector is just about everyone else..
but yea i know...you probably think the public sector is the sanitation dept and the private sector is joe's t-shirt outlet...
in my state?...just as many as there is now...
pretty much everyone that has an ev also have solar panels...
When the inflation reduction act was passed, many companies thought they would be able to do their usual schtick which is to pretend to do the right thing while while receiving gov welfare checks and making tons of money…
They were all set to make clean hydrogen using dirty energy…many are crying foul that they can’t do that…they are aghast at the idea that they will actually have to follow the rules which compel them to do the right thing…
This isn’t how it’s usually done…they are beside themselves and are vowing to fight this atrocity…
Lol
The Air Force isn’t promoting any companies…a senator was holding up military promotions because of the DOD’s policy on abortion…the senator has released his hold and the military is now promoting all their personnel that were waiting for their promotions…
“Nothing more than a dead cat bounce at this point”
When a stock has dropped sharply and quickly, there is likely to be a bounce when it hits bottom and many traders will play that bounce…it doesn’t matter whether the stock or company is good or bad because if falling from a high enough point, even a “dead cat” will bounce…
Kblb dropped below 4 cents 5 months ago…it’s been a long slow steady decline…a drop from 4 cents to 3 cents, isn’t much of a drop anyway…the market may have run over Kblb and dragged it a few hundred feet….but there was no bounce involved…
Kblb has received a Xmas gift of substantially good news which has raised the volume and pps…the pattern is pretty much higher highs and higher lows…it wouldn’t take much to keep that pattern…more decent news every so often would do it….too much time without news will cause a retracement…
"Going to the NASDAQ will definitely attract the shorts."
what i said:
"If the pps goes over a buck, a r/s wouldn’t be so bad…a 1/10 split…with the company in mass production, fulfilling contracts and
raking in decent revenues, the Nasdaq would be a great place to jump to"
there are a lot of companies that are struggling on the nasdaq....if kblb had done a 1-50 reverse split and jumped to nasdaq without having mass production, or revenue, yes, they would have been shorted...i said that...i also said i would have shorted it myself...mercilessly...
but with mass production, fulfilling contracts and raking in revenue, why would shorters target them?...shorters target stocks that are not doing well or look like they will drop on their own anyway...
shorters dont target a company thats growing, increasing revenues and is doing well...theres no need...too many crap companies to bother messing with good ones...
if you were a criminal looking for an easy target, would you rob the older lone person walking to their Mercedes or the "Rock" lookalike walking to his 1998 accord?...
risk vs reward...
Nasdaq won’t solve any issues…any “issues” would already be solved before the jump…
The Nasdaq is a huge jump up from the OTC…the OTC is where many start…and they all aspire to move to a higher, more legit exchange…for a whole bunch of reasons that really shouldn’t need to be detailed…
Think of it as running a business making widgets out of your garage and wanting to eventually hire employees and work out of an actual factory setting with room for new equipment etc…
No one should have to ask why you want to do that…the advantages should be obvious..
He’s keeping that s-1 alive for a reason…he still wants to go nasdaq…eventually..
If the pps goes over a buck, a r/s wouldn’t be so bad…a 1/10 split…with the company in mass production, fulfilling contracts and
raking in decent revenues, the Nasdaq would be a great place to jump to…
Kim stated he put the nasdaq/reverse split on the back burner in order to focus entirely on getting mass production done and contracts fulfilled…
I liked the sound of that…and he appears to be following through…
I’m sure as progress is made, (and reported) the pps will rise…I’d like to see a move made to Nasdaq without a r/s being necessary…
But under the right circumstances, a r/s at a buck that gets Kblb to the nasdaq is doable…
"Either way, anyone with time and money has a ton to gain and nothing to lose investing at the levels."
even if you had been consistently correct these last few years, this statement would still be a bone headed thing to say...
but with your record, it should be a criminal offense...
seriously....what the hell is wrong with you??
“After all these years of sensible caution, you’re not ready to kick it all away after seeing one photo?”
Yes…it’s all about one photo…not at all about all the things that led up to that photo…
The new equipment, scientists hired, expert consultants hired, management changes, protocols and procedures that resulted in major improvements and the new worms that were created to be more robust to thrive in the needed environment…the overall general progress that culminated in the successful pilot run that proved their production model, the results of which can be seen in that photo…
But sure…let’s pretend it was just the photo and nothing else…that makes posting stupid shit that much easier…
"Clearly subject to interpretation."
agreed...
my interpretation is that its horseshit...
" I’ll argue with your stupid comments tomorrow if I get a chance."
try doing it BEFORE happy hour...
"You still never denied that you were EXACTLY like web"
i believe i stated my position quite succinctly...when you fall out of bed and wake up tomorrow, and read this board, you may realize that...
"You drove me nuts when I WAS on the band wagon."
maybe try getting on that wagon for a while...might do you good...
"But hey, you just just flip burgers correct?"
JUST flip burgers?...no...i dont JUST flip burgers...
"You’re a freaking hypocrite, man, and I can prove it"
so if someone doesnt like something, they can never change their mind?....they have to keep the same opinion no matter what?...lol
heres a clue...years ago, i started to believe that the tech had promise...in the very beginning, i had my doubts...but in the few years after, i could see where the tech had a shot....but it was NEVER going to get anywhere with nickels and dimes...NEVER...
i kept stating that kim needed to beg borrow or steal at least $4-5 mil to have a decent shot at making it all work...the turning point for me was when kim struck the deal with the hedge fund for a few million bucks...thats when i knew that kim was finally getting serious about making a success out of kblb....at that point i slowly started accumulating shares...
this is the stock market...this is investing...its all about making money...when i see no reason to buy, i dont...when i see a reason to buy, i do...thats not hypocritical...SMH
when i see a company making what i believe to be the wrong moves, im negative about them....
when i see them start to make the right moves, im positive about them...
HELLO!...does that sound unreasonable?...lol
"The man that consistently drove everyone nuts years ago doing the exact same thing I’m saying."
i was involved with the stock...either trading it or owning it...i conversed with others who had opposing views...and i did so honestly....i voiced my opinions honestly...
you sold all your shares and have no interest in the company or stock...you are here simply to bitch and moan...no other reason...
see the difference?...
"Just because you changed your mind means no one else should voice their opinion ?"
by all means..voice your opinion...just dont bitch and moan...i mean come on man...one likes a cry baby...
and try sometimes posting when you're sober...that might make a difference also...
"Mojo, you used to post as much as web does now. That’s the truth !!"
and your point is?...
i have always traded or owned this stock...there were periods of time where i did neither...in the beginning, i didnt believe that the company could pull it off...but it was a good trading stock so i traded it...as time went on, i could see that the tech was unique and had possibilities...i wasnt a fan of the ceo, but i thought the company had a good shot at succeeding...and i have made a ton of money with kblb...and yes, i post on this board because im am involved with the stock...so yea, you will be able to find a lot of my posts on the board...there are thousands of them...
now compare that to someone with thousands of posts on a message board where he has made NO money with the stock, has never owned or traded it and thinks the ceo, company and tech are nothing but crap...
and you somehow manage to come to the conclusion that he and i are the same??...lol
"Your drinking comments, going no where man."
all your blustering and bellowing say different...
"Like I said I do have interest. I’m looking out for someone close to me."
looks to me like they should be looking out for you...
" And as far as all of you that say web is paid ? It’s dumb !! He’s voicing his opinion."
with all the research, posting and time spent here, i should hope he'd be getting paid...he has already stated he has never owned or traded one single share of kblb...if hes not getting paid, then he is an incredible imbecile...
"Mojo, don’t even respond. 6 months from now you’ll be saying what I’m saying now."
will i have to start drinking then?...damn beast, you are a mean drunk...smh
Professor fortune cookie!….lmao!…that’s priceless!
1.5 mil shares bought...311k sold...spent the majority of the day above .04...was hoping for .045 with continuation into tomorrow...but the volume sort of died off...might pop a bit in the morning, but then probably going to retrace...
its a healthy thing to do...regroup, retrace, consolidate a bit, then hopefully, with news, break through .05...
smh...just pitiful...
wow...getting kicked to the curb by kblb and retaliating with negativity on this board...and now realizing just how foolish that decision was...what a humbling experience for such an arrogant person...
im enjoying every minute of it...
nothing but vague, non-commital nonsense...cant answer simple questions...
weak
once they start mass producing, ill say they are mass producing...
LMAO...
dont sidestep the question...you keep promoting spiber on this board...
YOU answer the question...
"todays pr states that one of them is a success…they are bigger, better, more robust and they work"
i liked that line...you didnt reply to who said it...had to search around to find out who said it...
turns out, it was me...lol
Not interested in anything that far back…
How about up 70% in the last month…
And that’s just the beginning!!!
Put that in your pipe and smoke it
“See here for more details”
I’ll give you details…
pps is .04 with 1.4 mil traded…in the first hour…
How you like dem apples???
Lmao
You want “spring trials” to mean many months of testing with nothing else happening…
That is DEAD WRONG…
“If this was such a "success", then they would move right into commercial production. But that isn't happening.”
Guess again…
“The Company is now planning to transition all of its spider silk production to a two strain hybrid model in the near term.”
Kblb is a far different company today, than it was “in the past”…there’s almost no comparison…
That’s why I keep saying those who are living in the past will miss out on the future…
Todays pr is the beginning of kblb’s success story…they spent a year developing these new strains of worms…todays pr states that one of them is a success…they are bigger, better, more robust and they work…
Either get on board or continue being dead wrong…
"When I work on these critical labs, “buildings “."
i hope you are sober when you are doing that...
i dont believe anything you are rambling about has anything to do with GSS...and thats where we are going to mass produce...
just chill out...
i gather you install air conditioning?...how wonderfull...good luck with that...
"You don’t listen to me"
no.... not really...
"But hey, I don’t know what I’m talking about"
agreed...
"GOOD LUCK !!!!"
thanks, but i dont really need it...
This is fcel’s time to shine…but they’ve bungled so many projects, I don’t have much confidence in them…
And this is Exxon….there are 2 scenarios…
One, Exxon let’s fcel be involved in the project…it goes well and Exxon signs them to a new hundred million dollar contract…
Or two, they let fcel be involved so if something goes wrong, they blame them and kick them to the curb…but if things go good, they still kick them to the curb and do it all themselves…
To me, the key is fcel getting signed by Exxon to a new contract…continued reluctance by Exxon doesn’t bode well for fcel…
“There is good reason to believe the problem of genetic drift has endured into this year.”
No..there really isn’t..
“Why else were problems arising at HQ, which does not suffer from climate or disease issues.”
Detail what the problems were…if you don’t know, then you are just making up nonsense…
“Silkworms don’t acclimate”
They don’t produce spider silk either…and yet, they do now…re-read that pr I quoted and then my comments…and stop thinking that the worms, themselves, need to somehow “acclimate”…smh
“Perhaps you are picking up a few shares here and there on big dips”
It’s not “perhaps”…I just told you I did…and they were temporary dips, not “big” dips…that’s why I bought…
“If more is better, a whole heck of a lot is a heck of a lot better.”
I already have a whole heck of a lot…
“Go for it!”
I already did…it is you that is hesitating…stop scaring yourself with boogeymen that aren’t there…
isnt this porthos pilot project actually a rather large expense for fcel?...theres no profit in it if i recall...the profit will come when its proved its worth...but thats not for quite some time yet...
is this correct?...
lol... no joke...
