Was looking good for a bit but sells once again have taken over buys.
Mike Velings is founder and managing partner at Aqua-Spark, a global investment fund based in the Netherlands. The group seeks to invest in sustainable aquaculture businesses that generate returns alongside positive social and environmental impacts.
“Aquaculture has the potential to be the best food system available to mankind,” said Aqua-Spark’s Velings. This vision defines Aqua-Spark’s fund management strategy. “What we are trying to do is build a large, global, public example of how you can be sustainable, healthy and affordable, with financial returns that are at least the same as when you do it in a more traditional way,” he said.
Investment money and or interest from Aqua Spark=0
Some of the same concerns facing investors are also deterring banks from financing small-scale or early-stage aquaculture companies. This is where CEI—the Maine-based firm—steps in, financing companies that have been declined commercial finance due to credit or collateral challenges. Often, these businesses have yet to achieve the scale and financial viability necessary to attract traditional modes of finance from typically risk-averse sources of capital. Unlike commercial banks, CEI operates as a non-profit organization and generally has the ability to take on more risk because they can lend capital from federal or state funds. The group provides vital capital required by young companies to commercialize their business.
Investment and or interest expressed from CEI=0
Indeed, the role of investment intermediaries is vital for moving this sector forward. By matching the varying capital needs of aquaculture businesses with the risk tolerance of investors, intermediaries can ensure that sustainable businesses receive the necessary financing to achieve scale.

SOMEONE SHOULD PUT NS IN TOUCH WITH THESE FOLKS VS GHS OH WAIT WHAT ARE THE ODDS THAT BOTH THESE COMPANIES AQUA SPARK AND CEI HAVE NEVER HEARD OF NS , SO WHY AREN'T THEY ALREADY INVOLVED ?
COULD WE REALLY BE ON THE CUSP OF AN INDUSTRY CHANGING PROCESS AND NOT BE BEING TALKED ABOUT IN ARTICLES JUST LIKE THIS ONE?
Wow just wow , thank you Helter that ought to keep me busy for days studying your d&d .
Trading one can play the action but investing has to make solid sense before it can make dollars and cents .
It might be if proven commercially profitable, thing is the timing was just such a life saver so far as the company is concerned they were in fact on their last leg . No matter how good a tech is its worthless unless proven profitable much less trying to prove such in the hands of a poorly run company . Everyday that passes,inspite of all the reasons that can be pondered bodes ominously for shareholders, NS has been at this a long,long time longer than any longs here and the broader market recognizes this and demands substantial news time has come to deliver just as with any endeavor there comes a time to stop throwing good money after bad.
I'd suggest NS takes a serious look at addressing their management and PR issues before the market dies it for them , as I've said before no reason to be trading here if the tech is actually profitable except for lousy management.
I agree the patent was worth an appropriate pr effort that it simply didn't receive, in my view the responsibility ultimately lies with the captain , I can't blame the market for not valuing the patent, that responsibility lies in the incompetent hands of management. Why in the world do you allow such an achievement to fall flat on . Any competent management team would be riding that patent news to the moon and taking its shareholders with them vs kicking us out on the curb
Might want to go look at those they don't look good at all and only go to prove that delgado knows how to work the otc
That's just it Helter, these data points are the only metric shareholders can gauge the progress of an R&D company they are invested in. The circus show we have going on right now is a direct result of the company withholding material information from its shareholders that has resulted in a severe collapse of the sp post patent news.
I don't want to hear about having to keep it confidential for potential deals that's nonsense.The report was withheld to keep the sp down for the GHS deal and that's some real nonsense right there, in my opinion it shouldn't even be legal.
Had they given the market the harvest report we would be trading at least .75 if not a 1.00 + I put that on management and to tell you the truth it greatly disturbs me off.
How can we trust a company that witholds material information from its shareholders ie..,(you know the ones paying the bills) to enter into toxic financing that further dillutes the shareholders, it was all there in the S-1A and more dated 3-1-19 , not to mention having already significantly increased the share count from a year ago.
I don't wanna hear about buy outs, licensing deals or expanding into other states because that's nonsense too.
NS,isn't looking for a buy out,its not looking for licensing deals or expanding into other states not anytime soon.
No buy out,licensing opportunities,or expansion into other states until you have proven yourself commercially viable and that's a full year of production. I'm not expecting any deals other than finally being able to supply local grocery stores and restaurants.
They blew the momentum by withholding the harvest report which would have allowed the market to assign at least a preliminary value to the patent but nope all that out the window.
Any and all deals they could possibly make are with entities that they've long been in contact with some go back years, now how could they take so long to finalize ...,
Peter the unofficial spokesman puts news months and months out, the company puts revs 10 to 12 months out...., sounds like this ole can is getting kicked down the road a bit.
My take is they want to go it alone and open up the first out of state locations themselves and that's going to take time maybe a couple years at the earliest.
If its not an out and right scam (yup I'm guilty of still being up on the hope) then I could see that move ultimately adding value for a buy out as well as encouraging licensing interests, unfortunately reality is a buzz kill and will have its way more often than not. A company can screw perfectly loyal longs 7 ways to Sunday in actions that are good for the company but not so much the retail shareholders as we've already witnessed with the GHS deal.
So when CarJockey dropped by and said she saw your D&D I had to dig deeper, not that the harvest data lie and I quote, NO ONE WE TALKED TO EVEN ASKED US ABOUT THE HARVEST NUMBERS..,wasn't a slap in the face for a wake up call in and of itself.
Really the harvest results bore no significant interest in evaluating the effectiveness of your technology, nobody asked ?
You lieing shrimp huckster you to this day, I I pull my hair out over this comment.

NaturalShrimp Incorporated Announces Expansion of Indoor Shrimp Operations
PR Newswire
LA COSTE, Texas, June 15, 2015
LA COSTE, Texas, June 15, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- NaturalShrimp Incorporated (OTCQB: SHMP) reports that it will begin expanding its current indoor shrimp production system to launch commercial shrimp sales in August of this year. Wholesale prices for the shrimp produced by the company will be between $9.00 to $10.00 per pound F.O.B.
"Over the past few years NaturalShrimp has grown its research, development and understanding for indoor shrimp production well beyond even our own expectations", said NaturalShrimp President Gerald Easterling. "Combining new water technology with our experience in growing shrimp has brought us to another positive milestone for the company. We look forward to expanding our operations beginning in the third quarter of this year."

Reason why I say its risky , we are in 2019 awaiting news what news might that be..., you
guessed it, confirmation of the same projections issued in 2015!!! Commercial viability.
Sound familiar the skepticism here isn't born out of nothing it is in actual fact, based on the very actions of the company itself. Click on the 5 year chart provided right here on the board page, see the jump up in 2015 then what happened, the market rallies behind the stock but the company failed to deliver its lofty projections and the share price collapsed !
As an investor I must take all this into serious consideration, how foolish would it be to allow myself to be blindsided by not taking documented facts into consideration that were just sitting there in plain view of D&D.
Now this stock has to prove itself and the radio silence punk-tuated by fluff PR's doesn't bode well for my confidence, as I say there's no reason for any deals to take so long to sign they've been in contact with all those folks for years.
How the heck could you honestly even put out a pr expecting commercial shrimp sales by August of 2015 when in the contemporary reality of April 2019 your still 10-12 months out from this achievement.
Hell i'll tell ya how you lie your tail off that's how.
Once bit twice shy, and in this case management has bitten shareholder more than once.GLTA
Bar chart has it as a 32% sell up from last weeks
Interpret the S-1 how you want.
The issuance of shares pursuant to the GHS financing agreement may have a significant dilutive effect.
Depending on the number of shares we issue pursuant to the GHS Financing Agreement, it could have a significant dilutive effect upon our existing shareholders. Although the number of shares that we may issue pursuant to the Financing Agreement will vary based on our stock price (the higher our stock price, the less shares we have to issue), there may be a potential dilutive effect to our shareholders, based on different potential future stock prices, if the full amount of the Financing Agreement is realized. Dilution is based upon common stock put to GHS and the stock price discounted to GHS’s purchase price of 80% of the lowest trading price during the pricing period.
GHS Investments LLC will pay less than the then-prevailing market price of our common stock which could cause the price of our common stock to decline.
Our common stock to be issued under the GHS Financing Agreement will be purchased at a twenty percent (20%) discount, or eighty percent (80%) of the lowest trading price for the Company’s common stock during the ten (10) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date on which the Company delivers a put notice to GHS.
GHS has a financial incentive to sell our shares immediately upon receiving them to realize the profit between the discounted price and the market price. If GHS sells our shares, the price of our common stock may decrease. If our stock price decreases, GHS may have further incentive to sell such shares. Accordingly, the discounted sales price in the Financing Agreement may cause the price of our common stock to decline.
We may not have access to the full amount under the financing agreement.
The lowest closing price of the Company’s common stock during the ten (10) consecutive trading day period immediately preceding the filing of this Registration Statement was approximately $0.229. At that price we would be able to sell shares to GHS under the Financing Agreement at the discounted price of $0.1824. At that discounted price, the 16,876,540 shares would only represent $3,078,280.00, which is below the full amount of the Financing Agreement. We have previously registered 20,000,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.016 per share representing $ 320 ,000 .00 under the Financing Agreement, which is far below the full amount of the Financing Agreement.
We Needed Additional Capital, and the Sale of Additional Shares, Equity and Debt Securities Resulted in Additional Dilution to Our Stockholders.
We recently required additional cash resources due to changed business conditions or other future developments. These resources were insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, so we sold additional equity or debt securities or obtained one or more credit facilities. The sale of these securities resulted in additional dilution to our shareholders. The future sale of additional equity securities could result in additional dilution to our stockholders and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect your rights as a Common Stock holder.
In order for the Company to continue its business operations and provide growth to its shareholders, the Company requires financing in the form of debt, equity, credit and other forms of financing. As of September 19, 2018, the date of effectiveness of the Company’s Form S-1 Registration Statement, the Company had 87,056,880 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. As of the date hereof, the Company has 296,807,419 shares of common stock issued and outstanding (the “Outstanding Share Increase”). A significant portion of the Outstanding Share Increase and dilution therefrom is a result of the financing transactions the Company has entered into in connection with and in furtherance of the Company’s business operations as disclosed herein and in the Management Discussion and Analysis section of this Form S-1 Registration Statement. The Company’s issuance of additional convertible promissory notes, common stock purchase warrants, or common stock will continue to increase the amount of shares of common stock issued and outstanding and thereby dilute our shareholders.
Oh shermann, one should never Assume the financial realities of others and in this game one should never ever mock the poor,least one find themselves in financial ruin, you know what they say about karma lol
Ok cherry , why don't you tell me how good toxic financing is again. You dispute NS's own filings trying to sell the misguided notion that GHS wants to do anything but immediately sell the shares C'Mon tell me some more
You mean like trying to say he said 2 months lol.
Lol jeeez ....no shame its lost 80% from its high can't even hold .20 and will see lower this week no matter how are its pumped
Said the same years ago
Barchart gives a 32% sell is that a buy?
Risks Related to the Offering
Our existing stockholders may experience significant dilution from the sale of our common stock pursuant to the GHS financing agreement.
The sale of our common stock to GHS Investments LLC in accordance with the Financing Agreement may have a dilutive impact on our shareholders. As a result, the market price of our common stock could decline. In addition, the lower our stock price is at the time we exercise our put options, the more shares of our common stock we will have to issue to GHS in order to exercise a put under the Financing Agreement. If our stock price decreases, then our existing shareholders would experience greater dilution for any given dollar amount raised through the offering.
The perceived risk of dilution may cause our stockholders to sell their shares, which may cause a decline in the price of our common stock. Moreover, the perceived risk of dilution and the resulting downward pressure on our stock price could encourage investors to engage in short sales of our common stock. By increasing the number of shares offered for sale, material amounts of short selling could further contribute to progressive price declines in our common stock.

You too and good on ya , but do yourself a favor stop watching it everyday chances are its going to break your heart before it makes you fall in love again.
Hey hey I was calling for a chartist in the house last week, Yup its coming alright .You've heard of a widow maker right well this tickers a long maker.
18's came sooner than I thought, question is will the market stomach another fluff PR and to stir up a hopium rally before the slide to .15 and below I'm inclined to think so, I don't often predict because its embarrassing to be wrong lol, but my gut tells me we have some traders tied up who'll gtfo at any pop to .20 on Monday & closes back in the low .18's and hello 17's on Tuesday beginning the slide to .15.....,
that being said watch it jump to .25 on Monday lol, and a slide replaced with a drop.
Damn wish they were publicly traded.
A million shares...., which is why your opinion doesn't matter ....,posting everyday just shows your sweating the SP. No need to brag when you could have doubled your position and have bags of cash on the side . None of us will ever forget this stock, for failing to follow trading rules , if it blows up you'll know you could have doubled up had the rules been followed and if crashes I mean drags out for a couple years then you'll know you could have sold and grabbed a sidelines seat till the action starts up again.
Risky play that gets more and more certain each day that substantial news fails to be delivered.
Let them dream, after all its totally possible after the Reverse splits we'll need to do to clean up the share structure, contrary to popular belief companies hate whales with millions of shares held since the trips .
Long term they drag you down by clogging up trading like what we see today ,ultimately the volume just dries up and forces the hand.
Absolutely a couple of years I agree , 5 dollars whew thats the perfect scenario situation for sure but highly unlikely that the share structure would remain intact for one and two we don't have a company with a history of playing out perfect scenarios for the shareholders .
You heard it , power11 says it's a $5.00 stock in the lurking guess I better mortgage the house raid the kids inheritance and go all in then.
Question is do they not know it as you say or simply just don't believe it, the broader market is well just that, a reflection of a broader perspective that can be read in the SP. The market isn't buying the hype fight it all you will but the house wins when first we try and fight the trend.
Like right now nobody wants to pay .191 they want it cheaper , MM'S need to walk it down to a tradable range before we lose the volume all together. Correction nobody wants to pay .19 lol
longs don't post day to day , but nervous longs do day in and day out. Is there a reason for it, you bet there is .
Love the name btw, but but but I just posted NS own guidance where it comes to GHS , no hold long it's in their best interest to sell immediately and that may cause the sp to fall read the S-1a . Listen folks every pos deserves as many chances as the market is willing to give it, but that doesn't give the company the right to BS us, so NS has to prove itself if the SP is to stay up in this range.
Folks that's going to take some time, the lower SP is on the way be patient. If you love NS and liked the 18's save a little powder for the real base down below......cheap shares for all coming up.
Remember longs hoard shares and perpetuate fluff, traders shine the sobering light of reality through the Otc BS fluff to find a fair valuation for all to place their bets on.
Rrrrrrr you Rrrrrrrready to TuuuuuumBle!!!!!
Thank you ...,bookmarked
Could be..., we've gone over this before there is a sweet spot when does it end ?
Are you kidding me , you guys would run hog wild if they pr'd loi's with local grocery stores the market would love it , like I said doesn't have to be binding lol
Sell in may and go away , I hadn't put that in my thoughts , tell me my friend what is that nifty saying a reference to?
Well now that doesn't jive with what the longs are saying lol. Are they giving us the shuck and jive over here.
No I know I've heard it all before, restaurants local grocery stores they've all been waiting, some for years and years fact of the matter is theres no good reason at all a quality product couldn't be sold and there's even less reason for NS not to tell the share holders who are flipping the bill what the hell your doing with the shrimp.
We aren't investing in giving the shit away ,so what gives ? Oh top secret right horse shit we are getting played and they've done it before ,now we are another year out to revs ,what are we at nearly twice the share count of a couple years ago, where will it be in 10 to 12 months probably more right.
Some talk of expanding into other states over the next year, well how are they going to be able to do that if NS its self doesn't expect revs for a year?
Partnerships on a system you don't expect to show being commercially viable untill revs come in. Who's going to plop down 3 million on a setup the company doesn't yet have sales to prove is profitable ?
How long does it take to get even a non binding loi out of any of these local grocery stores , much less whole foods. We should have a stack of loi's to PR at this point and we got nothing except entertaining share holders with potential JV's of whom we can't even get an Loi out of or aren't willing to tell us about.
You all know what an loi is right , its just a generally non binding letter of interest that's as simple as..., I'm interested in coming to an agreement in buying a portion of your harvest when available.
If I were running the pr department you'd be getting one every week .
104k cheapies on the ask C'mon buy buy buy , where's the pompoms rally up , all our daily longs cant muster more than a lousy 2900 on the bid . That says it all right there doesn't it ....you've been exposed for being common hucksters. C'mon slap the ask I thought .25 were cheapies.
Awesome you have integrity, how about the rest of ya Cherry are you buying what your selling ?
Somebody call a doctor ....is there a chartist in the house!!! what a bunch of scammers, buy buy buy but none of you are buying lol , are we going back to 19 are you buybuybuy longs going to let that happen its time to put up or shut up.
Pumpers please stop with the pumping if your not actively buying, my lord the sp can't even hold the .23 support now. Stop pumping and buy its a bargain at these prices right ? Or are you all a bunch of hucksters?
They sell to local restaurants, ok great that's a start . What are the revs from selling to local restaurants? How many pounds were sold and at what price ?
Let me guess no available data from the company right, again no problem I dont mind digging for D&D do you know the names of any restaurants that have bought the shrimp ? I'll call them up and talk with them surely when the guys were out to visit the facilities if a local restaurant had their shrimp on the menue they would have told those guys to check out them out.
Hell if I was the company and ya come all the way out from Florida id say lets go to lunch we just sent an order out to joes shrimp shack and your in for a treat.
I'd agree if the public thought there was no hope for success but one must remember so long as they can sell hope, shares can be sold and as long as shares can be sold salaries can be paid.
Now if any of us went to our loved ones and tried to get funding for the last many years we would have worn out those relationships .
Oh lord the clay thing , clay posts on stocks that have had significant action and at the end of evey vid the guidance is the same " will the sp hold "
I've never heard him say hey folks chart says we should rise tomorrow or fall.
Someone is always loading up there can't be winners without losers but the truth of the matter is we have had far, far more days where sells out numbered buys and today is no different more selling than buying despite all the pumping or the companies recent news, we should be climbing beyond .25 not struggling to hold support in the 23's .
Seriously does anyone know what they do with the shrimp that are not given away.
