'Deformation' is a new word to me. Could you give me a definition?
Also, if you think this is a great little company, I think you should buy somemore stock. Fast Eddie still has millions of shares he would LOVE to get rid of.
Made a little money here early on when the fake faith healer/reverand Ortez was 'Fast Eddies' front man. Other posters at the time convinced me that this whole thing was a scam and I got out with a profit.
I don't spend a lot of time here. Posted a few times yesterday, the first time in quite a while. Because people were good enough to warn me of this scam, I come back occassionally to try & warn other people. Won't do much good now, tho, 'cause everybody that's left have already lost about their entire investment......
Fake bounces between .0001 - .0002 for awhile here, then oblivion.
So.....that's my reason.
Not nearly as much as you.....
Agree. Goodbye.
You seem to like 'Fast Eddie' Vakser. Watch for his next scam and get into that one, too.
See ya!.......
In the very near future the TDEY ticker symbol will just quietly dissappear. You'll type in the ticker symbol soon and get the message there's no such symbol.
Not too far off.......You'll sooner or later have to really face it: YOU WERE SCAMMED and it's really all over here. Wishing - hoping, even praying = none of it will help. Face reality.
At this point it doesn't matter if you change your mind or not. You're stuck with however many shares you own. You wouldn't be able to sell them even if you wanted to because there are no buyers.
AND....if there are any buyers, 'Fast Eddie' has millions of shares to sell at .0001, in line in front of you.
So at this point you are nothing more than a 'bagholder', who held on the th bitter end. And it is the end. This one is history.
If you look around, tho, you can probably buy into 'Fast Eddy' Vakser's next scam, which will probably be a professional womens soccer league or some other goofy idea.
That's probably the most ridiculous scenerio that I've ever heard in almost 50 years of investing...TDEY ( or TURD, which is much more fitting) will never see .0003 again, let alone .035.
Possibly you are from a state that has legalized pot. That could explain your post......and your continued misguided hope for this POS.
This was nothing more than a Vakser scam that most people saw thru early on....nothing but bagholders left now. .0001 and NO BID. IT'S OVER.
No buyers left - only BAGHOLDERS (empty bags now.)
It's all over here, thankfully. MANY of us tried to warn for well over a year. Just wondering who ended up being the FINAL BAGHOLDERS, how much they lost, and how many kids won't be going to college because of this scam.
'Fast Eddy' Vakser and the fake faith healer/minister (Ortez) are probably laughing all the way to the bank.
This scam never had an office, never had a phone number (except for Vakser and (earlier) Ortez cell phones), never had ANYTHING but BS press releases. Unbelievable how many fell for this one.....
Huh?? The chart looks good?
Are you possibly looking at it upside down?
Anyone who would 'load' here would have to be crazy.
Another scam promotion picked up the BRZG shell and is starting a cow scam. This is all BS.
I guess some people didn't lose enough in the old Brazil Gold and want to give away more money on this ridiculous cow venture scam.
Good luck to you. You'll need it.
Apparantly NO ONE thinks anything positive will come out of either of those 2 presentations or this thing wouldn't be tanking day after day after day......
It will take more than 'presentations' to turn this turd around.
Yes, if both things you suggest were to happen, it would undoubtedly raise the stock price.
But.....what if neither of your scenerios come to pass? What will THAT do to the stock price?
It's great to look at the bright side, but there is, unfortunately, also a possible 'dark' side.
Stock is in steady downtrend with no end in sight, probably because big share holders (who are apparantly dumping) just MIGHT know something none of us know. Something maybe not so good. There has to be a reason for this stock price collapse. And you have to admit, not matter how much faith you have in this stock, this really IS a stock price collapse. Lost about 80% from its recent high. Even at this price, this stock is no better than a crap shoot.
The REAL reason for reverse stock splits is to crank up the printing press and dilute more.
Also, watch for a 'secondary offering' VERY SOON.
This is NOT good news, people. Reverse splits are usually a LAST RESORT for companys with one foot in bankruptcy and the other foot on a banana peel. They can hipe it any way they want - 'uplist' - whatever. I think this will be below 2 or 3 bucks within 30 days or less. We'll see.
All the 'smart money, even all the 'kind of smart money' have dumped out of this turd.
No one left here but BAGHOLDERS as this POS spirals down to fraction of a penny. Don't look at a 1 year chart here after eating a big meal. Not advisable.
Some poster here talked me out of buying this about a couple months ago. I don't remember who it was, but THANK YOU.
Lawsuits have ONLY BEGUN here. This one will enrich many attorneys.
Longs here can hope and pray all they want, but it won't do any good. This one's history. Seen these 'death spirals' before, and 99% of them all end up the same - - - .0001, then NO BID.
What's all the talk about 24? That sounds like pie in the sky right now, with the Dow seeming like it will NEVER have another down day.
What's wrong with 17 or 18, much more attainable and more in the realistic relm.
September is never generally a good month for the market. With a little luck, it won't be this year, either.
Good luck to all. Although all the markets are grossly overbought, markets have a way of staying that way for extended periods. Looks like I may buy a little more Monday morning as the Dow futures right now are showing a spike up at the open. But there's hours to go yet.
You've been a pumper of this turd even when I got out a year ago. You must REALLY be a big loser here (unless you are an employee.)
If all you say were REALLY true, this stock would be selling for MUCH MORE than a little over a 'penny.' It's within a few clicks of it's yearly low, and even their BS press releases about toy store contracts can't raise the stock price. Why? Because all but the mentally impaired investors see this for what it really is - AND ALWAYS HAS BEEN = a SCAM. But you hang in there (I notice a little change in you posting name - but the 'luvsome' is still there.) Try to keep rah! ray!ing the unwary into buying into this scam.
Even after a second reverse split you'll probably still think this is the place to be. I remember you posting once you were wealthy and could afford losses. Just remember - many others on this board AREN'T wealthy and CAN'T afford losses........
Well, Mr. Howell, I see you are still here.....
I bailed out of this turd (scam) after the reverse split and was PLEASED to get out at .41 (at a loss, of course.)
That was many months ago....I see these crooks running this scam are still out with phony BS press releases - just like a year ago. A new crop of investors now - unaware that this is - and ALWAYS WAS - nothing more than a scam. But you and I were around from the early days and know what's going on here. I'll get hate responses, but who cares. I see this turd is very close to it's yearly low.
I smell ANOTHER reverse split (although the SEC does start to take notice on the second reverse split) before the end of the year.
Please, everybody, take heed. This is a SCAM run by crooks. DO NOT invest your kids college money here or they'll end up working at MacDonalds. This stock is no more than a dilution machine - and run by very unsavory characters. Believe me.
ANY AND ALL who buy in here - or hold here - will end up being permanent BAGHOLDERS (EMPTY BAGS.)
Are there theives running this company?
They sell off over 700 mil of Gulf of Mexico assets yet there liabilities (debts) don't go down and there cash on hand doesn't go up.
What happened to the money? I've got a pretty good idea, but would like to hear what others think.....
This is probably the WORST management team in the oil & gas exploration and drilling sector. Bought in 3 times and now have an average price of 5.61. Hopefully writing monthly covered calls will eventually get me to a point when I can get out of this turd close to even.
Good luck to everybody.
TURD :) .0001 (Much more appropriate)
ALL tdey press releases are BS.
I can't believe there are still people that fall for 'Fast Eddys' made up, phony press releases. If there was even a GRAIN of truth to any of that BS the stock certainly wouldn't be selling for .0001.
There's being gullable, then there's just not even having a clue of what's really going on here and falling for tdey press release lies time after time AFTER TIME.
Bagholders = that's all that's left here. Stuck with however much stock they own. Can't sell. Can't get out. Can't even admit THEY FELL FOR A SCAM. Anyone here still "hoping" or "praying" that this slime will turn around are really delusional and would be better off playing marbles with their five year old kid than investing in penny stocks.
'Fast Eddy' got you people. But then...that's what he does. After all, he IS a convicted stock fraud felon. Stock scams are what he and his ilk do. And they keep doing it because there are mentally impaired investors out there that still fall for his goofy scams. Remember the womans professional football league scam? That one was 'Fast Eddy' at his best. Not even TDEY can come close to that one.
This scam is finally flushing down and going thru the Dallas sewer system, where it belongs. Maybe some carp will feast on it.
ALL still holding here are PERMANENT BAGHOLDERS now, unable to sell. 'Fast Eddie' has probably 100 million shares lined up ahead of everybody, and he'll be selling at market, just like today. 8 mil shares traded, ALL at .0001, until the day comes that there's no more bids. That's how these sub-penny scams finally die and fade away. Not far off.
'Fast Eddie' needs to get deported back to his home country, Ukraine. Let the Ukrainians/Russians deal with him now. If he tried pulling a scam like this in Ukraine he'd of got his head chopped off. Also, don't forget the fake preacher/faith healer Ortez deserves some stockholder wrath here, also.
Many, including me, have been posting for over a year that this was nothing but a scam. No office - no super bowl adds, no Apple app, and on and on and on. ALL fake PR BS, with the smooth talking Ortez dishing it out to all the unwary believers.
If it has all that going for it in the not too distant future one would think it would be selling for much more than 75 - 80 pennys a share.
I believe that - someday - all the things this company is trying to accomplish to help people with spinal injury - all that will happen -= but I'm sure it won't be THIS company that will do it. It will be a much bigger, MUCH better financed outfit than this one. and an outfit without the blemished past this one has. If I remember correctly, ONE OF this companys past presidentS was notorious for issuing himself shares and then selling them DAILY. I believe he also retired for 'medical' reasons, only to show up at another medical upstart company AND continued selling NVIV shares. Wasn't exactly reassuring for the shareholders at the time. Maybe you were around back then. I was in and out of this stock one time during that period, made ALMOST enough money in the trade to treat myself to MacDonalds (dollar menu, tho.)I've been watching it off and on ever since.
Good luck here, tho. I'm afraid you'll probably need it. I know it's traded in the $4 - 5 range in the past (or close to it), but I don't think it will ever get back to those levels again. But I've been wrong before. For everybodys sake here, I hope I'm wrong again. Anyway, best wishes.
I don't think this one has near enough money to last until results come in, if it's going to take a couple more years. Of course they can keep diluting - they do seem to be very good at that. Successful trial results are NOT a slam dunk sure thing, either. This thing will go into oblivion if results are just so-so or worse. Nobody is mentioning that.
I almost bought this one a couple weeks ago. Glad I didn't. This is a 'crap-shoot' at best. Right up there with ACTC, another fledgling POS.
Looked up END you mentioned in your last post. Huh? Debt to equity: 455 - 1. Book value: -5.11 a share. You said it was a 'spec' investment. A spec - in spades, I would say. Looks to me like they have one foot in bankruptcy and the other foot on a banana peel......In the last 5 years they've lost over $10.00 a share. That level of losses can't go on much longer and there is no turn around in sight. But---I'm sure you must be seeing something I'm missing.
Anyway, good luck to you with it. Might be good for a 5 - 10 cent 'scalp' trade, but long term....I don't think so.
Getting back to HERO (not exactly living up to its ticker symbol, is it?) if it cracks 3 there will be a wave of margin call selling, and it will very quickly get pushed down to 2 1/2, so lets hope it holds above 3.
Maybe they should take the nearly 1 billion cash they claim to have and pay it toward the debt - unless it's a fudged number.
Anyway, I bought more at 5.25 today and will add more on every subsequent 50 cent drop (next buy: 4.75.
Yeah, I agree. This kind of looks like a dilution machine to me, and not much more.
Could even be a scam, who knows. I haven't bought this yet - watching only. Think I'll look elsewhere. There's got to be better ones around than this one.
Thanks for that post. You probably save me some money.......
BIG hit coming tomorrow (unfortunately.) Bought in today at 5.81.
Glad I sold some Aug. 6 calls. Will make up for at least 18 cents (after commission) of tomorrows expected drop.
Looked at the reported numbers - most seemed to be up for the first six months comparison to last year, but the second quarter compared to last year really sucked. Will take them a while to catch up the Gulf of Mexico revenue they sold off, maybe a couple more quarters, anyway.
If tomorrows drop is really brutal I'll add somemore. If it breaks 5, tho, it will mean additional margin call selling as the margin holders will have to come up with another 1/3 of the stock value to hold their position. Never thought I'd see this one below the mid 5's again....
A new management team might be good. Guys running this aren't exactly household names in the oil and gas industry.
Been watching for a buy in point here. Glad I've waited, Looks like this is possibly heading non-stop for .65 = or lower.
Got a 'good 'til cancelled' in for .72 as initial position. Been in and out several times here. I know most of you are long term holders here - recognize your 'handles' - which is fine, I have no problem with that - but I've always considered this a 'trading' vehicle instead of a long term investment. IF - and when - (if ever) this thing has positive trial results this could be a big winner. But right now.....it's all on the come. They've been involved with testing trials on and off now for quite a while. Some carried thru on, but, unfortunately, most not.
Anyway, good luck to all. Hope to be a 'long' here soon...... As soon as my order is filled would be a GREAT time for this to take off. I think someday all the things this company is trying to accomplish medically will be realized, but I DON'T THINK it will be this company that will do it. It will be a MUCH MORE well financed bunch that will do it. But there IS money to be made here, IF YOU TIME IT RIGHT.
A previous poster was right. All the small caps are being pounded right now. They are always the first ones to get hammered on a long, meaningful downtrend, which I think we're in right now. For a couple years now, the market has 'erupted' on anything that even sounded like good news. NOW, the market is spoofed on even a hint of bad news. I see a Dow 20% correction in the offing....and September is NEVER a good month for the market. I've loaded up on Oct. and Jan. '15 TZA (inverse) Russell 2000 calls, which are doing quite well at the moment,
Whatever idea is hot at the moment, MJ, bitcoins, whatever, you'll always find 'Fast Eddie' Vatsek peeking around the corner, figuring out a way to scam it.
With the sudden popularity of soccer all of a sudden in the U.S. (why, I don't know. I'd rather watch grass grow) I look for Fast Eddie to start a new scam involving soccer in some way, something like "The Big Breasted Womens Soccer League," or something like that. And another bunch of uninformed investors will buy into it.
I guarantee you there will be another Fast Eddie scam. TDEY wasn't the first and it won't be the last unless he's either put in jail or deported back to the Ukrain.
Hey, you are to be congratulated for maning up and admitting to the world you made a mistake. Very, very few people ever do.
I think there is probably a rosy future ahead for you in investing. You'll probably never again fall for a scam as obvious as this one. Many, many others here probably will again, tho.
One thing to keep in mind: about 95% of penny and especially sub-penny stocks are either outright scams OR have such a terrible business model they fail within 2 or 3 years withough ever generating any revenue (like TDEY). If you think that percentage number is far fetched, just go to your library and get a book on investing. All of them put the number between 90 - 98%.
Anyway, good luck to you.
Hilarious, I agree. Still amazed so many couldn't see this for the OBVIOUS scam it was, even when Ortez (the fake rev/faith healer) was made the figurehead to try to add some credibility to this turd.
It's too bad, tho, that a lot of people lost a lot of money here, and in most cases probably money they couldn't really afford to lose. But they fell for the ridiculous hype of the paid 'cheerleaders; posting here. I truely believe there was some 'boiler room' stuff going on here. In fact, I believe one of the early 'cheerleader' posters posting name was 'boiler room.'
Stock was up 100% yesterday - but it won't help any of the 'bagholders' here because if they wanted to get out at .0002 they weren't able to. "Fast Eddie" and his buddies have millions of shares lined up AHEAD of anyone trying to get out. Anyone still holding on here will lose everything. They are still able to buy, of course, but it's really doubtful if any of them will be able to sell. Last bid/ask ratio I saw was 40 - 1 on the ask side.
The sooner this is gone the better. GOOD RIDANCE.
Because I'm in an investment club that owns a small position and I couldn't talk them into selling it. Now, of course, they wish they had sold. Position is less than 1% of clubs assets, so it's no big deal. The other people in the club seemed like pretty intelligent people to me and I was suprised I was the only one that knew all along it was a scam.
Sometimes it's good to consider what other posters are saying in a negative way about a stock. There will always be 'cheerleader,' and they outnumber the critical posters usually by about 10 - 1.
Kind of surprised you weren't aware this was a scam. Several others besides me were constantly posting the problems here, some with links to prove their posts were not just bashing. Did you ever google Eddie Vatsek? You'll be surprised if you do. It's all there, all his other scams and everything. Did you know he started a sub penny stock scam promising to start up a somans professional football league? When it comes to scams, 'Fast Eddie' should be the poster boy for the most - and goffiest - scams.
Anyway, good luck to you. Glad you didn't get hurt bad here. Too bad a lot of others did.
'FAST EDDIE' STRIKES AGAIN!!!!!!
Another one (TDEY) of his scams gets to .0001.
Big question now is: will he reverse split - - and drag on the misery of the 'bagholders' here - or do the right thing and just let this scam die and be gone.
Because 'Fast Eddie' has NEVER been know to do the right thing - OR THE DESCENT THING - he'll probably reverse split it - 1 - 1000, of course.
Even die-hard believers here have to admit now: ALL HIS PRESS RELEASES WERE BS AND NOTHING EVER CAME OF ANY OF THEM.
Let the lawsuits begin........
Oh, whoever it was that posted wanting everyone here to go get a job, I'm very confortably retired, thank you, and there are no pictures in my posts = and I only post maybe three times a week here. Sounds like maybe the guy is a 'bagholder' here and is out quite a bit of his kids college money, so I understand his being pouty and a little upset and short tempered.
.0001 bid. Zombie is ready to stumble over the cliff (he-he).
Chalk up another 'Fast Eddie' scam that went under.
Tough luck, 'bagholders.' But many here tried to warn you. Whatever you have invested here is a 100% loss.
Maybe the 'bagholders (empty bags now)' here should get in touch with Ortez, the fake faith healer that seemed so genuine but was a total lying FRAUD and see if he could be talked into giving you people some of your money back. Doubt it, but you could try. Think he's a pastor in some church in San Antonio.
How EVERYBODY couldn't spot this as a scam is still a big surprise to me. It was just so crystal clear right from the gitgo. Investors still holding here have no business investing in stocks.It does take at least a little bit of common sense.
Don't bunch me in with the shorts.
Possibly the old rigs are better than the newer ones, just like appliances. All of the other companys in this field have newer rigs/fleets (or whatever) than HERO.
ANYWAY, nice to see its up today, the day before earnings.
Good luck to you. Was just repeating something I'd heard about HERO's stuff on Fox Business a while back, didn't mean to rustle anyones feathers.
I didn't mean to imply that a reverse split would do the shareholders here any good. I was simply trying to say that WITHOUT a reverse split this POS will probably be gone by the end of August. With a reverse split the agony (for the faithful still holding on) will just continue a bit longer, maybe an additional couple of months or so. Any stockholder holding on here will lose everything - - new buyers here will lose everything. It's pretty much that simple. Any reasonable person with the slightest amount of intelligence would have spotted this as a scam early on, even when the fake faith healer Ortez was running this show (with Fast Eddie pulling the strings and writing his scripts.)
Everything in your post was exactly right about reverse splits doing nothing to materialy help stockholders here. They are all toast. They probably all realize it, but just don't want to admit it. Tough to tell yourself you've been wrong. REALLY tough to admit to yourself that you fell for a scam.......and were scammed.
It's my understanding (someone correct me if I'm wrong) that most (if not all) of HERO's rigs and equipment are decades old and on the verge of becoming museum pieces.`Yet in the last year there was only a hint of management purchasing 1 or 2 new rigs (that haven't appeared yet.)
I've only got a couple thousand shares and am presently sitting on a 75 - 80 cent a share loss here.
This quarters earnings will NOT be good. I expect a couple cents a share loss, maybe even a bit more. Their last 2 or 3 news releases/reports have more or less vaguely warned of that.
But good luck to all here. It's always darkest before the dawn. I've got a 'good 'til cancelled' order to buy more at $3.75 if it gets down there. Poor earnings number could push it down to mid 3's rather quickly. Stock trading consistantly down right up to a day or two before earnings release is kind of scary, also.
YES!! One more thing to say.....this turd will be LONG GONE before the end of August unless "Fast Eddie" reverse splits it. I don't think he will because even he must realize NO ONE (except some die hards left on this board) believes his ridiculous news releases anymore.
I've been posting about this being nothing more than a scam for almost 2 years now, and was constantly belittled and berated by GM- tech and his ilk. By the way, anyone heard anything from him lately? He was the one that quipped: "This will be a life changer!" It sure was. It changed everyones dollars into sub-sub pennies.
Good riddance to this POS.
To all the bagholders here, one more last thing for you to think about: "Fast Eddie" is laughing all the way to the bank - - WITH YOUR MONEY.
I think I know a little more than you that I bought in today at 7.14. Yes, I was in and out of it before, too, several times. I'm not shorting the stock, tho., and I never did in the past. I think I know that a little more than you, too. I'm short the Russell 2000 (tza) but I never short individual stocks.
If you have a problem with my posts, hit the ignore button. That's what I just did with you. Think I catch a little anger in your post - don't know why, unless it's because you're behind quite a bit here
See ya.
