hey guys I just started my first leg of a half-year long trip through Europe and Africa. Just checking in on BAQG, and I have to say I'm a bit surprised this company has gone so unnoticed.
Let's get some volume in here and see much higher prices in anticipation of the selling out of the second printing of the FDR.
I wonder if the sellers realize that since this volume is so low, if you put a sell order in at less than the ASK, your limit price becomes the stock's new ASK.
So if whoever has an order in to sell at $0.53, changed it to $0.55, the new ASK would be $0.55 instead of $0.53.
Either way, we need volume!!!
We definitely need recognition. Please spread awareness!
I see a potential to spike up to around $0.07 before resettling at $0.05-0.06.
These orders offer a very real possibility that they might be operating in the green if they play their cards right. This is huge.
BAQG
Proven ability to make profits, very low O/S and even tinier float. They have a new $160,000 website that might become the next Ebay for artwork and they also have a subsidiary, YNOT EDUK8 that has completely sold out it's last book for a net company profit.
New things happening every few weeks, PR today about a new book.
Do your DD!!!
I might make some suggestions to people today to have a look at BAQG. We also had another great PR today that I almost missed because the headline was so similar to the last one:
Benacquista Galleries Inc Signs Publishing Agreement
July 18, 2006 9:16 AM ET
SAN DIEGO, July 18, 2006 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Benacquista Galleries, Inc. (BAQG) announced today signing an agreement with Benacquista Director and Ynot Education, Inc. President, Don Tolman to publish his new book titled "The 7 Principles of Health."

"The 7 Principles of Health is a book about a lifestyle that I have been living and teaching my entire life.

The 7 Principles will go into depth on how to change their lives and become healthier and more productive in all aspects of their lives. This book will make a great companion to The Farmacist Desk Reference (FDR)," stated Tolman.

Again, I don't think looking at the chart will do you much good with this company.
We see 30% price fluctuations on less than 10 standard-sized trades with BAQG. In the time it takes for the company to trade enough shares to start conforming to any chart patterns, there will have been 3 PRs and the rules would have changed.
Anyway, what we need is volume. It's already apparent that if we accelerated what is already happening we would continue to see the base rise and rise until it is way over a dollar.
IFDG had a HUGE deal announced today and judging by the volume not too many people have it on their radars.
Do your DD!
If you're looking for a good company to radar and research, look into BAQG. Not very many people know about it right now and it's profitable already!
Very well said.
It is an important point that BAQG's business was primarily established BEFORE going public. It shows that this company and it's subsidiaries were operating independently before shareholders provided additional funding.
No, I wouldn't worry about the buyback. My issue was that the amount of shares quoted in the buyback PR was prefaced by "up to", which means they could potentially have just stopped at 100 shares bought back.
I don't really think this is the case either, because if these guys start making some really serious cash with the FDR and other publications/art programs as is likely, they'll be in a much better position owning as much as the company as they can.
This might mean an extended buyback program from the float or a buyout. We'll have to see just how successful these next few quarters are.
I also think it would be beneficial to shareholders if the Tolman cartoon were removed altogether.
That it is a cartoon makes the promotion look almost chincy. Regardless of how true the things Tolman is saying are, I can imagine potential buyers may be incredulous if the "Walnuts as brain medicine, kidney beans as kidney medicine..." was the first thing presented to them before they had established that Tolman is, in fact, credible.
But that may only make the difference between completely selling out the next FDR in 7 days instead of 10.
There is a lot of cheerleading but then again there aren't a lot of closet skeletons either.
I have a lot of stocks and I don't cheerlead any of the other ones simply because I think this one is in the best position right now.
I would criticize that I think the wording of the buyback announcement allows them to only buy back a handful and then stop once the PR effect has worn off.
I'd also criticize the use of several made-up words on the YNOT EDUK8 website. It made me wince to hear "historocity" on the cartoon clip, and see something like "vocabularium" used to mean vocabulary.
I also doubt there is a short position simply because stocks with low float like this have amplified market static. It makes it so that 30% swings are just "noise".
Not to mention that it's ridiculous that it's not above $1 right now with the absurdly small O/S.
It means that there are a lot of smart investors. We're dealing with a company that not only has promised profits, but has produced them and is expanding their operations that made them money.
I don't have a huge position in AURC any longer but I'd have to say hold.
Since the drift has been during absence of PR's, and the situation with the company hasn't changed as far as we know-- I'd say a positive PR should put this to the mid-20's and settle in the low 20's.
In this situation, as we lose share price, we automatically gain a better position for growth. It kind of sucks but if I didn't have a position here, AURC would be looking a lot better right now.
I haven't been able to open IHUB on my computer in a little while for whatever reason.
As I was saying before, this thing drifts down and spikes up quickly on very low volume. It only took 2-3 sells to get down here so it should only take 2-3 buys to get back up.
It's a bit nerve-wrecking but also allows for excellent opportunities. I had my trigger set at $0.70 and bought a little more today.
I don't know how much they promote investing directly into BAQG on their tours, but it might be beneficial for everyone if they were to put a "For opportunies for direct investment into Benacquista Galleries..." on all their publications.
I suspect we'll see around $1.50 once they announce that they smashed through their second FDR printing--unless they print a lot more than we think they will. I also suspect that we'll go much higher when the money numbers are published.
Am I correct to assume that they have been taking pre-orders for the FDR? It would be nice to see financial results in the next quarter report instead of the 4th quarter one.
sesquipedalian-ism
121,745
That's the number of visitors so far to the FDR link on the new website. I hope there isn't anybody out there wondering if the new edition won't sell out as fast as the previous one.
LACO-- where is it posted that they are working on a diet? I couldn't seem to find it but then again I didn't look too hard.
I hope they PR the diet soon! That's amazing that they are developing a diet. At this O/S and this float it shouldn't be long before people are paying $3+ to get a piece of this next Atkins/Art-Ebay.
At least we're seeing the precious metal prices rising. This is good both for AURC and for my silver bars I'm selling on Ebay.
;)
$100,000 is a decent chunk of money for something we weren't even expecting! Wow!
Oh man the more I think about this company's position the better I feel about my position with them.
I can't wait for the results of their tour.
I'll bring my spoon to bail with the hopes that once the water is emptied there will be lobsters left beached in the boat.
I'm your 30k buyer who put the $0.032 up for the close. Not a ton of shares, but after watching this for awhile it looks like a steal at this PPS considering it always rebounds back up.
Now do me a favor and buy/radar BAQG for me cause I need help there.
BTW, when the eff are these guys going to give an update??!!
I have to say I wouldn't even bother with looking at the chart for this one. Judging by the low volume and solidness of the gameplan, good or bad I don't think the chart will tell you much useful information.
Either way, we're all in for some very promising gains.
Just my opinion.
hahaha nah I'm just kidding.
Not seeing too much volume today, must be a slow day.
when i say correcting i mean having it go to the PPS it would have been at if people didn't think this company had called it quits during its long period of no updates.
It seemed to me that it drifted down because its very existence was suspect, and now that they came out with a groundbreaking update i think we should see it "correct" to a much higher value.
I seriously think this could correct upward big time, but I bought in at $0.067 so what do I know.
PVNC
First PR in almost a year and it's fantastic!
Do your DD and get on it!
PVNC
I feel as if fellow BAQG holders might appreciate PVNC also. It just made its first announcement in almost a year and it looks like their are doing some big and potentially profitable acquisitions.
It has been drifting down ever since their year high of $0.13. It is going for about $0.07 right now.
But whatever you do, don't sell your BAQG do join in! PVNC does not have as much value to it!
This is probably not the kind of company you guys normally invest in, but you might want to check out GTRC (Guitar Center).
The market has murdered it today and based on their year over year increasing profits, they are extremely undervalued right now.
I think it is undervalued because the older investing community doesn't understand the link between the rise of Myspace and the rise of teenage-ish kids who are joining bands as a result. This will mean that their music products will continue to have year over year profit increases more likely than not.
You're looking at a quick 4-6%, not much but with very little risk.
Well, I hate to say it but it looks like Isreal is attacking Palestine now.
I can't say I expect either oil or NDOL to go down as a result. (Can you say $75-76 a barrel oil tomorrow?)
It's a terrible thing to benefit from but it's true.
achieve
no offense but they have responded to most of those questions already.
What do you mean by "How do they plan to finance Magma field since they have no cash on hands."?
I thought that was pretty clear.
Anybody know why they are walking the ASK down when the only volume we are seeing is from buys?
All effectively doubling NDOLs outlook. Wow, I'm back in for the first time since $0.55

Tons of buys today, suspiciously low BIDS on huge spreads, and the ASK is actually brought down on positive volume followed by no volume.
I guess they want to get more shares so they can bank on their huge spreads. Hopefully nobody will take their bait and we hold $0.90 for our close.
