Yeah..ARRGHH!! Like missing the chance at Facebook under $20, then staying with it for years. Netflix down a little on earnings...didn't blow out the numbers... I am a subscriber though..recently binge watching on Better Call Saul and Shameless..
Netflix reports after the bell... One of those stocks I should have been in all along.. Big banks all report this week too and FAS is down at 41-42 ..i think banks are right where they want to be..cept maybe Wells ..trump and wall st and banks are getting real cozy..Goldman Sachs is 10% off its high...so Im in FAS for the week hoping for a 10 % pop ...my retail getting punished as expected but off lows... BDIC one cent spread this a.m. good luck this week...
You two are as manic as me on this stock...take it easy. LOL... BDIC is my speculative stock..so its got 10% of my folio....you know..gotta have a speculative in your diversified folio...being I use interlock and know so much stuff I really dont want to know about the industry..Im here. Growing pains is what they're going through...balancing productivity with debt ..but youre right..the growth is there...60 soon.!!
yeah that 1.5 million new shares will dilute whatever the .eps turns out to be...last I looked it was -.03
Last couple days it appears big blocks of shares..well 5000-10000 ...have found a willing seller around .35 until that peters out this thing can't get out of its own way...
thats my hundred shares on the volume this morning...for some reason my limit order at .44 filled at .417 ..but thought I'd just see what would happen and it worked...and its prior to earnings...might not hold all day though..
what was the rub with sellers regarding earnings...??
Hope this opens for you guys..got it off BDIC twitter feed posted 5 days ago...all technicals..think it says what I was saying...hovering around the tip of a pennant flag pattern..waiting for catalyst to move it one way or the other..

ADP employment number of 280,000 jobs and the DOL report the next day of 85,000 or whatever it was....were way WAY off. I know one uses different metrics than the other but they usually are just off 10% or so different..not 280K to 85K really makes it more difficult to figure out market conditions...
BDIC numbers better come out this week and give this thing a kick in the butt or ...or....call to Wainer might be in order..
Oh must be Friday...always takes a dump to piss me off all weekend.
dude buy more under 20 ....this is going to 30 and beyond. their shit rocks..
Amazon getting a beatdown today and thats good for my goos. Whats your biggest gainer lately?
retail getting huge bounce and up day...BBY leading the way..love these beat down sectors punished by media and shorts..its not that bad.
retail getting huge bounce and up day...BBY leading the way..love these beat down sectors punished by media and shorts..its not that bad.
wait...back up the truck..why is my portfolio running up today...omg its a full day of up...
I agree with analyst Sobek that .40 is getting to be strong support..with resistance at .50.. today again the ask is at .52 yes...good positioning for the filings to hit. hey GOOS up again yesterday..
Well it was a good day til some Fed speak hit the wires spoiling the party...then algorithms walked the market down...market awful choppy lately...no bounce back for blow drive either...humbug..
Trump rally back on looks like...in my 15 years of trading this is a new phenomena ..
somebody just bought about 18,000 shares and took us up a penny...dont you just love that..?
yeah traders...ADP employment number knocked the cover off the ball. 100,00 0 more than expected and juiced the pre-market...gonna be a good day..even if BDIC is holding steady..
Will check it out... thanks...yes GOOS coats are super high end but I looked at rheir site and was blown away by the coats..they're gorgeous ....not all heavy coats...lighter wear too. Got the illuminate factor and buzz too yeah...I'm got in under 16 I think and saw strong volume up yesterday... Under Armor got a good Barron's bump and upgrade this morning..
Retail getting killed for months on end so why do I love retail so much?? bought the new IPO GOOS last week. They make high end fashion winter coats in Canada..retail got killed again today but GOOS up. look at their website and financials...maybe the early bird here too.. I bought Under Armor under $20 and Target under 53..both multi year lows..could get raped but I dont think Amazon takes all..
part 2 and all the states are so randomly different..its really too wide spread. In Washington the state patrol admins the whole program and some of the troopers jumped ship and joined the interlock companies ..and sit on the little board they have to drum up more rules. Costs are approaching $150 a month when all said and done per month. So most dead beat DUI losers..are gonna say fuck it and drive their uncles pickup around. It would take a whole culture shift and tons of support by legislators to change it. I would love to bring a lawsuit against the state and some of these vendors citing all kinds of violations. Post facto punishment, device procedure regs that trap the driver, too cozy of a conspiracy, excessive fees and costs etc. But the point is..need to make it easier and less costly to get another 1/3 of sentenced offenders onto the program.
heres something for us to chew on while waiting for earnings. ITs a MADD propaganda story but has some good facts..
I think theres close to 400,000 leased units actually nationwide..they say 300,000 and a billion dollar industry..probably low also. What everyone doesnt get is less that a 1/3 of restricted drivers actually follow through and get one installed. The rest skirt the law and a lot of them re-offend. They spend no time investigating those folks. But they do keep piling on fees and making more rules. And until they realize they need to make it easier to have one than not have one..that 1/3 wont get better. The devices have problems...they abort often, false positives are frequent, missed tests that constitute a violation even you blow seconds after the miss. All of which can put a person in jail if they're on probation. A lot of shit happens to innocent drivers that equal predatory business practices. The vendors and installers are seldom or never visited by any state inspector and can get away with collecting fees from
users and installing faulty devices

yeah so i just saw that on the NT they just released....so what are they saying....the quarter smashed last year quarter but it still looks measely?? thats ok...moving into positive cash flow over several quarters is a good thing.. Q1 and Q2 2017 should really be good. everything is going according to our plan..right?
I'm buying you a steak dinner.!! agree on so many points like its ok to have debt and negative metrics while scaling up. Doheny cut a sweet deal and not so good for us. I was figuring out what Q1 looks like... seems like reporting rules get lax on any company that wants it. so that puts out the report after the end of the next quarter...How they retire shares differently gets confusing to me..but if it lowers the pool of shares and makes them more attractive thats great. Wainer over emphasized that the debt the company took on would not be toxic to shareholders. So if a 25% rate and millions of shares..and..say so on what Wainer does with shares.isnt nasty debt, I'd hate to see what toxic debt really looks like. Must be syndicate loan sharks. See ..we just moved the stock up 8% on 10,000 shares on our expert analysis..
EARNINGS CALL Me thinks I've been straying from topic a bit so lets speculate about the big important call that even pinks have to announce. If they have 2700 units leased at $100 a pop (company rep info) and their take is about 75-80% of that..they should be clearing $200K a month or about $600K a quarter lease income.Not bad huh. If you have read their recent marketing activity you know they "lease" out the brand and equip to a contractor(s) ..so they get a franchise fee for those territories..think they just did one in the great state of Texas. So thats even more income thats hard to put your finger on. But its all good. They have been paying interest only on the loan but need to know how much of the line of credit from DG they're into or have they been using as much of that $600K they can..Why wouldnt they..this business has low overhead. Wainer and CFO not taking a huge salary or perks..in fact they're probably still out of pocket from start up costs. Adding another 1000 units soon is a huge step..adding 30% to the top line..how could their forecast not be stellar. this thing has such low volume that it might take 3-4 days for word to get out if its blowout earnings and gets the right reaction. It might catch the eye of a big fish investor or broker and volume could really pick up. Hope its got lots of details. Now... Headwinds??
They make all the parts in China and do some assembly with their own techs at their own facility in cali..so theres that..a lot seems to depend on their orders and sourcing of parts..overseas communist manufacturer..delays possibly in that chain..but dont see any other problems.We do need an update on how they are targeting states and any more state approvals ..and they did move into new office/warehouse space that probably increased spending there ..but good they got that done now. We will see...like Buffett said .."never met a man that could predict the stock market" but ..FINGERS CROSSED!!!
Level 2 with Scottrade is just $10 a month but I haven't activated it. I've heard it's more entertaining to watch level 2 than helpful...and I already spend too much time staring at all my watchlists. You probably have a war room set up with more than a couple monitors going at once and keep quite active trading.. Sounds fun for sure.. I'm in careful mode ..I might do 30 trades in an busy month..usually quick intra-day trades on a 3X ETFs like JNUG or RUSL.. FAS is another one that up until lately went up every day. I've stayed out of earnings call gambles. Look at what LULU did last week. I like ETFs ...they don't have volatile earnings calls, CEOs that do stupid shit, accounting irregularities with SEC investigations, etc.. They say "there's an app for that" ..well there's an ETF for that with a basket of stocks for just about anything now. Yeah they do decay as time goes on but they also have a sweet spot I like to try to ride that lasts for weeks/months..like XIV over the last year.
I went to Nerd Wallet and got a rundown of everyones fees..link below.. I'm definitely in the wrong brokerage house...Interactive Brokers has $1 trades with $10,000 balance!?? gotta be a catch or minimum activity.. I see Ameritrade is matching scottrade fee to keep clients.. I dont need a lot of in-depth charting and analysis..I do like recent news being available and fast trades. Lowering fees for me from 7-5 would help I guess..gonna check out IA about the $1 trade..I am used to staying above $25K account balance to get the day trading power...but havent used margin is quite a while.

4.99 per trade is real decent.. The recent events of two..maybe three?..companies lowering transaction fees is a real good thing for traders and us home gamers. Ive been with Scottrade from the beginning..since two competitors recently lowered their rates to what was it?? $4.99 or something there abouts..it took down Etrade 4 points.. Scottrade is being bought out by Ameritrade and the deal goes down soon. They havent lowered their fees and think they're at 8-9 or even $10.00 a trade..whatever the case...I'm moving out of Scottrade or leave a small..almost dormant account there so I dont have to close it. One thing a trader does NOT like to do...go back and tally up transaction fees ..right?..so if I could trade around $5 per shot I would move..
at 44.9 I am even steven on this puppy...so as long as we stay in the 40-50 range all is good. If the Doheny Group wants to dump some non restricted shares they're going to have to find a buyer...and a big one at that..and at probably same or even higher share price...I think its in their interest to wait if they can or will..lets not be scared of it. With so many metrics showing double digit growth in all or most categories..this could be seen as undervalued..I say its a $1 stock..
Dang it...well..fun while it lasted..
bid now at .50 !!! first time Ive seen the ask/bid spread at .01 cent
Blow baby Blow!!
Our hero...a Mr. Lawrence Wainer, has been quiet quiet for a while...need to hear some juicy news.
More like $12.50 for 25 shares and about $10 for pink sheet commission ...probably a feeble attempt to move the price...real feable..
retail getting juiced today by ??? Was it Restoration Hardware guiding up? Maybe the street thinks if folks are buying high end home stuff out in the stores that retail aint doing that bad...
Yeah baby...bid just moved up to .45 45-52 spread...cool huh..
got in yesterday...4 year low on Target is way oversold. They need to lose the groceries and add more fast moving merchandise.. The stores are new and crowded in my metro area...starbucks inside some stores helps..Target is still viable as the neighborhood store with reasonable mid range items.
Yes indeed....3500 shares bought at the ask price today is a good sign. I think you and Sobeck and myself are the only three shareholders...in the UNIVERSE?...that are really interested at our level in this company. YAhoos BDIC message board hasn't had a post in four months or so and then most of them are auto postings from mass messaging ads. Our little secret...getting in on the ground floor...I like it.
started a position under 16...just because..now I will go do DD
