I think by the end of the week things will have turned around a bit. Hopefully sooner then later.
That could possibly be a factor with the price atm. It would explain the last few days for sure. Need to spend money to make it I guess.
Good time to scoop some up then.
Nothing gets past you
john10204 We all learn something new every day. The biggest problem I think people have on boards like this is that people like BrianMay who have no idea wtf they are talking about, spout off because they lost a little money on the short. Then uninformed investers get left with a bad taste, and the cycle begins.
The stock will end up doing well, IMO that's a def. All of these dips are normal and part of the deal. Being shorted isn't the end of the world by a long shot, and that's all it looks like is happening.
The stock will rebound in the next few days IMO. the flux is nothing new really.
So you caught my point, whats that say about you? lol stringing you along is fun - continue days flyin by !
Its Friday, the crazy are out. Obviously using all caps makes everything he says true. I'm sure he was at the top of his class. That being said I think we need another little end of day rally today. Yea I know its Friday and that tends to be the day people dump a little, but the stock is about to take off so nothing is out of the realm of possible.
The stocks potential is endless, just need to get some positive movement and we are in the green ~_^
Your daily entertainment is provided by Brianmay39, butt-hurt and lashing out! Thanks Brian!
A stock that gets dumped a bit on Fridays, time to worry.....
The stock will be back up + some on Monday, but hey lets all freak out about it now.
Not a bad way to finish
what the hell, might as well jump in ~_^
Need a good closing push
Probably a good idea getting in now while its still in that range.
The stock is severely undervalued IMO also. With 50m-65m projected the math says it all.
I would be happy with .02, though i agree the potential value in the short term is pretty substantial. worth holding on to.
I agree. i feel safe regardless because of the volume.
Its been worth picking up this stock for awhile now. Crazy volume, and consistent. pretty safe buy IMO. Happy people stuck it out, its starting to pay off.
Happy to see any news, and def keeping an eye on the stock. could be some good things in the near future IMO. exciting nonetheless
I think it looks like a naked short situation personally. Keeping an eye on it, but that's how it feels to me.
I think it will end up good. Today is looking great thus far.
Was on yahoo and saw someone mention a forward split, after checking out http://www.screencast.com/t/OGFmMzYwY stock analysis, that would be a pretty big move.
Stock has been looking nice. Not really sure whats going on, but I like it!
Got an email about these guys this morning and did some research. Looks like they are going to be making some moves, also they released a few new vids http://www.properpower.com/videos.cfm .
Worth looking into IMO
Bottom line is the few bashers there are, will always be bashers. Hawk is a burn out, and people know that and mostly disregard every thing he says - for instance.
There is alot of positive coming, the concall was great IMO, and the company is moving forward.
Though I don't think it would be quite as interesting without the downys posting here also...
Stock has been doing pretty well, nice to see the movement!
TaxMasters, Inc. Recipient of 2010 Pro Patria Award
Interesting read, check it.
HOUSTON, March 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR) awarded TaxMasters, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board:TAXS.ob - News), the IRS tax relief company, with a Pro Patria Award on Thursday, March 25, 2010. Mr. Cox and Vice President of Sales Alex Clamon attended the ESGR Awards Banquet in Austin, Texas, as part of the National Guard Association of Texas Annual Conference.
Already recognized as a Patriotic Employer by ESGR, TaxMasters was one of six public and private companies in Texas chosen for a Pro Patria Award in 2010. Each ESGR Committee presents this award annually to employers in their state or territory who have exercised leadership and implemented exceptional personnel policies that accommodate employees who serve in the National Guard and Reserve.
"This award is special to us at TaxMasters," said Mr. Cox. "Thousands of volunteer citizen soldiers from all over the United States are being called on to serve their country overseas and at home during natural disasters. I see it is our obligation to make short- and long-term deployment as easy as possible on the Reservists, the Guardsmen, and their families back home. Though it's a small sacrifice compared to that of our service members and their families, it is essential in helping them serve their country."
Mr. Cox continued, "In particular, I want to recognize and thank Major Fred Hackett, TaxMasters' General Counsel for 3 years, who is currently deployed in Iraq with the 36th Infantry Division Sustainment Brigade. He's a close friend and we look forward to seeing him back home sometime this summer."
TaxMasters was also recently nominated for the Secretary of Defense Employer Support Freedom Award. This award is the highest recognition given by the U.S. Government to employers for their support of employees who serve in the National Guard and Reserve. Semi-finalists and finalists will be announced over the summer at www.freedomaward.mil and recipients will be recognized in September 2010.
Moving forward
Stock up almost 6%!! Exciting logging in every morning and seeing them do so well. Strong company, obvious buy imo. Should check out there homepage if you h haven't already, lots of interesting information.
Stock is up today also, and already over the average. This stock looks better and better every day. Now to get the range down, and we are all set!
Wow, something big must be going on - the stock is way up. Found this release on the yahoo boards, check it out.
HOUSTON, March 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- The IRS recently announced several steps it plans to take this tax season to help accommodate taxpayers having difficulty meeting their tax obligations because of unemployment or financial problems. The steps are meant to help the large number of taxpayers impacted by the economic decline facing having to pay looming tax bills.
With the tax deadline less than a month away, IRS Commissioner Doug Shulman announced that he has extended more flexibility to IRS agents in considering tax settlements. In particular, IRS employees will be permitted to consider a taxpayer's current income and potential for future income when negotiating an offer in compromise. Normally, the standard practice is to judge an offer amount on a taxpayer's earnings in prior years, which can be misleading when unemployment or financial hardship occur. This new step provides greater flexibility when IRS employees consider offers in compromise from the unemployed.
"This could mark a significant shift in the way the IRS handles tax debt, particularly tax debt brought about by unemployment in a down economy," said Patrick Cox, Founder, President and Board Chairman of TaxMasters, Inc. "In an environment where our client base continues to grow, Shulman's directive to the IRS could mean more offers in compromise being accepted and more taxpayers being eligible to participate in the settlement program. We're very excited about what this announcement means to the U.S. taxpayer and TaxMasters' client base."
But, some are wary of IRS promises. As Eileen Ambrose reported this week in The Baltimore Sun, "Some doubt just how generous the IRS will be. The agency made similar promises to be more flexible last year." Last year's enforcement actions saw the number of IRS liens increase by 26 percent and the number of rejected offers in compromise stay near the 80 percent range, leading to doubts as to the sincerity of the IRS and Commissioner Shulman.
If the IRS follows through with Commissioner Shulman's directive to relax its income requirement to qualify for an offer in compromise, it could significantly increase the number of accepted settlement offers in 2010 and beyond. "It's a big shift," Shulman is quoted as saying "This will allow thousands more in the [offer in compromise] program."
When asked about whether he expects the IRS to follow Shulman's direction, Mr. Cox said, "I certainly hope that will be the case. Regardless, TaxMasters will continue to use proven methods for helping people regain compliance with the IRS and find affordable ways to pay their tax debts. Commissioner Shulman is facing some significant collections issues, evidenced by our growth rate at TaxMasters. He is clearly trying to extend the offer in compromise to more people in an effort to collect revenue owed to the IRS. "
Cox continued, "At the same time, it's important to understand that there are more options than the offer in compromise to help taxpayers with IRS problems. TaxMasters excels at guiding our clients through this process while helping them pay only what they owe, avoiding unnecessary penalties and interest."
"We applaud Commissioner Shulman's leadership on behalf of the taxpayer and will do all we can to make sure TaxMasters' clients benefit from the relaxed income requirements for offers in compromise," said Cox.
Good news for Tax payers, good news for TaxMasters - now lets hope the stock keeps moving!
I don't think we need a press release to see your disgruntled. All the constant crying says it all. I'll get a press release made that states your slow, that makes it real right? because its a press release...
Or just reading down the board at your posts. That pretty clearly shows how you feel, disgruntled ex-employee.
Guess you have nothing better to do though.
Was browsing the TM website and I found a Testimonials page.
http://www.txmstr.com/taxmasters/clientreviews.php
The amount of money some people have saved with these guys is pretty crazy.
A bit random, but I thought it was interesting. Think those are new ones up there also. Cool to see positive feedback from people.
I just know the stock has potential, I look at things from all sides, and while the stock has struggled i think it can still do well. Unlike yourself a disgruntled ex-employee, who's opinion of things is obviously bias.
Should add that into a sig so people can immediately write you off, instead of wasting time reading the garb you type, and then writing you off.

It went great. I was surprised how much they do/care about there customer service. Cox has been pushing this company forward at a great pace. Its a strong buy right now IMO, and will only get better as the company grows. They have really only shown growth since i have been invested, including buying up new space, which is obviously a good sign.
Some news would be wonderful. Moving in the right direction is great, but need updates thank you!
Its a good thing, obviously there are other issues that need attention, but the steps are being made. I'm interested so see whats next.

Exciting news! Stepping up to the plate is a good thing. I like this move.
Morning to you also, now lets get some movement here!
My guess would be to cut costs. If he wanted to get out earlier he could have. Restructuring isn't a bad thing, if they can cut costs across the board I think that would be great.
Should help in the long run.
Things are looking good. 107k sq foot building shows big growth. The graphs pretty much speak for themselves. Progressively getting better and better, motivated ceo. I like the way this stock is looking right now, good stuff IMO
Could def use some news IMO
