Nooo... no more validating. Lets just assume it is all good from here on out! hahaha. I just got in and I already want out. My quick flip isn't looking so good right now. I have never even heard of this happening before... that's a lot of shares to drop without disclosure. I kinda thought that you had to disclose something like that.
I guess we'll see how it all plays out. This week has been a really up and down week of plays for me. I've had a five bagger, a 3 bagger, and two that are looking like they may drop out of existance. hahaha... The whole "you win some, you lose some" saying is really annoying this week.
I have to say after talking to Mr. Sperber on the phone tonight things are matching up. The business model is making MUCH more sense to me. In fact, I really wish there was a corporate website that would talk about the business model alone. This is going to be part of my report so I wont go into all the details right now. But the concept is one that a lot of doctors use, such as pain doctors. They share a percentage of their take in exchange for the referral business and opportunity to operate out of their location. Lower overhead and traffic for the person and more money to pay for frontage to the office. Works out great for both sides.
I'm still going to do some pretty hardcore research myself to make certain that our AMSZ world is as perfect as we would like to believe. I will probably do a string of posts announcing all of my findings. My goal is to produce media evidence along with my findings in order to give a solid idea as to what is happening.
I guess not. I'm going to be putting in a lot of personal hours doing research for this. I have a lot of money tied up here so I'm going to make certain that we get to the bottom of this. Myself and another member are going to possibly try to meet up this weekend and take pictures, videos, etc. I am going to even try to meet up with Brian to see what else we can do. We're going to remedy all of this. So just enjoy your weekend, think positive thoughts, look forward to the future and lets get ready for movement. Lets not assume anything.
Agreed! This would be retarded... you don't go full disclosure only to scam. That would just be suicide not only for you but for those that endorse it.
I just spoke with Brian again. We WILL have some media for the locations. I'm going to be obtaining this weekend and will put it together for everyone by Monday sometime. This should be great to not only reaffirm the company that we are invested in but also to show exactly what these locations are like so that other investors can have a solid image of what they are investing in.
I am definitely looking forward to making a huge move on this investment in the next few weeks. Lots of things on the burner. Lots of things that are really exciting going on in the company. I think each week is going to be much exciting than the next.
So far a lot of things are matching up really well. Come Monday I will have a full detailed report of EVERY detail of my findings. I am going to do backgrounds on everyone involved, the companies, and the locations. I will find out about every location so that we can all know what we are investing into.
If you have anything you would like me to add to my report please send me a PM and I will make certain to include it if I can find any information about it. This is going to be the most DD that I have ever done on a stock but once I am done we can finally but everything to rest and move on.
I feel pretty confident that everything is going well within the company. I will however make the extra effort to do the research that will inform all of us about the true happenings. You can expect this information to be posted along with pictures probably late Monday. I am going to attempt to get it done beforehand but most likely it will not come until late Monday due to prior obligations.
For the time being lets just assume the world is perfect, be happy and have a good weekend.
Good enough. I'm going to verify all of these things this weekend and Monday. I'm going to speak with Brian about all of this and meet up with him Monday in order to check out the locations. Again I will post pictures of the trip so that I can either confirm or deny locations. So far looking at the press releases PRIOR to going public there were A LOT of locations. Those are all matching up just fine. I'm going to verify the ones in question so that we can have REAL evidence. I think REAL evidence is MUCH more important than just throwing around statements.
It just seems strange that you aren't invested yet you care so much about the company and its stock. Let us do our due diligence here. It is going to have A LOT more impact coming from those of us that are actually vested in it. Right now you are just coming off as a basher whether or not you are one.
I promise if you are correct, I will more than give you the credit you are due. But until then, please let us look into this. If you have anything else I should look at please PM me.
Doral FL location appears to be affiliated with Doctors Now. I need to do some more research on this one but so far it looks like a place they would share space with. Ortho Now is another part of their business. They have two separate suites 103 and 201.
Alright... here is a press release that is VERY important. This straightens a lot out. This was released PRIOR to them EVER going public.
http://www.free-press-release.com/news/200904/1241141892.html
You will see they list several doctors that I have verified that are real. It doesn't have anything to do with the medispa. I don't see any issues with this location.
I'm definitely going out to check several locations. I will take pictures of my findings when I go. I will inform everyone as soon as I know more details.
Don't worry about saving us... we're on this one tothebank. Like I said, I live here in Florida and I have no problem going out and visiting locations. I will even call Brian and take him up on his offer to meet with me at the locations. This way he can show me the locations so there isn't a single doubt that I'm at the right place.
Why would they invite investors to come visit new locations publicly? Why would Brian invite me out to ride with him when I told him I would take him up on it?
I will let everyone know the status of my little Monday adventure. Maybe I will even go out this weekend so that we can put this behind us before the weekend.
I know right! Who does that? I just wish I didn't buy in when I saw the news come out hoping for a quick flip.
Tell you what, I personally will go out to each of the locations next week... well... all but the ones in Miami area and take pictures. I am a day trader. This is a big hold of mine and I'll do the Due Diligence. I've got a lot at stake here so I'll take pictures of locations. As much as I've been hyping the stock you know I'm going to do my damnedest to take pictures of the actual locations.
Hahaha, thank you... I guess. I'm not sure I have ever been singled up as the person that DOES NOT have to man up. Not sure I have ever been told I needed to man up either... regardless, pretty funny!
My big thing is that things hold a stock down all of the time. Normally you see it with nanos that have a sudden explosion. This isn't something I typically freak out about because once all of those that get scared leave the stock normally rebounds the way it should. The stock market can't be perfect every single day. It doesn't always go the way that you want, but it works if you give it a chance to. There are reasons for floats and float limits. There are reasons for uptick limits.
If the company is solid and strong your investment is safe and it doesn't matter what MMs or anyone else does, eventually it is going to turn around. It is the natural flow of the market.
If they release news before the float dries up it will still jump it just won't jump as aggressively as it does with some other pennies. The key here is that they announce something that is solid. Not the intent of adding a new location or the intent to acquire new locations... the PR needs to be solid where they say that something has been finalized. When they do that there isn't anything that can hold the stock back.
I have somewhere in the neighborhood of $11k-$12k invested into this company and there are a few others that have much more than that. Rather than freaking out at things we are all holding strong. Once it breaks through all of this mess it should shoot up pretty easily. It just takes some common sense and a level head to realize that they can only play this game for so long. Either the PR is going to be so good that it will jump past the shorters and they will be chasing it trying to cover OR they will hit the float of 47 million and they lose the ability to short. Either way we are going to win which is why I'm being very calm about it and keeping my eye on a strong run within 15-20 days.
The company has A LOT going on right now. Much of which hasn't even really been announced. This includes some overseas business. These types of things when they are finalized are going to mean VERY BIG things for the company.
We just need patience.
I hope they post a retraction stating that they misprinted the number of outstanding shares. Seems a little strange that they would increase the available by that much virtually overnight and I would have thought that would have made a bigger impact on the price today. The price ended up VERY good the last two days considering that. So it does seem a little odd to me.
But... I'm holding for the next 5 years anyway now! I WILL make this work! ;0
That's a really horrible drop. Wish I would have noticed that prior to jumping in. Luckily I went with a much smaller position on this one.
Looks like the company is stable and growing considerably. I wonder if this is a major move to accomplish something in the future. Looks like I'm holding very very long to find out!
Definitely. It will take some time for the street to accept the stock again after the massive dump early in the year but once it starts to rise you'll see the flippers and the chasers jump on board to ride it up. Key is that we remain positive about it. The price is probably going to drop again while there is still float available. Once that float is gone (15-20 days max) then it will give the stock a huge chance to rally and force the shorter to cover. My guess is that the shorter is going to cover prior to maxing out the float so that they still have control over their exit price and have some leverage on the market price. This will probably happen the end of next week if they are smart or early the following week. BUT they can only push the stock down 9.9% per day in the process AND they have to start the bid on an uptick so this is going to make it A LOT more difficult as we move on with new PR releases.
I also expect the PR to wait until the week after next. The deals are ready. We know this. BUT it just doesn't make sense to release them with the sideways activity. If they release AFTER the float is reached or close to the float it will force the shorter to cover and of course create a quick squeeze which will push the stock up dramatically.
This happened before on this same stock by the looks of it last year and I suspect it will happen in a similar fashion this time.
Patience... and hold strong together! Again, lets believe in the company, know that PR may be held another week BUT it is ALL in our best interest. I could be wrong on this, but lets stay positive if nothing comes because honestly we want it to come when we have the best opportunity to see a rise in PPS.
I'm expecting a turnaround late in the week into next week. Here is what we should all think about.
Currently there is 22 million in shorts. They are averaging about 1-1.5 million shorts per day. This means they will max out the float limit in about 15-20 days. So, at the WORSE case scenario, they are forced into a cover position as the stock rallies in 15-20 days as they can no longer short it. This of course would send the stock spiraling unchecked up to god knows where. Shorting keeps stocks from doing this but with this float maxed they can't short to control it. So this stock could leap hard without any real force to stop it. This is worse case scenario.
Best case is that it will start to recover end of next week or into the following week as they near the end of the float. This of course will probably get them to cover early so that they can control the price that they get in at and of course give them some shorting leverage as price rises. BUT if they don't cover enough then they could max the float and effect send this stock to insane heights.
Follow me? This is why patience is important. I am giving it about 2 weeks out before a solid rally. I think things could happen sooner, but 2 weeks feels comfortable to me because it changes the game from an MM controlled game to a retail buyer controlled game.
Keep in mind that 2 of the 17 locations will not be up and running for another month or so. One is the new flagship set for the end of May to early June and the other is the Sohna location that is part of the acquisition deal but hasn't officially opened yet. That is part of the reason they are in Knoxville right now.
Good DD, just trying to make sure we are posting solid facts. ;0
I doubt there is anything happening with insider trading especially now that they upgraded to current. That would just be crazy if you ask me.
I think your position is great personally. There should be quite a bit of running room. The huge short position is going to clear itself probably throughout the next week. I'm guessing we'll start to see a turnaround at about that time. As for the price, it can't go below .08 as it would prevent the shorts from playing their game for a day. They aren't going to allow that to happen. They can't allow it to drop more than 10% at any time during the day.
Agreed! They also mention several doctor names in their press release about the Knoxville deal. In fact, they mentioned the name of the company which I verified exists. I'm not worried about things within the company. Just trying to overcome the sideways trading. Two solid theories exist. Both should play out next week with the following week being our week to rebound.
I am going to go out on a limb and predict a turnaround come late Wednesday or Thursday.
Technically... if you look at afterhours we broke even... so it wasn't really a BAD day. The shorter was able to increase their shorter. We technically had more buys than sells... and we broke even. That isn't really bad. It is just a sideways move. It could have dropped MUCH further with profit taking from yesterday.
ANOTHER BUY after the close! Really can't say what is happening but we're going to start up on Monday. That's always a good thing. The shorters must be covering. This is two days in a row now. Can anyone else see how many shares it was on the last buy? I'm not able to see it. Hopefully it was another large one.
Alright, I want all of you to understand how shorting works and what the limitations are for the shorter. Read through this and you're going to quickly see how a shorting situation can be resolved. In other words... I have a game plan! The shorter cannot short after a stock drops 10% or more on the previous day. So, if a stock drops 10% Monday, shorts stop for the day AND they cannot be shorted the following day. This means they can only bring it down so much before the potentially eff themselves harder. If they let it drop and then we rally the next day... they are super screwed as they may be forced to cover in a squeeze.
Now the ONLY way that they can short is if someone BEATS the last highest bid of the previous day. SO, if the last highest bid was 1 million shares at $1.50 then they wouldn't be able to short because they aren't going to try and beat that. And I don't think they can beat it themselves. SO... with that said... I think and I may be wrong in this... if we put high bids that are AON for an order of say 100 million which can't be filled for obvious reasons we could kill all shorting. There are major flaws in my plan however... cost... hahaha... although it can't fill you have to have the money there to do it. The other problem is that if you do one high enough that it does fill... well... it fills... so with that said and what you will read below... start thinking.
Q: What’s new about what the SEC approved Wednesday?
A: There are a couple new elements to the rules. One element is essentially an updated version of the uptick rule. The second is a new “circuit breaker” component.
Q: Whoa, I’m already lost. What’s the uptick rule, again?
A: This was a rule — created during the Great Depression — that said traders could only sell a stock short after it rises, i.e. an uptick. The rule was abolished in July 2007. But as the markets tumbled in 2008, there was a general clamor to bring back the uptick rule. The SEC wrote up some proposed rules, asked for comments about it and after reviewing them voted on the new rules today.
Q: Ok, so what’s different about the new uptick rule versus the old uptick rule.
A: Under the old rule, you could short sell at a price above the last trade price, or after the last price was higher than the previous price. Under the new rule, you wouldn’t be able short unless someone was willing to buy it for more than the national best bid. (That is, for a higher price than anyone is currently offering to pay.)
Q: It seems like it’d be hard to find someone willing to pay more for a stock than they have to.
A: It probably would be. That’s the idea. This is supposed to be a curb on shorting.
Q: What’s the advantage of using the best bid versus the last uptick?
A: The SEC says “among other reasons, we believe that bids generally are a more accurate reflection of current prices for a security than last sale prices due to delays that can occur in the reporting of last sale price information and the manner in which last sale price information is published to the markets.”
Q: Ok, got it. Can’t short unless you can get someone to pay more than the current best bid for the stock.
A: That’s only part of it. The second part is “circuit breaker” element.
Q: Oh yeah. What’s that?
A: That part of the rule says that the shorting curbs come in when a stock’s price falls 10% from the previous day’s close.
Q: For how long?
A: For the entire day in which the shares fell below 10 percent and for the following day.
Q: How many stocks is this going to effect?
A: The rule will apply to stocks that are listed on exchanges and traded over the counter. The SEC estimates that about 1.3% of stocks would hit that 10% barrier on any given day, according to Dow Jones. Of course that would likely go up during times of major market stress and volatility, such as the kind we’ve seen over the last couple years.
Well damnit... there goes my $40 profit that I had!
OMG look at these bastards... they are bumping it back up so that they can play it short again Monday... hahaha... awesome! Notice the small buys 1,500 to bump it back up. I bet we'll see another large buy this afternoon.
Smart! I think you may have it. But this scenario sucks because that means we may have another week of this. Those shares would be released through these large brokers so I'd imagine knocking the price down would give them a good opportunity to pick them up super cheap. Bottom line... they are playing this stock for a reason. MMs don't mess with a dead end company. It is just too risky.
AND another thought... can't you only play a short during an even day or an uptrend? If so, they are going to have to play it even or up every other day to continually play it short.
By create shorts they really made investing a game of strategy. ;0
He talked to me in pretty solid detail yesterday about the stock activity. He is watching the L2. He knows what is going on. He did seem pretty confident that it would come to an abrupt end. This leads me to believe that he knows something we don't in regards to the situation. If so, I am fine with normal trading again. Sideways trading is retarded! ;0
You have to factor in the others that would have actually shorted this. If you factor those in then we may have another couple of days of this. I doubt many people are shorting this position with it so low already but who knows. So worst case scenario I would say it should be resolved say next Wednesday or Thursday. ASSUMING THAT YOUR SCENARIO IS CORRECT.
If my scenario holds true... they are super effed as it is. If they continue adding shorts at this rate they will have shorted the entire float within 2 weeks. That would create a very unreal situation where the price could soar to 52 week high in a day as they are forced to cover that many shares. I'm curious to see how that would play out so I hope my scenario is correct. ;0
Once they hit float it has no choice but to go up. But if they were to hit float they would be so deep in this stock that they would have to buy A LOT of shares. If they were to buy 47 million shares or hell just the 22 million back... this stock would sail past .10 and then some. 22 million shares would be like 15-20% of the total shares. That would be an insane squeeze. We would wake up and be incredibly confused by it.
Either you are right or my assumption is right both are favorable for the stock. I honestly think you may be right in this. Brian did say that he had a feeling today may start to change things. This makes me believe that he knew there were shares that still needed to be sold through and once done the stock would rebound.
But why would they show as shorts? That is what I don't get. So maybe my assumption is correct and that would be even better. ;0
Hahaha! What? 22 million? That is insane!!!
Lets do the math:
80 million : Brian Sperber
20 million : reserved (double check this)
That means of the 75 million shares potentially available 22 million of them are borrowed. They can't short much further before all the shares are held firmly. There's no way! I'm definitely holding now. This is going to be beautiful. It may take a bit of time. But they are going to slam into a wall. They may already have which is the reason for the desperation.
Yep! All in time. They need us to sell. When they realize that they hit a point where nobody is selling they are going to raise their bid until someone bites. Once they buy they raise the price more and hopefully the ask will go up again... and we force them to cover their shorts. But we need them in a corner first. So we let them ping down numerous times adding a bigger short position and we ping back up much higher every couple hours. They increase their short which increases the power of the rebound. We get to have fun pissing off the MMs.
We have been doing this periodically to jump it back up. We ultimately want the MMs to continue their shorting. This is what will make the stock skyrocket once it starts going back up. They are going to have to cover their ass.
They aren't going to do that just before an acquisition as they need the money for it. The key is patience. The stock needs time to run through this and once it does it is going to come out a MUCH better stock.
I almost find these short reports amusing. The higher they are the better position that gives all of us. Many of you don't realize this but the more they short, the more this stock will go up when it does go up. As long as the stock is gaining ground in dollars we really don't have anything to worry about.
Keep in mind also that they are aware of incoming news. So once they get to a comfortable position they are going to buy in for a price jump at the news.
