Good point wantobe, the CEO left us hanging very a very long time. And by the way, what the heck is American Nano Silicon Technology? I've lost faith in these guys a long time ago , I'm just holding because I have no choice whatsoever.
I assume news is pending. They're keeping quiet for a reason. These guys used to put out PR constantly now all is quiet. You should e-mail stronghold for a response. It's getting boring and they're flushing out the traders. Just what we want.
Well thanks for the invite wantobe. Just thought I'd let you know I received an e-mail from the man himself, Mr. Steve Crane. I guess Greg forwarded to him after my endless hounding and phone calls. Looks like this: Mr. Crane mentioned that obviously he can't reveal to one shareholder something without everyone knowing so he is pretty quiet. But he proceeding in saying that he founded this company when he was 35 and he himself has more to lose than anyone since he is the largest shareholder by far and gets pain only dollar per year. All his compensation is stock I guess and from incentives based on gross profits of the company. Their attorney told them not to release anything as of yet but I think it's very soon. Listen, he's got more to lose than anyone. This company is their livelyhood. They're real and going to move. None of this is quoted , of course . If you want a response, you need to e-mail stronghold, because at the moment SGDS is at COHQ.
I personally think they're waiting on releases to flush out the hyperactive , impatient day-traders to reward the long term holders. Good luck Gentleman and ladies. Disclaimer "all my opinion of course, use due dilligence please"
I think mike can't handle the pain of losing. He's become bitter and needs to mature about his attitude toward money. The day is coming for this one 101. Sad part is, you know it to.
Yeah, tell me about it, it's really hard to get a hold of these guys now adays. I do call them once in a while but the only way were getting any info is through material events. I have over 10 mil shares. Been with them a long time. Please, if anyone from the company reads this STOP DILUTING. You're supposed to be creating value for us.
Call me crazy but I'm now up to over 10mil shares of this rocket. I really think their reputation is at stake if they dont make things happen. They are real, I call them and stronghold quite often.
Thanks for your insight. I'm averaging in about the same so one more year should show us something. Good luck.
How long does anyone plan on actually holding this stock. I wonder how long of a chance I should give them. Welcome all opinions
I'm going to add 10 mil more, i already have 3 mil shares, why not , i've been with these guys for this long and i know their planting their seeds to the big board some day.
Come on, 0.0003. Is that the best you can do. Good job.
Wow, talk about dilution. These guys have increased their outstanding shares from 162 million to over 900 million, check it out to confirm me but thats not a good way to enhance shareholder value as they constantly say they want to do. Guys , think about your shareholders for once because we're going to make or break this company
Way to go! What an embarrasment. Develop other companies, they can't even build their own. They should should seriously just do somethng else. It's become a complete joke. I'm having fun watching more zero's go on front of the price , yes. 0.00, 000.
0000000, 000000000000000000000
Hey WTBR , I've been off for a while. Still sitting on my 3mil waiting patiently. I look forward to your posts. Do you still call corphq. I call them usually once every two weeks to talk to greg and make sure they're still open , LOL. Everything looks good though. They stripped the expenses to the bone and what more could we expect. They made stronghold, and as long as SGDS does fine thats our key. We need those shares to be worth something. I just wish Mr. Crane would talk , step up and tell us about some new prospects in the pipeline. They way I look at it, we'll make the money back but will have to hold, let the impatient people sell and laugh or whatever. The time will come. The owners are now working on a 1 dollar salary and are working by incentive so the better they do with these portfolio comp., the bigger their bonus, the better for us. They're pretty confident.
Maybe we should just cheer the stock lower. Hopefully it will have the opposite effect since nothing else works. Come on, you can do it, drop. We should all sell then just plunge it to nothing.
I just love how this management puts out no news as the stock tanks. How embarrasing for such a so called well experienced company.
you're right , sgds is up again .what a disgrace
Cohq should be posting all the stronghold PR releases on their PR also, but they're NOT. Anything they do release is negative anyway, they want their stock down I believe. Congrats to the COHQ people who may be reading this, way to go. Rememer only 15 days left to reach the 21 cent target set last dec 15th. I'm holding forever just because I have no choice but to dream of the most amazing comeback in history. Otherwise, I'm out a ton a cash. More DILUTION! Not good for a so called shareholder friendly company. Can you do a class action suit on a pink sheet stock?
I think it's obvious we have a new company here. I called cohq the other day and I got the IR guy from stronghold. He really was enthusiastic and told me to watch for some exciting things happening over the next few months. The company is doing too well for cohq not to be combined. After all, they were made by cohq. I have to hold a minumum of a couple more months b/c this is where the biggest change will occur. I know some of you guys won't believe it, but check into this.
I would think that these guys are just going to combine with stronghold and form a bigger company instead of cohq just being a minority owner. They did a great job of incubating them but with this business model it takes so long to sell shares. So why not just join them . After all stronghold wants to aggressively aquire all these other companies. According to cohq, when I call they say they're still very actively involved w/ sgds. I think us shareholders are going to be converted to stronghold stock. They would be much better off making money as stronghold than just holding their stock. Steve Crane said something about a transaction w/ an unrelated company. That would be sgds. They're a security business not an incubator. This is now what I think is happenening. Read the release. After all, why did they just write off the giving card, the last remaing portfolio company. Welcome to the new stronghold, I think.
Yea, that material event is probably the earnings release greg told me is around nov. 15th. He never gives me much information. His responses to e-mails are usually one line long. Anyway, they have restricted shares of SGDS so he told me they cant sell them for probably around 2 years. This whole thing is very confusing. I thought they had to sell their shares to make money. I would like to talk to Steve Crane but apparently you can't get to him easily on the phone. After all, it's our money . They are voluntarily reporting so why doesn't he speak up. The PR well dried up, but I'm holding because at this point ,who cares i know im out a lot if I sold. WAKE UP COHQ!
How could a company go from having a news release just about every day to none in almost 2 months. Stronghold releases information constantly. It doesn't make sense. I might as well hold these shares to the very end because I'm already down so much that there's no point in selling now. I can't believe last year at this time a .21 cent target was put on this thing for 12 months and here we are, .0035 . I learned my lesson.
Have you seen the new stronghold website. It's very nice

About Stronghold Industries
these guys haven't put a good pr out in more than a month at least
well lets see, only 2 more months to hit the 12 month price target of 0.21 set by that one analyst. Think we'll hit that, doubt it.
I grabbed my 140000 today so soon I'll have as many shares as you. That was me at 0.006. I think aout this co. a lot and the way I figure it, their managment team really is very experienced and I think they have to much to lose.
I'm right here with u on that, i'm trying to add 179000 today, i have a bid at 0.0045, then i'm officialy done
That's it, I'm adding more tommorrow. I have to hit the 3 mil mark. I think this is it at this pps. First, stronghold is out of its quiet period so their news will be out soon, then giving card's on deck to go public very shortly and they're due for another analyst report at "buy".
What a kick in the a** today was, I don't know why I even watch sometimes. Get off the stink sheets already
apparently some people are utterly confused as to how this company makes their money.
Well. talked to Alan Silberberg, the former White House aid thats CorpHQ big executive. He told me that stronghold is almost out of its quiet period. They could then liquidate some of their position. This will keep them cash flow positive, I think. But he said after the quiet period , stronghold will have a lot more news and corp HQ has a really innovative co coming through shortly but will be annouced soon. So this Alan guy sounds a lot more enthusiastic. Face it they're a boring co, but great management and they know what they're doing , I think I'm just gonna stop watching
where's the volume?
did anyone notice 1st, that yahoo finance 5 day chart shows the buy at 0.08 so MR C, good catch. 2nd when sgt ventures, COHQ's 1 st portfolio company changed its name to stronghold, the share price also changed from 0.05 to .51 , something is definitely up
SGVN was at 0.05
I spoke to Greg D in another lengthy coversation again today. He persists that the livelyhood of all their executives is riding on this company, so much that the stock needs to go up. It felt like I was pushing the issue but as such a large shareholder, we need to know. Once again swears there's no dilution and I try to tell him some boards are starting to make some noise about the stock and there may be a lot of impatient shareholders. He's like "what boards". Its against their legalities to look at any such board
Thanks Mr. C , If you're right I'll take your recommeneded picks anytime
Mr. Copfer, where did you see this 0.08 at ? maybe the decimal was in the wrong position and supposed to be 0.008 but I hope not, I have faith in your're instinct
He's definetely getting the benefit of the doubt , dont you think "wantoberich" . Im holding my 3 million for the duration, at least 6-12 more months
This man has some excellent credentials and check out a sample of some of his picks of the past:
SZ Sizzler International 2.12 6/7/05 6.45 204
TASR Taser Int'l. 1.98 11/10/04 54.83 2,710
THLT TechLite, Inc. 0.45 1/5/05 0.65 44
TIDE Tidelands Oil & Gas 0.92 3/9/04 3.51 281
TIET Tie Technologies Inc. 0.14 2/7/2002 2.35 1578

Larry particularly likes emerging growth situations, many of which either have developed, or have gained control of emerging technologies. He has the ability to ferret them out and identify those that have great potential. His degrees in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and accounting help, as does a stint in charge of all electronic equipment aboard a ship in the U.S. Navy, experience as president, CEO, & CFO of high-tech companies, and as marketing manager of NYSE & Fortune 500 companies.

Taken from Larry Oakley's Wall Street corner:
Here's a company that, like WallStreetCorner.com, Inc., built its operation without borrowing any outside capital. Its management team is top notch. It has demonstrated that it has the skill required to rapidly increase the growth of its portfolio companies.
COHQ has not yet been discovered by the investing public. As its success becomes known, its share price should begin to reflect both that success & some of its growth potential.
I intend to continue my investigation of this undervalued situation, & based on my initial view, my opinion is that its price could be as high as $0.24 within the next 18 months.
Since it closed today at $0.023, that represents a gain of about 943% -- I have seldom felt a situation would have so large a move within less than two years.
