I see that company name change is already reflected on my brokerage account and I now hold Ainos Inc. If you haven’t already checked out their website it’s worth a look. They are a subsidiary of Taiwan Carbon Nano Technology Corp. From a corporate governance and operations standpoint this represents a big improvement in my view. I had kind of written this investment off (long term holder) but I’m actually pretty excited again about potential.
New closing high at $19.45. Hopefully we will see $20 soon. Market cap is starting to get pretty significant.
Ah my first “ignore” button usage. We’ve been fortunate historically to avoid the Yahoo trolls....
Agree - this is merely a data point though I would argue a significantly important one. We will have to wait and see if it amounts to more. Both of us have been around awhile - with this stock it’s always an adventure !
This is great to hear. I think they will benefit from the GIOSTAR association. Going it alone was never really a great option.
Yes definitely more people following although most days are still pretty light total $ volume. But of course we remember periods where trading didn’t even occur for days.
Yahoo board has turned into a zoo and I’ve stopped looking at it for now.
Some crazy trading this week for a stock that on typical days in the past wouldn’t even trade for a couple days at a time!
Maybe things are coming together although we will have to see what transpires with FDA.
I do know the company is looking to become current in their reporting but they need to finalize ongoing funding. Further, the process takes quite some time (6-9 months) so this looks like a 2021 goal.
Nice trading this week - looks like you basically sold the high and bought the low today.
Very interesting developments though I view this is nothing more than speculation by people on various Yahoo message boards until I see further success on FDA trials. Perhaps stock didn’t deserve to be at 0.25-0.30 in the first place and this better reflects company risk-adjusted potential (which is far from a sure thing). I’m holding my shares for now as any positive developments could push this soaring into the couple dollar range. I also wish the stock had better liquidity but people should understand market orders aren’t a good idea with VODG.
Lonely message board here. More posters on Yahoo Finance. I’ve quadrupled my holdings in CGEN dice December and starting to feel pretty good about it.
Those were my sentiments too - acknowledged progress and probably a 0.21 stock price at year end.
Sorry to see you go Potse - not many people following the stock so it becomes an even quieter message board
I would expect a company update in September if Musick is true to form. Stock has held up fairly well of recent but there’s little to glean from the lethargic volume.
Yes, we’ve been around long enough to understand the importance of limits orders. I did look back at Times/Sales data and actually nearly all the shares last Friday went off at 0.22 (only 11k traded at 0.25). So not a horrible job of trading on their part.
I like your strategy of nibbling here on a few shares. Feels like there could be a meaningful update from the company later this month. We sure have been patient waiting!
Friday’s volume at 165k was surprisingly the most since last September. While hard to get too excited (only $40k) it is good to see somebody showing interest and bringing the stock back to $0.25. Hopefully a company update will be forthcoming later this month.
Earnings announcement out - pretty interesting and gives me some hope things are moving forward.
Update out yesterday which is promising and worth a read. Back up above 0.20
I thought it might rally a bit more, but there’s just nobody really the company. Agree it we can continue to hold .30 or so that would be nice. Revenue growth hopefully continues to accelerate and favorite trial results occur. That’s a way out and would be the payoff.
Company earnings and update out and i think it’s quite positive. Stock should rally nicely today.
Quite a haircut taken last two days and follows news story about Delek and other providers constructing a 600 mile pipeline from Permian to Texas Gulf Coast. Not sure if that’s the cause or just general oil and refining weakness.
Looks like some volume has returned with prices back above .30
Thanks for posting. It does seem the company is gaining momentum over the past couple months.
You could be right. It’s possible I held some shares back then. Somebody clearly botched it with a market order at 0.45 today.
I remember 4 years ago - it ran to at least 0.50. That was a pump and dump by a small stock advisory firm if memory serves correct. Hope more substance this time.
Watch the stock - there are people chasing it today as high as 0.45. I have not seen anything fundamental to explain the increase but there has been material blocks on the bid - so definitely new buyers coming in after a very sleepy couple years.
Today is definitely bringing out the buyers on really good volume. Not sure what’s changing fundamentally, but VODG is attracting more investors (and/or traders)
In my case no - I missed it unfortunately right after it spiked to $61. Perhaps I will be more organized if there’s another run :)
Finally a good day for refiners. Valero up on earnings and others responding well. I’d like a 2nd crack at that $60 sell target.
Decent bump in payout. Stock up nicely but as usual on low volume.
Great post - hope we start attracting more attention.
Check out trading today. Very odd with 234k shares and price as high as 0.29. No news as far as I can tell.
Good to see some progress on VODG. It continues to be my most boring holding - hopefully some new interest by investors soon. Even better would be some partnership with a credible company as our trials near completion.
Particularly weak today while I’m seeing other companies like Valero modestly green. After big run up i guess there’s a period of consolidation to be expected. Wondering if they’ll up dividend again after what should have been a pretty good quarter.
Goldman upgraded DK to Conviction Buy with $67 target citing Permian crude differentials to widen due to transportation constraints, potential upside to Brent-WTI forecast, attractive valuation following pullback, and M&A upside.
I think this came out yesterday and probably caused brief run over $54 before it fell back.
This just further highlights what a steal ALDW was. Another new high - I agree let it run into the 60’s
This is a really fun stock to watch, up today again in an unfavorable market. I have shifted some funds out of diversified equities into more commodity based funds as this seems a pocket of strength going forward on a relative basis. Bought RA last week and rejiggered 401k a bit while seeking other opportunities ahead. Jeff Gundlach has made some comments that commodities are trading very cheap vs equities in the cycle and that rings true to me.
Distribution raised to $0.75
All the analysts are jumping on the bandwagon lately - Deutsche Bank raises target from $46 to $58 as reported on Reuters this morning.
Thanks for the SA link. Seems every time I look around there’s an upgrade and/or price target increase. Do you guys follow ANDX - mentioned in the article also and I’ve seen some discussion on it elsewhere but not particularly familiar with it.
Agreed, stock price action looks very healthy. I’m planning to squeeze a couple more bucks out if the broader market can cooperate.
I’m a DK holder now so the past interests of ALDW I need to put out of my head (easier said than done). But I do need to be at least a partial seller soon - DK has become my largest holding through appreciation!
It took a little effort, but we’ve pushed through $40. As this now represents my 2nd largest holding, I will begin looking to pare this down. I may also consider some covered call sales with remaining holdings as implied ATM vol is fairly rich (36-37%).
Jugs, no egg on your face - you’ve done very well on ALDW/DK. I would say more like you’ve devoured a 6-egg omelette and decided to leave the last bite because you’re full :)
I’m also miffed about the foregone distribution(s) but a $42 stock price could alleviate that grievance I suppose.
