$ABRW BOOM!! GREEN is My new Favorite Color. 5 $digit$ day for my holding... let's see what next week brings
Haven't traded in years. Does Company have shares to sell?? an ATM or Shelf or something? I remember this being a big issue on previous pops. But this was like 2 years ago. i.e. they (MD + financeir) sold the crap out of it and drove the Share Price done.
I'm genuinely interested, so thanks for the heads up.
good luck to longs!
Insider Selling shares. Form4 Filed http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/858339/000085833916000230/xslF345X03/wf-form4_145696829612778.xml
never a good sign. IMO
I don't like to buy when people on the inside are selling, for whatever reason
loaded up at close on Friday $5.33
made really good money trading it on the pops in $6s....
everyone needs love, so lets give the shorts a good squeeze ;)
-well that's what i'm hoping
gamble on increased visibility after TV show.
Did anyone watch it, was it good???
Trading at .012 today = Worthless.
Knock-Knock, who's there? "Li Zhongchu". Why did you buy 50% of EFUT? no answer yet.
Net Worth $4Billion. made all his money on Online Portal, Ecommerce type stuff.
He's up to something. for sure
Oh Boy..have the pumpers dumped already?
dreading a random email from JBem about this one didn't quite work out as well as he'd hoped and he sold in the 1.60s for a loss.
just the way it goes.
Yikes.
Hoping I eat the above words. which I will gladly do when I'm very green
don't know that.. just speculating that they must be doing something with the large amount of money they just cashed in on. Why take it all at once?? MBLX have never struck me as a greedy, take the money and run company. To the contrary they have been extremely prudent since the break with ADM.
I'm hoping that it's a JV with someone who has a production facility or a deal that's in the works that will require them to deliver on product.
It just seems obvious to me something is going on. ASPIRE (if you look at their company profile) don't just jump in feet first. They analyze the business to see what the needs are and if related to essential business growth to get a near enough sure thing to market and/or the need to deliver on existing contracts.... well those are the investments they go after.
Fingers crossed they went into MBLX and it was a no-brainer to buy the over 5M Shares shares that they did at current market Value = 2.79 on the day.
*For Certain Aspire appear to be a conservative, risk adverse Investment fund. I get confidence out of this as well as the terms of the agreement.
All my posts on this board obviously come with a big Caveat Emptor. Just my opinions! and not to be construed as investment advice
As we know anything is possible when investing in a company at this stage of their development and growth..
man. chill out. I never slandered. to the contrary if you read my posts in full rather than going Red Mist on one or two comments within you'll see said I've found his track record an DD good.
..actually salgo needs the chill pill. your post was less emotional..
just when I saw a post here saying all he touches turns to gold.. for the sake of those who don't know about the pick carefully left out of the post; it was worth to point out SNGX.
why would you guys leave out his full recent track record, unless the intent is only to Pump, Pump it up?
Is the full story allowed to be told... or it 100% positive & praise or go away only??
caveat emptor
"the trend is your friend, until it bends" as a famous trader once put it"
good luck to us. I'm in MEIP. was in SNGX (-$7,000K when I finally exited around 1.40s from 2.10) as well as AVXL (+$) and PTBI (+$)
touch a nerve? why don't you dig deep enough to see that MEIP is a position that one of his good friends was very stuck in. as was the other dud.
I'm just waiting for BIAD to be a pick in the next 6 months to complete the circle.
Hey. he's good.. he's a great stock picker and researcher. but I'm not naive enough to realize that as he get's bigger favours will be had.
disclosure: I own around 4K shares of MEIP LONG. not much, but enough.
Let's not Forget SNGX which he and his cronies front loaded to the turn of $1M+ and sold into the droves of minions who piled in.
Let's see. 2.5 months later and it's 50% down from his call.
hopefully MEIP is not going to be one of his duds.
*one of the saving graces for me here, is that I doubt they front loaded MEIP (which if you look at the volume leading up to his call... erry They did) for the sake of the .10 to .20 it popped.
I suspect a few of his inner-circle did sell once it got to 1.94
Disclosure: not bitter or surprised by the above. but also not naive to the way these things work.
been adding on every pullback under 2.60 Gonna Pop and pop big if any Real News comes out about a deal in the works.
MBLX uses full $20Million Facility in first week!
can only speculate what for, but one thing is for certain... don't look like it's for standard daily operating costs!
MGT = SCAM going to .01 & then less.
at least it should. but as we all know some Spin will be put on to create a pump so that they can raise some more money for salaries and Holidays in 2016.. maybe a car or two also
Started re-adding position last few weeks. up to 1/2 hoping stays weak long enough to get back up to full. without having to ASK slap.
in my view next run in 30 - 40 days max.
Keep wanting to buy BUT hate catching falling knives...
what is the deal here? Company went from prolific flow of information to dark cave silence.

Honeywell & Metabolix 2015 Partnership Info
more info I see missing from posts on this board.
This is from Last March but in my opinion we are due to be hearing an update on this by year end.
http://www.thestreet.com/story/13065594/1/metabolix-mblx-stock-is-up-today-on-honeywell-partnership.html

6 for 1 Reverse Split May, 2015
As I've just become moderator of this board. I thought I'd do some house-cleaning and updating of info for any new people that come by.
Back in May, a couple months after announcing the Honeywell partnership Metabolix had a reverse stock split.
http://ir.metabolix.com/releasedetail.cfm?ReleaseID=914889
here's a little article which will basically give the reasoning behind the split. In My Opinion Metabolix doing a lot of Housekeeping in 2015 giving themselves a super solid base to launch their business from
sorting out the listing issues and stock price is one of those.
http://www.bonnerandpartners.com/a-quick-note-about-metabolix/
New HOD $2.18 from $1.50 yesterday! weee.
Worth Note: When the price originally dropped below $2 and thereafter, volume was consistently v.low = not a ton of people with cheap shares they'll be trading quickly for profit.
Could hold this $2+ level nicely. personally I don't intend to sell a share until we hear more news on what's going on with Honeywell.
That is what all this is about,right? Employing new people, Raising $20M...
next just need to hear about a production facility and then we are off to the races.
Nice pop to $2.10! this chapter of the story is only just beginning. IMO
MBLX = Disruptive technology... Love it. have been accumulating shares down here in the $1.50s range for last week+
If they mention Honeywell again KABOOM.
could this $20M be related to ramping up on product?
Disclosure: LONG
My Price Targat: $3.00 - $4.50 within 6 months on good news. No news and it sits under $2
MBLX receives $20M Investment http://ir.metabolix.com/releasedetail.cfm?ReleaseID=935645
$ATNM - question for BB?
as per your comment: the big move for 5 minutes then huge selling pressure, plus a look at the one year chart... just gives me impression there is at least one very big seller pouncing on every pop.
thoughts?
disclosure: long ATNM. sold a bit at 2.48 today and still holding 10K shares... looking for a good EOD indicator here from 2.17.
not about to ride them back down...
Goal when LONG = buy low / sell high, right?
What's the harm in following up a doom and gloom post at .5112 or so with a "great trading opportunity" post when it hit .67 two days later ??
Was it that painful and annoying to see such an % increase in Portfolio Value??
a wild & crazy suggestion: If investing / having a stake in ITKG is bringing that much frustration and angst into ones life, why do it then? Life is too short. IMO
this my last post for a while. I'll be back when it's back to my first .268 Buy to say "Dang! WTF!!??"
or when it's $1+ to say WWWWEeeeeee.
Either could Hypothetically happen!!!
RE: "What STUFF are you hearing in the industry"
I'll give you my approach as maybe it will help you in the future to do your own DD. The tone of the messages I’m getting here really motivate me 0% to share any of my DD.
So, here you go - I listen, read between lines and do research. Because I’ve owned an international head-hunting firm for 16 years, I've learned focus on People behind the scenes.. Not on company disclosures, investor targeted PR, Pumps etc. but rather on never or rarely approached industry employees.
You can do much better when you put your mind to it.. and I will say my research project was based on a more targeted search string with more commercial profiles. Commercial People like Product Managers and Account Manager are far more talkative.. but here’s a very simple search to start from
https://www.linkedin.com/vsearch/p?keywords=Plastics%20conductivity&company=BASF&openAdvancedForm=true&companyScope=CP&locationType=Y&rsid=20951121437126053581&orig=MDYS&page_num=1&pt=people&openFacets=N,G,CC
You will need to work on your ‘story’ or your direct approach will be ignored.
For me it was easy as of coincidence I work directly with the two most promising Electric bus & Electric Bus conversion companies in the UK/Europe ; )...
Good luck!
Disclosure: ITKG is my 2nd largest position in my portfolio of 18 positions. That's how good I feel about a probably of a strong positive outcome. Having said that, I've got it wrong enough times before! Hence why I hedge my position by Trading pops along the way. Do you own DD and make your own trading decisions!
somewhat reluctantly sold the shares I bought last few days at .67 from .56 and under. Still holding core.
maybe get one more chance to pick them up. maybe not.
almost there, guys.
someone is accumulating today that's for sure.
feeling a bit left out. Just stuck order in at .515 if I get lucky enough for it to fill.
if anyone want's to panic sell into it.. it's there. Not much. only 5K shares.
Maybe I used that term a little loosely. but fact remains I added on that day and again today. if it drops to around .54 I'm going to add again.
end of the day ITKG represents somewhere around 15% of my port, so not taking a life changing risk. IT's big, yes. and if it weren't for the stuff I'm hearing in the industry; I'd never go so big into a position which has been a dog for near enough Decades.
I'll be happy to do a print screen of those purchases in exchange for the same from you as to where you are short from?
I'm genuinely curious if you actually have a position here, or just for some reason so negative about ITKG that you feel the need to hang out and proclaim it to all?
at any rate, it's always good to hear all sides of the story, substantiated or not, it's our job to do our own DD and make our own trades
good luck to all. Win, Lose or Draw
Added .58 today. slowly building back up to full position.
Can't paint with such a broad stroke, marsred.
ITKG is not a stock promotion shell company. IT's a real company with real operations and real employees out there trying to make a significant impact on the market for themselves, the company, shareholders and clients they work with.
numerous examples over the past 2 decades of companies like Integral who find their way and go from pennies ( much lower than I've ever seen the share price here ) to double digits and much higher exist.
prior to these catalyst moments, naysayers, negativos, randoms that walk by with no invested interest preach their wares in abundance.
sure it's a risk, but for most I would hope a calculated risk and not some blind punt on dreams of finally finding a 10 bagger to reverse all their previous bad decisions.
for myself I know enough about this story and have done my own style of DD to feel 75% confident that there is something going on behind the scenes here. My PT? not much more than a 2x, 3x from here.
75% confident still leaves enough risk to warrant prudence, but when you put together a portfolio of 15 - 20 positions which you can put your trust in your own DD that there is a 65%+ probability of break-out potential... well, my friend.. you experience stronger than avg success year on year. sure there are a few dudds that sit there for long enough or worse; you give up on when a higher probability presents itself.
I'm not ready to give up ITKG yet, started loading up at .268 and bought more yesterday! If I lost the entire investment it would only constitute 13% of my portfolio at the moment which admittingly is a little high but would still represent more of a learning experience than some deep impact on my life.
anything can happen, of course and my path and opinions are solely for the purpose an anecdote on this story and not to construed as anything else.
regardless of what any random, or regular on this board says: No long term holder right now is about to do anything other than Hold and wait for pending developments. Good luck to them and good luck to me.
I'll take Luck at any opportunity it presents itself! :)
I have many 10s of 1000s invested in this at the moment with a view of significant news pending. Sure certain announcements that attract some short term interest represent small trading opportunities..
Based on my DD, I beleive there is a high probabability and I'm anticipating a significant return on investment leading up to, just before, or immediately following August Summer Holidays.
Good luck to all of us who have a stake in this.
Added back at .65 from .74 back up to full again. as with every position still keeping 15% as traders, but unsure if I'll risk selling ITKG on next pop over .72
the time is nearing for $1+. imo
no near immediate catalyst I can see.
I was in this last fall for a few trades. Lost on my last!
gets interesting down here. I'm an avid surfer,snowboarder and see too much business at the stores I know to believe that this brand is going down.Here in France, for instance, where I am now.... stores are always full and their product line is pretty good.
then again... reading the latest analyst headlines and company news makes significantly grim reading. and any prospect 'BK' is scary enough to spread fear in shareholders.
I'm going to be watching closely from here and will try and pick a bottom to bounce off of. this thing owes me over $2K
future guidance is sweet for current shorts and music to the ears of someone looking for a good discount over the next few weeks. IMO
cool. thanks was curious. I know there is emerging tech companies who offer close up surveillance photos/video from Satellites. thought this could be a good way to monitor progress and or actual trucks moving material.
I was in this a couple years ago and barring some tangible evidence to allay concerns that there really is nothing more than pure hype going on here.. reluctant to buy, even at these traditionally low prices
for the years many have been on board, has anyone here actually got on an airplane and flown down to check out the legitimacy ( OR NOT ) of operations in Chile??
or has it just been total faith in the PR's, marketing blah, blah... arguably lies after lies spewn out of this machine??
seems like would be worth the trip after years invested
ZAZA. what's there to like about it?
insiders dumping shares
board is approving more dilution as they are losing tons of money and can't cover running costs
I'm sure there's more
