There are a lot of stem cell companies using stem cells to tackle different problems. This is a pretty new industry and for now competition is a very good thing. I'm first and foremost a chartist and STEM has a very pretty chart imo.
PEIX always lags behind BIOF.
Seems most traders pay attention to BIOF first and then turn their attention to PEIX after they've made some money. Given the gains BIOF has been making recently (and still is), I wouldn't be surprised for volume to skyrocket as BIOF starts consolidating from yet another massive move up (which could be days from now).
STEM i think its time for a solid move up.
Without massive profit taking selling in between. I wouldn't be surprised for it to go to the 2.4-2.6 range again. Been scooping up shares near 2 again. Also, we got that golden cross on the weekly chart. Full steam ahead!

What does this mean for STEM?
Well, that 35k was bought shortly later at .17. I can't be certain that it was the same 35k, but they both occurred outside the best bid/ask. I get the feeling that could've been a naked short.
No me gusta.
35k traded at .2
not sure who did that and why, but it only shows up on the equity feed l2. It's not present on my scottrade time and sales. Hmm.
Looks like we've hit a temp bottom imo
Bounce time.
too many traders involved
There's too many people here that are buy happy and subsequently sell happy. Higher highs and higher lows though, so still looking good imo.
STEM news update
"StemCells, Inc. Announces First Transplant of Neural Stem Cells Into Patient in Clinical Trial for Dry Age-Related Macular Degeneration"
The cells were transplanted yesterday. There's a huge market for this, so long as Romney doesn't win and shut down the miracle medicine that is stem cells.
yay, STEM gap up
Here we go.
I think it'll run regardless of news. People have been buy happy since last week's news (as evidenced by RAPID moves up). I love nothing more than stocks that provide both short and long term trading opportunities.
I think that any positive news has already been more than priced in at this point.

Rodman and Renshaw court ordered liquidation
http://www.businessinsider.com/rodman-and-renshaw-to-suspend-broker-dealer-2012-9
I have not been able to find a link showing that PROT was part of their liquidation. If someone has that, I would like to see it.
I think today may be the end of the consolidation.
I've been scooping up as many shares near 2.00 as I can. Volume on upswings is much higher than downswings. The weekly chart is about to have a golden cross. Now we just need an Obama victory and this will prove to be a very profitable trade imo.
The drop in share price is unrelated to business operations. Notice how the volume is much higher than the recent months combined. This is because an institutional stock holder was forced to back out. Nice scare tactics though.
The chart is a trader's dream (which is why I'm here).
But when determining which stocks I trade, I make sure to determine what the long term potential is as well because that's what gets investors' attention and therefore brings volume. Your argument that other stocks are overpriced so this one should be as well is horribly flawed. If I try to sell you a pencil for 1000 dollars, does that mean you should pay 1000 dollars for every pencil you see? No.
The biggest red flag for the stock is the recent promotional piece. Good stocks rise in price because the underlying companies report good earnings/ news. If this requires a buy target to rise in price, AKA a fluff PR, then the price target is BS and the author knows it. I will trade the fluff, but I will in no way stick around to find the air in the middle. You said it yourself that this stock is overpriced in your comparison with other overpriced stocks. It seems then, that we're all in agreement on that point.
KMAG has been number 1 throughout its trading suspension. All that means is that a lot of people lost a lot of money.
Ford has been recovering nicely since their bailout.
Tesla has made a nice car, there's no doubt about that. I'd like to test drive one sometime. But I don't understand how this business model can work out. They've made an electric family sports car. It seems there's an identity crisis here. The model S may very well be the car of the future, but Tesla Motors has to survive as a company first. At the moment they're barely holding their heads above the water and there's some big waves a-coming.
They have money to spend because they borrowed over 400 million from the government. Solyndra anyone? You can't pierce the world auto market with a start up company like this. The difference between GM and Tesla is that GM has money to lose and the option to make mistakes. Tesla can't slip up or they go under.
Given the over 60% short volume, I would love nothing more than for this company to do well and for me to subsequently take advantage of a short squeeze. I just don't see that happening though. We need a Hail Mary here.
Company cutting sales estimates in half. Need for additional financing to fuel this fiasco. Cars are super expensive for tiny marginal benefit (if any). Bigger, well established companies have more money to spend on developing a marketable electric vehicle.
Then you consider the ridiculous 3.4 billion dollar market cap and the long term looks bleak. Expect further dilution and few positive news.
I cannot discern a reason for this to be priced anywhere above $5. Even that is a bit much in my opinion.
Ouch? I wrote that when it was trading between a 1.0-1.02 range. It then rallied to 1.14. I'm not complaining about a quick 10% profit.
The correct response is:
Yay! I can buy cheap shares before everyone takes notice!
The stock ran up 10% within 10 minutes. A consolidation is to be expected. I don't know if your stop was hit or not, but if it was then I enjoyed buying your shares.
Thank you for that information.
Sincerely.
The plans are on a timeframe of 2-3 years.
It would be bad trading to push the market cap up a lot on speculative expansion policies. The billion dollar plans seem to be dependent upon their ability to obtain financing. 50-100 million dollars doesn't just get thrown around willy-nilly.
Additionally, there is a trading chill to worry about so people are rightfully fearful about obtaining shares at the moment.
Lastly, and most importantly, it is not the numerical pps increase that is important, but the percentage. A 20% increase in the share price (and a concurrent 20% increase in the market cap), is nothing to scoff at.
could we get a green close?
big blocks of resistance keep getting taken out with ease
I was simply giving an example of a successful high growth model.
With penny stocks, losses are to be expected as the company grows. The aggressive growth strategy of UBRG makes that doubly so. I'm not saying that it will become a fortune 500 company, but I do think they have profitability in their future.
STEM monster news
http://news.yahoo.com/stemcells-inc-achieves-spinal-cord-135215153.html
StemCells, Inc. Achieves Spinal Cord Injury Milestone With First Neural Stem Cell Transplant Into Patient With Sensory Function Below the Level of Injury
if the company is looking for funding,
That must mean it's still posting losses and can't finance its operations itself.
With that being said, I think this company is highly undervalued and will be scooping up as many cheap shares as I can. We've seen what high growth models can do with companies like AMZN. They're not always profitable either, but they're still a solid company. I think the same can easily be said about UBRG.
ZERO gap up
premarket bid upticks as people scramble to get shares
solid close
got some bid upticks afterhours as well
where did you get that information?
PEIX in full bounce mode
Is that author wrong?
I don't think so. It's not a hit piece if it's true.
Yeah, we're going to need some cost of sales numbers before taking out the party balloons.
NITE is a market maker. The big brokerage firms route trades through NITE. Scottrade for instance, routes around 40% of its trades through NITE. You cannot possibly know how NITE operates because NITE is not one person/thing. A lot of people get their trades routed through NITE and with this being an OTC stock, automated trading systems are not allowed. There's a lot of conspiracy theories surrounding NITE, but I guarantee you that a firm handling hundreds of millions of dollars does not care about a stock that trades less than $100k a day.
YOKU consolidation seems to be coming to an end
Their string of recent partnerships have me feeling good about this one long term.
The SEC has to receive many complaints that do not have any basis in fact. If they were to disclose all of these, a lot of companies would have their reputations ruined, even if the claims were baseless. If the SEC has taken the time to go public about the investigation, they must feel pretty good about it. But I think you already know this.
The SEC likes to be discreet.
They do not publicly announce investigations unless they have accumulated a lot of evidence already. The trial has already occurred, we're waiting on the outcome of the appeal.
the trading suspension suggests otherwise
We've been relying on scout's honor thus far. I welcome this investigation so at least we can get some clarity. If it turns out that KMAG has been following the law, there should be some nice profits to be made.
short term gains, long term gains, PEIX has it all.
