I agree with you one hundred percent, nimbustux...
Gosh, you make me cry, Red...You are my new hero...GO KBLB...
Excellent post, Rayo...
I just get tired of one conspiracy theory after another. Each week, we have a different song and a new dance to go with it.
We have so many reasons to be proud of what Kim and KBLB have accomplished, yet we are bombared with pessimistic negativity for unknown reasons.
Time to change the station. Look at the good not at what you think is bad. That will make you a whole lot happier....
GO RED...GO KIM...GO KBLB...
You said it perfectly, King. You stated, "add more shares building substantial long term wealth." You have nailed it on the head.
This stock is a long term hold, if you want to build TRUE wealth. Flipping will get you a nice, SMALL profit. Long term holders will make a ton more money.
Of course, as with EVERY investment, one must complete DD and make changes if anything drastically changes the outlook of the company. Those of us who hold long term will make great wealth....
Who cares????
Thanks, Romans...Great article. If the government does become interested in KBLB as I think they will, that makes me even more bullish on the company. Of course, I doubt I could be any more bullish on KBLB than I already am, but all things are possible.
I have said it a hundred times on this board, but you and I already know this. The time to load up is right now, because by mid-May or so, these prices will be in the rearveiw mirror....
Exactly...
Who's to say I won't get a job with IBM, GE, PG, etc....
I agree, King..es1 is right on again....
I am very glad too, Bridger...but the best is yet to come.
I believe in this company, and I plan on holding for five years or longer to get my target price. Of course, this is all contingent upon the outlook for the company. Should that change, then so would my holding period.
GLTY...GO KBLB....
AMEN, SILK....
By reading your response, I assume you never read other opinions....It is hard to avoid this, since this entire board is filled with the opinions of others. Zinc is just another one....
For those folks obsessed with dilution, commercialization of MS, and with information concering Big Red, ZincFinger posted this a few days ago. Please read if you are interested:
Re: Big Red
There haven't been that many opportunities for failures unless KBLB has been doing a lot of insertions it hasn't told us about.
The results of one of the first two rounds of ZF GMs was never announced. It was the one that was being done to Monster Silk worms (worms previously modified with the piggyBac) (the other of the first two rounds was done to LCWs (Large Commercial Worms).
IMHO it's very likely that that round was done to improve something about Monster SIlk that was making it difficult to commercialize. If so KBLB might well have not wanted to publicize it and draw attention to the fact that there had been a problem ("there was a problem, but we've just corrected it" PRs don't tend to go over well. Biotechs generally don't make such announcements because temporary problems in R&D are the rule, not the exception.)
Other than that, there haven't been any GMs so far "unaccounted for". Big Red is clearly a result of the multiple genetic insertions done last March. The results came a lot later than expected but then we don't know what was involved. After making the insertions they;d have had to take a few generations to breed them all into the same line(s) of worms but it seems to have taken longer than that would account for. Could have been any number of things: for example, LCW are very highly bred and, like most such commercial animals, not that hardy. They may have had trouble tolerating the foreign proteins and had to be interbred with non commercial silkworms (far more robust) to make them stronger. The point is, that we don't know but a few months longer than expected in biotech is no big deal at all.
ESPECIALLY since adding a whole complex of genes that have to all be very tightly regulated together (to keep the proper proportions of silk proteins or the structure of the silk won't be right) in less than one year is a phenomenal achievement (No one has ever come remotely close to doing that before). Such complex changed typically take a dozen years to accomplish IF they can be at all (frankly I don't know of ANY comparable achievements. Several companies have added multiple genes, but ones that act largely independently of each other. To add a set that has to be so tightly regulated together is, AFAIK, unprecedented.
So I really don't see any justification for saying a trial failed. The least favorable plausible interpretation IMHO is that Monster Silk had some problem that needed to be corrected and one of the first two ZF GMs was for that purpose and it worked (which would explain the timing of them starting the pilot project at this time: after correction of that problem (IF that conjecture is correct) they would have had to start ramping up the population again from scratch which would put them right about where they are now.
This company has only been in existence five or six years now and has made outstanding progress in that time (it takes most biotechs 12 to 15 years to get to their first product (and a LOT more dilution than KBLB has experienced).
Note that Big Red will be able to make use of the same facilities MS is using. So it will be able to have sizable samples available much earlier on. And they can even make early production runs of it using the exact same facilities (just use Big Red cocoons for a few days and keep the run separate). So Big Red could move forward a lot faster than MS has. (in fact may be as little as 8 to 12 months behind it IF there are no problems that need to be corrected or adjustments to suit customers.

That was excellent, Spider...
Well-said, Rayo....
Hi Sojomy,
Sorry if I misread your post. I do understand what your orginal topic is, but I think it will fade into the sunset as the company continues to grow and as it enters commercialization.
Once that happens, an entirely new myriad of topics will surface for everyone to banter back and forth. Every week, we have another crisis or concern. I am looking forward to see what next week's topic is.
First of all, I am not spouting off about anything regarding your topic. All I am saying that only Kim truly knows the truth, and he seems bullish about his company. All things seem to be moving in the right direction.
I am not ignoring any of your "facts" either. Do you not see that all of this stuff is just BS or as some like to call it, "HORSE DUST."
"I wish everyone would quit making up facts because they don't want to hear the truth!" What is the truth, according to you?
The only one who knows the truth is Kim Thompson and some of the scientists closely tied to the company's current programs.
Therefore, speculation abounds here. However, one can deduce "possible" positive scenarios. I believe the company is on track to achieve its goals this year of commercialization. I have no proof of this, but I can gather quite a bit of information from the PR's recently released. The news is positive, so my deductions are positive.
There are others here who look at this information negatively. Those are the folks who will miss the train when it pulls away from the station very very shortly.
Beleivers like me keep buying on weakness. Others choose another path. That is called investing.
Jazz,
Investors in KBLB are becoming more and more convinced that the company will succeed. They are beginning to comprehend the true potential of KBLB. Therefore, more and more are going along for the ride....
Carp,
These price targets were initiated by Joe Noel TWO YEARS AGO...Again...OLD NEWS...
Thanks, King...By the way, I just bought a new laptop computer, and it is so sensitive that the mouse is flying all over the place. I have been accidentally and prematurely hitting the Submit Post button before I finish, so sorry....
Brilliant observation, Nobody....GO KBLB!!!!!
Peach,
The only way the stock will decline in a meaningful way is if the pilot program for MS fails, and commercialization does not come to fruition.
EVEN IF this were to occur, I doubt it would reach the two's like you say. However, like the title of one of my favorite James Bond movies "Never Say Never," all is possible. Should it happen, I will back up the truck and load up.
Even if we would decline temporarilly, BR is coming right behind MS, and I sincerely doubt both would simultaneously fail to go to production.
No matter, I cannot understand something. When the stock was down in the three's, you complained because nothing was happening, no news, no postive movement in the share price. You said we would be in the two's very soon. Now, instead of being happy about all of the good news and the upward movement of the PPS, you complain that we will be back in the two's again.
What do you really want to happen? Do you want to see KBLB fail? What are your motives, and most importantly, why are you never contented with anything positive happening?
Hi KC,
You could be onto something. Dr. Joe Cunning is now an advisor to KBLB. He is the leading expert in the field of fibers and silks, and he has forty-five years of experience. Guess whom he worked for over the last thirty-years, DUPONT. Therefore, he has close ties with the company. Now he is with us.
Anyone who does not see the connection here is denying reality. I have said this all along for the last year or so. Dupont will be involved with KBLB somehow, as a partner etc.. Romans and Red both said it correctly. Kim would not be doing these trials with MS unless he had a supporter, one or more companies with big pockets just like Dupont.
Boy, I am sincerely glad that you are still here with us, KC....
Enjoy the ride...You earned it...
I agree with you totally, elichen....well-said....
Hi Peach,
I personally look at this PR as all positive. Others do not see it that way, and they want the stock to shoot to $1.00 on this news. No matter, this is important information.
However, do not worry. Bigger PR's will follow, and that will take the PPS higher. Load up, because even these prices will be history very very soon....
Such is investing in stocks and pennies...
Such is invessti
I disagree totally. Commercialization is very close. Once KBLB becomes a company earning money, that will change everything, and the stock price will follow. With time, we will leave penny land on our own without the need of panic.
That time is coming closer and closer...
Pedro,
As I have said countless times, there is no scam involved with KBLB. If there are folks out there in investor world who think there is, then they should stay away from the stock or sell it if they own it.
I do tire of listening to the never-ending soap opera of stories. There is no need to worry about any of this if one sells......
Pedro,
As I have also said cou
No, but I am longing.....
Thank you, Buehner...
Yankee,
The key line in the article is this, “KBLB” at these levels is a gift." I have been saying this for quite a long time. Thanks for the information....
Manshoon,
First, when did I EVER say that ANYTHING is a game? I have never ever used the word game.
Second, I can only buy as much as I can. For you to think I could buy everyone else's shares is a bit of a stretch. I am saying that if those guys want to sell, please let them. I and others will buy their shares. Plus, where did I ever say I would buy "ALL" of their shares?
Third, I am waiting for NOTHING. I have told you OVER AND OVER again that I am buying whenever funds are available. This means of investing is called dollar cost averaging. I loaded up twice last week, and I will continue to do so as long as the shares are so damn cheap.
There is no posturing involved here on my part, only in your mind....
AGREED.....
Gimme,
When, in your eyes, there is not much meat in what a CEO says, the time has come to make a decision.
I look at what this PR said, and I see nothing but postives. Others look at it and see nothing big. That is why investing is so hard. It is tough to make the big decisions.
I have made up my mind. Now it is your time and others to decide what to do. Some will make huge mistakes, and the rest of us will profit in this gem we call KBLB....
Manshoon,
I have said this at least five times, but I have been dollar cost averaging anytime the shares show weakness. I did not buy at .097. I waited for the shares to back down to current levels. I still say these prices will not be here much longer, so I bought some on January 29 and a big slug on January 31.
You see, I believe in this company, and I feel it will be very big some day. I have total faith and trust in Kim Thompson. Some people do not. Those are the folks who should sell. Anyone who invests in a company in which he/she has no faith in the CEO is a lunatic.
I will say it again. Anyone who has spare money and is looking for a once-in-a-life-time opportunity should buy shares of KBLB. Trust me, these prices will not be around much longer....
