Don't think so but there is Plasmo which is working with EOS and EOS has their own thing called EOSTATE. Then there's also Protolabs which is an established company. I don't think either of these are IPQA but they're in the space. There's also 3DSIM which is a much younger startup. These are just some of the names that have been tossed around over the past several months and have been quickly discarded as being sincere competition for Sigma.
Those that were questioniong whether or not they bought the printer were being silly geese.
Supposedly if they didn't buy it then it would show strength, now since they did buy it, it shows strength for difefrent reasons. I think it's great that they dilluted further for another 500k.
Hopefully I'm not the only one that sees the absurdity in this type of thinking.
I'm going to sit back and hate the ride, hoping for the best.
They can't do that with a single printer. They can't do a lot of this with only a handful of employees.
Cool, best of luck. Don't let your eyes get bigger than your head and play with money you can afford to lose.
Aside from that, let it ride.
To answer your other question if you sell but keep it in your brokerage account then you are still taxed. My advice is to sell when you want to sell. Don't let an extra 10% in taxes be the deciding factor.
Capital Gains tax rates vary depending on whether the gains are short-term or long-term.
Short-term gains taxed at ordinary income tax rates.
Long-term gains and qualified dividends taxed at:
0% if taxable income falls in the 10% or 15% marginal tax brackets
15% if taxable income falls in the 25%, 28%, 33%, or 35% marginal tax brackets
20% if taxable income falls in the 39.6% marginal tax bracket
25% on Depreciation Recapture
28% on Collectibles
28% on qualified small business stock after exclusion
--
Short term is less than one year and taxed as income. See above for long term rules. Long term will be 15% for most people.
No, bad publicity is not good.
What exactly are you expecting?
Seems like a Who's Who directory and the information isn't up to date. Unless there's something I'm missing, I'm more excited about my belly button lint.
Sorry, what's the point?
In that 15 years of OTC experience, how does SGLB stack up? What differentiates it from the other pennies?
Even if it's a rehash of what I/we know, I'd like to hear your thoughts.
Thanks
It'll retrace eventually. It always does. IMO IMHO JMO JMHO AJMHO.
Oh noes! What happened to the GE -- EOS -- Materialise -- SGLB connection? It jst got blasted out of the water.
At least we have GE.
Nobody knows and if someone tells you that they do then they're lying.
500k per unit as far as we know. Not confirmed though.
Home Depot as well I think.
Text? I'm not subscribing.
Sorta true. There's a way to tweet the iHub posts. So it's the same shit.
It's a new twitter handle as well with only 4 posts, hmmmmm!!!
I don't know what that means since I'm a twit, but let me take a stab at speculating.
Maybe it means that the big MMs are out and now this will start to react more naturally wrt market conditions and company performance?
It's a shame we don't have any revenues yet.
See http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=99302629
If you're bullish on the stock I suggest reading silversmith's posts, they're typically very grounded and well reasoned.
The above link were his/her napkin numbers.
You're welcome.
$42.17 or $42.23, depends on how many we sell.
I've been trading for two years and I think being completely ignorant actually helps me. I won't sell because I don't know any better and I believe in the company.
Ignorance is bliss so I'm a very happy man. Very happy.
He also likes parks Kanye, so it's a win.
Yeah that's no good. At least we're not prank calling him:
*ring ring*
Greg: Helloooooo!
Mysterious caller: is your refridgerator running?
Greg: why yes it is!
Mysterious caller; SGLB!
*click*

Monkeybutt: Hi, I'm wondering what you might be doing to address the challenges of in process quality assurance?
Greg Morris: So that's a great question. So I believe there was an announcement in the public domain a while back where we have teamed up with a company called Beyond 6 Sigma and working with some of their technology and we're working with them and some others to try and develop that in process quality monitoring and assurance. So that's a really interesting aspect of the technology. I mean for the first time we have the ability to monitor every voxel of what we're producing. That means we can monitor the atmosphere and weld pool. We can monitor every layer and that's a tremendous tool, very powerful. The question becomes what do you do with that data? And of course we would be collecting tremendous amounts of data. So what do you do with the data and how do you get real feedback loop so that you can correct on the fly as you're building? We don't have the perfect solution worked out yet. We're still working with a variety of different companies, national labs and universities to figure out what is the best solution. The future certainly holds the ability to monitor the process, monitor the quality as we build. Doesn't eliminate backend NDT but it certainly is a tremendous advantage to be able to see what is going on at every moment of your part making as you build your geometry.
He mentioned it during the presentation when monkeybutt asked him. I transcribed it in an earlier post.
Does it!?!? Does it really!?!?
OK, I perused the b6sigma site and couldn't find it so I guess it was just in my pea brain.
I'm considerably less excited about the company now.
Good to know they're still in bed with GE.
My point is it should be there now. I thought it was there now. I'm pretty sure it's touted as being available now and it's a key part of what sets IPQA apart from other QA.
I'll do a bit more reading and confirm my suspicions.
Sorry, I disagree on #3. I'll have to read through the QA with Vivek and also look at our former blogger's blog but my understanding was correcting things on the fly was part of the product.
He said:
"So what do you do with the data and how do you get real feedback loop so that you can correct on the fly as you're building? We don't have the perfect solution worked out yet. "
This defines us, doesn't it? What am I missing? We are supposed to be that perfect solution.
Here's the transcript of the question and answer. I only have one small problem with it. Greg said they need to figure out how to get feedback and correct things on the fly. I thought this was a big part of what we do? So I'm a bit confused there. The rest of it is pretty good I guess.

Text on paper. August 15th. Positive ones. You're welcome.
INSPECT end of year and DEFORM NLT March 2015.
It's the only stock I have and it's 20% of my overall portfolio. Silly and potentially stupid (sums me up perfectly).
I agree with JC that we shouldn't have bombarded him with Sigma questions.
I doubt it'll strain the relationship but it's not good form and it may explain why he was hesitant. He may have been looking for the right words to use since there's the NDA, JTDA, trade secrets, etc.
Looking forward to hearing the replay.
I'm a door to door door salesman.
If I do well enough I can start selling windows.
C'mon Sigma!
Dammit, I need to find a new job.
