Ahhhh, sorry, thought you brought during the 09 dip. Did not even notice that it fell again. My bad.
Cytori Therapeutics Inc? CYTX? Clearly we are not talking the same stock.
Why are you still holding CYTX? Why didn't you sell back in January of 2010?
We are definitely in the twilight zone.
3 Cents. Apparently it only takes 6K shares to get us down to 3 cents. Wonder how many automatic sales that is going to trigger ...
Inappropriate. First, he would not speak to you unless you were his client or he had the client's approval and second, a good lawyer will not pass on his reasoning or strategy.
I have faith in Markle; I have none in Diac. I believe that, with his back against the wall Diac brought time by dangling the idea of working something out while he schemes a way out of the box Markle put him in. Diac will not settle unless there is a clause somewhere in it that allows him to weasel his way out of it. Since Markle will probably not allow that, my guess is that this is a tactic to give him a chance to build his defense.
Sincerely hope I am wrong. A settlement would eliminate the possibility of an appeal after the trial creating more uncertainty. But as you said, this is Calypso - a stock that exists in a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge ...
A few more shares now at the same price, but still not a huge trading day.
Uncertainty and concern over Markle's decision to drop the hearing on the motion to strike most of Diac's defense seems to have people on edge. Some are getting out - most are standing fast until the fog in clears.
Here's a case that could affect us seeing how T-Mob's seems to be relying on invalidating our patent as their defense.

I see. I suppose then that Diac (or anyone else) could have sold or otherwise transferred their shares without the transaction going through a registered broker. The transactions would not show up in the normal trading action, and most likely would not have been reported on SEC forms.
Just curious, is everyone else who brought-in as part of that deal in the same situation? Would this also hold up Diac from selling his shares?
At this point I have to admit I am beginning to scratch my head. Not allowing Markle to testify makes sense. Generally, attorney's taking part in the litigation should not be a witness - but that does not seem to be the case with Williams. Also, the reason you close discovery is to ensure a speedy trial, to not let discovery last forever wasting the courts time and denying the parties their day in court, but since the case is delayed anyway, why the need to close discovery? Why not let them get the information and clarify the facts to make the trial itself more efficient?
I see the grounds for the appeal being formulated already.
If there are any they would be smart enough to know that making "professional" assessments about the nature or outcome of litigation that another person could rely on (I used to say reasonably, but not any more) could open themselves up to a law suit.
Besides that, every state jurisdiction has its own laws and rules of civil procedure and every local jurisdiction has its own quirks. Only a fool would identify themselves as a lawyer and make any assessment of what is or might happen in this case.
Have to agree that this one is better left in Markle's court, pardon the pun. Making defamatory accusations against judges without anything more than the parties being acquaintances is probably not a smart move. If there is more going on Markle will figure it out.
I thought I had remember seeing the form 3 somewhere. Guess we have to assume that he is still the owner, although I also remember somewhere reading that he had transferred a number of shares to his wife. Whether that triggers a reporting requirement I don't know.
If "her half" was 11M share, it sill meets the requirements. Either way, someone should have filed.
Well, by my math that is more than 5%, so someone needs to be filing.
To the best of my knowledge, he has never filed as the owner of the shares. I don't think he meets the rules, although I am not sure what his total percentage of ownership is.

Bought on Dec 9th
Average price was 0.09,
You must have not have made a bundle on CLYW.
Well I just hope you sold all your shares. Hate to think you might still be holding like the rest of us fools.
OK, this post is admittedly off topic and if anyone feels the need to delete it feel free... but I just had to post it.
I'm Go'in to Disneyland!
Hey, I got the volume right. Just about 80% off on the price though. And it did go up before it went down. As Meatloaf says, "Two out of three aint bad".
Did not expect this. If there is no significant change tomorrow than I can pretty well rule out that the recent price increase was based on leaked news.
I didn't think guys named Mario sued. I thought they found guys named Guido to break your legs.
I will not be able to buy again until the first. I know it is bad form but I hope things hold at these levels (or below) until then.
You haven't completely sold out yet? What you waiting for?
Looks like we are both wrong. Although I will have to give credit where credit is due ... you were much closer than I was.
Just curious, do you use different rules when charting pink sheets than you do when charting stocks on the NYSE?
Seems to me the assumptions that underlie each would be vastly different and undermine the validity of the conclusions.
Just for fun, my prediction for today: initial rise in price followed by a slow decline. 1.3 Million shares traded [+/- 300K]. Closing price 12.2 [+/- .3 cents]. I am 100% correct about 20% of the time.
I was thinking this through. Assuming that news is behind the move I would expect to see two more trends. First, volume will slowly increase as more people become aware of the news through back channels. Second, cheap shares will start to dry up as short term speculators are replaced by people who have an idea of the actual value of the company. It should not be noticeable at first but we should see a slowly increasing trajectory in price as shares dry up caused by more investors holding for the big money. Keep an eye on that new buyer in Indiana. Please let me know if he sells. I am almost willing to bet that he won't.
If the hypothesis is correct about news driving the increase in volume then I would suspect that these two trends will be fully evident by the 1st of next month. An early indicator would be the lack of a drop in price as no new news comes out -- what should normally happen.
Seen a lot of sales so I think that we have set a new price level. I still think it will take 3-5 million more shares to get us to fifteen. Lets hope I am wrong.
Have to agree, I was not really invested in that theory. You are right that the action should grow over time, simple geometric progression from word of mouth (assuming, of course, that no one can keep their mouths shut when they know of a "sure thing").
You are right, volume will tell the tale. The volume over the last week is way too large to be simply anticipation of the state court case.
Till tomorrow.
If there is good news lurking in the background it would be hard to keep a lid on. I had always figured there would be a run once things started to leak but I expected it to be much larger than this. Could be that the news is still in fairly restricted. If there is good news behind the move then that "drift down" I spoke of will be absorbed by the newcomers.
Also curious what restrictions there are on T-Mobile employees who are privy to the negotiations buying shares of Calypso. Just idle curiosity.
In any case, I have seen nothing to give me pause.
Someone had said that Calypso came up on some "boards" last week. I would hate to think that the run from .07 levels was based on a pump in the pink sheet tabloids. I doubt it, but you never know.
Over 1.5 million traded, the majority of them sales, and the price held in the twelve cent range. To me, that means that a far share of the profit takers have taken their profits; good news for the next move. Don't see the court delay as mattering much since I don't see the state court case as the cause of the rise. Something else out there, probably word or mouth PR.
However, as always, as time drags on people will exit for the "next hot thing", so the price "should" drift down over the next few weeks. Even so, I don't think we will see .08 again unless something bad happens.
Of course, this is sheer speculation.
Also a good sign that no one painted the tape at the end of the day IMO.
I am not a big believer in the MM boogie man. Don't get me wrong, they are more interested in having share traded so they make their money than in having them remain stagnate, I just don't think they control everything the way some people do.
Yep, pick up some more shares around the 1st. Hope things have gotten soft by then, but I doubt it.
Here are the court Texas Rules regarding assignement of cases. If you can figure it our let me now.
http://www.justex.net/courts/civil/LocalRules.aspx
http://www.supreme.courts.state.tx.us/rules/trcp/rcp_all.pdf
RULE 245. ASSIGNMENT OF CASES FOR TRIAL
The court may set contested cases on written request of any party, or on the court's own motion, with
reasonable notice of not less than forty-five days to the parties of a first setting for trial, or by
agreement of the parties; provided, however, that when a case previously has been set for trial, the
Court may reset said contested case to a later date on any reasonable notice to the parties or by
agreement of the parties. Non-contested cases may be tried or disposed of at any time whether set
or not, and may be set at any time for any other time.
A request for trial setting constitutes a representation that the requesting party reasonably and in
good faith expects to be ready for trial by the date requested, but no additional representation
concerning the completion of pretrial proceedings or of current readiness for trial shall be required
in order to obtain a trial setting in a contested case.
Yep, it is what it is. I'm not going anywhere. But if T-Mobile is waiting for the state case to be concluded they may be getting impatient.
I never liked the idea of settling T-Mobile before the state case. Assuming a deal is in the works and the SP goes to anything near $1.00 a share Diac will be in a much better condition to fight. It is one thing to be the underdog company with no revenue fighting the evil, blood sucking partner. It is another to be the multi-million dollar company fighting the poor guy who saved the company by sharing in the patent's riches.
Guess I am not seeing the logic in it. Case was bumped from November to February and now the court bumps it again for a month or more while other cases go forward ... not really seeing the efficiency in that system.
But, I have never had any dealings with a Texas court (thank goodness) so it may work for them.
I kinda doubt that the court rolls over cases that fail to make the docket in that fashion. Only a guess, but I would say that it will either bump something in the next two week docket startling on the 21st or will be scheduled for the very next docket after that on the 6th of March.
If we jump from here I would expect the next resistance at .15. Just a guess, and even that I could not rationally explain. As you said, what has really changed?
I would guess that jump will take about 3M shares.
Seems to take between 3 and 5 million shares traded for it to settle at a new level.
