What? Nothing in your reply makes any sense as to my response. Nothing about 1 to 10000, and nothin about uplisting to 1k a share. I read your reply quite a few times to give you the benefit of a doubt, but nope. Couldn't find it.
Lot of frustrated kiddies out there, so I get it.. and the extended effort is always great to see.
This taking place so close to the infrastructure bill being signed, and the possibility of grant funding provided to ASTI, if confirmed, would make these moves very calculated. IF grant funding may be in place, the insider investors can simply sell off their "loan shares" recently provided (hedged to keep ASTI funded if the bill wasnt signed) to simply clean the books. and the R/S to clean up share structure for uplisting.
Super speculative, and please dont make moves on behalf of my statements.
You know, i do agree. the terms of the split may be different but 1:1000 is the example you used here. referencing the existing investors taking the same hit, yea.. they will still have majority share, and still control the voting. but, they are losing just as much as the next guy. (more in actual dollars) but they see the long-term, or else they wouldnt be playing the game.
We've all been talking the split for a year, or longer. Not new. and the fact that they want to uplist has been speculatory (but highly probable). That intention is the best news that came out of it.
for the 1:1000, the goal of $1, now turns to $1,000 on nasdaq for the same buck. tough, but mergers and partnerships in todays age in tech sector does make it achievable.
The company turn around had been going for almost a year now, and the final pieces are coming together to finally package for Nasdaq listing. Always good to be onboard before the good news breaks. i'll be holding my bag. (still in the green though)
GLTA!
Interesting concept:
The vehicle can typically travel up to 600 kilometers (373 miles) on its 60-kWh battery when fully charged, even at night and when it is cloudy. On a day when the sun is shining throughout, its range increases by an extra 130 kilometers (81 miles). The team drove approximately 300 kilometers (186 miles) between each destination, at a top speed of 120 kilometers (75 miles) per hour.
Is there our Lucy? Jupiter mission - Oct16th?

Is great news actually! Misleading headline (ofcourse)
The price is low now, just as everyone who originally loaded last October when this stock just started it's move to the upside, and eventually to .09 in Feb. This is important to reference becuase the 1yr mark we get quite a nice tax break vs trading this thing on the daily. The OGs should look forward to this benefit, and might I say are still green in retrospect to those reflected investments. Company has had nothing but great news since then, everything from becoming current, to further investment and contracts. Other than managing SP, the business is showing great resilience. I am confident the SP will eventually catch up to the performance of the business, to reflect the physical gains it's been accomplishing. Just as equity laggards in certain sectors tends to balance performance through a cycle, it feels just a matter of time in this case.
Yea, and ichiban that reentered at .04 after working an agreement to settle past liabilities with ascent, they must be really feeling it. Doubled down.
It still remains, that nothing bad has essentially taken place at this company since late 2020. It's been positive, with the new owner and investors, with getting current on financials that look better and better. The "opportunity" hasn't changed, at all.
This really comes down to communication from Acsent Solar. Any active public company continually updates their share holders, and potential shareholders. News creates speculation, which drives investment. When public companies go quiet weeks on end, or over a month.. it creates doubt, and opens up the door for devaluing. Stock price is a reflection of perceived value, as it doesnt always follow fundamentals (especially in the OTC). Sharing activities of the company through news/press release is common practice, and a simple yet effective way to keep speculation and investment activity brewing. We've seen time and time again, when they go quiet, this is the result.
Weve been trading sideways for so long, with all that has continued to happen on the positive side... its just a matter of time for things to come together.
However, i do forecast many selling on the next big jump to get out of long positions... but i suspect that will also be the long run they wish they stayed in and been holding out for... hahaha. The mental sentiment is easy to read, and will be capitalized on.
"Silly to think we saw a higher price with a stop sign, horrible filings and a little bit of NASA news(not even a sale) than being current with one of the largest orders in the companies history and more recent balanced sheet. Back asswards hahaha. Stock market is a strange place but we'll get there."
Absolutely right..
I agree... they continue to push to become as current as possible, for a reason. The effort, the hiring, the investments.. its all going to produce fruit imo. Just a matter of when.
In hindsight, there were many other plays after the Feb high that would have been nice to use the funds for, considering the price action of today with ASTI. However, the belief in where the company is going is only getting stronger with the validation from financials, and additional news relating to other tech articles where Ascent is being used, amongst other things (potential funding/grants, etc)
This one really feels good.
Regarding the PPS being driven down, here is a speculative idea perhaps. If the PPS is at a low point if they "buyback shares and retire them" (if they choose to) to lower the OS, it wouldnt cost Ascent Solar as much per share to do so, and considerably increase the existing market value of the company at the same time. PPS would jump in a major way, generating the investment revenue, offsetting the cost it took to deploy that strategy. Essentially it would wash, and they would sit entirely on offense with no lingering dead fruit from the past.
Im sure there many other variables that would be required to do this, but to me, trying to understand the PPS action with the recent news.. its where my mind leads.
*Speculative Idea Only
Friday/Mondays are always higher probability plays for action. We'll see what happens..
No communication from the company. Silence. People are bored, and looking for excitement elsewhere. However, when it happens, it happens.. and you're either in it or you're not. Same goes for any stock.
Whoever snagged more shares below .02, good for you. Well prepared and ready... i totally missed it. Cheers!
The current environment really comes down to communication. We understand where the company is in the process, we see the trajectory, we know there is a billionaire backing the company now... But, there has been little communication from the ASTI, and after March.. other than another string of Q filings... they are absent, quiet.. silence. It deflates optimism. Shorts breed in that environment.. and without speculative aggregate to chew on, there is nothing to influence buying pressure. If there is no buying pressure, the shorts aren't concerned about getting pushed out of their positions.. they are safe.
With the new billionaire heavily involved Q4-current, which isnt reflected in the past Q's (showing no revenue and delinquent), people are simply funneling money (investing) in the future expectation that the billionaire, will steer the company (soon to be current) to brighter days ahead. Investing in the future of the company, not past performance.
I have... a few times, which he did reply kindly. However, the last two which were over the past 3 weeks.. he did not. I requested a new IR contact, if he was no longer the point person for the role.. and again no reply. (silence)
I would have to believe he's received a number of emails from various investors inwhich he is unable to divulge anything or is playing caution to the wind and not saying anything.. as it may not be relevant anymore if someone is acquiring or something else related is going on that puts current known events out of play.
Only speculation until its revealed.
I was going to say the same thing this morning.. They have to know we're here, and have to show some respect for their followers. Give us some bread... lol
I think so, yea.. however, the Q1 would also have to be supplied by then too.. or they would drop back. Given the timing between the last few Q's, its approx 3 weeks, except for this 10k which is pushing 4-5 weeks. We are starting to squeeze that 3week time frame into June release of Q1, if it takes that long off the 10K release date. So, any day now (which we've said for two weeks) something has to give.. its time for results.
I believe if the 2020 10K filing isnt supplied by deadline for Q2 2021, then it would require the Q1 2021 filing to be supplied also, to be current. Once they drop 2 filings behind they get the delinquent stop sign. I could be wrong...
The fact that they've pushed this hard so quickly to get as far up-to-date as possible, is super positive.. its just a matter of time. We are all excruciatingly waiting patiently for them to come around on this important filing. The MMs are playing ping pong to keep active shares in play for any possible buyers but nobody is buying, becuase the company is failing to keep anyone entertained with business activity through this waiting period. The sellers have sold imo.. its just the MMs trading back and forth. Once we get some action, and buying volume.. pps will naturally increase
Hasnt been like this since they got off the pot. Putting us all to sleep now.. doesnt change my position, but it sure shows how much they need a good PR person.
Right, we all have the ability to see the bigger picture long term. Holding and loading are justifiable, imo. ASTI management dragging this out is absolutely depressing. Nothing negative has happened since the big run up, interms of news or filings.. so there is no justifiable reason to change the outlook, imo. Its just management dragging their heels on this very important filing... if it gets any longer, they're going to push into needing even another filing before getting current. lol, now that would be a negative.. Tomorrow or Monday seem like advantages days to release it, however, they dont seem to be the advantageous type, from recent history... Timing doesnt seem to be their forte. We'll find out soon enough.
Ive been thinking about a full speculation possibility, about acquisition. However, Bernd is the variable that i dont think would want to go that direction.. but perhaps. In the case of, example.. First Solar. If they bought ASTI for the patents, to take their brand from primarily roof solar revenue, and acquired ASTI for the space sector and premium outlets.. they could essentially expand their business capabilities and network overnight. And they have the resources to act quickly.. they could do a 1000:1 RS on ASTI stock, and offer current ASTI share holders First Solar stock price at the new ASTI RS share count, for a swap. IT would dilute First Solar a bit, but increase their overall Market Cap considerably. And they would only take purchased shares, and write off the excess, or buyback those shares maybe, but highly doubtful. I would take a $72 per share price on 1:1000 right now, honestly.
Super speculatory... but waiting for management to act has given time to consider possibilities. haha
Could be.. or also may be one billionaire calling out the other, for brand positioning. If things are about to heat up in the solar market, and Bernd is confident in whats about to take place.. he may start throwing stones to elevate brand perception, and discredit competitors in a number of tactics.
Another day of twittling thumbs for many, waiting on management to come around with filings.
Do todo todo.. yaaaae
Just snagged some more.. any day now filings or news. imo its a sure win to push above these levels when the time comes, easy opportunity.
Bagged more shares at .0255, 1min before close.. This month expects to be epic!
Just threw down for some more.. its a waiting game (has been for a while, and is sufficiently boring now) but.. might as well load deep and take advantage of the inevitable
The idea for the 10K "value" (or pop, whatever it ends up being), is to become current, and to get to a stage where its "on paper" in a much better financial position. Q4 when Bernd (the billionaire) made his investment, and the restructuring will add value to the overall perception of future intent for the company. Right now, without a baseline Q to validate the expectation, its all speculation based on the news sited in Q4 (which is when the stock started taking off).
And becoming current, will naturally open the stock up to a much larger pool of investors (removing the stop sign) allowing additional trading platforms and brokerages to invest, increasing natural volume.. which is the underlying engine for the bottom line stock growth.
Absolutely, i do feel the 10K/Q4 is going to show the restructuring costs, new Bernd investment and additional revenue we dont know about. 2021 Q1 will be first phase of Bernd's involvement, tubesolar, and only upside as things start to expand. But, going back to the 10k/Q4, will be referencing on paper what news broke at that time when everyone started getting involved. It will be good to see, and a great talking point as any speculation on what happened will be put on paper. And ofcourse, they would go current, and open up investment opportunities to a much wider network of investors. All good things
It could yea, and Monday news break updating to current... would be fantastic. I guess we'll see if they have the same technical strategy. Going into a new month current, timing right now would be perfect given the extended duration of any company specific news. The previous news break was a 3rd party reference to blanket funding by the administration for green energy. Hoping they have some real aggregate to chew through this time..
Absolutely, including me... however it doesnt change my position on the company as a whole. But, they do need some help in various areas to streamline communication and timeliness for the market and investors. While staying business focused is great, they need an external conduit to keep investment opportunities on the table. Their current neglect is only hurting themselves, imo. (not to say they havent made strides in recent months.. but execution, communication, and timeliness are critical to pps performance)
Yea, hoping today or tomorrow. Ideally they should release it, and at the same time submit for being current with news of their "current Status" Monday morning. That would be a strong entry into May..
Many of us are waiting till they're current, thats when things start escalating. All this interim noise is just fluff. Is what it is.. once they are current, and the real investors start showing up in the financials (Bernd, TubeSolar, etc), things will naturally look better, and make more sense.
Bernd is one of the reasons im in this long-term. Ive been involved in this stock since 2017, ive seen the crash. This time is different, everything smells right.. however, their failed ability to sustain communication with investors on a regular basis is disheartening, and doesnt align with the values of strong headed business organizations. If they want to be recognized as a global supplier, or national for that matter.. They need to start acting and operating like one.
The lack of basic investor updates with news is whats giving shorts the ability to manipulate confidently. They've got the share power to dump as needed, without the buying volume from speculative moves. Management needs to provide consistent updates.. speculation or actual progress, doesnt matter. Keeping investors blind is unhealthy, and a topic to address at any upcoming investor meeting. Whoever holds the position needs a review..
Its been almost a month since news was provided on any subject matter at all, which has killed the volume. News creates interest, which promotes speculation or calculated investment moves, and ultimately volume through trading. When a company has no news (no additional value or insight on its progress) to share atleast on a biweekly basis at most, it creates doubt to potential new investors. While long term this is a naturally aspiring company in a field that is just in its infancy.. They do seem very rookie at keeping the market eyes and attention on their brand.
We are right on the verge of many catalysts for this company, including the next few filings.. so i would suspect a good leg up in the short-term, however, it does surprise me how little they care about "brand perception". Right now, its as important as ever to have consistent news flowing and showing activity on a weekly basis. Even if its how Bernd takes his coffee or tea.. nobody cares, but its better than being absent and mindless.
GTLA!
We will breakout if the 10k is released during trading hours. Otherwise, it will have time to sit and fizzle afterhours, creating a possible gap the following trading day.
