Just finished cleaning my pool this afternoon as well and, I found a dead, bloated squirrel in mine floating face down.
Spooz and/or its friends.
IMO, this would indicate one of two things:
1) Shares are being moved around between market makers, or
2) There exist a strong buying presence brought about by x, y and/or z
Well, as I observed yesterday peeved, there were actually more buys than sells (not counting after-hour activity) - 85m to 79m. I have also observed this same scenario on other recent high volume days save one.
Well, I don't know how accurate the old "signal between market makers" theory is, but yesterday I saw one and only one 300 share transaction go through, which is supposed to signal that a mm wants the price to be taken down a bit so they can load up on shares. Take it for what you will.
Well heck folks, I'm just as concerned as a lot of others here appear to be, but looking at the buy vs. sell activity, which does not include after-hours activity, buys were around 85m compared to 79m in sells. So, although a good bit of shares were indeed sold, in essence, they were ALL picked up. Maybe, and remember all we can do is speculate at this juncture, someone or some entity wanted to buy a fair chunk of SPZI shares and were instructed that they would have to do so on the open-market. Thus, the increase in the A/S count and corresponding methodical increase in the O/S count (which, in addition to the aforementioned, may also be related to necessary funding for operating expenses)???
Just one of many possible scenarios and a talking point…
Common Shares Outstanding as of 1:27pm (Per the T/A):
2,763,115,658
Oops, looks like it was already addressed. Nevermind. Let me see what else I can attempt to dig up.
Hi folks, please take a look at the attached, which, if I read it correctly, states unequivocally that SMCC was founded in August 2007. If true, I wonder if this is indeed what Paul had in mind at the time in formulating Spooz's heightened revenue projects, tip-of-the-iceberg cliché and so forth and so on:
http://www.sec.gov/comments/4-533/4533-47.pdf
I hope I'm not rehashing something, which has already been addressed.
Thanks.
Anyone think that today's synthetic price increase is high enough to begin selling shares into yet?
...Mountainman, or whatever his name was, to the rescue!!!!
LMAO!
I know it happened to me. The last reverse split left me with 186 shares. I had to buy a lot more cheapies (average down) and then “forcibly” hold them for well over half a year, before I finally got to sell them last week during the arguably superficial rise in price.
Allie, please check your email, maybe in the SPAM basket, when you have moment.
Thanks.
Outstanding Common Share Count (Per T/A) as of 8:05AM:

Thanks Imperial, I thought you made mention of this, but wasn’t completely sure or couldn’t remember.
I, for one, couldn't get on IHUB for the entire trading-afternoon.
Ok, let me see if I can alter the subject matter at hand a bit. I don't know if this has been discovered by anyone else as of yet, but I found an interesting link between Track Data Corp., ticker symbol - TRAC(NASDAQ) and SFB Market Systems Inc. Per TRAC's 10-K SEC Filing, filed by TRACK DATA CORP on 3/27/08, the company:
In May, 2006, the Company purchased a non-dilutable 15% interest in SFB Market
Systems, Inc. ("SFB") for $150,000 cash. SFB is a privately held company that
provides an online centralized securities symbol management system and related
equity and option information for updating and loading of master files. The
Company currently has a representative on SFB's four member Board of
Directors. The Company accounts for its investment in SFB under the cost method,
and is included in other assets in the balance sheet as of December 31, 2007 and
2006.
***Very Interesting for Starters***

(Take a good look at what this company does)
So indeed, on the surface, it appears as though Spooz is definitely attempting to surge forward in the companies business endeavors.
All aboard!
Ok, anyone knows what's going on with regards to the explosion in trading volume?
I wonder if this simply means that the time allotted to get approved as an introducing broker simply ran out. It appears as though 141 had 90 days to move from pending to approved status, but I could be wrong.
Slow and steady, Spooz continues to methodically put the pieces of the puzzle together.

Spooz Technologies Inc. and SFB Market Systems Inc. to Launch Joint Venture Company
Last update: 8:00 a.m. EDT May 22, 2008Print E-mail RSS Disable Live Quotes
CHICAGO, May 22, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Spooz Technologies, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Spooz, Inc. (Pink Sheets:SPZI) and SFB Market Systems, Inc. (SFB) a privately owned corporation are pleased to announce they have entered into a Letter of Intent to launch the Symbol Management Clearing Corporation (SMCC). The goal of SMCC is to incorporate the advanced technologies provided by Spooz into the expansion of SFB's products and services known as Symbol Manager(TM) and Symbol Master(R) for the purpose of regulating global symbology management.
SMCC will provide the trading industry with a seamless interface for access into its centralized repository servers, thus increasing efficiency and accuracy within the exchanges and firms. SFB has solved the problem of decentralization with its proprietary products, Symbol Manager(TM) and Symbol Master(R), which currently provide information and services that are held to the highest standards to options exchanges and market participants. The new joint venture plans are to expand current SFB services to the entire trading industry.
Spooz and the SMCC will provide brokers, exchanges, and clearing firms with a flexible and robust platform from which to request new symbols for trading products. This will also allow for the creation of synthetic products to which new symbols may be assigned, such as spreads, baskets, and combinations. The new electronic system will replace the antiquated manual processes and is expected to save the exchanges and the industry millions of dollars.
"We are excited with the opportunity presented to Spooz by SFB Market Systems and the joint venture plan," said Paul D. Strickland, the Spooz CEO. "We are confident that SMCC will become the largest and most reliable source for accurate trading information bringing tremendous value to our shareholders and market participants".
"SFB looks forward to working with Spooz and its innovative team to jointly provide the financial industry with the most advanced integrated systems and technology tools for the centralization of symbology management. This will ensure the best and quickest execution possible in trade clearing," said Lee Clifford, CEO of SFB Market Systems.

This is very true MC, there are plenty of "broken" companies out there with a higher pps than they should have. Conversely there are plenty of sound companies out there, with solid fundamentals yet a "broken" pps. I always attempt to invest in fundamentally sound companies, companies with foresight and a vision for the future (financials can sometimes be creatively misleading).
To date, I have not witnessed any evidence, which suggest Spooz is “broken” internally. They are simply trying to enter a market with heightened “barriers-to-entry”; just like the oil market where just so long as there is oil in the ground and billions in profits to made off of it, there will always be strong barriers (powerful lobbyist against for one) put up against alternative fuels gaining ground IMO.
To the best of my knowledge, if that particular means of financing/investment is still in the pipeline for Spooz, it has not been publicly disclosed as of yet.
Buy vs. Sell ratio was approx. 4 to 1 today. Similar, although not exact, trends have been present in recent trading-days. Sure, on a daily basis this adds up to mere thousands ($) being traded, but if the aforementioned trend continues then one realizes that some considerable, collective cash is being invested in Spooz; in spite of, or maybe more appropriately, alongside recent equity financing measures taken by the company
Any thoughts?

Excellent thought process/post mtncabin, I had similar, although not publicly stated, thoughts swirling around in my head as well.
Hi Allie, have you had a chance to check your email today?
Thanks for the clarification. I'll digest the note one more time.
I'm not sure if it is a typo or not, but Note-#6 on page 13 states that Spooz received 12,000,000 rather than 120,000,000 in common stock consideration from XXIS; anybody see this stated differently elsewhere in the financials?

All things are possible CHRISDDHD, that's why I continue to try and think "outside-of-the-box" when it comes to my investment in Spooz. It is my belief that the company is strategically/methodically positioning itself within its market segment, in order to accomplish something us stalwarts will all appreciate later.
I agree THSeeker there are a veritable plethora of such “like-kind” scenarios constantly streaming through my head.
Hello alliecorp, I guess, for the time being anyway, that it is difficult to ascertain exactly what is going on with our company as a whole. One thing I will point out however is that the outstanding share count has increased by 50M since the last time a checked with the T/A around a week ago:
Was @ 1,696,168,304
Now @ 1,746,168,304
As I believe we all do, I anxiously await for news.
Regards,
I just contacted the transfer agent for Spooz, Olde Monmouth, and was informed that as of today the o/s share count for Spooz is:
1,696,168,304.
The call lasted about 20-30 secs.
