So is money to spare that's not needed for other things. BCLI strikes me as incredibly undervalued for reasons I can't begin to fathom. Working alongside the Mayo Clinic is a major validation of this company's promise. As a stockholder in CUR, I'm excited to see how these two "sister companies" manage to operate in the same areas yet incorporate very different approaches.
These are two very exciting companies in which to be involved. The upside potential is unthinkably large.
My thoughts and/or opinions only in the above.
Would ERBB be more acceptably transparent if fully reporting to the SEC? Or are you thinking ERBB is better off operating under the SEC's radar?
Thanks for your guidance.
Can you explain what is meant by "pre-order?" Is this an iron clad contract being referenced? And if so, what makes it a "pre" order?
Below is a paste of an extract from the PR from ERBB:
"...and its American Green Division are excited to announce that a pre-order of 100 Jurassic Water units has arrived from its strategic marketing partner, iMD Corp (OTC Pink: ICBU) (PINKSHEETS: ICBU) (http://www.bloomberg.com/quote/ICBU:US). To facilitate the fulfilment of this order, valued at $1,700,000.00, and others expected soon, the company also announced today that Michael Silvia has joined the American Green staff to extend sales and management of the division.

Thanks to you guys for your help.
ERBB has been doing impressive things for some time now. What, in your opinion, may explain our extremely low share price?
Thank you for your opinions.
ERBB could always initiate follow-on offerings/placements, all of which would have a diluent effect as the body of authorized shares would increase. Unless there's cash flow and enough to stem the cash burn outflow, placements and offerings will be necessary if only to allow the company to continue.
You're right about the drop in share price not being directly connected to dilution. However, small companies often have to arrange equity sales regardless of how the market values shares unless, of course, cash flow can offset operational needs.
My thoughts only.
What does ELAS refer to?
TIA
You are absolutely right.
When a publicly traded company sells shares for ANY reason. it increases the float and is, in fact, dilution. However, if ERBB is selling shares for the sake of meeting expenses, it is absolutely essential. Shares represent pieces of the whole and should not necessarily be regarded as selling out.
My opinions only!
Excellent report! Thank you. I listened to the interview as well. Things appear to be building steam in a calm and rational manner. Looking forward with everyone else to the big reveal when Tony finally pulls the covers off and shows us what he's been up to.
My opinions only herein.
Daily I'm visiting Amazon.com to see if any changes have transpired. This is what I found this morning at 10:15am (C):
Weistek WT150 Mini IdeaWerk Fully Assembled 3D Printer, 180-Microns, White

Currently unavailable.
We don't know when or if this item will be back in stock.
**************************************************************
I need to see transactions executing. Otherwise there's little point in remaining invested in PUGE. As I recall, projected receipt of some machines being shipped to Amazon is expected on the 15th of this month, less than a week away. I can hold out that long,
My opinions only.
I'm thinking this will take off once the recidivism number comes out after a number of clinics have been open and are willing to release their productivity numbers. It's a spectacular product, nobody is refuting that fact. As for the catalyst?
My guess is that the stock will rise when a substantial number of clients start spreading the word that this is the greatest thing to improve their lives ever.
My opinion only.
Today's PR acknowledges there is a relationship with Amazon. Yesterday it was clear that our 3-D printer has been an offering there in the past but the company says none are in stock and no delivery date can be offered. I hope this will soon change.
PUGE says much more about Amazon's credibility than its own. I hope that doesn't scare investors off.
It is also clear that there are numerous alternatives to our machine and surprisingly, some at barely half the price of ours. That doesn't address differences in quality or usefulness.
My opinions only.
That's an excellent question. My thinking is that these vape pens may be part of a design to dispense MJ derived products and USEI might become a dispenser of those items. I say this because I believe it is reasonable to expect big tobacco to be majorly involved in MJ from the smoking side, and that it's just a matter of time--- that plus additional social acceptance without unwanted government pressures being brought to bear.
Perhaps others here can shed more light? I hope so!
My opinions herein.
Great point! And my impression is that it (the PR) will identify not just initiatives now launching but also information as to the partners, if not just associated applications.
This is good stuff, imho.
There's a lot more to the interview than facts that could be disclosed in a PR. There's CEO Tony's calm demeanor, his always searching for the best wording to help the listener grasp more fully what he has in mind. His intelligence rings through, too.
An hour of listening to the CEO of a company in which I'm invested is worth every dollar invested, I think.
My opinions only!
Just got to listen to the interview. Thank you for furnishing the link!
Lots of good stuff here, interesting and full of answers to important questions.
I'm excited!
Your guidance regarding my handling my ERBB position is appreciated, Dad. But gee, after 73 years, don't you think your love is stretching it a bit?
This stock will do its thing and it will gain favor among investors as befits its actions. And it will do so without you who speak to doom and gloom.
My opinions only.
You see that possibility as funny?
He may have a number of items on his platter. It's not unusual for someone to be involved with more than one company although I have to wonder how important Freedom Energy Holdings is to him.
My opinions only.
Thanks!
One of the things I find a bit disturbing is how we bring so much pressure onto CEO Tony's shoulders by constantly demanding he pen PRs to pick up the share price. It is so unreasonable to hold him directly responsible for day-to-day price fluctuations. In the very long term, the whole company must be responsible for progress achieved and the share price will always reflect that success.
But hold on there! PRs don't make the company. They may shore up the share price for a few hours or maybe a day, but you know what? Traded stocks aren't where the value is! It's the company that has value and its stock is merely the vehicle leading towards corporate ownership. In USEI I see a company representing value on a tentative basis. I can't look at products available for sale nor can I see marketing outlets. So what CAN we see?
Well, we can see a CEO who is very hard working. He comes across as a thoughtful individual in interviews. He appears calm and I don't doubt that he's got a lot of his own skin in this company. And the financials are now available. That said, I'm thinking we're all waiting for his next PR but what's really important is what will be in the PR.
PR's are meant to communicate news of corporate progress. We look for ways to appreciate forward motion while soft pedaling negatives. A responsible CEO will not hide from mistakes or undesirable consequences stemming from corporate actions. That honesty will endear him to his supporters.
The next PR must introduce us to meaningful developments or, at the very least, failed attempts with some repairs in mind to get us back on track. PRs don't create value! Positive cash flow is the only thing that will account for a company's stock value. There is no substitute for cash flow as it represents the value investors are placing on the company's stock.
I wish we could all see that we need this company to become an earnings monster. That's certainly what I want. PRs won't change anything because they're not more than attempts to communicate. It's the stuff that's in them that has value. And if the news is positive, then we will feel a lot better about things.
My opinions only in the above comments.
Not unless you feel the urge and can't get there in time.
Kidding aside, I sure hope the shorts are on the run. Heck, I wouldn't mind if they GOT the runs when the next installment of corporate action is disclosed. And in their shorts!
My opinion only. And just in fun.
87 @ Ameritrade.
Thanks for the elucidation. Excellent for the much needed lift today.
Current how? Electrically as in lighting fixtures?
Waterly as in Jurassic systems?
Just joking---would like to understand your reference.
Thanks.
Without even reading posts following yours asking if he's shorting, I can tell you that in my opinion he's asking the right questions. I thought I knew most of what USEI assets were before I began accumulating my position. When the PR came out, I was surprised to hear of lighting technologies. I wasn't aware of there being a patent portfolio, save for the biodiesel formula.
I hope we can employ civility here as we sift though some questionable items. It might actually make us stronger in analysis and ultimately enriching us financially. I sure hope so!
My opinions only.
Not wishing to put out your fire as I love your passion! But anybody can rent a kitchen with a few appliances in it---and cheaply. And I'm not aware of USEI being gifted as chef and baker but perhaps you know more than I on this? My original take was that Tony was expecting to sign agreements with fully functioning businesses already engaged in the production and marketing of products holding common interest.
I guess I'm just not convinced that Tony envisions our getting flour and pot under our fingernails, working in a kitchen.
My opinions above.
No way to know what happened but today's close merely brought the share price back to where it was a few days ago. And keep in mind that today's market was really terrible! The DOW Industrials closed down 129.53. That is very unusual for it's such a large drop.
All stocks move up and down daily. It's how the market works and you'll get used to it. Keep your eyes on the things that pushed you to buy into the company and stay strong until you no longer think you'd be a buyer today at the right price.
My opinion only!
Thank you for clarifying things. I always make a point of rereading my posts carefully as I wouldn't want to endanger ERBB or anyone here.
I appreciate that you want to see this succeed, I never doubted that.
My opinions only.
What tells you that money will come?
When the deal to operate the clinicals under the sponsorship of no less than the great Mayo Clinic, I really thought I'd soon be solidly in the black. Instead I'm $82.50 in the hole! lol I think I can manage it.
I'm surprised we're not much higher, though. If CUR can operate in the mid $3 to high $4, then BCLI ought to as well. Progress has been excellent thus far and I'm extremely hopeful that we're going to break some records soon enough.
My opinion only in the commentary above.
I certainly agree and am surprised we didn't do better today. Then, too, we had a fantastic day on Friday so maybe this is simply a moment of digestion. Burppp!!!
The Amazon arrangement may be a great opportunity for us---but only provided that we can come up with the machines in reasonable enough time for our contract as a provider/vender with Amazon to remain intact. I cannot imagine that customers won't step up to the plate in a quest to cop a $999 3-D printer. It's crazy cheap, I think. and Amazon is great when it comes to rectifying issues surrounding purchases not living up to the hype. That suggests to me that there's room for folks to buy the printer and return it if dissatisfied.
I was under the impression that we are the primary marketer of the unit but found I was wrong when rereading this morning. According to the PR out of PUGE, we own the subsidiary outright. That doesn't necessarily mean that the company is capable of meeting high demand for its units. Nor should it imply that PUGE, the parent company, is in financial position to keep all critical wheels greased as necessary. And these units may not be manufactured by our subsidiary if I'm reading this right---units could be manufactured in China and collected by our sub for distribution here in the states.
So I'm a bit leery but hopeful, too. And I've got a slight gain so far, so no complaints here! The best of good fortune to all here!
My opinions only in the above commentary.
Your post appears here:
Certain things have been talked about in private convo with erbb and is confidential so can't post emails on share buy backs but you can email errb and they will respond in a day or two like they did with me and answer you! you will like the answer
Are you really saying this wasn't designed to make it appear you are privy to insider information? Surely you understand that your comment above could lead to the destruction of our company if found to be true, isn't that correct?
We need to protect our investments more carefully than this.
My opinions in the above referenced matter.
It is against the law (SEC) to divulge information regarding ERBB that is not disseminated to a broadly based public audience. ERBB's doors could be closed permanently for sharing information with you on a unique basis.
I don't believe they could be so stupid as to tell you things that have not been told to all of us on Wall Street and beyond.
My background is Investor Relations. I'm reading through your comments.
My opinions only in the above commentary.
I feel pretty much as do you. Too, I don't care if the CEO is religious or not as it won't impact on how I operate.
As for MJ and religion? Seems to me that if MJ is approved for medical use, then it's for the welfare of those who would stand to benefit. I know of no religion opposed to helping people. This is not to suggest that our CEO is to be trusted for I don't know that. But I have to assume he is in this to make money. And within that window lies an opportunity for us to hang onto his coattails and do the same.
All in my opinion only.
PS. I like much of what you have to say! Reasonable, fair and to the point without trying to push others around. Good!
Your prediction of ten cents wouldn't change my life but it would certainly add nearly a third of a million dollars to my charitable trust. That would really delight me. I hope you're right.
Then again, we're on the same page or I'd not be here in the first place. Our CEO is moving carefully but stealthily in my opinion. I think a spot in MJ Heaven is probably assured with deals such as the collaboration with ERBB demonstrate. "United we stand." is a line that comes to mind.
I think another line might be even more appropriate:
"Don't fire until you see the red in their stoned eyes."
Yeah, right!
All in fun and opinion, guys.
Let's not forget to recognize that ERBB has seen fit to enter into a collaboration with us! That tells me that ERBB sees value in our company despite all the free press garnered of late.
Pretty damned neat if you ask me!
My opinions only in the above.
Forgot to mention it in my previous post:
Unable to view SEC files for the poop on opportunities to resell the oil extracted from shingles. Also---the emulsification process incorporating an emulsifier.
My background is that of Investor Relations work for energy companies. I am an energy trader. Most chemicals approved by our US government for oil field emulsification used in-hole, to reinvigorate casing to increase flow through the removal of waxes accumulated due to hydrocarbon extraction---are Xylene based. Two years ago this product was formally banned. I know of two products able to get the job done but FDMF's is not one of them.
When I think about the processing that would/could yield a usable product from shingles, I have to wonder about the costs of collecting the old shingles, transporting to a processing plant, paying for plant time, marketing and incredibly expensive insurances due to the obvious hazards part of this endeavor and this is not a business that can be run by an individual who sits behind a desk.
I don't know what to believe. Can you help me by providing factual evidence supporting tis company's validity?
I'm not addressing the MJ side because I don't see one. This is so because I don't know what we bring of value to the emerging decriminalization process or the exploitation of MJ.
All in my opinion, only.
I'm a shareholder in this pick.
Not understanding what each company offers the other. It's looking to me like we are handing them some cash and grabbing an equity position in the other company.
It also strikes me that FDMF might be trying to cop some glory by creating the impression that the company is entering the cannabis arena because it's growing immensely popular at the moment.
I hope my suspicions are unfounded. These are my opinions, only.
What price did we pay to own a piece of Canna Security? Without knowing this, I don't see a way to establish value from the association.
You're largely right wen it comes to market makers doing only as folks tell them to. There's a caveat, however, for they are not as controlled as one would think and are thus free to accumulate or unload as they see fit. This has them able to manipulate our USEI market.
I know a market maker personally and he's plugged into the sticker's transfer agent and is able to observe my trades. Had the nerve to email me, complaining that I'd unloaded a lot of shares in a company he touts.
My opinion only.
Always nice to see a fave pick of ours (USEI) attracting new blood. I hope you do well and enjoy the sharing of ideas! You obviously have some good things to say as you already have a bunch of followers.
