Michael Dell says tablets need security and windows to interface with coprpoate networks. Says its a weakness for the I pad.

It seems they are gathering the resources through acquisitions and financing to service a large (gov't) contract that they see as forthcoming.
Perhaps that sole source is a bigger deal.

More money for security will come. I am glad Wave will be ready.

Facebook has fixed a bug that inadvertently revealed users’ personal photos. The bug was discovered after people used it to post personal pictures of Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg.
The flaw, as first reported by ZDNet, was originally found by members of a body-building forum. The bug took advantage of the network’s mechanism to report inappropriate images. When Facebook users clicked on the “Report” menu to flag an image as pornography or nudity, they were then shown other photos from that reported users’ account -- some of which were private -- to determine if they were also inappropriate.

In a statement, Facebook said that the bug was the result of a recent code push that allowed users to see the private photos, and that the code was only available for a limited time. The company said that it has taken the option offline and will only return it confirms that similar incidents won’t happen again.
It’s a black eye for the company, which has been making a renewed push to convince users that their Facebook information is secure and under their own control.
Following the announcement of a Federal Trade Commission settlement over privacy, Zuckerberg said that he is “the first to admit that we’ve made a bunch of mistakes” regarding privacy, naming the Beacon advertising issue and “poor execution” in transitioning to its new privacy model. Zuckerberg said that he wants to make Facebook a “leader in transparency and control around privacy.”
A facebook security screw up. A perfect use for Scrambl.

Nice find JD.
Seems like the Wavx - Samsung deal was meant to bid this.
Dr Nick
Dig,
If I were a conspiratorial and paranoid trader, then watching today's action would look like a cap from a potential buyer into a stock sale.
But I am not.
Dr Nick
Series K warrants need to be exercised before the end of the year. If you choose cashless exercise, the company goes in to the market and sell shares to pay for the exercise price. This "may" explain some of the trading.
I'm not sure if the entity with all those shares on the offer is a genius or idiot.

Wave is not on the list of possible Dell targets for takeover.

I will be in Singapore late December, perhaps we can meet and discuss Wave issues.
Dr Nick
Wow, a blast from the past. Welcome back.
Dr Nick
They had to do it. There are warrants that I know of expiring this December, and they need authorization to issue the shares.(I am still holding some)
That authorization would have expired before all the shares are isssued.

RSA has been hacked and their security tokens may be worthless. TPM's to the rescue.

Why at a TVTONIC URL and not a wave url?

Strange trading on Level 2.
Market has no relation to NSDQ trades.

Still could be a set up, the answer to the poll question will be overwhelming no because of security fears. If he gets diverted to single sign on, it could be controversial. Hope I'm just paranoid.

Clay,
Wavx is at it again.
Dr Nick
Clay,
Thanks for the Wavx chart. Fundamentals will show also.

It would not be beyond Steven and Peter to have another news release tomorrow.
I would guess they are not amused with the short position.
Dr Nick
The $5.00 January calls start to look interesting, ask is 0.25.
Dr Nick
Is this what a squeeze looks like?

You are looking for Clay Trader's chart. I have asked him to do one.
Dr Nick
Clay,
Time to revisit Wavx.
Dr Nick
Clay,
Thanks for the Wavx chart. I hope to hear from you more often.

A few hundred shares at $3.24 have gone off pre-market with 3000 @ $3.17 trading earlier.
Dr Nick
We probably close @ 2.50 on Friday. (Option Expiration)

Too bad that "WAVESECURE" a tool for securing data on smartphones with ANDROID is not from Wavx, but soon to be MCaffe.

different bidder (was UBSS yesterday) which is usually retail.
Dr Nick
Just a guess, but having participated in previous placements (with SRA), todays action may be the forerunner of another PP with shorting ahead of the news. Maybe there is a new opportunity for Wavx that requires an investment and thus more cash.
Hard to rationalize the movement in the stock after the earnings call with other theories.
Dr Nick
This is speculation, but if MM's keep dropping the price, the equity funds wil sell shares to keep their Wave holdings in line with their relative market cap. As
wavx drops in value they need less shares. Thus sharse are available to cover their shorts.
