Had to get out yesterday...thought maybe things would change but this thing only reacts to bad news. It is a much easier stock for short flips and that is about it. The predictability is uncanny to any I've seen. I know many will say "just don't get caught short, there could be that big rush up" First off any big rush is always followed by a retracement so that is rarely an issue. You could make your whole year with 5 or 6 very predictable 10-20% downturns. The sad thing is that it is truely a great company...Maxsoar is not going to get this thing moving, they are more or less a pump and dump...RedChip means well but are damaged goods in the real marketplace. Chen and company are nice for our little clique but have no real respect with the big boys. It's too cheap for any institution to be allowed to buy and you can't buy a million shares 200 at a time. I do enjoy all the personalities on this board so as always I'll continue to watch the show.
I'm not sure they care either way about the warrants. We are assuming that just because we want them gone that they do too. I think they are just striking whilst the iron is hot. we knew a week few weeks ago that 2 bucks would be extremely difficult and may not happen this year 2012.
Now we know were a lot of the cash came from to complete the purchase.....last Q....with thoughts going forward there should be plenty of cash from this Q to fill tanks.
My guess is there is some confusion...today was supposed to be a profit taking day...but many were surprised with more good news.
Just for the record ole T.Z. is long....it happened somewhere in the $1,50s....I'm nervous i must admit...but i'll stay I won't bail at first sign of red.
That's great.
I believe the big pop already happened Monday...I wouldn't be totally shocked if we ended red today.
Yes...but he has more like a Goldman in mind...not the Dollar Tree guys.
Maybe so..maybe so...but it won't hurt having him throw it around the office...might big firm.
Had an interesting conversation last night with a local manager of a 3 billion dollar fund. Had him drooling over LPH...looked at it for over an hour. Said, " if someone would initiate coverage, they'd jump in.
ubetball, I've seen this stock for nearly half a decade now...this is not the 1990s where a stock moves up based on fundamentals. If it goes above 2 bucks I'll tip my hat and say "great things are changing". But, a stock that is not even close to valuation at .61, will make little difference at .80
No rr i'm not kidding. This stock ran parallel to NEP for years kind of like a little brother. It was watched by the same traders and institutions as NEP...then suddenly big brother got caught. as far as investors go, they have the same DNA. A whole new design of thinking and trust has to take place before you see 2 bucks...I don't care if your eps goes to .80. I am yearning to go long, but i think long for a while is 1.80.
That may have been our big Aquisition pop..I'll just wait a few more days maybe weeks..I don't think it's going to jump to 2 bucks this calender year.
I thought the share just doesn't go to a potential 120 million...it would stay at 103 reguardless correct?
Terry Hynde...not Jerry..it's been a few decades.
Well since I saw The Pretenders in Madrid back in 87 and spent many a Saturday night enjoying her Brother's (Jerry Hynde) band...I'll have to use that "Brass in Pocket" and watch The Numbers (band). I'll look closely for an entry...ie. gaps etc.
Yes, it was a quick 16%...I was a bit too bearish (fatalist) going into the weekend. I guess I look to go long here...should I wait for a little pull back??
Dumping 300,000 shares on a Friday at 4pm is most always insider..plus very few others have that many shares to dump. Next week could be the big nail....sure i could be over reacting...but it could be.
I got my usual post CC short this time about 16%....but beside that something is really rotten here...I think the deal finally sunk. 130 mil in profit and you cant find 25 mil to pay the balance is just creepy. All the nay sayers were right all along.
The deposit was put down over a year ago. Well over $123 million in profit has been reported since.
I'm tryin' to believe Scandle..i'm tryin'.
I don't know.. as long as there are any issues with financing in China Micro-Caps, no shoe is gonna drop. Dillution will take all the wind out of expansion. Look..we are 2.5 years after the last expansion and a fraction of the price.
3 days after earnings is always a good short time..you usually squeek out 10-12% in a few days. Right before has always been good as well.
Wow..what happened here? This had such terrific potential a few years back. i lost touch with it over the years and just looked and am shocked...well not shocked...surprised.
One thing we haven't given Toups credit for was last April (I believe) when he said they were "still on track to break a half a billion." We all had very high doubts that would happen.
30-45 day ramp up period...really means 6 months to a year.
You are right, but that is about 18 months down the road yet. They even hinted to expect lower earnings for the second half of 2013 because of all the expenses.
You must be new. Charts don't mean a thing here.
Yes, I absolutely agree with that.
Thats been the case forever...hasn't helped an ounce.
Another long year ahead, maybe even 2.
Nobody buying into the earnings release?
Meet my friend the Decimal Point (.) Decimal Point, Scandle 34...Scandle 34..Decimal Point
When the stock does not take off when the expansion is announced the next only carrot left will be a dividend. That idea will be tossed and teased for at least 3 years before it never happens. Seen too much.
Trying to become confident and go long....just tough
Let's theoretically jump to Nov. 10th...if all goes as planned will we be near $2.00, or stuck in the 1.60 to 1.80 range?? What typically happens during expansion with this company is a dramatically lower PE..the question is will it at least stay the same?
When to short?
1. Before any earnings
2. 11:45 am if it starts out green.
3. After a low volume spike.
4. 3 days after a high volume spike.
5. When everyone says buy.
I could go on, it's a buffet
not short now...but read #4
Would love to be long.
I'm sorry but price hikes have never helped this stock...immune.
If they were going to announce a completed aquisition tomorrow the stock would have gone up .30 between yesterday and today...(hear me out)because info. is always leaked blah blah blah. Now, if the completion is announced it will only temporarily spike..then fall again as you guys await the next carrot sometime in the spring or next fall. The fact that there is no volume a day before an aquisition should tell you all that this is going nowhere after the aquisition...not above 1.90. My hunch is there will be a financial update ie. the $ is all there but there are still some legal issues and so forth. This is what you should hope for, because if the aq. is done, and this is the action...you need to sell on the .28 spike that will occur. no longer short...hoping to be long...been around long enough and still enjoy the show.
May get an op. to cover at 1.39 today.
