I agree I don't want to get too excited also, but I think the real deal is coming this time around! We are way over due! We are ready for a breakout of this trading range!
people are getting in before the 10Q, I guess the numbers will be good. Next week could be the turning point for the stock, The early birds get the worm.
Negger, I hope that they PR this Q, and it the start of good things to come.
Nice white candle today, let's continue the bullish pattern.
we could expect some volume to increase next week with the charts turning positive and the next Q on the way.
Dodo, I also agree with you, if I had some extra money I would double up at this level. This stock is way oversold! With numbers coming out within two weeks, this is at least a 3 bagger!
Radar IVFH at a 52 week low, Could be a huge turn around!
I feel it too! I have been averaging down all year also! Chefs need to step up to the plate!
Old article from 1995, Can Joe Hit a home Run in 2006?

review
by
KATHLEEN SLOAN
At last. An answer to "the musical question" posed by Simon & Garfunkel almost 30 years ago: "Where have you gone Joe DiMaggio"? Now he's turned up on Yonge St., just south of St. Clair.
OK, it's not Joltin' Joe himself but a "direct relative" (yeah ... that's it) in the form of Joe DiMaggio Jr., a south-of-the-border type of guy, who describes himself as an award-winning "master chef."
A great deal of foodie hype has circulated about DiMaggio, and so long before the opening of the restaurant that bears his name that one couldn't help but be curious and a little suspicious. (He has an agent! What's next? Chefs who go on strike?) But that's what makes us Canadian, I guess. We're a little anti-flaunting and a tad leery of those who aren't.
The name of the restaurant also refers to the paintings -- some of which are being created by local artists while you eat -- that are everywhere in this large space. They are on the walls, natch, but also on the floor, the tables, the ceiling, the hallway, your menu. At the rear of the restaurant is a fast-paced open kitchen where sous chefs take their direction from Master Di. If you can take the heat and their master's voice -- "OK, you guys, you're doing good, let's keep this momentum going, c'mon I need two pasta fagioli, a capelli d'Angelo, one carbonara and a pizza bianca ... NOW!" -- you may choose to dine perched at one of the adjacent high-top tables.
Wherever you sit, be prepared for: (a) noise, as in yelling to be heard; (b) earnest but wonky, erratic service; and (c) very good food. A number of pesky problems need sorting out, mainly to do with seating and pacing of service (on one visit I was asked no fewer than five times in the space of 10 minutes for my main course order -- twice while my mouth was filled with my appetizer), it's difficult to fault that for which DiMaggio Jr. claims his renown: his cooking.
No words can properly prepare you for the pasta fagioli ($8), the rustic Tuscan "peasant" soup of white beans and pasta. Thick with assorted pasta and creamy white beans, threaded with escarole, packed with mellow, sweet cloves of garlic and intensified with sherry, this dish is batting .500. Calamari fritti ($7) is a pretty plate of deep-fried squid served with a deeply flavorful, if somewhat common, sun- dried tomato mayo. But it is soft, albeit pliant. We want crisp and pliant.
The plates are loaded big-time with generous portions in everything from appetizers to salads to main courses. "Exploding garlic" is everywhere on the menu -- in the aforementioned soup, on the pomodoro pizza ($8), a lovely thin, yet bready crust with ultra-fresh ingredients, in the fabulous mussels ($8). You'll see a huge jar of peeled garlic cloves sitting on the counter in the chef's work area. By the end of a busy evening -- and they've all been busy since this space opened -- it's almost empty. The chef explains exploding garlic means cloves that have been immersed in one of a number of exceedingly hot liquids -- a variety of flavored olive oil or sherry -- until they are sweetened and brown. They emerge tasting absolutely mellow and nutty and addictive. If you find a dozen throughout your meal, eat them all. They won't bite back.
DiMaggio has more than skill; he has original style and shows great creativity in pairings and presentation. A huge 16-oz. sirloin ($27) is perfectly grilled to order, treated to intensely flavorful onions that have been cooked "down" until their sugars have been released and caramelized. The piece of meat has been thickly sliced and arranged in a semi-circle exposing its deep-red heart. Accompanying emerald-green snow peas have been cooked not one second longer than need be. The ever-returning server says the swordfish ($19) is accompanied by "scalloped potatoes or risotto." Uh, the risotto is actually a little molded mound of couscous studded with black beans. The fish is described as having been marinated in 15 herbs -- who's gonna check? But it matters little as this steak-of-the-sea is moist, succulent, even juicy.
Capelli d'Angelo della casa ($19) is a seductive combo of angel hair pasta tossed with chunks of lobster and shrimp, bits of spinach and a load of those beauteous garlic cloves. It is nearly dripping with a sauce composed of a buttery Chardonnay and basil. Prices may seem a bit steep overall, but splits (plates shared), don't seem frowned on at all here, even for the memorable pasta fagioli that I would have happily ordered again as dessert, which by the way, are good-looking but ho-hum. DiMaggio has hit a home run.

Lakin, Sure I still believe in the company, We know that there are deals coming, the problem is when! Company is doing great, stock is not doing so good. When momo sets in Everything will change! It will be here for a while once it comes in. We will just have to wait a little longer than we all anticipated.
Better yet no sellers, I am holding this puppy. I think the story is not over yet. I still believe that this this company has a good story for us. The upside risks far exceed the downside. Would not want to be out of this stock when we get the truth.
I guess that this is reason for the gag order on the company, investigation is still going. The next Q should give us some insite as to what is really going on. I don't think that any CEO in his right mind would let his PPS drop like this if he knew that his company is doing well and that he could help it. There has to be a gag on him.
I guess that the Debbie Scam is still haunting this stock, They just had John Reed Stark from the SEC on CNBC saying that this investigation is still going on. I sure hope they can finally clear IVFH of this scam and we can get our OTC listing!
Debbie Scam on CNBC now!
Dodo, this is not a dump it is a shake! Too much going on to be a dump at this price point! Hold on tight we will be headed north soon enough!
we must be close to a listing this must be the final attempt to get cheap shares! big drop on low volume, some is trying to accumulate cheap shares!
Robsaia, you are absolutely correct, no quiet period unless an merger or acquisition is in order. Maybe we will have one of those. If so maybe we will get a fair price.
Or maybe Joe is just going through his own quite period,
Should be over by now it has been over a year!
Dave, thanks for the update!
The rest will come when they get their OTC.BB listing! They have submitted the required documents for the OTC.BB.
boil, I agree I hate their silence! I would have sold by now if this was a regular pink. However they are fully reporting, and that is something they can't hold back on. We will be getting something soon, good or bad I don't know. However the numbers are in a up trend. I feel that it is worth holding. The numbers won't lie, except at Enron and Worldcom and a few others, we know what happen to the CEO's when their numbers lie. Do you think Joe wants Jail. I don't think so.
This is a different company than NDOL, I was in at .27 took my profits in the .80's. I feel that we are getting close here. This one is ready why do you think there is so much silence from the company. We all know that that are working with deals like Pasta, Disney and USF service. and management owns a large position. If things were going bad that would give us few PRs so that they could dump their shares and cash in at a higher price. They know that they are holding the trump cards so they are being calm.
We may not like them being so silent here, but it would be foolish to sell now and miss out on the real money.
Dodo, he is just trying to drive the price lower, he wants more shares. But we know what is going to happen. When news comes out he will be chasing this stock at .06 trying to get in, we know this thing is going to be moving soon. Numbers will be here soon enough. This is a fully reporting company, to bad the company dosen't tout it. If they did we would be at a dime!
Tele, there are always risks in every stock. I feel that the upside potential in IVFH far exceeds the downside risks at this price point!
DODO, calm down we are all down on this stock. The numbers will be coming out soon and they will tell the true story! If we get a listing any day that will all reverse this trend. You are only a loser if you sell, this will bounce back on TA if you don't scare potential investors away!
