Fable of the Innovative Baker
Objective : Feed and nourish the hungry masses
Baker :
With our secret recipe, we can bake a loaf of bread using unique ingredients and proprietary processes, that just by eating it, you can be nourished and stave off hunger for a week!
Humanitarians:
Hurrah hurrah....the end of hunger and famine! Bring it to the market now! People are starving and dying!
Baker:
We are still fine tuning the recipe and we must make sure it does not harm the people.
Other bakeries:
Whoa....if those guys can make a loaf of bread that can nourish and feed the people.....that will end the sales of our daily bread! Let’s hire some food critics to write stuff about them and maybe bankrupt that upstart baker!
.......5 years later......
Humanitarians:
We distributed your bread to some sample communities and it works....bring it to the market now!
Baker:
We hear you and we have requested that our contract manufacturers modify, upgrade and semi automate their bakeries to cater for the potential spike in demand, apply for clearances, pass health safety checks and make sure we are ready to launch the product! We are so confident that we will receive the necessary clearances, we have even paid our Contractors retainers to keep their facilities on standby!
Humanitarians:
We need it now! We need it now! People are starving! Take it out of the oven!
Shareholders in the bakery:
Now! Now!Now!
Baker:
We are wrapping up our submissions with the nutritionists / health authorities from 4 different countries. We need to get it right....the health authorities must be assured that it can really nourish the masses and that the criteria for measuring its success is acceptable to them....we are not like the Other Bakers...they engage the authorities on different terms and can get the time of day from them.....walking on the fairways during Charity Golf games, Cancun destination seminars.....our Baker...hmmmm...maybe lunch?
In the meantime, Other Bakers / Hired food critics/ Disgruntled Bakery Shareholders:
Wonder Bread does not exist/Health Authorities will not allow it on supermarket shelves/ Bakers are only paying themselves/ ....or....but ...but...you said it will be ready by last year....but....but...
Baker:
The bread is not ready to be taken out of the oven.....if it is taken out too early and is under baked, no one will be able to eat our Wonder Bread and it will never see the light of day. The Other Bakers win and will continue selling their daily bread. Humanitarians do not see the end of famines and the masses will continue to be hungry!
Moral of the fable:
If ain’t ready, it ain’t ready....I trust the Baker and their baker Advisors to take it out of the oven at the right time, aware of their commercial reality, they only have one shot at the prize and not bow to pressure by Humanitarians and Other Bakers.....if it fails because it is under baked....the shareholders lose their money but more importantly, humanity does not get to eat Wonder Bread....the Humanitarians can just protest..because....anecdotally it appears to work.... if only the Baker had given more thought to his stats measurement plan and obtain a nudge, wink from the authorities but by then they can only say...ooops....and move on to the next Wonder Bread and the Other Bakers win, again!
The End
Reading SoS has more content and substance than reading posts that add nothing but sniping and the usual refrain of “sham” and “are we there yet”?
Logic dictates that if there is still $0.20 to the $1 in a “failed and fraudulent” investment, one should just cut their losses but to contribute in the chorus of proclaiming it a “sham or failed”......only .red flags their motives!
Wash, rinse and repeat.
Ex Enron Linda CHECK
Failed Trial CHECK

Company has an endless supply of shares to sell CHECK

Guys, feel free to add to their cycle as the naysayer brigade has come round to the Ex Enron negative playlist for the umpteenth time.
Come on, give us break and just make up new FUD...very tiresome old material!
Repent.... the end is nigh for you guys!
It’s a desperate need to dredge up new crapola,.....might as well jus invent some FUD for newbies!!
Liar liar pants on fire!
Jerry,
Point that should be noted is that without major shareholder, the company would have gone the way that many naysayers have wanted.....BK and sold for a song a’la Dendreon.
Terms given were far more favourable than what other third parties would charged a company with the kind of distress NWBO was experiencing.
In more “favoured “ companies by Wall St players, insider / major shareholder forking our funds to their own companies would have been received with bullishness and hurrahs! Unfortunately we did have such “Cramers” on our side!
Jerry,
are you stating that through various machinations she is putting our funds into her pockets or just being repaid for various loans extended to these entities?
I’d love for you clarify, if you are as you claim to be from the finance industry, you should know that by your post construction you are insinuating that “something” is not quite right and we longs are just blind to this!
I await your response.
Loyal Long
Exactly....we invested money based on DD but for someone like Duffy, who knows the industry and the immunotherapy space and then consciously moving over from Merck.....betting his career and future on a micro company like NWBO?
That speaks volumes to me that we are track for a successful outcome to the trial!
A fine of $250K by the SEC???
In SECspeak....”couldn’t find anything of consequence after so many years of investigation.....just pay us for the man hours spent and we will call it quits”!
Another “scary” FUD goes the same as way as the numerous frivolous lawsuits that “they” have been throwing at NWBO to distract management! Folks on Wall St know that this fine of $250K was just a “face saving” payment to the SEC and is equivalent to a fine paid for a parking violation in the real world.
The litter and debris have been cleared from the runway......
flight DCVL is cleared for takeoff......!
GLTALs
Completely agree with you Gary!
Do you “smart” guys really think the common Joe Investor are trained medical professionals or understand the medical jargon being used in the company’s PR or watch presentations by Marnix or Linda Liau? Or even Google what DCells are? They depend on Big Biz or Cramer shows to give them advice and dumb things down for them.The appeal and popularity of clowns like Cramer (with his props and sound effects) and “analysis” by political scientist Adam F to bring in the average Joe Investor.
I hope the management puts it back up on the website because not all potential investors are intellectually equipped to understand what is going on in the DC Vax or immunotherapy.field.
A message is STILL a message, no matter whether it is followed by sound effects or not! Joe now knows what Dendritic Cells are and he has been DIRECTED to NWBO’s website!
We need the Cramer/ Adam type investor crowd to start a stampede after all....the colour of Joe’s money is the same as that of Johnny Cerebral!
Perhaps management’s strategy is to appeal to Joe Investor for support? Joe”s money is still legal tender...the last I checked because “high brow” only comes in at $5....when Joe is exiting....that is where Joe takes his hot money out and Johnny Cerebral sees the long term potential of this treatment for solid tumours....which according to Les...is “80% of all cancers”!
Good job Les!
Then get off the roller coaster!
“The Efficient Market is not nearly as reliable as the Vegas bookmakers”
Ah....the old Mr. Market has spoken!
Guess we know now why the price is being artificially suppressed on every spike!
Apparently they also don’t know the difference between buying on a squeeze and buying a block.....but I think they know that!
Coming out in droves, aren’t we?
Think about it,
- you think NW’s managers don’t know that Phase 3 results will be out soon? With pps having the potential to soar?
- how long do you really think it would take for his 24m so called (FUD inspired) “sales” to be completed?
- he has other assets to sell other than this 24m x 0.25 to cover his billions?
- walk down by a cent or two at less than 1m a day? Walk down or legit sales? By whom? if you say it’s a retail investor, would you sell at .001 difference between bid and ask?
- if you are a Long suffering long as some claim to be.....yeah, you bought at $2/3/4 or whatever price and you know results are “round the corner”.... you’d sell at this level?
- if the trials have failed why buy at 0.10? Wait till it’s .001....you’d get more for your money.
GLTA (real) Longs!
Pick me ! Pick me!
I BELIEVE!
Thanks Senti. Very illuminating. Thumbs up!
Surprise surprise! You are slightly pregnant!
BWIS,
if you don’t have trust that management is doing its best for the company, move on...the sniping and whining only indicates an immaturity in your experience in the marketplace.. don’t ask anyone to reimburse you for your losses or make good, the investment game doesn’t work that way!
Either you are pregnant or not...from your posts, you seem to be slightly pregnant,
Thumbs Up!
Good one Dad88!
LOL!
Thumbs Up!
JerryCampbell,
You serious about NW selling his shareholding’s to raise cash? Let’s see, he has held this stock all these years, not sold a single share but at the current price at $0.27....do the math Mr. “ former algo trader/fund manager” ....to raise funds....hmmmm...
Man, with that one statement....sounds like you are scraping the bottom of the barrel. LP, again at the heart of the price declines.....? A tad worn out ‘45 record?
Calls to mind this.....from SoS
“A key skillset of the wolfpack is sophisticated use of social media. As they begin to stalk and attack, they conjure up arguments that maintain that the company’s technology is old, flawed and worthless; that management is corrupt; and that anyone with a positive view is being paid to pump the stock. They then methodically repeat and spread misinformation following the teachings of Hermann Goering who said “A lie told once is just a lie, but a lie told a thousand times becomes the truth.” Legitimate news organizations are often swept up in this and become unwitting participants. A key objective of the wolfpack was succinctly summarized by one hedge fund manager who said “We are going to make management and the company so toxic that no investor will touch it.”The consistent wolfpack goal is to severely damage stock prices and indeed the holy grail of the wolfpack is to drive a company into bankruptcy.”
QED
Wow! 20% haircut just because there was no “perceived” update? Come on, I’m sure you guys can do better than that!
....”Mr. Market” can only cough up 1.3m shares to feed into DI’s investor network?
....let’s see more shares “dumped” by disappointed shareholders!
.... this is so scary....backing up the truck out of fear!
Thanks shorts...Mr. Market has spoken?
.....DI’s client network just scooped up a bunch of cheap shares!
After this down spike.....it’s off to the races!
I have been in this investment even before NW and have averaged down all the way till $0.15, so no prizes as to how many shares I have and yes, I do feel the same frustration as many longs here.
However, having said all that, I don’t want a rushed SAP submission which may not pass muster...if you believe that management is stalling or have some nefarious reason for doing so, that’s your belief and entitled to your view.
As for me, I don’t think they are doing it for any other reason but to ensure a successful outcome to the trial, after all, I believe that they have more to lose than many of us here. Given that the players in the Pharma space do not play by “Queesberry Rules”....I think it appropriate for NWBO to have both “belt and suspenders” when dealing with the RAs!
Bon fortuna!
Well said Iwasadiver!
My very sentiments because the narrative of these shysters was to tout this trial as a sprint rather than a marathon (that it actually is) and calling out at every turn, are we there yet? Selling the story that management have failed us or are incompetent, dragging out just to continue drawing a monthly salary (how stupid is that? If LP has 40m shares...let’s see at $10.....worth $400million? Hmmmm, as opposed to $40k per month..... drag it another year.....hmmm....$480k....hmmmm.....now where did I put my Harvard degree?) or dragging their feet, distracting etc....and then these shysters create artificial deadlines for TOP line announcement, calling out depressed price levels when arbitrary “deadlines” do not materialise, tempering price expectations on successful results..... and the list goes on...they then walk down the price and voila...the market has spoken!
If you are a real long and you buy into this crapola.....please sell because “ you don’t know nothin’ Jon Snow”!
Sleepers and pseudo longs need not reply....to the rest....hang in there!
We will get there, when we get there!
Can’t believe they keep on citing the OFFICIAL FIGURES FOR SHORT SHARES by FINRA....12m and change!
HELLLLLLOOOOOO? Why do they call it NAKED SHORTS........ it’s NOT OFFICIAL...... THEREFORE.....DOES NOT APPEAR IN THE OFFICIAL FIGURES!
Why haven’t they covered? They are doubling down because they expected LP to rollover and die!
She just didn’t do that, did she? So, what did they do? Discredit her and the management and any “sneak peeks” at the blended numbers as revealed by LL, they walk the pps down, indicating the “FACT” that Mr. Market was NOT IMPRESSED!
Any new shorting activity is just doubling down activity by the “old” shorts who cannot afford to show their hand or panic buy.....just whistling in the cemetery because if they start running.....Bigger and other “big dogs” will smell blood and these mongrels will be torn apart!
I believe that DI has been doing his job of spreading the Gospel and his investors are quietly supporting the pps and picking up any “walk down” shares thrown by the pack.
What is the pack’s current strategy?
Shake the tree and pick up shares from the “weak” hands but of late, this strategy has not been working, given the light daily volumes and most probably the bulk of these volumes originate from the pack “washing their own trades”.....no new shares to be had....slim pickings.....lol.....any real push ups by investors is met by more shorting.... volumes above 1m plus or so....! Digging a deeper hole by the shorts......DI and his investors are just toying with the shorts now because at any time, the company can reveal top line and voila.....pulling them by the short and curlies time!
Our day is coming and you will see more FUD from the “regulars” and new FUD from the “pseudo longs” who have been “sleepers” on this and other MBs.... they will be activated more and more....
Sojourner and other “observers” who have closely monitored the pps and volumes, you guys would have noticed the Bid /Ask activity, would a legitimate Seller sell 800 shares to the Bidder when the difference is $0.002....sale proceeds difference of $1.60? Walking down the price is still alive and kicking! You guys would also have noticed that they are getting “less aggressive” in their Low of the Day pushes, we invariably close near the HODs but still in the Red....objective achieved to show pps weakness for the day!
GLTALs!
What is he? third rate?
Thanks for the insight.
Thumbs up!
Ah......we are getting a bit slimy eh?
What did Extremist post?
“And yet LP's team is winning the war. Hahaha”
...and what was your reply......
“Really? At less than $0.34?”
So, what are you implying? They are winning the war by your “Really?” Or with that ambiguity, they are REALLY winning it but you are questioning that with a......? So.....your “Really?” Really means? Backdoor? Met many Slippery characters who play semantics when painted into a corner!
Hope your English innuendo arguments are better than your “pretend” to be a long “long winded essays”!
If you don’t think they are winning the war.........I mean, nothing else to see here.....should be moving along and not gawking and “rubber necking” this lost war!
They should have consulted you.
Harvard law degrees.....not worth the paper it’s printed on..... what are they teaching these days, surely not Law of the Jungle!!
LP should not have gotten on the wrong side of the law.......of the jungle!!
There is basically one law for the BPs and biggies and one for struggling biotechs who don’t play ball with the “powers that be” and Linda’s Powers don’t work on or can influence the SEC or the Wall St crowd. They can only catch the low hanging fruits like the Martha Stewards among retailers. Yeah, once in a while, the Shrekelis.
Thumbs up!
Absolutely right!
Thumbs up!
Agreed!
Thanks for your TA posts and comments!
Damned if you do, damned if you don’t!
What do you want?
Forward planning management or one that is behind “your curve”?
Very plausible scenario of turning “good news into bad”.....this is where DI of IR comes in......”your tax dollars at work”!
At the end of the day, with positive results and approval .. ...the Wolfpack will be toast!
Hi Reg2015,
My post was actually directed at the same song (like the nursery rhyme) that the naysayers keep on lamenting about R/S, toxic financing, bad management, etc....they are bankrupt of crapola and just bring out their old 45’s vinyls! That’s how old their negative points are!
I’m a patient long who will only add with any pps dips and will wait for the positive data that will be out soon!

.......here we go round the mulberry bush...the mulberry bush.....the mulberry bush....give it a break!
All blame go to the shorts and manipulators.... the worst kind of bottom feeders!
Custer’s last stand or whistling in the graveyard?
Whatever.....just bought more...!
Never thought they would try a stunt like this but they did!
Thanks for the cheap shares and I’ll keep on buying till these guys find how much diehards believe in this stock.
To da moon Alice!!
