Morning, jail bate.
Even though I've held shares of this stock for a little while, I haven't posted on this board, not much of a talker I guess. However, I have noticed that whatever stock I own the banter is always the same on the boards when the pps isn't running like people think it should. I think a lot of this can be attributed to the paragraph below that I posted on another board:
I think what we're seeing right now is the result of what happens when people buy a stock without first having a strategy, whether it be a trading or investing strategy. If you're in it for a trade, then set exit points and stick with them. If you're investing, then set a time line that you will hold the stock. I also think we're seeing some traders who are now trying to convince themselves that they have become investors, but lack the patients to do so. You need to have a game plan before buying, not make it up as you go along. I normally take an investment strategy with the intent to hold for at least a year and then reevaluate my position after that. I don't know to many stocks that don't have some sort of roller-coaster action to them, especially pennies. Time itself usually smoothes out the highs and lows, unless the stock turns out to be a straight up scam. You're always going to have missed time lines, things the company says they're going to do that don't pan out, things that happen to the company beyond their control, as well as unexpected positive surprises. Hence, the roller-coaster action. I also believe some people invested way more money than they should have and exceeded their comfort level, which speaks for itself. Greed causes us to make irrational decisions more often than not.
I've got 24 different penny stocks on my screen that I watch, only 1 of them is green today. Go figure. LOL
Oh look, they want you to chase! LOL
You may be right, the flippers will need to reload.
The other day at the end of one of my posts I stated that I hadn't gone back to read the board during the late august/early september time frame, but I was sure the sky was falling back then too. Last night I went back and read some of those posts, I wasn't disappointed. Not to my surprise I seen lots of posts about dilution, fluff PR's, gagged TA, no government contract listing, abnormal trading volume, no AF's..............well, you get the point. Seems history does repeat itself, nothing new, and apparently nothing learned.
Agreed. If you look at pink sheets it took around 45 days from the end of the 1H until the UAF's came out, don't see why it would be any different this time.
drvento,
I agree whole heartedly with your sentiment. I think what we're seeing right now is the result of what happens when people buy a stock without first having a strategy, whether it be a trading or investing strategy. If you're in it for a trade, then set exit points and stick with them. If you're investing, then set a time line that you will hold the stock. I also think we're seeing some traders who are now trying to convince themselves that they have become investors, but lack the patients to do so. You need to have a game plan before buying, not make it up as you go along. I normally take an investment strategy with the intent to hold for at least a year and then reevaluate my position after that. I don't know to many stocks that don't have some sort of roller-coaster action to them, especially pennies. Time itself usually smoothes out the highs and lows, unless the stock turns out to be a straight out scam. You're always going to have missed time lines, things the company says they're going to do that don't pan out, things that happen to the company beyond their control, as well as unexpected positive surprises. Hence, the roller-coaster action. Although I haven't gone back and read the board during last September's time frame, I'm sure the sky was falling as the stock descended to half a cent. I also believe some people invested way more money than they should have and exceeded their comfort level, which speaks for itself. Greed causes us to make irrational decisions more often than not.
In post 3276 you infer, like it's a known fact, that CKYS is diluting while saying their doing a buyback. I think chart indicators are more accurate than your inferences. Okay, I'm done for the day. Everyone have a good weekend.
I guess different people have different investment strategies, again I only used the word hypocrite once and it was appropriate.
I don't condone anyone lying.
I think you should reread my post. I said I invest on what information IS available, not what SOMEONE SAYS is available.
I wasn't aware investing was like going to a horse race and we made bets. I invest (or not) based on the available information, no matter how much or how little it is. I suggest everyone else do the same.
Who I email and what I email them about is pretty much my business. I do think JP has an ass as a TA and have passed a message along to him suggesting he get another one.
YES
I don't think I was speaking about a bottom, I was speaking about dilution. And I've only ever mentioned about one person being hypocritical, and I was very SLOW to do it.
GZFX - I'll be honest with you, I've held a lot of stocks already and I never once called a TA to find out the current share structure. And you know what, I've done pretty well. I've been in stocks when they've started diluting and there's absolutely no doubt in your mind when that starts to happen, if your smart enough to read the indicators. I'm sure you have a good feeling of what it's like as well being in GZFX. Enough said, lets move on friend.
CKYS/GZFX - I suppose you're right, as long as the transfer agent tells you they're diluting the stock into oblivian, then it's okay to hold the stock. There's one fact I know for sure, indicators have no opinion and they don't speculate, they show the truth.
I notice there's constant accusations here as to CKYS being diluted, yet some here seem content to sit in a stock which is being diluted into oblivian, GZFX. Yet you never here a harsh word about that stock from these people either on that board or this one, as a matter of fact someone here even went to jail for trying to PUMP that board up the list. Hypocrisy seems to have no bounds here.
It seems to me some may have a problem reading the indicators on a chart, so let me help you out. If you want to see exactly what DILUTION looks like, pull up a 6 month chart on GZFX and look at the acc/dist and CMF..... THAT is what dilution looks like. Now look at CKYS over the same period. Wow! Those indicators are moving in the opposite direction as opposed to the stock with proven dilution, what's that mean? I think after some people here got their a$$ handed to them by GZFX, SLJB and others, they jumped into CKYS to make some quick money and got their a$$ handed to them again. So, they sold CKYS for a loss and are now taking their frustrations for GZFX and others out on CKYS by proxy, after all, they don't want to rant and rave about the stocks they still own. JMHO of course.
jking,
I don't think you understand, JP done his part to get on the list, now it's up to the government to put it on.
jking,
I've worked for the Fed. government for the last 14 years and the answer to your question is, they're notoriously SLOW. Also, it's not much harder to buy something that's not on the GSA list, you just have to fill out a special purchase order instead of a regular purchase order. The requirements are that if you want to purchase something and someone on the GSA list has it, then you MUST purchase it off the list. If no one on the list has what you need then you're basically free to purchase it from whomever you want.
I'm fairly certain this stock isn't unique, in that the P/E will be determined by the market, not a bunch of half-a$$ed speculators.
Those people obviously have a hard time understanding a distribution/accumulation chart!
Welcome Iamadog, I'm sure you'll be dealt a better hand of cards here.

A little while ago as I was getting dressed to go outdoors I was reminded of the power of "branding", which JP is big on and I think gets overlooked here quite a bit. A few years ago I seen a commercial on T.V. for UnderArmour, which caught my interest because I do quite a bit of hunting and fishing in cold weather. I went to there website and about fell off my chair when I seen how much it was for a set of UnderArmour underwear. My first thought was, these dudes won't be around long. It wasn't until I heard they were going public that I really done some DD on their product, which again made me think these guys were going to get killed. First, I noticed that their clothing material wasn't patented. Second, I noticed Nike had a similar product and it wasn't long until Cabelas and Walmart were pumping out much cheaper versions of the same stuff. Fact of the matter is, they're still around and doing very well because of their branding and advertising. Do they have the best product for the money? I don't know, but they convinced me and an a$$ load of others that they did and I have no complaints about their clothing. As I always say, something is worth exactly what you are willing to pay for it, no more, no less.
Sandvet,
It appears as though IESV will survive the Cornell death spiral, as well as OEGY.
You know....when a stock is priced to perfection, it's expected that the CEO and company should perform flawlessly and everything should be spelled out. This stock is priced no where near perfection, so you get what you pay for. JMHO
Harbs,
No apology needed here, bud.
Harbs,
I've had IR people in other companies tell me when press releases were coming out, i.e. next week, etc., by law they just couldn't tell me what was in them. As far as the fins., I think if they gave you the details of them then it would be an SEC violation.
Upbeat,
I want you to know that I do everything I can to support your position in Diageo, some weeks I blow through two bottles of Johnny Walker Green. Just doing my part. LOL
You are correct, there are now 3 mags, I forgot about America's 1st Freedom which was recently added. Not real sure who you're addressing the rest of your post to. If someone else brought up the issue you're addressing in the second half of your post, attach it to their post and not mine, makes me look like I implied something that I didn't. Thank you.
Yeah it's monthly. The other mag. is the American Hunter, my friend gets that one, both mags pretty much contain the same ads.
Ice,
I've looked through my Jan. issue of American Rifleman and there are no adds for the Biovault.
I'm home now. There's plenty of time to sleep after you die. What I found and sort of already knew from how things work at our place is that agencies have up to a year to report their purchases, although I'm still not convinced that we'll ever see CK listed as a contractor. I also learned that CK themselves could sell FIPS equipment to the government without a cert. as long as they were ACTIVELY SEEKING certification. What I found that surprised me the most which isn't really on topic but sort of is, when I was looking at the USGSA list of all government vendors, Winchester wasn't there. Last spring I watched them bring pallet loads of Winchester ammo into our armory. Strange.
Markets are NOT open tomorrow.
It's just my guess, but I'm thinking he was being sarcastic.
Bottom line, I need the name of that contract manufacturing facility in San Jose, CA. because that's who's name is probably on the order since it's shipped directly from them. And yes, I did email the company about this yesterday.
What I posted in 2043 IS a fact, I didn't just pull it out of my a$$. It's on the same link that Ice quoted from.
Re-evaluation doesn't mean re-certification does it? I guess we could probably pick and choose and quibble over this forever. Can I please have a moment to see if I can access the government PO database?
