This is what bothers me:
https://www.cnbc.com/2017/08/14/goldman-sachs-says-bitcoin-may-rise-about-500-more.html
Just 1 problem: bitcoin itself trading at 3975.01 and bitcoin stocks seem to be following the bitcoin price.
We absolutely need bitcoin to go up to 5000 to get these things back up. I'm really hoping that the actual crypto rebounds hard. If bitcoin itself can close in the green TODAY, that would be huge.
Oh of course, every deal has to close, but most never do. All I'm saying is that until this one closes, TMPS is not worth more than .30-.40 max.
Support lines at .28, .21, .18, .12. The support at .28 is a very weak low volume support which means that they are all wash trades meant to manipulate the price up.
When a stock survives this long on wash trades, it's just a matter of time before the support ruptures and the stock crashes down to the next one.
.21 is an inevitability. We are so close! Time to sell at these prices and reload at .21.
Let's bring this thing down!
Well it's not exactly 6 planes. 3 of them are only going to be used for spare parts, which means that they are probably useless planes that have already been totaled.
This 8-K still doesn't prove anything with respect to accomplishing any feat. It only proves that the prnewswire article came from Tempus and not some 3rd party.
Yeah I just saw this on otcmarkets, didn't have the time to look at this stock much today. I will admit, this does make me feel a bit better, and I do now believe that all is not lost. There may indeed be some life.
However, this still does not prove that Tempus is not a pump and dump. Remember that the company does not pay a single cent for this project. The shareholders do.
Now the most important sentence to pay attention to is the following:
This news is on every news site, yet they all took it from prnewswire. prnewswire is the main source, but that's not the point. The point is that Tempus is using these news outlets to spread this information when they can say it directly through an 8-K or a 10-Q.
The reason is that in these prnewswire articles, they can twist all they want, to fool investors, without lying, but they can't do that in the 8-K. In the 8-k, they have to be straight forward.
What bothers me is that 6 million shares at .52. Does that mean that Tempus will buy those shares back for exactly .52? What is the date that those shares can be sold?
Too many unanswered questions regarding this dilution. This is the problem with prnewswire. They tell us nothing. Would be simpler if Tempus just gave is an 8-K explaining this deal.
This seems to be a habit. Whenever there is news involving purchases or contracts, instead of giving us an 8-K, they use prnewswire, a very dishonest newsletter. It's like they have something to hide, something that they don't want to have to put in the 8-K.
On the contrary, I'm looking at the 30 minute chart and the big green candle had a volume of 192k and the rest of the map after that had 252k. The first hour before the green candle when the dip occurred had 70,000 shares of credence to it.
To be fair, the portion of the spike on top of the red candle following the green one (rise from .48 to .50) had a volume of 58,000. (get this from the 1 minute chart) Even if those adjustments are made, the drop from .50 had just as much credence to it as the rise to .50.
And what if there is no news? Is the chart bearish or bullish? I want to know how high can this go without the news? I'm not looking to sell this same day. I want to hold this at least a few days.
Support at .35, .30, resistance at .45, .53 according to this video. Do you people think that the gap at .20 will fill or will it bounce off .35 and go back to .45?
Lot of profit on this today to be made. do you know the support lines below .40?
Oh this is a scam, alright, but it is a pump and dump that goes up and down with the price of bitcoin, so it is possible to win money with this.
We don't know anything about these planes that Tempus allegedly plans to buy. It is most definitely not the state of the art equipment. Probably from 50 years ago. Also, notice the following language:
I was actually thinking of buying at .31 on the bid, but I thought the better of it. I was going to buy 6,000 shares, but then I'm like, nobody seems to want to buy these .36's so how am I going to sell???
I must say, though, I am impressed that .30 is holding strong for now. I really want this to tank hard after the 10-Q, but we'll see.
I was thinking, at the end of the day, between 3:45 and 4:00, just short TMPS because there may be a gap down tomorrow. Then cover after the 10-Q is out because my gamble is that the 10-Q will disappoint.
Yeah .30 is now very strong resistance. If .21 does not hold, then I would think gaps at .184 and .124 would be next.
The June 1 breakaway gap filled exactly 2 weeks later. But yeah, definitely possible to make money off this stock if you sell within a week or 2
No, if .28 breaks, it will hit .21. L2 has shown nothing on the bid between .21 and .28 for 3 days now.
DO NOT BUY above .21 under ANY circumstances or money loss will occur.
If you currently own shares, put a sell stop loss at .27 and if you can, short the hell out of this at .26, then cover at .22.
Yo, are you looking at L2? Looks like a nice juicy, delicious support at .07, what do you think? Dip to 7 cents?
BTW welcome to BTSC. Nice to have you here. Gonna be exciting.
Exactly, so if you throw out Eliasch, there are no real institutional investors left, and I'm certainly not going to buy TMPS "just because Johan is the owner". The guy has never raised the stock price of a single company, so there is no reason to think that Tempus will be any different.
That being said, I will gladly show a change in heart if the SEC financials clear up the contract controversy once and for all. That's what it all comes down to. The only way I will buy Tempus is if the SEC filings state specifically that Tempus received that $45 million contract and all of that money is guaranteed and belongs to Tempus.
What is the SLDC float today?
Also, can you tell me the rate of dilution recently? It says that the OS is 43,467,404 a/o Jul 31, 2017, but what is the rate of change? What was the O/S at the beginning of the year?
And finally, assuming that restricted shares are dumped as they vest out, what will the float be at the end of the year?
So in other words, Cowen and AQR are only following Eliasch?
I don't think the selling is done though. The investors trade based on the chart and the chart makes it very clear that PGAS will hit .02. Nobody wants to buy this stock.
The other reason nobody wants to buy is because of the fast-increasing float. Float went up 6 million in 3 months. That's a lot.
So I guess the only institutional investors of Tempus are Johan, Cowen, and AQR. I'm not even going to consider AQR since their 715,771 shares is nothing for an institutional investor. There are bigger investors within the TMPS float.
Cowen has proven to be an unreliable investor. They have already proven last month that once their shares vest out, they will sell. They will never hold shares that they are not required to hold.
So bottom line: to say that TMPS is a good stock to buy and hold long just because there are 3 institutional investors is just not accurate.
Johan the BILLIONAIRE is in it to win it for himself using whatever means necessary. Let's not forget that he never bought Tempus. He strong armed his way in using leverage. They gave him those shares to satisfy part of a debt.
This is how Eliasch became a billionaire. Not buy making shareholders rich with him, but at the expense of shareholders. No company has ever increased its stock price under Eliasch.
Do not buy TMPS just because Eliasch is the owner.
How many institutional investors does Tempus have and who are they?
I looked through the filings and I didn't find any reputable institutions invested into Tempus that make me want to buy this stock.
Tempus does not have a single reputable institutional investor.
Yes i am looking at that chart and I am amazed at the number of times PGAS went back to .02. I count over 10X this thing goes back to .02 before bouncing. This really is an oscillation.
If investors are not allowed to know about the 3 big 2016 contracts, then does that mean that the information in the prnewswire articles is information that investors are not allowed to know about? Wouldn't that be a violation of the law?
Unless the information in those articles is false or misleading.
No there is no evidence in any "last 8k" of the float. does it say anywhere, "the float is..."?
The float is clearly written on this page and the numbers are also clear... Float is 30 mil and increasing very fast.
yeah show me where it talks about the 6 mil in toxic debt being "bought back". I didn't see that anywhere.
I expected PGAS to return to .02-.03 due to the massive dilution. The float is increasing very fast, already went from 24 mil to 30 mil, and it is still increasing.
PGAS has become a highly dilutive toxic stock which is why the share price just keeps tanking.
Where does it say that Johan cannot sell ANYTHING before 4/2018? Give me the link to one filing because I didn't find any. If he fills out the correct forms he can sell as the shares vest out.
I want the schedule by which TMPS restricted shares vest out and become eligible for dumping into the float.
Got your PM thanks. Volume is very low right now. Any ideas on how to get people to know about this stock? If becomes a well-known stock it is possible to explode.
Not true. Any contract, prime or sub, above 7 mil is listed on the following site:
https://www.defense.gov/News/Contracts/
In addition, the website https://www.usaspending.gov/Pages/Default.aspx is more comprehensive. They will list everything, and yet Tempus is nowhere to be found. In contrast, Boeing, Lockheed, Northrup all have their contracts listed on those 2 sites and they did announce their contracts in their SEC financials. They also told us which revenue came from which contract.
Tempus is the only company not even mentioned on the DoD website and whose 2016 contracts are not mentioned on the usaspending site, not to mention the SEC financials. In fact, the only Tempus contracts listed in the financials were also listed on the usaspending site. Those were the small (under $500,000) contracts from 2015 and before that were proven to exist
What's the proof that the float has not increased in the last 2 months? We know that the float increased 20X from 7/2016 to 6/2017, yet during that year there was no proof that the float was increasing. Proof came after that in the 8-Ks. There will never be proof of Eliasch's share-selling until after they are sold.
Just because there is no "proof" of dilution does not mean that there is no dilution. The OTC markets listing is outdated:
https://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/tmps/profile
Averaging down is not the way to trade PGAS since it is a slow bleed. Avg down only helps if there is a rebound, which I do not see happening since RSI is resetting.
I would say just sell everything and reload much lower.
How do we know that a merger will happen this week?
And if a merger does not happen, then is .10 a guarantee?
Read the financials here very carefully:
https://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/tmps/profile
It says very clearly that:

In many of my posts, I mentioned that the float multiplied by 20 in the last year. I also emphasized consistently that the fact that the float went up 20X and the O/S doubled in 1 year is exactly the reason why TMPS is a very bad stock full of toxicity and dilution.
I also said REPEATEDLY that the Tempus management has refused to update its information because they want people to believe the misinformation. They know that the fact that this stock is getting diluted this fast is a red flag, so they have no reservations against the people believing that the share structure from a year ago remains unchanged.
Tempus has an opportunity to state in its 10-Q that:
1. As of 6/30/2017, there are ______ outstanding shares
2. As of 6/30/2017, the float is ______
Let's see if they do that.
But that's just the thing. Tempus is making it as difficult as possible to follow the money. They don't want us knowing where their revenue is coming from. If they did, they would state so in their 8-K's, 10-K's and 10-Q's.
Yup, the 10-Q will bring the price lower IF it is a nonevent because the change in hype will be negative. If everybody is excited going into the 10-Q and then it turns up empty, those who bought due to excitement will sell and reload lower.
However, the 10-Q has the potential to be a blockbuster event. All that Tempus needs to do is mention the 3 colossal 2016 contracts that are nowhere mentioned in any of the previous filings or in any government database, but only on prnewswire, a very sly newsletter.
The 10-Q should focus on the $45 million contract. I'd like to bring to attention what it says on prnewswire:
