I agree, hoping that it runs enough I can sell half my shares for twice what I paid for them, get my original investment back, plus a little to cover the tax I'll pay on them next year - then I'll let the rest ride and forget about it for a while just to see what it will do long term. You are right that penny stocks are not investments, but this seems to be a real company with a real product and service with real customers - unlike a lot of pennies - so it might be worth something someday. It will probably mean a r/s down the road, if the company becomes profitable, but I think this is one of the few pennies that might actually have long term value. But to cover my bets I'd like to get my original investment out to play with in some other stocks.,
If the cc deal is off the pps will be so low that they will have to sell a trillion shares to finance operations that way. If the cc deal is a go pps will go up and they will probably continue dilution until the sub numbers can sustain business. JMHO - what that means for traders is as always we better know when to hold em and know when to fold em. I still remain confident that the deal will work out and the pps will go up, but I doubt if we will go to the moon. I would be thrilled with .05 for a high. hey, I'm avged in at .01. That is a darn good return for a few months investment.
you don't seriously thing that investors in CC read the GZFX boards and pay attention to GZFX hype do you? I know those of us who play these stocks get caught up in all of this but CC is on a different playing field. Whether or not GZFX has a partnership with CC will not make any difference in CC pps at all. That is my only point. It makes all the difference in the world to the GZFX pps but not the other way around.
An elephant and a mouse were walking across a bridge together and the bridge creaked and cracked because of the weight. When they got to the other side the mouse said, 'man did we make that bridge shake!"
GZFX is the mouse and CC is the elephant.
Seems like a lot of people trying to convince others to sell out before tommorrow. Could they be wanting to buy some more cheap shares before the run?
CC pps has nothing to do with GZFX and the deal - GZFX pps has everything to do with CC deal. CC is not going to lose any sleep over GZFX if it doesn't work out, GZFX is going to have nightmares for a long time if the CC deal doesn't work out.
Still believe it is a go and we will know soon.
Apple sent out a pr about the press story which included HISC - way after someone on this board gave us the heads up on it - don't remember who but pat on the back to you - anyway after reading it again one of the more interesting parts of the HISC aspect was this quote:
"Our company is about 20 percent tracking and 80 percent data processing. The market took off in a way we didn't expect," CEO Frank Moody II said. Its Cyber Tracker tracks material and processes data, allowing video and photographs to be sent to a network monitor. The device was specifically designed for port security, but the company has found a market with companies that want to monitor their shipments worldwide.
So my take on this is what we were expecting last year because of the Savannah Port test may not come to pass - but what we did not expect in terms of companies using this for world-wide cargo tracking may be in the works.
Also, maybe this might give us some idea of the kind of company that the merger may be with - ie someone who is doing more world-wide shipping type security rather than someone who is just a homeland/american security type company.
All just guessing on my part, but IMHO the merger may be one that no one has even come close to guessing right about yet. We will know soon enough.
Other good news - the way the pps is dropping we have some great buying opps before the big news hits and we head north.
Don't want to be caught chasing - the train is getting ready to leave the station.
not sure how i can go on with life now tht you are ignorung me - i repent, never again will i express anything but positive attitude
just asked a question
sorry if that sends you in to a tail spin
I noticed that Frank is quoted as saying 2006 is going to be a 25 million dollar year, isn't that about half of what we heard not long ago?
Ok, my opinion is it means something - what? Maybe they didn't have space for it, maybe the deals off, maybe they just wanted to scare the crap out of some yahoo and ihub traders, maybe gzfx isn't all they think about at cc headquarters...........
no one knows until tommorrow what the pps going to do. There is some nervousness about the absence of gzfx from cc ad, so there might very well be a sell off. All I know for sure about the predictions on this board is about a third are right about a third are wrong and the other third in between. We will see tommorrow who is right on this one. Should be fun.
If that is the case than we can kiss the pps goodbye
well, I'm jst grateful for the last small run. I was in low enough on avg pps after they gave the stock divy that I actually got out with about a 40% gain. I really thought it was a lost cause for a while, but I was down so much I just kept hanging around. Thought about waiting for the stock divys but in mho it ain't gonna be worth much. I hope for those still holding I'm wrong. Good luck to you - i really mean that. I want you guys to come out on top
that's all right, I was just messing around. Not much new to talk about just thought I would mock self-absorbed manic depressive stock holders for a while - not that there are any on the hisc board.
I'm hurt no one asks where I am when I don't post. I'm really hurt and gonna spend the weekend sulking. Might even throw a fit here in a minute. What am I the rodney dangerfield of ihub?
OK done with the pity party - have a great weekend and lets plan on some good news next week.
Lots of longs on the stock but not to many longs on patience here
I'm not wound up about it at all. I really don't care, but things have gotten kind of boring so I just thought I would stir the pot a little. No offense taken I hope.
The good news is no ones postivie or negative take on this board is going to change the reality of what is to come - and what is to come is unknown for sure by any of us. Buy sell or hold - it is a guessing game and some will win and some will lose - my wish is for all of us to win - except the MM's
I guess you are a glass half empty kind of guy
Nothing is for sure. It all depends on how fairly our shares are valued in the dividend in the new company. If HISC remains on the pinks after the merger it will drop in price. Why? Well, we are assuming that Actsoft will go to the new company (at least that seems to be the concensus here), along with retail sales. So that means that a huge part of the present company value will be merged into the new company. How could HISC stock go up or even maintain pps if the present value drops? The only way that could happen is if they pr some huge - really huge - contracts for HISC.
If we get a fair shake on shares in the new company we will make out just fine. It may not happen quickly though. There may be some wait and see attitude in the market toward the new company for any long term pps growth.
Of course this is all just my opinion and I could be wrong.
Can we hold you to that and rant and blame you if it doesn't happen and say that you are a worthless pumper trying to dump your shares on us poor dupes? LOL. Or is this just a guess you are throwing out for fun?
OC, I'm with you on this one. If it is no big deal and we wouldn't care if we knew than just come out and say what the deal is. I guess it is more fun being one of the in the know guys - I think it was our former pres Ronald Reagan who wisely said, "trust but verify." Whenever something is going on that folks don't want you to know about there is usually self-interest involved.
You may well be right. Any rumors out there as to what company we are merging with?
Your patience will pay off soon in my opinion. The best two weeks I had lately was out of the country with no access to internet and no idea what was happening with HISC. I get addicted to reading the boards and waiting for the big news and the best thing to do is to forget it and go away and wait.
No, I didn't. I guess you were probably doing the same thing I did a couple of days ago - I tried doing some research to find some hint as to what company the merger would be with. Looked for info in a lot of places on the internet and really couldn't come up with a good answer. Unless I missed something no one else has put forward a likely possibility either. I understand why you suggested the company you did and I looked at it. But it sounds to me like they are basically a shell company playing the usual games these kind of companies play.
If that is what we merge with my worst fears for this will be realized. If the holders of HISC stock are going to profit this merger will have to be something substantial. It can't be one of these deals where we all are scratching our heads trying to figure out what the heck Frank was thinking.
There is so much doubt hanging on to this company right now that it is going to take very solid good news to get another run. If it even smells slightly fishy there will be another panic sell off.
The fact that they can announce $700,000 in sales in 2 months an have the pps finish down tells you alot about how sceptical the market is right now on HISC. And they have done this to themselves with all the fluff pr, the decision not to pursue uplist, the lack of port contracts everyone was counting on. They set the bar of expectations so high that even good news is interpreted as a disappointment.
I'm not selling. I went into this believing it was a good risk to take and I haven't changed my mind. The money I put into it was money I knew I might lose. I'm rolling the dice and I feel my odds are pretty good that I will make some money here, just gotta be patient though and not panic.
Sorry for the length - been busy and don't have time to post again, so getting it all out in one.
I hope not, don't thing a merger with a company whose pps is around .003 is going to get too many people excited about the direction of this company. At the end of last year everyone was waiting for big contract news and an uplist. That hasn't happened and all the attention is now on this merger. If it turns out the merger is with some subpenny piece of junk than the pps is going to head south again as folks jump ship and no one is going to want to board the titanic as it is going down.
Because of the failures to meet expectations in the past this will have to be good if it is going to get the pps moving north again. Of course, that is all just mvho
Well, this board is really running out of steam. Nothing to say that hasn't been said already. In a holding pattern. The calm before the storm I think.
I've put this one on my watch list and will do some dd on it. How long have you been in this one. I notice that the pps has had a slow steady drop for the last year and that makes me a nervous about jumping in right now. Might wait and see how far down it goes. Do they have any cash to keep operating? Are they diluting shares in order to raise capital?
Personally, I don't thing too much hope should be pinned on revs from 05. There seemed to be a few sales, but the real hope for this company lies ahead. If too many investors pin their hopes on good rev numbers from last year they might have a fire panic sale again and we will see the pps drop. On the other hand, since I do believe the future is bright, if that happens it will provide another great buying opportunity for those looking forward to great things in 06.
VOD seems like the thing of the future. Yahoo is getting on board. Hopefully GZFX is positioning itself to be the leader in this arena ahead of netflix and others.

Thanks for the confirmation
I thought it might run up a little in pps share on the news today, but holding steady for now. I'm in GZFX also and it is moving up great yesterday and again this morning. Getting lots of attention on this board, heavy volume, etc. Is it possible that when a stock is moving like GZFX is today that it draws attention away from other penny stocks that might have moved with news - like hisc? Just wondering if that might be the reason we are sitting still when we finally have some good solid news out. Penny players might be keeping their attention on GZFX, flipping it, or waiting to pull the trigger, or looking for buying opps. Might be a goofy idea but it crossed my mind
that would seem to make sense to me, I do wish they would have given some kind of numbers with it. Even if it were a approximation and they said something to the effect that "this sale will result in approx. $500,000 of net income." Oh well, can't have everything. Plus, the bashers need some fodder for the cannons today - so apple handed them something to work with.
Not in that case, it was a while back and can't remember all the details. I didn't have a lot of money tied up in it and it wasn't much of a company to begin with. Waited around for the divi and dumped it. What happened in that case was I basically got my investment back. I believe this is different because we have a real company with real product and real revenues.
Thanks, as to the merger - I suppose some things are still to be figured out, but does anyone have an idea how the stock situation will work? Will HISC stock be converted to stock in the new company or will we be given shares in the new company as a dividend for holding HISC stock and have both stocks? I owned shares in another pink that gave divies in a new company. The orginal stock was basically worthless after that happened but the new shares had value.
Good News, now question - these CT's are for resale (correct?) so doesn't that mean the fees will come as they are sold? Is payment made to HISC for these before they are resold or after? Either way, glad to see some solid news for a change and looking forward to more coming our way. PPS should get a nice bounce from this as those on the sidelines see something substantial and not just fluff.
News, not sales, but continuing to improve product and open up more markets and increase possibilities. Don't think this is the kind of news that will more pps much by itself, but maybe this is news that is a precursor to something big happening in Europe and Middle East.
Thanks, follow up question - so are my shares held in a scottrade account automatically sold or do I have to do something for that to take place?
Since we have no news to discuss let me ask a question out of my ignorance. Suppose HISC gets a buyout offer / acquistion by another company - for kicks lets say they buy out HISC at $5.00 a share (OK I'm just dreaming on pps for fun), do shareholders have to do anything or is the sale of their shares automatic, or do they have options of shares in the new company instead. Just wondering how something like that might work having never held shares in similar circumstances. Sorry if it is a dumb question, but still learning about some of this stuff.
Thanks KOOK, I think a lot of people were frustrated yesterday and for that matter of the past couple of months. It's hard to stay long when you watch it dropping like it did. curious rise in pps today though, especially as much as it has. It would be great to have some really positive news tomorrow and I think it would really take off again. People who just look at the pennys with the most % gain in a day are going to be looking at HISC tonight and wondering what's up. News tomorrow could have them jumping in a buying hoping to catch the run up.
I can dream can't I?
