I am sure that overnight Monday all the brokers systems will be updated and the new symbol entered and all sell and buy orders for TTDZ will be cancelled prior to 8am tuesday morning
Those with buys get ready and those protecting their shares with a high sell price make sure you protect those shares ASAP
Well bud they have a real problem now...the name and symbol change came out of nowhere...I wasn't expecting it on Friday before the holiday weekend and I am sure 99% of the others also.
Now instead of enjoying their three day weekend they will need to gather up their dollars (probably 5 times more than they expected) to cover their positions as soon as possbile.
They are hoping that no PR is released until after the market opens so they can hope for a quick dip but if it comes out before the markets opens they are royaly screwed.
I can see that some of them will lose all their profits and then some that they have made shorting the stock since the beginning of the year.
They are calling friends and relatives now trying to borrow $$$ to cover their positions.
At the very least before opening bell a PR with the new name and symbol will need to be made as those that may have placed orders after the market closed on Friday will have been cancelled and they will need to know the new name and symbol (if they don't they may belief the company shut down) plus the shorties need to know to cover before their due date. They will want to settle as soon as possible or they will take it in the shorts...I pity their poor decision.
I wouldn't be surprised if it came out over the holiday weekend...nothing wrong with priming the pump....
Nice to see the shorties and MM's scrambling over the weekend to cover
I wouldn;t be surprised however if the opening see red or even close in the red Tuesday as the name change takes place and peoples accounts have the symbol change hit their account...once everyones accounts have been changed this should start the green climb for weeks
I will add that all those longs that have their shares locked in for a high sale amount to prevent your shares being "borrowed" remember that your order will be cancelled once the symbol change happens and you need to go back in a reset a new sale order
Lock up your shares ASAP after the symbol change shows up on your account
If you check your etrade account deeper you will see that all your shares have been sold to a cuisp number
I will imagine that by tuesday morning the shares will show up under the new symbol. I had another stock go through a name change recently over a weekend and the same happened
I was going to ask the same thing....I imagine that the original symbol was rejected and GRCU was offered up as an alternative which also could be the reason why the symbol change took longer than expected....
I got concerned this morning when I saw my etrade account the TTDZ gone and a cusp number in it's place. When I opened up the cusp number I saw all my buys for TTDZ moved to Sell orders to the cusp number
Signed on here and no link to TTDZ and had to hunt to find we are now GRCU...
Talk above a midnight raid with no announcements....
Well there is now no excuse for El Capitan to be quiet...he got his symbol and name change now it's time to start working
no worries here my shares are locked at $1.00 and no plans to sell any lower than that...I am in for the long haul
Since they are shipping to "Brick and Mortar" locations per their release with shelf availability by the end of June it would appear to me that a large amount of product is being shipped then has to be distributed to the locations from the "Brick and Mortar" warehouse could profits from these sales being used to share buyback...makes sense to me
Apparently the ship will not set sail until the ship has been renamed according to our CEO.
Has anyone seen the painters at the boat painting a new name on the ship?
Don't know but there are plenty of health mags out there that could be used however what would make the companies pop would be to get on one of the shopping channels or am infomercial.
The products are prime for regular bi monthly slots on a shopping channel. Problem would be if they could have enough stock in the warehouse!!!! That would be huge sales
I would also get it on Amazon...there are a ton of hemp products on amazon even the CEO has a book available for sale via Kindle on Amazon
My shares are locked for $1.00 so if anyone wants to borrow my shares they will need to pony up!!!!
Smartest thing the longs can do is lock up their shares for a high price. If you want to sell lower only takes a few minutes to cancel the higher price then sell
Keeps the MM and flippers at bay
For starters with no advertising and they just started not bad. Once the product offerings expand, advertising and marketing starts it will be 35 orders every 15 minutes.
Have to start somehwere, have to get the CS, shipping and packing departments getting used to the procedures.
I also beleive that the average order is much higher than the $20 you estimate....I would say it is closer to the $50 mark
At those prices I wouldn't be surprised if there wasn't any share buying among the officers if so we will see a release on it
Would be a vote of confidence among the shareholders if officers are buying shares on the open market
Remember name and symbol change will only happen if and when approved
If not approved what then?
File for a different one? Who knows......
Till then we wait and wait and wait and......
Patience is what is needed if not happy with the bloodbath you can always sell and come
Back later
The huge drop in the PPS over the past few weeks are telling me that there is currently a lack
Of confidence in the management of the company
I have yet to sell a share and with today's drop my investment is basically even and I do believe that by end of year it will pay off however the general result of the drop is a lack of confidence
We can blame the flippers and the mm but we can't blame them forever
I thought that the update last week was great and should have stabilized the PPS but it hasn't
I see the PPS dropping below .01 this week and staying there for a while until the management ally makes great strides in product sales and profits
I will accumulates as much as I can but I believe management needs two gain the confidence of the market, do the right things to prove that it is not like the other MMJ companies out there and that Calkin is being held to a higher standard and really needs to prove himself to the stock market before the buying comes back
Just my opinion disagree all you want however that is how I see this dramatic downward trend in the PPS
And no I am not selling my shares and am willing to lose it all
Why would they hold 5 years of stock for their five years of sales today?
Yesterday you claim that they are selling old product not fresh product and now you are claiming they don't hold stock for their long term contracts?
Does you local gas station hold enough stock to fuel your vehicles for the next 5 years? If not does that mean you will not purchase fuel from them?
Does your local supermarket hold enough stock for the next 5 years of your purchased now?
Does your local electrical provider hold enough power in stock for your personal consumption for the next 5 years?
That's a double negative....if there is no stock as you are claiming how can the profits be low? You have to have stock in order to sell and generate profits...any profit either low or high
Also if they are using old stock that is in inventory what is the problem with that? Does Vodka have a shelf life? I have yet to see any Vodka with an expiration date listed.
What about wine? Don't they sell and market wine that is 2, 4, 10, 20+ years old? Most times at a nice premimum also.
What about Whiskey? Isn't most fine whiskey sold has been aged in barrels 7, 10, 15+ years?
They are not selling moonshire here

Patience is needed, let them do their work to build a strong stable company and STOP harrassing them on their Facebook pages
Isn't she in charge of the website? If so she didn;t include her photo unless she is having a new one made to post
Very well said...until one sells there is no profit or loss
If you are holding it is just paper gains and losses
Just remember when you sell Uncle Harry Reid and Aunt Nancy Pelosi wants their cut so hold long term so he doesn't get a big chunk of your hard earned money
Now the numbers from Glassdoor
Labor Smart Score 2.2 (4 reviews)
Robert Half Score 2.8 (718 reviews)
Kelly Services Score 3.2 (628 reviews)
Manpower Score 3.1 (463 Reviews)
Apple One Score 2.9 (142 Reviews)
So look at the competion and their scores plus the number of reviews that have been posting yet Labor Smart had only 4 reviews to date
With only 4 reviews versus hundreds for the others the score can be swayed easily yet you make it sound like Labor Smart is a deadbeat company to work for. Get real. Let's wait till they have been given a hundred reviews to give a more relaistic review
I checked the company that I worked for which has been in buisness for 75 years and there are only two reviews posted and is rated a 3. One person reported great reviews and other hated working for the company so is that a true reflection of the company? No it is not
Glassdoor is not considered reliable source for company reviews
Read the following article...the top two rated companies to work for are also given poor reviews on Glassdoor

No need to respond to posting there as the top companies do not respond either
I am flipping this stock as much as you are.....
$10 and $25 K buys is not big money investors and an occassional $50 or $90K is fine
What we need are those people that dump 100, 200 500K into the company which end up providing leadership to the BOD, low cost loans, contacts etc in all aspects of buisness
I can assure you that I will sell out at a much higher price than you will as I am not one of the hypers here making claims of news coming later today or it's only 10:30 in Cali, or most news comes out on weekends, or this will go to 100000% etc
Those are the flippers and rookie traders around here looking to take their $500 investment and buy them a used VW Beetle with their profits
I beleive he did not a buisness plan in place yes....how many CEO's do when they take a position?
He may have ideas of what he wants to do, where he wants it to go and needs to flush out what his best options are, he also needs to find out where the company can fit itself the marketplace
Claims that this is the best MMJ play in town, this company will be the worldwide leader in MMJ etc are too bold statements and could never come into reality
They will find their niche however as I stated again to hold back a buisness plan and/or making buisness announcments could be creating these Wild swings in the PPS
30% increases followed by days of double digit decreases in the PPS hurt and not help the company
Calkin is a rookie CEO of a public company (didn't say in private company) however we have plenty of rookie investors here hyping the stock which keep the large long term investors away
Don;t get me wrong as I would not have added shares several times recently to my portfolio
I also am prepared to lose it all as if as an investor you are not then stash your money on the bank
I just question a lot of the hype here about name changes, Calkin will only speak when it is his company, stock going up 100000% etc
These people do more harm then good and provide flippers and day traders the huge swings in the PPS that keep the stock where it is and they make money not us
They do not realize that a slow steady rise with a correction once in a while is good, they themselves love the huge wild swings which makes the company appear like a penny stock (which is is) but keeps the smart heavy investors away. We need those big fish to invest and stay. Stock stability allows the company to do more than it can now, makes cheaper money available to them because of the PPS stability and slow rise in price.
They don't understand what it takes to build a powerhouse of a company.
Could you please provide evidence that to be true that no name change has ever not been approved?
Your statement about me is so wrong as I am a realist and an investor not a hypster making claims like you just did that I am going to be left behind when it goes up 100000%
That is hype
I ask real questions based on what if's and why has it yet to happen versus tomorrow we have news coming aout today, or another post todat that we will be green in 45 minutes then they retract and post "ignore my last statement" what about all the posts that guarentee news tomorrow, or we will be green at the end of the day
That is hype and not based on facts.
BTW I added more shares last week four times on the low PPS, have accumulate shares here since October of last year, have yet to sell one share and hold over 2 mil shares because I beleive in the company and not the hype and I invested long before Calkin became CEO
What about you? Do you hold a sizeable share amount, have you been on board since last year? Are you a long term investor or looking for that big score then will dump?
What happens if the new name doesn't get approved? Then what?
Calkin bails out on the company?
Holding back news on a company for the sake of a name change could be dangerous and an injustice to us shareholders
Please do not come back to me that Triton is not Calkin's company and that Green Cures is as he was hired on as CEO of Triton unless his employment contract specially states that he becomes CEO upon the successful complettion of a corporate name change and/or deals are specific in that the deal is done under the Green Cures umbrella and not Triton and becomes effective only if and when the corporate name change takes place
Boy that would be dangerous
A buisness plan would be nioe....that could scare the flippers away however that has yet to be revealed. Either Calkin is working on one or he has no idea at this time what he wants the company to be when it grows up
The above is a legitimate statement as there are many ways the company can go and no company can be all things for all people
He has to weight through the opportunities, partnerships and investors to carve out the plan
The longer it goes the more people are uncertain about the companies and flippers play on the doubts
Once a plan is in place and announced to shareholders they will leave and go play somewhere else as the course has been set
Currently the ship is atill at the pier awaiting the captain to make a decision on where he wants to sail the ship
Yes and no....
People can be flipping their own shares
Company can be dumping more shares on the markets thus lowering the price as the inventory is huge
MM dumping shares thus cuasing the decline and buying them up at a cheaper PPS
All the above can cause huge swings in the stock.
Flipper get away with this as they hold multiple accounts and buy and sell between them.
It's all about available invetory and at what PPS that inventory becomes available
I wish I knew the reason for this huge drop with what was suppose to more stabilize the PPS vs the rug being pulled out from under us
Can we as shareholders afford any more news?
Since the name change and stock buyback announcements the PPS has gone down over 60%!!!!
I hate to say this and I hope and doubt it is not true but since the name change as well as stock buyback announcement the PPS has tanked well over 60% I am starting to think that there is some backroom stock manipulation going on
It will be interesting to see at what PPS the company does thier byback and if insider trading starts to take place
Trademark is usually a name, logo, saying, word that is applied specifically to a product or type of product etc. Not a product or invention while a patent could be a product, design, process, formula etc.
Patents have a time span before it must be renewed and I beleive that the renewal can only happen once. A Patent Pending is actually better in many cases as a patent pending is very vauge to the public while a patent is definitive thus made public. Patent pending however do have an experation date if not updated. Good companies with something unique will ride the patent pending for as long as possible as it keeps the compeition at bay.
A trademark I beleive can be rewnewed indefinetly.
100% THUMBS UP!!!
Stop the needless pumping and let them do their jobs
We don't need the hype
Be patient and watch your portfolio rise besides it is better to
pay long term vs short term gains on your taxes
Better to concentrate domestically only for at least 5 years and build a strong company domestically with revenue and profits
Expanding internationally will be a huge mistake right now and it will be very expensive and the company can not afford it as of yet...now if they have huge international partners with deep pockets and the investment by the comany is zero to none then they can risk it but first get the core base up and running on all cylinders
What is wrong with buying a shell and using it to go public?
It is done all the time costs less money versus starting up from scratch as well as gets you to the market sooner
It is done all the time even by large multi billion corporations
Of course I will provide you with a current real life situation as we know you have a tendacy to stretch the truth or forget to back up your claims with facts
Burger King was a cpublic company several years back and the company accepted a buyout by 3G Capital which in turn took it private (no longer a private company)
Last year the decided to bring the company back into the market and used a British Sheel Company to take the company public once again and did it in record time
So I pose the question again...what is wrong with buying a public shell company to use to bring your company to market?
You hit the nail on the head. These are the most important days for the company which is new. Customer Service and Sales can make or break us in the next several months.
We need to keep the good word out with quality products, first rate customer service and knowledgable sales personnel
We all know what happens when negative posts start to happen in social media (which I am not a fan of)
And I beleive it will many times over but it has to do so with stability and facts not hype (the company is NOT putting out any hype) but many shareholedrs here are expecting huge rises to happen when in reality small constant upward movement will make us all money in the short or long term and the PPS becomes stable which attracts the big boy investers versus the flippers and day traders
