That’s a great find about those seven epiphany cafe locations. But I discovered something Even more damaging. These addresses are not in commercially viable areas, they are
in residential locations.

That means that these cafes are operating out of home addresses I’m sure against local zoning laws. And look at this last one…. It’s the address of Mark Epifano. Shame on him for trying to run an operation out of his home residence.
Now I know what some of you may be thinking, Most of these alternate names for Epiphany café were registered back in 2016 and 2017. And I realize some of you smarter than I understand that businesses often in the beginning and without Physically owned brick and mortar locations often use the home residence of one or many of the founding officers. Those of you smarter than I also know that often businesses are divided up into various subsidiaries for various tax and legal reasons.
But I’m pretty sure that’s not the case here, someone should inform the local zoning officials about these serious violations. I am pretty confident that these guys are working out of these home residences, because if they weren’t,… and these were just names and addresses used for legalities… Anybody thinking they were the registrations for actual Epiphany stores would come off as looking kind of…. Well, you know!
Restating my new position about SFIO. I have come to a new revelation!!!! I now see the point about SFIO as has been expressed here by a few long term investors . I can't believe I've been ignoring all this information for so long.
I can now clearly see all the Abnormal share selling Caused by all these free shares that have been given out and can self replicate into a never ending supply.
I do now think that Jeths Previous profession was that of a plumber or possibly a janitor.
Even if some of the reviews are actually of other restaurants that got mixed up with Epiphany... Or are about dishes in cafes that they don't even serve..... I now realize that if any donut store doesn't have at least a 5 star rating..... They are obviously not worth visiting. ( Those multiple 3 star ratings for the likes of Duncan or Krispy kreme are obviously just anomalays)
I too now think that the value of SFIO Is less than The total of all their assets minus all liabilities (Just because all viable stocks Trade within a range of PS or PE ratios Means absolutely nothing for this one individual stock)
Given all the deceptions and clear indications (like having $2B in property assets...claims they actually NEVER made) that this stock is not worth Even half a cent, I'm contemplating selling off my entire Quantity. I'm trying to decide if I should sell it off all at once( Which could very well get us to that under penny That many are hoping for) ..OR.... Sell it off in batches so I can get a better price over the longer term. Any suggestions?
But that's not the end, Here's what I think my strategy is going to be going forward. I'm gonna hope and wait for the company to actually finish an audited financial(as if!!) , AND, if. By some absolute miracle They get above 4 cents of share..... I'm gonna take all that money I sold at around a penny average And dump it back into the stock.... I'm thinking I might be able to Get back to holding only 5 million shares.
I know what you're thinking, Why buy back into a company that you've now determined is absolutely worthless and incapable of growing or going anywhere. Inferior management, bad, even if mislabeled, reviews, toxic dumping, Replicating shares, Holographic fake businesses, etc, etc?
Well, I can't explain it, All I know is I'm going completely on hope and faith in the expertise of those few here that have shown me the true light about this company and its future.
If or when I decide to finally act, I'll try to tend away from dumping all my shares at once in order to save a few here From undo price dropping... Even though it will be toxic.
Any words of encouragement for my plan of action will be greatly appreciated.
Please respond with thumbs up/ down..or any OTHER emojis you think are appropriate for this plan of action!!
You mean that one that turned out to NOT be Epiphany at all but Bakenev...something? I think that Average is wrong, 1st I think we should throw out all the 4 plus star ones because they're obviously fake. And I think we should include the one Star one, Even if it's not epiphany( Whoever posted those ratings should have gotten the company right).
I would say the ratings can't average up to more than 2.1..... Complete garbage cafe. Those Duncan and Krispy kreme ratings of 3 I'm sure are just Customers rating the wrong store!
Hallelujah, I finally see the light
Hey, great post about Philipine real estate in dumps. For those reading it...ignore these parts
In the first six months, FDI posted a net inflow of $4.6 billion, up 3.1% on an annual basis.Despite this slump, a net inflow means more FDIs entered the country against those that left.That said, FDIs represent firmer commitments from foreign investors that generate jobs for Filipinos unlike the so-called “hot money”, which enters and leaves markets with ease.
The BSP projected it would rack up $11 billion in net FDI inflows this year, higher than the actual $10.5 billion generated last year.
Citing “structural reforms” such as liberalization laws and a campaign to attract more foreign investors, Velasquez believes the Philippines could endure a global economic recession.
“Among countries in the world, Southeast Asia looks poised to weather the global downturn in better shape, and the Philippines should benefit from this,” she said.
No, no, no....I sure you were right the first time. I'm guessing he never heard of ANY stores. And I'm no sure that those printed articles about Epiphany were complete fakes. In my opinion.

So for all investors joining here, This is exactly The repeated statements that have been thoroughly disproven yet still seem to show up As if it is new and factual information. This is now the 4th time this has been posted, In case someone to claim they've never heard it before.
Let's start with a Epiphany cafe Henderson
You read the reviews and you're hearing all these comments about various Indian foods. I didn't Realize epiphany cafes had such diverse menu options. BUT
In restaurantguru listing For Epiphany Henderson
https://www.google.com/amp/s/restaurantguru.com/amp/Bikanervala-Auckland-5 (notice no epiphany)
you find this link for their website
https://restaurantguru.com/link/52831498
The sad but hilarious thing you see when going to this link is that it is not even EPIPHANY CAFE... But some place called Bikenervala that offers, surprise surprise, Indian food.
Obviously, somewhere somehow this restaurant got screwed up with Epiffany cafe.
Those involved can apologize for jumping the gun and not researching further.
As for the St Lukes location. Something didn't smell right there either. It's possible they had some staffing issues which hopefully they have replaced. But one thing I noticed is that for those that are Within the last 3 months, Someone from epiphany is responding to the customer complaints... Which is exactly what we should expect and want them to do. But here's the funny part. These 3 epiphany responses will probably give you a clue as to at least a good part of the problem.... It might sound similar to the same issue with Henderson.
Hi Arishma, thank you for your feedback. In this case, you might have mistakenly commented in a wrong business. This is Epiphany Cafe, omelette ciabatta is not one of our product offerings unfortunately. Feel free to drop by Epiphany Cafe St Lukes to try out our pillow-soft donuts, coffee, iced drinks and many more in your next visit in Westfield St Lukes. We are sure our products will be your next favourite!
Hi Liang, unfortunately you commented in a wrong cafe. We are Epiphany Cafe St Lukes and we don't not serve the product in the photo you added. Could you please remove this from our review section? Thanks
Hi Deb, thank you for your review and we appreciate your high ratings. In this case, you might have mistakenly commented in a wrong business. This is Epiphany Cafe, we do not sell Great Mac Cheese in our café unfortunately. Feel free to visit Epiphany Cafe St Lukes to try out our pillow-soft donuts, coffee, iced drinks and many more in your next visit in Westfield St Lukes. You will love it. Have a great day!
That perhaps before they started started answering customers there were other other foods that doesn't sound like those that epiphany would offer.
So once again, Nice try!! However you might want to look into things a little more deeply before you start posting smack..
Anybody else feel free to repost this information in case certain people can't get the link open or just ignore its existence... Or tell us it's not true.
Since you brought it up. Thought maybe this needs to be reposted from last night.... It does go towards showing How often these reviews can be wrong or mislabeled And most don't bother To Notice the anomali's or consider that situation change.
Many of the reviews of the companies in one of the touted "best of" list were worse than anything Epiffany had ( Implying that epiphany should have been on that list..baahaaa)? That boads a lot of confidence for these so called "lists"
BEAKING NEWS: MORE FALSE STATEMENTS EXPOSED!!!
Someone must have spent hours looking through all the reviews to find these bad ones..... But if you look at them for just a couple minutes you automatically see that something's wrong. Of course You'd actually have to read something to figure it out.

Baahaaaa, And how does Google verify credible reviewers? Do they hunt each one down or call them up up and ask them if that was really them? I PROVED Last night that Some of these reviews aren't even about the company they Show on their headline. "Epiphany Henderson" Is in reality some Indian restaurant of a completely different name. And many of the other reviews Are about products that epiphany doesn't offer which was spelled out By epiphany's response to the customer's reviews That they had the wrong company
So, Yeah, Everything Google posts and all those reviews and customers are absolutely 100% authentic!!!NOT!!!
Yet the same false claims are stated time and time and time again... Embarrassing.
As far as store number it looks like they're headed towards more core product, shared type operations. So yes this is something that can be geared up quickly. And if you go back and Look at that information about US Dunkin sales, Some of those operations do as well are better than the brick and mortar stores. I'm sure this is where big Lous operation This headed as well. I suppose the pictures of their 2 operations within the Sports stadium that they showed is all some kind of photoshopped fake 2...hmmm
Again that the company is circulating That they have 2 billion dollars worth Of real estate assets. I've asked multiple times for the proof of anything official coming out of S FIO that claims this number..... You have provided nothing!!
At least Even you are now saying that the sales target was "projected"... 1st time that hasn't been Mistated
There's only one thing that doesn't fool investors.... Most here know what that is.
And after all of this you still claim that you're gonna buy 5 million shares if it gets audited and up to 4 cents..... For such a horrible company? Baaaahaaaaaa
P.s. How come there are reviews of many of the companies in one of your "best of" list were worse than anything Epiffany had? That boads a lot of confidence for your so called "lists"
Here the reviews of a few of those stores that were listed IN YOUR Yelp "Best Donuts" list. Worst than anything Epiphany has. These are "the best" ...baahhaaaaaa.
https://m.yelp.com/biz/krispy-kreme-auckland-2
https://m.yelp.com/biz/dunkin-donuts-auckland-4
https://m.yelp.com/biz/krispy-kreme-auckland-3
https://m.yelp.com/biz/southern-maid-auckland
Ultimately, As long as these stores are good enough to keep the majority of people coming in happy And can sell in large quantities.... Nobody gives a c*** about 1 or 2 bad ratings.... Very very few people bother to check that before Just going in somewhere to quickly grab any kind of comfort food.
You talked about the number of epiphany stores.... What about the fact that there's only 15 Dunkin donuts and about 5 Krispy kreme stores.... Shouldn't they have a lot more given their notoriety?
I have a feeling, And it's probably a good idea that they're going more towards the cut down, fewer products Type operations. It's getting into larger food menus That cafes and restaurants have more trouble with ratings. Donuts, some treats and coffee, Easier to keep inventory flowing Without the issues of time that tend to affect food products.
BTW, Epiphany Cafe Glenfield Mall.
Moving to a brick and mortar within a few yards down the road..bigger!!!

The thing you should be laughing at, It is the fact that ALL of these attempts at opinion and "facts" to discredit or throw doubt On the franchise...... Have been thoroughly debunked and shown for the falsehoods they are.
This whole "bad rating" attempt Is just one of many , that I Can't even put a count on anymore, Shoot from the hip reactionary Lie or half truth at best.
Shoot 1st ....and never ask or care what the answer was.

I'm sure you could try and make this case for a huge chunk of OTC stocks. Ultimately, In the long term, The more they expand and the closer they get to up listing..... The more that all that matters is is where it's price is trading in comparison to the overall market price. Or in other words, Doesn't matter who ,or how ,How many, or how they got their stock shares..... The market will eventually price the stock, Around a range of average PS or PE ratios As it relates to its market cap. The closer gets to a realistic NASDAQ listing..... The tighter it's going to trade within those ranges. You get your occasional abnormally like Tesla, But most healthy companies Stay within reason.
That's the difference, Most of us are OK with seeing this through quite a bit longer..... You're still looking for short term movements. They do massive dilution without a clear cut reason or a pretty solid case It will pay for itself..... Then you can start Raising concern about shared dumping et cetera.
We don't have to prove you wrong... You have to prove that they're wrong. In the only way that you're gonna convince everybody that there's only 2 or 3 operational stores.... You're gonna have to go there and do a video log of each and every location.
Those that are Listed as closed may be a temporary situation or they just decided that was not good location. That's not unusual for any chain operations. I post a bunch of articles about Duncan and Krispy and 2 local New Zealand shops shutting down..... Doesn't mean a thing as long as they Add more somewhere else.
BTW, I don't know where you get this world best donut title cause that's never been stated
Oh, This is for everybody, if you're using Google maps street view to verify whether a cafe is there or not, Guess what, Those pictures are not real time!!! Street views in larger cities can be updated once a year but in most cases those photos take up to three years to update!!! Whatever you're seeing may be long before epiphany came into that location.
Also, The at least 8 that are in metro marts and possibly more soon, Are probably not gonna have large signage Of Epiffany.
AND Since most those stores are a year old or less, They're not going to show up on Google maps either.
A few of us have been saying that here for Over a year. Those of us that have been through a couple major market crashes know sometimes it's just about patience.and accumulation
Back before any any financials were known, A certain investor was putting the value of this at anywhere between 20 and 50 million market cap. Since the OTC crashing and before, That same investor is now saying it's not worth 5 million or was that 10 million.... Can't make up the mind.
I have posted multiple times that Taking just the average OTC P/S ratio of 6.5ish , This should have a market cap of a 160 million. Now consider how many OTC pink stocks DONT have good revenue, net profit margin , positive book value, no toxic debt and only recently very minimal dilution( Which was offset by reduction in share)!!!
But I suppose a valuation of less than their book value is credible too (Which one's the emoji for snickering)
OH, Let's not forget there's been no less than 6 projections that this is definitely going under a penny over the last 3 months or so. Can someone here verify that .0188 is close to 2 than 1 cent, lol
I am glad that anybody new coming here has enough facts and DD from those that have done seriously research and see the total company for the hugely undervalued stock it is. While at the same time, Being able to notice all Often repeated claims of impending doom and selective articles that in my opinion have been debunked Multiple multiple times.
If you look at the list of their locations... You will see 8 are in metro marts... I believe the plan is to continue adding to those stores along with others.
Krispy does almost all their sales in individual convenience stores and Duncan Has more in side convenience store operations then full stores. As long as they're expanding And each location is profitable... I don't care if Sell them at girl scout card tables.
Big lous feeds a lot of grocery stores and convenient marts too so I see this as a direction they're moving more towards.
Keep in mind there are other companies in the conglomerates as well.
https://epiphanycafe.co.nz/epiphany-cafe-to-offer-its-pillow-soft-donuts-at-selected-metromart-convenience-stores/
MORETHB Has listed the epiphany location site multiple times
Trying to get around the fact that some have been called out or shown to be "fair weather" supporters. I'm just pointing out that you're so called valuations before anybody was even a 100% sure what their revenues or profit margins were..... We're much much higher than you're proclaiming them to be now. Trading at Less than book value value is considered over valued...bbaaaahhaaaaaaa. Show me one serious analyst Or stock valuation method that proves your claims!!!+ Although I've probably asked this from you at least 20 times and I'll and all I get is crickets. So please give us the basis for your valuation method other than what you just pull out of the air.
Oh the inhumanity..a donut store might have closed down!!!! Never before have we seen this, especially with chain stores!!!
Oh, wait,

1) Unprovable dumping of "free" shares
2) Malining And continually making false claims about previous management experience
3) False accusations about lack of media or internet content about the cafes
4) Unprovable 2nd party claims after continued posting of "no media sources"..after Posting them at least 3 times
5) False claims about promising revenue projections or their source( Their latest webcast shows where they "project" future revenue.. You might want to take a look at it before Posting false claims)
6) on, and on,and, on
YET, With all these "concerns", Some claim they're going to buy 5 million shares based mostly on a completed audit.
How exactly is a completed audit going to Answer those issues I just listed? Based on the above accusations it seems like An audit wouldn't be enough to buy 5 million shares!!!
Since this will be the 5th time Ive posted the info and articles , thought may be mixing up the order around may help those that may not be able to open links or read. Despiration is really setting in.

BUT... Since Showing some obscure and random "Best" rating website matters.. heres a few.

Is in my humble honest opinion, These attempts at Selectively trying to put doubt on Epiphany's existence or scope of operation.... Are just the next step in a long line of Claims about Abnormal share dumping, Or proven false claims about Jeths being a plumber, Or implying they might only have 2 or 3 stores as opposed to over 60, or trying to pin down Revenue projections as if they were absolute promises, etc, etc, etc.... thar are pretty clear to most here what the intent is.... You of course can decide for yourself.
We can add to all the evidence, the fact that even though I posted many of the links You see above Previously, It was still posted later that this evidence didn't exist. PLUS, the selective manipulation of sites like Tripadvisors, continued "plumber" claims, etc...its like true facts and honest "concerns" don't matter, just sensational narratives of gloom!!....
Watch the cards in my right hand, But don't pay attention what I'm doing with my left.
Talk about selective cherry picking!!!!
First, What's not being said is that Trip adviser can be very much manipuated. You'll notice in the one Listed that The address refers to the "North island". Well here's a trip adviser that puts Epiphany in at #9
https://investorshub.advfn.com/uimage/uploads/2022/9/10/ssonwScreenshot_20220910-125923_Samsung_Internet.jpg
Why,...here its #25
https://www.tripadvisor.com/Restaurants-g255111-c8-Rotorua_Rotorua_District_Bay_of_Plenty_Region_North_Island.html
It should also be noted that these numbers that look like ranking aren't based on the rating of the cafe as some of those have worst ratings than Epiphany.. Although they're all relatively high
And here Is a listing from Yelp!!
https://m.yelp.com/biz/epiphany-cafe-hamilton
SECOND, Those articles rating donuts are mostly just individual websites Idoing fluff piecr ratings for those shops that are mostly in their area. Of those posted you'll notice A couple or 3 of those same donut shops showing up on other lists, but the rest of them are different from each other.
It's good to keep in mind that most of those Stores that are being rated (not TripAdvisor bogus#s) are Specifically gourmet Bakeries and most of them don't have more than 1 or 2 locations. While Epiphany seems to have good ratings about their donuts being good, They are a franchise business that's going to be more in line with the quality of a Duncan or Krispy kreme. I would rather have lots of stores with A "good" product than one That only has revenue from one niche source!!!
You should also take notice that the other "lists" about the "best donuts" that include Duncan and Krispy kreme, those two actually have worse review ratings Then the ones I'm showing for Epiphany. Its kind of strange that Some of the "10 best donut stores" have 3 out of 5 star ratings...hmmmm
BTW, Did anybody happen to notice that 3 of those "ratings" were before 2018.... When epiphany was only a year too old.
BUT... Since Showing some obscure and random "Best" rating website matters.. heres a few.

NOW, Apparently some of you need to see other write UPS about Epiphany on something other than Press releases or websites. Here's a few articles from local Print media That actually go back a few years, To give you an idea of the longevity Of the cafe As well as their strong commitment to the community. There's something else much more recent about their sponsoring a kid's basketball team but I didn't want to take the time to look it up and There's other things if you want to go look for it. I think I've proved my point. Although I bet anybody That 1 or 2 will find all sorts of excuses of why it's wrong or not the same!! Lol

Lolol
Well I guess if anybody wants to research investing into one of the handful of doughnut or cafe stores out of thousands in New Zealand... That are listed in those "articles".... Then I guess cabaz did them a great favor.
If you're looking for validation for Epiphany cafe.... I guess I'll just have to refer to the one's I posted.
Baaaahhaaa.. 5th time posted and it still doesn't do what was intended, that epiphany has no "media" history. Keep trying
Embarassing
First of All I'd like to agree that SFIOs twitter Post was... "awesome"
"However, ZERO mentions by any F&B journalist or publisher in New Zealand of Epipany Cafe." Baaahhhaaaahhhaaaa
That now makes FOUR times for this accusation after posted proof was given proving it wrong.
Personally I can't see myself making the same proven false statement 4 times in a row... But that's just me.
Just Happen to notice that Wm Marsh Commented on S FIO September 6 Twitter post.... With one word..."Awesome" Previously he signed one of his other posts there with his ihub Handle.
But, but, but, but..I'm SURE there is at least 100, no 250M More toxic free shares preparing to unload on the market!!!
Are you talking about lmvs ONE (secondhand source) "friend"? I don't know of any other "citizens" talking smack about Epiphany.
Any other posters FROM NZ? Any comments?
Maybe another claim on " no evidense"... for the 4th time!!
.
Everybody posting here has seen or can go back and check the posts where I have posted the articles and "best of" lists for Epiphany...MULTIPLE TIMES!!! The articles list the newspaper at the top of where they came from. As far as your "best of" list, Those are generic and far between and most of yours are more than 4 years old.... And I also posted the ones listing Epiphany.
Oh, And none of those List of yours come from sources that are considered The premiere in their industry.
I'm beginning to think the response I see here is just some automated bot that that continues to post the same thing based on another poster's identity... And has no idea what they had posted.
Can anybody else please acknowledge and maybe post the numbers Of previous post that listed all the links that someone claims don't exist. Maybe By a few other posters giving evidence of their existence, it will stop this Constant repetition accusing of having ..... no evidence.
Has he heard of all the."other" 3000 cafe and donut stores?
Which is it..no mention...or the few open, closed?
Morethb checked on most..if you doubt him or their numbers, then call or visit everyone!! I would never trust somebody ,outside management,; opinion or research On anything that serves to disprove The information provided by the company. And I'm also curious why you ignore all the other conglomerates and sources of revenue and growth they have developed since then.
Of course some are going to close, move or reopen. In our area one dunkin moved to building and a couple half convenient store locations closed...as long as there is net increase is all I care about.
Anyone that has those serious doubts and constant "questioning" of same issue..... well, everyone knows their options
Do you or do you not understand the basics of a stock or company's price valuation. Most stocks eventually as they get closer to the higher tiers end up trading within a band of ratios based on sales or profit margin as compared to the current value of their stock price and market cap.
By these industry standards, SFIO is stupidly undervalued, As I have said here repeatedly, Big lous revenues by itself makes the share price fair.
I can't make it any simpler than that, If you have some other form of valuation for stocks or some other standard you use for buying or selling..... I guess you're going to have to decide for yourself whether you stay or go.
I Only my humble opinion opinion and standards for stock trading, Until there's evidence To support a bleaker picture, Very little serves to continue bringing up same issues and getting the same answers.
Why I do believe that statement is correct!!! Baahhaaaahgaaa
Thats what I've asked
Point being....Good and high valuations...WHEN LITTLE WAS KNOWN. LOW valuation when finally publish numbers looked GREAT.......which is it? Inconsistent based on "owned" and "sold". Good when needed to profit....bad when don't care.
There's a name for that....most here know!!!
I took some of those from your "Best donut" lists and did a quick run thru NZ newspaper search site. I got a few article hits on those very few that showed up on multiple lists...but nothing on many of them. Let alone the other 3000 vendors. I fid find these less than flattering articles about the Big two chains in NZ

As I posted, nothing but good press for Epiohany!!!!!
Things were all positive and rosie at first. When SFIO didn't immediately finish an Audited financial...things got " darker"
I guess some investors think that by "switching narratives", somehow management is going to say, "ooo, an investor seems mad, we better do what they ask right away"
Personally I don't get " someone" claiming they'll purchase $5M IF they get Audit AND it reaches 4 cents....then seem to "discourage" other investors from getting in lower? May be it just me!!
Nice try!! Hilarious given YOU were the one trying to turn "directories of where the donut shops are operating" ..into "rating list"!!! Like that one that shows Dunkin an KC as a top ten donut..(in a selected region) when BOTH had dismally customer rating compared to the others AND the ones I showed for Epiphany. I showed the the same tripadvisor putting Epiphany in a "top" spot. Which is still BUGUS as it can be manipulated!! Let me guess you didn't see those either
3000 donut and coffee shops...how many of those got onto one of your "lists" bahhaaahhaaa
I posted some "rating lists" with Epiphany..which is more than 99% of NZ vendors!!! How many of those have more than 1 or 2 locations??
Desperation setting in
OH BTW, realize this may not be easy to understand but
NEW ZEALAND IS NOT CHINA!!! BBaaahajaha
So none of the articles GOING BACK 5 YEARS or Google map info, or congloms like Big Lous hold any sway??? I know what I'd be doing if I was as "unsure" as you appear to be!!! I know personally, I go with the perpondonce of evidence and only "look back" if SERIOUS, AND PROVABLE information comes to light
By all means, trust a friend that was in NZ...how long ago?
You may consider that in researching this "lists" there are more that 3000 cafes or donut shops in NZ
Once again, embarrassing. WHAT DO THESE SAY? Still having problems opening links? You can explain why MOST your "examples" are 4 years old? And none of those " lists are used for "chain" operations....mostly "gormet" made in store products. Ultimately these lists mean nothing but your "claim" there are none for SFIO....is OBVIOUSLY...FALSE!!! AND also printed articles...which I posted

I'll tell you what, you find all the articles about Dunkin or Krispy Kreme that aren't corporate ads....and let's see how many there are!!! I couldn't find any, let see what you come up with!!!
I gotta say, nothing personal, but I can't figure your angle out.
Did you not read the various articles either?
You already mentioned those and I posted some for Epiphany and exposed the "bogus" "rating" of sham sites like Tripadvisor, In my opinion!! Even posted more print media articles.
Are you just not reading my posts??? May be you are having trouble opening the links?
Anybody else NOT able to open the proof of previous bugus claims??
I can only speak for myself, but if I kept posting false statements after being proved wrong..TWICE....I'd be a little embarrassed to keep posting the same claim over and over and over and over again......but hey, thats just me!!!
Let's not forget that most of those "best donut" fluff articles are over 4 years old!!!!
It wasn't to long after(Juneish) posts like this that accusations of the " toxic dumping" started, and was supposedly being done for months before that (not my words) Now, even though it's never been specified how much Per day ,per week, per month et cetera is considered "toxic"......but if its been going on for say 5 months...and it's only "toxic dumper" shares being dumped...AND Longs have a good chunk of the unrestricted tied up......How can there be any left...hmmmmm!!!
And who has them? Not officers, Not associated personal...."free shares"? Its amazing that that these "free shares" equal a greater percentage than retail, officers etc....hmmmm
Of course,, this kind of "reasoning" can also be seen on an OTC Stock LFE*....lots of "dumping" other there...at least one investor thought so!!! They must have stopped though as it was soon after that, that SFIO got the privilege to become the new casualty of "toxic dumpers".
