A lot of times you have to go to the bathroom more than once a day. FnF is no different.
WOW up 25% folks
Is this delay good or bad ?
As a potential new investor where can I get some information to get me ( and others ) up to speed about this company ?
Chris was terrible. Even that great event we were all looking forward to a few weeks ago was a total disappointment. Let's hope this new CEO knows what he is doing. To me this does not seem that difficult to do.
I thought the PR was pretty good. So why do we keep dropping ?
Are the Wolf of Weed St followers still with us ?
OK so MINE secures $2,000,000 financing in form of a traditional Line of Credit from Post Oak, LLC. They then use $1M to pay off short term debt. But it seems to me they are just moving money around.
Where did they get the $1M from ?
So you live in Washington State. How is the general mood regarding MJ over there ? Will MJ be less or more popular than Colorado ? Do you think the MJ sector as a whole will get a boost from your state ? Thanks.
I bought a whole bunch last week at $0.0250 thinking that was the bottom so don't feel bad. Feel bad for me instead.
I bought 24,500 shares today at around 1 pm today. Perhaps you saw my order today ? I'm so ready.
I thought Calkin said yesterday in the PR that financials would be released on August 15. Therefore my understanding is that we have to wait at least until mid August. Correct ?
I always buy Sparkling Ice from Costco. Tastes great with Grey Goose Vodka on the weekends.
Sounds like Yield Sign should be gone by September. Right ?
We own a travel company ? This is news to me. Can someone explain ?
Yes but which parts of the SA article is the truth ?
I read the Seeking Alpha article. It paints a very negative picture. However with that said what are the truth points in the article. There must be some truth. It can't all be lies can it ?
Disclaimer : Long
Interesting how SKT* issues a PR but we get nothing.
We have heard nothing from this company since mid April.
Once they start generating massive revenues they can perform a share buyback and reduce that number down to 500 million shares. Seems pretty obvious to me.
Huffington Post Article ; superb
As voices across the ideological spectrum have come to recognize the need for serious reform of our housing finance system with a greater role for private capital, the nation's top housing regulator made an unfortunate revelation. A revelation which points to the difficult path for serious housing reform. Mel Watt, newly installed Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) director and top regulator of mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, says that reforming the unfair housing finance system and protecting property rights is not part of his job description.
"My responsibility in the conservatorship is not to the shareholders, really. So I don't lay awake at night worrying about what's fair to the shareholders," Mr. Watt said in a recent interview on C-SPAN's "Newsmakers".
Secretary Watt's unfortunate, and somewhat shocking, statements betray an arrogance on the administration's part that is not helpful in the effort to effectively - and equitably - reform Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac so the public can feel confident going forward. After the financial disaster our country experienced in 2008, Mr. Watt ought to lay awake every night concerned with shareholders, investors, taxpayers and all Americans who have a stake in ensuring such a collapse never happens again.
When the housing market collapsed and government bailed out Fannie and Freddie, the system needed private investors and many took a risk to put capital into the two entities, hoping they would see a profit. The investors were told they still entitled to their share of future profits. Once the companies became profitable again in 2012, the government changed the terms of the conservatorship to a "net worth sweep," making Fannie and Freddie turn over all profits each quarter to the Treasury Department. The new agreement leaves shareholders out in the cold and gives all profits over to the government. These actions by the Treasury Department are a theft of private property, taking the gains of investors who risked their money with the stroke of a pen in order to pad the US Treasury.
By changing the rules in the middle of the game and taking away the property rights of shareholders in this way, the government is also discouraging private investment in the housing market, which is key to its success. How would we expect private capital to enter the housing market when there is obviously no protection of property rights and investor rights? Such a precedent will discourage investment in the sector and the lack of certainty and property protection may even reverberate into other industries. The 30 year mortgage and the stability and vibrancy of our housing finance system depend on private capital. That should keep Mr. Watt up at night.
In Congress, reform of Fannie and Freddie is faring no better. The Senate reform effort sponsored by Sens. Tim Johnson (D-S.D.) and Mike Crapo (R-Idaho) that recently passed the Banking Committee is not the solution to these problems. Across the political spectrum, people have come to realize that this bill is not a true reform as it does not protect property rights and it actually keeps in place the mechanisms that could lead to another financial collapse.
There is a bipartisan consensus on how to wind down Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, while protecting property rights and shareholders and limiting the role of government in the housing marketplace. This bill is not that solution. Rather than rush through bad legislation, Congress needs to take a step back and take its time to address all the concerns that have been raised in order to achieve a real reform that helps homeowners, investors and the economy. We cannot afford to get this wrong.
Congress and officials like Chairman Watt need to take this issue seriously and decide if they are going to be part of the solution or part of the problem. The FHFA needs a leader who will step up and take responsibility to fix the flaws in our housing system, not one who is comfortable with its failures. We need legislators and regulators who understand the vital role that investors, shareholders, taxpayers and consumers all play in the health and vitality of our housing finance system. Fortunately there are Democrats and Republicans who take this effort more seriously, and bipartisan consensus for meaningful reform will hopefully carry the day in the long run. Then, we can all sleep better at night.
Each presentation is 6 minutes with 2 minutes for questions. Therefore TRTC will finish their presentation after 4 pm EST. So expect no PPS action today.
That means most of the volume is buys.
Last PR was April 16. Six weeks ago.
You telling me they have had nothing to report or say for 6 weeks ?
A lot of folks here on this board would become millionaires based on these numbers.
Then don't you think the government will hide those 10-15 important pages from us ? How do we even get them ? Government can deny they do not exist.
Hate to be the dumb one but what does " defendant's appeal " mean in this case ?
Stop losses being flushed out
And yet stupid people keep setting stop losses thinking they are being smart. Utter fools.
So that means Calkin is serious about growing his own marijuana as stated in the last PR.
Come on I want a pop.
Don't feel bad I bought much higher than $0.0052.
I think the Seeking Alpha article might have caused the boom right now.
Why only up $0.09 ?
I would have expected $5+ with this Icahn news.
It's in the corrected appendix of the protective order.
Icahn & High River purchased common of Fannie at $4.03 & Freddic at $4.04 from Fairholm in March 2014
Fannie Common:The Fairholme Fund sold 3,242,468 shares to Icahn Partners LP; 2,219,932 shares to Icahn
Partners Master Fund LP; and 1,365,600 shares to High River Limited Partnership.
Freddic Common: The Fairholme Fund sold 2,726,750 shares to Icahn Partners LP; 1,866,850 shares to Icahn
Partners Master Fund LP; and 1,148,400 shares to High River Limited Partnership.
Wow, this appendix was deleted intentionally so that pps do not jump. First they put the hit news about SEC investigating Icahn then corrected appendix.
OK so 20 days left until June 22 when company highlights their achievements and future goals. I can wait.
What are you talking about ? It dropped 30%.
I'm holding for 5+ years.
When you least expect it the price will go up. It will be difficult to chase it at that time. Washington state is going live soon and other states will likely follow suit.
I agree this protective order requests are a joke. I wonder though if the government will fire these attorneys and organize a new more experienced legal team.
Yeap Tim Howard blog just showed up on my iPhone regarding Protective Order. Lots of reading.
