Lamar was in 2nd place. Doesn't seem like anyone wants to win the MVP this year.
I don't feel so good Mr. Stark.
JUST IN: Owner of Brock Purdy to win MVP ticket has just sold it for $125,000 on @PropSwap.

The new buyer would win $202,000, which has odds, given his investment, of -162.
This is the largest deal in PropSwap history. Company negotiated 3% deal ($3,750) with seller. pic.twitter.com/A8tWXCCCIr
Updated the board and shareholder number count. If we're going to get this party started, this week or the next business week is the time to file. Let's see.
Saw the news today on otcmarkets regarding the board members - exactly what progress is being made on the "acquisition" - still on track?

I want to go to where backtoreality's at.
After the 1st half, I'm right there with ya.
We'll see what the Ravens do tonight...
...but if Joe Flacco's going to play like it's 2013, they might just be the team to beat. Only the Bills have a case as a hotter team in the AFC than the Browns. It'd be wild to see the AFC Championship game in Cleveland with the Bills visiting.
Chargers had a wall. That dumba$$ punt returner just had to go for it. If he made the 1st guy miss, it was about to get real interesting...
Congrats on the over though.
I think the right call was made but as the replay incontrovertible?
The TD wouldn't be the worst thing for the Chargers. Beats letting the clock running out and a game-winning FG.
Big 3rd down here...
Festivus - the holiday to air grievances!
Here's mine. After Rayne Dakota Prescott's reputation was unfairly impugned as a "glorified Tim Tebow", I became a buyer. Buy, buy, buy! His stock has appreciated significantly after a pick-filled aberration year. With that said, Rayne has produced a career year (in a contract year, and contract years are often undefeated) and it's time to sell. I sold 25% before the Eagles game, 25% after the Eagles game, and I'll figure out how to sell the remainder of my "stock". But it'll probably be before the 2nd round game (opponent dependent).
Happy Holidays
Exactly. Obviously, it never plays out the same way every time but usually a "fever pitch" is hit a week or so before uplist. That's a great selling point. Then 6 months after the uplist one can decide whether to buy back in or not.
From your lips to God's ears...
Let's hope it's only 10 months. Uplists usually take longer before they become shorter, even for well-organized management teams, which we most certainly aren't. ;-P
I found a list of the 14 largest expected IPOs of 2024, all expected to be over $100M. Notice the filing dates. Five of them are over a year old. Twelve of the 14 are between September and December. Two that aren't in that time period are January 10th (late start, harbinger of $ASKH?) and July 2021 (IPO market was hot as fook then). TBH, the last two years have been atypically poor for IPOs. Some companies "held off" going public until better financial conditions presented themselves. 2024 is expected to be better than both 2022 and 2023. It should be a bullish year given the expected pent-up demand, watching, and waiting from the sidelines.
Most companies often play coy about filings, keeping things secret until the last possible moment. We've got subtle signals that the filing is coming: enhancing its corporate governance standards (i.e., the audit), accounting of number of beneficial shareholders, and overhauling its senior management team (twice! and we won't get the independent directors until late in the uplist process).
They didn't disappear. The website was upgraded weeks ago. They are merely in a separate place.

FYI, these people weren't fired. They still work for CIWM. Since an uplist requires at least 50% of the board members to be "independent", it's a bit unwieldy to have 9 "dependent" directors and 9 more "independent" directors.
With us being down to 4 dependent directors, it means we only have to hire 4 independent ones. Perhaps 5 if Captain America (Kiwi Chris Evans, bringer of $100M investment) requires a seat at the table. Typical range of board members, can be as low as 3, is 5 to 15 people, depending on the size and complexity of the company.

That's ray-cest. Lol.
IMO, they just didn't know. To uplist to the Naz at least half of the board members have to be Independent. The 5 released are all employees at CIWM, ie, not Independent. I imagine the Kiwi Captain American (Christopher Evans) gets a seat at the board as well. That means at least 10 more board members were needed, which is absurd.
Unfortunately, I can easily imagine this.
Naz says it can be done in 4 to 6 weeks if everything is perfect. But it's never perfect. At least I've never seen it (outside a SPAC). I've played a half dozen uplist plays. Throw in we're both Chinese and a reverse merger, and the scrutiny will be over-the-top.
Especially when our share price is less than a dime. I've seen reverse splits work for uplist purposes but IMO it's more sustainable if the share price appreciates organically.
Go big or go home.
IMO. If we are what they say we are, then the only answer is the NAZ or like-kind exchange. Perfect world is a Direct Listing and to the highest tier of the NAZ: Global Select.
But we are $ASKH, so it's probably going to be the Capital tier of the NAZ (lowest tier, meant for "emerging" companies), feature an IPO, and won't happen until this time next year.
That's a valid point.
But after all these years haven't you figured out who you're invested in? Whether you choose to believe the business / business model is "for real" is up to you. But I think we can all be assured that when it comes to the clerical, communication, and technical operation of a publicly-traded stock, they're going to have numerous missteps and delays. It's what they do.
Nope, but both "boxes" are criterion in the S1 filing. They haven't publicly stated they are uplisting. But they told us the intention in their Investment Decks. And the recent changes gives additional indications it's happening.
Best time to file is after the fiscal 3rd quarter. It gives a long runway before the 10K is required, as well as benefits of bundling the audit costs of the 10K and S-1. It's the best time to get the ball rolling. They won't get it right the first time. Most firms don't. Given we're Chinese, they'll be extra scrutiny. As each quarter passes, they'll have to update the S-1 filings but the majority of questions are hopefully taken care of before 10K.
It reads as a consistent picture though. These ding dongs are at their first Nasdaq uplist rodeo and it's showing. At least they've been talking to the right people or filling out the S-1 filing because in damn near all cases, more than half of the board members have to be independent, i.e., no substantial business relationships; no family ties, no significant financial interest, no recent employment, etc.
We *had* 9 board members, none of them meeting the criterion of "independent". 18 board members is bonkers for any IPO, let alone $ASKH. So, the scaling back to 2 ASKH members (Mark and Ralph) and 2 CIWM members (Dun & I forget who) "balances" the power between ASKH and CIWM, as well as obviates the need for 18 fooking board members. Looks like they are targeting to have 8 board members. #AdAstraPerAspera
Wine Anthology got to me in 2 days. They're based in Joisey and I'm Long Island New York.
Doing a taste test at the office. 4 out of 5 enjoy free liquor. One woman their is no pleasing.
Called the company and asked where I could buy more product online. Said it was a tough answer. Basically, all their distributors are in North Cackalacky. Sometimes they (their distributors) sell some of their product to 3rd party distributors like Wine Anthology. Asked why they don't do that directly. The answer was because they made no money off of it. Understandable. The beverage business (alcohol and non-alcoholic) is brutal. Requires a lot of capital, luck, and usually a prominent endorser or two.
You should take all the flowers...
...for being that delusional Cowboys fan.
I suspect it's a byproduct of the uplist process. Minimum number of shareholders required based on what Tier of the NAZ we wish to occupy.
Why is this informative?
When they start hiring the appropriate number of Independent Directors, that's when we fly!
Gave a sip to my 14-year old. He said "burn-y". Lol. Wife is home and sure to be annoyed whether for supplying liquor to a "ute" or something else I failed to read her mind about.
This post comes from a non-sober person.
I have no idea how big the "flavored" Whiskey market is but Crisp Apple is nnniiicceee. I don't drink much so my opinion is probably not a representative of consumers in this market. But here goes. Strong smell. Strong flavor. Kick beyond its 70 proof. Works with pizza. I like the look and feel of this bottle. Nice presentation. Have XMas parties coming up. Will do a wider tasting with coworkers and family.
That's not what "controlling one's destiny" means. Lol
If Dallas wins out against Miami, Detroit, and Washington (note 2 of 3 are division leaders) they'll finish 2nd if Philly manages to beat the Giants (twice) and Arizona, which all 3 have losing records.
It basically boils down to Dem Boys needing a huge heaping helping of Tommy Cutlets magic.
A: Lack of understanding.
He's never run a publicly-owned company before. It's not his core competency.
Down goes Philly. Cowboys still don't control their own destiny. They lose all the tiebreakers.
Oh I'm aware.
Cowboys get an F.
It's the return of the F-Game, and its bigger than ever 🤣

I'm in no hurry either.
Just letting people know to expect more than a few NFL posts.

Had we but world enough and time...
August 10th, they announced the closing within 30 days.
Radio silence.
October 20th, they announced closing and intent for a global capital raise of $60M.
November 14th, they announced they had a $100M agreement in place.
Logical next step, and we don't know when the process started, is the audit / S1 filings. S1 filings / audits take time. 6 months is a decent estimate for the 1st filing / go-around.
Chinese New Year is a 2-week hole in the middle of February. So if they started the process in August, January could be an upside surprise. But if they didn't, it may be March at the earliest.
