leighOLD (as you like to put it)
your response was "Rothvanberg you are da Man!!! Notice old Spooky didn't answer you regarding the wager. LOL"
the reality is that if i would have made that wager i would have won. its quite obvious that you are one of the typical pumpers around here but never offer any worthwhile DD on AURC.
rothvanberg
leighoh1 also for supporting that post.
"I am willing to bet you 5000 Aurc shares that we get a positive PR this week care to step up"
once again the pumpers failed to come through. so where is this PR that all of the pumpers claimed would be coming from Russia this week?
not sure if i am willing to dawn that tinfoil hat yet but i would say that there has been and continues to be much more buying than selling. most of this buying is in strong hands that are not going to let their shares go until the price goes up significantly. every day more shares are being put away for the long term and the float is 'shrinking' in that sense. the MMs will do what they please and are able to get away with in the meantime.
now i wait for the next PR with good news that just adds to the already strong confidence in DPDW shareholders.
welcome aboard, i take it you either just got into SUWN or are still looking to. i first bought in at the beginning of 06 (SUWNs market was 100% chinese) before the explosion from low .20s to around $1.50. i got in because of, and that run was part of, both the OTC chinese boom and the bird flu scare and SUWNs disinfectant. OnlySweet and the US market was not even a thought at that time. it still amazes me that a year a and a half later and i am buying a SUWN product at Kroger. unlike most OTCs SUWN has lived up to and exceeded every single PR and statement they have made.
SUWN has been a great trading and long term stock and will continue to be, imo
in west virginia? i have confirmed its in several kroger stores in atlanta.
it looks like OnlySweet will be in all 2,323 Kroger company stores. per SUWN, OnlySweet is be be sold "in excess of 2,000 stores nationwide". as investors there is no single contract more valuable than this.
SLJB down 27%. has reality finally struck and the fat lady beginning to sing or will there be another bogus rally after this knife has hit the ground?
thats odd, one would think that td waterhouse and td ameritrade would have the same restrictions. oh well, so much for what seemed like logic :)
that would help explain the low volume this morning until that 25000 order (looks like a buy) went through at 11:08
per 2create (and in the ibox):
"We have to Conclude from PR...then ~ +$.75 to $0.85 EPS for this fiscal 2007 is in line with estimates"
with only 7 months left in the year why would AURC not just produce gold and earn more per share then this $.55 buyout?
so you are saying that scammers never go to college?
two days ago on the bid we had 1 MM at .55 and 3 at .51
this morning we are set for 2 at .541, 1 at .52 and 3 at .51
the ask is beautifully sparse, MMs are stocking up and we do not have much shorting if any, imo
i say we are setup for a green day
feevro is correct. everyone calling jeremy and martin are going to gain absolutely no worthwhile or meaningful information. that is what PRs are for, however when you have a history of not living up to or fulfilling any of your PRs they become just as useless as speaking to jeremy and martin.
its kind of like a dog chasing its tail and not really going anywhere. eventually that dog will become dizzy and fall down.
why doesnt the dog stop chasing its tail and find another more fun toy to play with.
even if the last trade of the day was at the bid and we finished in the red, today is one of the strongest days we have had all month.
7 MMs on the bid between .51 and .535, this is the strongest lvl 2 action i have seen in a while
congrats all longs
i never got back in after flipping the run a few weeks ago.
it would definately seem that 'someone' does indeed know 'something'
MMs are really fighting to stay on top of the bid
looks great and the bid wall at .51 is moving up
amazingkarma,
per yesterdays filing: "We will not receive any proceeds from
the sale of the shares by the selling security holders."
i did not think that SUWN would be getting any money from these warrants.
the good thing about DPDW remaining under the radar is that the gradual climb in PPS combinded with the continual slow (and long term) buying is that we are avoiding the swings caused by lots of flippers and traders. imo we have a lot more investors than traders at this point which bodes well for the long term PPS.
lets clear this up
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_growth
i agree it is an odd term but it is not incorrect. a google search for 'geometric growth' results in over a million uses of the phrase.

quotemedia shows the PE as 39.50 which i believe is more accurate
i suggest counting your future profits instead of sheep. you may be counting for a looooong time :)
i stopped by Kroger again and there was a price tag for OnlySweet and an empty space but the product is once again supposed to go out tonight. luckily my co-worker called me while i was dealing with Kroger 'customer service' people and he had in his hands a box of OnlySweet from a different Kroger store. tomorrow i will finally have product in hand, oh how 'sweet' it is.
a PR about the appointment of Mr Butler as CFO hopefully will be all it takes to bring in enough buying volume to move that .51 wall on the bid up towards the .60s
wow, now that is turning straw into gold. there is dreaming and there is being completely out of touch with reality.
"Petar V will return as CEO"
i am speechless
"Sulja will open Home Depot-like stores in the USA"
still speechless
serious question...are brokerages liable for mentally retarded people losing money on the stock market?

nice find but are we supposed to have access to this? that interface has complete control over their security cams.
the CFO announcement and resume is excellent
precisely
as if any of the past PRs, whether from russia or not, have come to fruition
"Cyclone Gonu is heading to the Gulf of Oman, forcing the evacuation of offshore rigs."

http://www.weather.com/maps/news/junenonactive/gonusatellite_large_animated.html
so much good news yet we are down 20% today, argh
only 1 MM on that .55 bid though, next 3 at .51
we could go either way today, imo. lets see how things shake out.
we are capacity at 600 tons per year. the new facility that was finished about 6 months ago makes 300 tons of premium stevia and will generate "$15 million in annual sales with 30% in net income " per the 9-13-06 PR
SUWN has a proven track record for increasing production so when they say "increase its overall production capabilities to 1,000 tons" they mean it
8-9-06
"We anticipate manufacturing 300 tons of stevioside during fiscal year 2007."
6-5-07
"management sees....600 tons in 2007"
HOLY doubling sales of stevia.
i stopped by one of the downtown Atlanta Krogers after work today and there was an employee resetting the sugar/sweetener section. i asked if she had seen OnlySweet and she pointed out a small space on the shelf where it was going to be put out tonight. unfortunately it was still on the truck and the other Krogers nearby did not have it out yet.
i will go back after work tomorrow and hopefully i will have purchased OnlySweet from the largest grocery store chain in the US.
i first invested in SUWN in Jan 06 right before the big run to $1.60 as a pure Chinese play. i would never have guessed that SUWN would successfully enter the US a year and a half later.
simply amazing.
BP: Thunder Horse (largest offshore platform ever built)
5-28-07 (important points below, complete article at link)
"Troubles run deep on Gulf oil platform: Repairs a daunting challenge. Technology leads BP to drill where it once could not, but the race for new fields carries high costs and risks"
"in July 2005, a commercial vessel traveling past BP PLC's hulking Thunder Horse oil platform radioed the bad news to its owner: The platform's top deck was listing into the water.
"BP is attempting to do what no oil company has done before: essentially rebuild the entire architecture of an oil field on the sea floor some 6,000 feet beneath the waves.
At $250 million, the job is costlier, and riskier, than putting the equipment on the gulf floor in the first place.
"sitting atop a reserve that possibly holds 1.5 billion barrels, promises to deliver up to 250,000 gallons of oil a day, making it one of the gulf's biggest producers. For U.S. consumers now paying an average of $3.10 a gallon for gas, Thunder Horse would relieve some of the price pressure: Fully operational, it would boost total U.S. production by 5 percent."
http://www.chicagotribune.com/business/chi-mon_bp_0528may28,1,5990218.story
currently BP plans to restart production in the second half of 2008.
http://www.bp.com/genericarticle.do?categoryId=9004519&contentId=7009088
in 2005 DPDW was one of the contractors on site after Hurricane Dennis took out Thunder Horse
http://www.bp.com/genericarticle.do?categoryId=97&contentId=7007458
per the 5-18-07 PR. "Recovery of an Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler ("ADCP") system with our equipment for the Thunder Horse project"
i have been thinking about mapping them out but just checking the location of the several of the rigs they seem to be spread all over the gulf field. maybe once we have a hurricane in the gulf i will make one if no one else has yet. i also have not found a sufficient large topo gulf map to use.
i was trying to figure out http://www.gomr.mms.gov/homepg/lsesale/Visual1.pdf at work but gave up :)
landshark, here is the oil platform distribution in the gulf
http://www.cruisebruise.com/gulf_of_mexico_oil_platorms.jpg
http://online.wsj.com/public/resources/images/P1-AF641A_DEEPO_20060904194931.jpg
"The 2005 hurricanes destroyed 109 oil platforms, damaged 50 others and destroyed several rigs."
http://www.heraldtribune.com/article/20070601/NEWS/706010621
and these are a few of my favorite things...
"The infrastructure we have in place has enabled us to increase our revenue over 63% from 2005 to 2006, after a 52% increase in the prior period"
"during the BP Aspen installation, a competitive version of Bell mouth failed allowing Deep Down the opportunity to develop a new type of latcher which was spring loaded....completely eliminating the need for divers both prior to and during the installation."
"Our management team has been involved in more umbilical installations then probably any other team in the industry. Our unique blend of drilling contractor, umbilical manufacturing, subsea engineering, and installation contractor experience has been effective in acting on behalf of the operator to ensure key hardware installation is performed in the most efficient and safe manner."
"Due to our ability to design and manufacture bend limiters in house, delivery time is greatly reduced....and have been designed with a simple and reliable hinged attachment system which significantly decreases installation time."
"umbilical splicing...allowed the King West project to save millions of dollars and months in delivery time by combining the existing BP Nile and BP King spare umbilicals."
"The Company’s customers include Shell; Amerada Hess; Marathon; ExxonMobil; Cal Dive; Devon; Anadarko; Texaco; Chevron; British Petroleum; Kerr McGee; Unocal; Noble Energy; Cameron and Aker Kvaerner, among others."
"The Company is not dependent on any one customer or group of customers."
"Deep Down has an established track record of introducing new products and product enhancements."
"We plan to meet our cash requirements in 2007 with cash generated from operations. We will continue to expand our product line offerings, and we are projecting to spend approximately $250,000 to expand our rental fleet and approximately $150,000 to develop new products."
