Anyone watching Invest 97?

No storm worth moving the stock. After a storm REALLY hits somewhere the stock will move if it is still alive - and it has been hanging in there year after year.
This is what you call a bottom. There could be nothing worse to happen that the travesty of not opening the stock until 3pm on Friday. We are at a good buying price here.
Big new storm brewing - Hopefully we can get some love this time.
Hurriquake!
Can a brother get a press release?
Woo hoo! I'm so excited.I just cant hide it, Irene's about to lose control and I think I like it. :)

Ike Aftermath: Initial Loss Estimates
Size, rather than intensity, may have helped to rank Ike among the most destructive storms in history, in terms of insured losses.
By Anthony O'Donnell
Insurance & Technology
September 15, 2008
http://www.insurancetech.com/news/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=210601554
Hurricane Ike narrowly failed to reach Category 3 status, but the high-end Category 2 storm nevertheless inflicted damage across a huge geographical area. At its peak the measured 450 miles in diameter, measured to the extent of tropical storm force winds, with hurricane-force winds of 190 miles in diameter. Owing to flooding, lack of electricity and other disruptions of normal communications, the extent of the damage caused by the storm remains unclear. However, several industry sources have issued estimates of insured losses.
On Saturday, Risk Management Solutions (RMS, London) estimated Hurricane Ike could cause $6 billion to $16 billion of insured damages, following the storm's landfall at Galveston, Texas early that morning. The estimate excluded losses from inland flooding or those covered under flood policies issued by the National Flood Insurance Program.
Also on Saturday, Boston-based catastrophe modeling firm AIR Worldwide reported that it expected $10 billion of losses, within an estimated range of $8 billion to $12 billion.
On Sunday, New York-based Deloitte LLP issued an estimate of $20 billion to $25 billion in total insured losses, including the National Flood Insurance Program, of which around $10-20bn will go to the commercial insurance and reinsurance industry and the balance to the NFIP.
A statement from Deloitte noted that its estimate places Ike as the third largest insured hurricane loss historically, after Hurricanes Katrina and Andre, and probably the fourth largest insurance loss eve, after Hurricane Katrina in 2005, the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, and Hurricane Andrew in 1992. An RMS source said the estimated losses from Hurricane Ike were the result of onshore damage from wind and rain across the extensive area affected by the storm. Widespread damage was expected to buildings in the coastal areas that experienced the highest winds, despite building codes second only to those enforced in southern Florida, according to RMS.
RMS noted that losses to high-rise buildings in downtown Houston could contribute significantly to the total losses caused by Ike. "High-rise office buildings in downtown Houston have been subject to winds around 30 miles per hour higher than at ground level, potentially aggravated by debris from the proximity of these buildings in the downtown area. Damage that has been observed so far to windows and facades is similar to that experienced in southeast Florida from Hurricane Wilma in 2005," said Dr. Christine Ziehmann, director of model management at RMS.
As more post-storm data becomes available, estimates are likely to drop, according to Howard Mills, chief advisor for Deloitte's insurance industry group. "The industry has gotten much better at putting together quick total estimates," Mills says. "You'll see some numbers come together quickly now that the storm has passed and it has become possible to get into some of the areas and get a better look."
Cat 4 Ike - We WILL break out today and tomorrow.
Ike will be a beast.
National Storm should not have to give away more shares with this much work from Fay and Gustav, Add Hanna Ike and Josephine and NSMG will be a booming business...any thoughts?
Buy on hype sell on News??? There is much more news coming!!! HYPE IS IN FULL EFFECT!
Bounce, Bounce, Bounce!
10 Billion in Damage - Hanna, Ike, Josephine - This stock will pop and hold its gains this week.
Hurricane Ike Forms on Thursday 8am as per Wunderground
NYTimes Tropical Depression NINE | 1:21 p.m. There’s a new storm is breaking while heading in the direction of New Orleans. Luckily, it is hundreds of miles away and has yet to form into something worth naming. Tropical Depression NINE is halfway between Africa and the Leeward Islands and may begin affecting the Caribbean by Friday, the National Weather Service said.

Could there be a REAL late season surprise?
I finally did it literally
I invested money into a sinking ship. How many times can you actually say that in your life?
There is another move on this, like all good Pirate movies, there is always a sequel.
How much loot will be needed for a bull run?
How little will it have to be for a bear raid?
Any ideas?
Was hoping someone did so i didnt have to buy it :)
Anybody read this?

I had a dream the other day
AHMIQ jumped to .98 and I sold out.
The stock was at .28 at the time.
Last dream I had about a stock hit on the money and I didnt sell, then came all the way back.
Take it for what its worth...but it made me smile in the dream.
