Yup, Eli's even made a illustrated graph of it.
I will never forget the Tree YOYO where you were near last the first day, the lead the 2nd day, then near the bottom day 3.
26th place after round 3 and I win? wow_happened. That has got to be like a hole in one on a par 4. I watched the last 2 hours and had no idea I was in contention. I did not see this til this morning. More fun to win from behind than have the lead after round 3 like I did another one this year, then finished 2nd. I guess I used up all my good luck for a few years now. You are overdue Tree, you are next to get lucky.
jbog, so many large mammals that only eat plants can live as long as us humans, w/o GMO's cultured food, etc. An article below, is true says men live 10 years longer on a vegetarian diet than meat eaters and women 6 years longer. It does not take much imagine that vegetarian's probably do other good things associated with living longer, such as no smoking, alcohol, drugs, exercise and weight control. Animals we eat consume a lot more grains than we do to grow up. So, I am making a case to quit eating meat. IMO, meat replacements with added whatever's' is more about who controls the food system, than our health.
Can eating a vegetarian diet really help you live longer?

Key negative: insiders are cashing out now that the post-SPAC lockup period has expired

Thanks for the follow-up post on MLEC. For investors, there are two big financial problems and (IMO) one business-model problem.
The financial problems are: 1) the company is currently being funded via a $50M ATM (https://finance.yahoo.com/news/moolec-science-secures-50-million-025500400.html ); and 2) insiders are cashing out now that the post-SPAC lockup period has expired (https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1937737/000121390023057495/ea181693-424b3_moolecsci.htm ).
The business-model problem is as I posted in #msg-168998634.
p.s. MLEC’s corporate slide deck (which was used for promoting the SPAC merger) is at: https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1825437/000121390022067259/ea167761-425_lightjumpacq.htm .
LOL, I had forgotten I had posted on it previously. My fear is that with the plant based burger dudes, Impossible and BYND failing miserably that not many will invest in this offshoot.
Nice info about the cashing out.
I am waiting on the little pill coming out that the Star Trek crew ate for a meal.
I have not bought yet. Two days ago I was going to buy it was falling a the time, so held back. I feel the meatless meat failure with Impossible and BYND that this Moo Poo stuff might be a harder sell? And speculators less likely to put it up?
My initial post I mentioned we don't need meat. Many plants have a lot of protein. My problem is grains, being I am type 2 diabetic. Other fruit and veggies have a lot of protein/

Dew , you understand the science much better than I do. It makes sense to me that man does not need to eat meat to survive. Some of the biggest mammals don't eat meat, Elephants, Hippos, Rinos, Bison, and Sperm Whales to name a few. If Moolec can enhance other foods like soy, peas, tomatoes, apples, etc that have already been improved with just cross breeding, who knows.

Texas Must Upgrade Its Energy Grid To Accommodate New Renewable Power
https://oilprice.com/Latest-Energy-News/World-News/Texas-Must-Upgrade-Its-Energy-Grid-To-Accommodate-New-Renewable-Power.html
Texas needs upgrades to its electricity transmission grid to accommodate a soaring share of renewable energy generation, otherwise the state risks surging shares of curtailments of wind and solar power generation by 2035, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) said this week.
Texas ranks first in the United States in terms of installed wind energy capacity and second in solar capacity and storage. Wind energy alone produces 21% of all electricity in the state, according to the American Clean Power Association.
Per EIA’s estimates, the combined wind and solar generating capacity in Texas’s power market is set to double by 2035, fueling a growing renewable share of total generation.
But without grid upgrades, curtailments of wind and solar generation will also soar, the administration said in a recent report discussing the transmission limits on renewables growth in Texas.
Since grid operators must maintain a continuous balance between supply and demand to assure power system reliability, in case more wind and solar power is available for production than the grid can use, grid operators have to curtail wind and solar generation to keep the grid balanced.
Last year, the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) curtailed 5% of its total available wind generation and 9% of total available utility-scale solar generation. If grid upgrades are not made, those curtailments could surge to 13% of total available wind generation, and 19% of solar generation by 2035, the EIA said.
ERCOT currently has the most renewable generation in the country due to significant wind resources and focused investment in the electric transmission system, the administration said in its analysis.
“Without expanding ERCOT’s electrical transmission network and storage capacity, congestion and curtailments will rise,” the EIA said, adding that the strong projected growth in renewable energy in ERCOT over the next decade could be constrained by transmission capacity.
GFP, With LAND and DBA, I was trying a trading system and it was not working like I thought, only lost a couple hundred, but was just toying. I could see the light. All I got is RIBT, waiting for the final dispersal which I hope happens in early August. Guessing they are waiting for the Q2 financials.
Santefe2 is not one to debate. He is a closed minded liberal. Dew had a great active poster there, OakesCS, Charley Oakes. He is a scientist for a major oil company and really knows his stuff. He got so ticked at Santefe that he quit posting a couple of years ago. I was a roofing and siding contractor for 30 years, retired in 2008. Santefe was talking up solar panels on roofs and I could not tell him the costs and hassle of doing a second roof or even roof repair with solar panels already on the the roof.
1. To do a 2nd roof, you got to take the panels down and reinstall them to do the roof. So, double the original labor of the original solar install. If the installer would not do it, no contractor with 10% of a brain would want anything to do with the job.
2. Roof leak" maybe a simple job, but remove panels to get at it? A $200 repair might need the solar company to remove and reinstall.
3. They were just coming in the last 1/2 of my career. I would not touch the job, it would be what we call a "Drive By".
4. I did do 2 jobs that had solar, but the owners had them taken down before i started the job and thrown away before I started the job, by agreement. They were not saving them anywhere near the cost of them after 10 years, in one of the 2. I had reroofed his house 20 years earlier, then 5 years later put them up. 15 years an losing money.
5. Imagine a roofer trying to take them down and reinstall and he breaks a panel and they probably won't make the same panel 10 years down the road. OMG.
BTW, I passed up a couple of siding jobs that had panels on the south side of the house.
Summary, they are a rip off and might save money if electric rates inflation adjusted went up 8 fold or more and if they lasted 20 years and redid the roof and solar at the same time.
My folks had a double wide trailer winter home on Key Largo. They had a big shed with a shower in it. Above it was a big black water tank with a valve water line to fill it as needed. By noon everyday it was warm enough to take a shower. Now, that was efficient solar and it was free, except for the big flat tank.
GFC, on the whole, I love Mexican people. 2/3's the way through my business years we had a big hailstorm here in Minnesota in 1998 and storm chasers brought in Mexican roofers from Texas, and many stayed and more followed with other storms. Near the end I had 2 crews of Mexicans. They would have worked 12 hours per day 6 days a week if I had the work, needed church on Sunday. Before them I had like white alcoholics, etc. I had only 1 Black in 30 years and he only lasted 1 month. I will take the Mexicans any day. The problem now is our government is ruining them with free money like they have done to the Blacks. My lover and I hope there is reincarnation and she and I will end up reincarnated together on another planet.
That Blackrock story is getting around. I wonder if they are selling and shorting into the rally they are creating. Blackrock and Vanguard control most everything these days.
Cryptos broke a declining resistance lines. I could see RIOT going to if it breaks the March 2022 high then to 45 anyway. Not buying.

"immediacy bias", good point. I feel we need to look at psychological manipulation as well, 2 stories.
1. A buddy of mine and I were buying and holding gold and silver stocks in the late 90's. Even with inflation, they kept inching down. Then one of my best calls ever, maybe the only good one, lol, after 911 I noticed gold and silver did not fall with all that bad news. I thought "BUY". In late 2005 and early 2006, a nice rally finally happened after inching up from 2001. My downfall was I had a lot on Sunshine Mining that had a positive annual report about their future, a $1.00 stock, which was my biggest holding. 6 months after the glowing report, it went Chapter 7, and that was six months before the big gold and silver rally. I ended up with a slight gain in my accounts, would have been a double is Sunshine had gone up with the rest of them.
2. I called stocks a sell in the mid to late 90's. I would have been right on, but the internet stocks exploded and carried the averages much higher in 98 and 99. I can bet that the non internet stocks went nowhere the last 2 years or even fell. Is there a new trend now? Well, they are trying to make AI the newby, but I can't see it getting huge now. EV's just replace other car sales, so no net gain.
A third point now is mutual funds own incredible amount of shares of all the big and midcap stocks and control many employees for the Deep State. And so many naked shorts now compared to 1929 or even 1987. The Deep State can make a big profit off of a big fall now or at least largely soften the blow to cover their losses. Many stocks they don't control may go BK and they buy them for pennies. They think longer term that us little guys.
Tractor Supply that sells to conservative farmers put out "WOK" PR. If they did not, would they still have 100 or more funds owning their stock? The Deep State can destroy anybody they want?

The US has not had a major short term crash since Black Monday 1987, and in 1987 most averages ended up for the year, unlike 1929 that took a few years to come back. Few investors were around in 1987 and that was mild compared to what can happen. But, "irrational" is what the markets specialize in, especially metals.

Renault Says A ‘Chinese Storm’ Is Coming For Europe’s EV Industry
https://oilprice.com/Latest-Energy-News/World-News/Renault-Says-A-Chinese-Storm-Is-Coming-For-Europes-EV-Industry.html
Europe’s electric vehicle industry faces pressure from imports of vehicles from China, which dominates the supply chain for raw materials for batteries, Jean-Dominique Senard, chairman of France’s automaker Renault, told Reuters in an interview this weekend.
“When I talk about a Chinese storm, I'm talking about the strong pressure today related to Chinese (electric) vehicle imports into Europe,” Senard told Reuters.
“We are capable of making electric vehicles, but we are fighting to ensure the safety of our supplies.”
Europe and the United States have been looking to reduce their dependence on China for supply of critical minerals and rare earth elements in order to reduce the risk of an energy transition slowdown if geopolitical tensions further rise.
Earlier this year, the EU and the U.S. agreed to start talks on a Critical Minerals Agreement (CMA) on cooperation and trade facilitation.
Yet, the Chinese dominance and the recent Chinese restrictions of exports of two metals showed that Europe and the U.S. will require a lot of investments to create their own supply chains.
China’s EV success is the result of years of investments in the supply chain and raw materials, Senard said, noting that it would take billions of euros for Europe to replicate this.
Last week, China sent shockwaves through the supply chain and chip markets after announcing export controls on two rare earth metals, gallium and germanium, starting on August 1. These critical rare earth metals are used in microchip production. Former vice-minister of commerce Wei Jianguo told China Daily that the export restriction on gallium and germanium was “just the beginning” in an escalating technology war with the United States.
Following the Chinese announcement, a spokesperson for VW, which uses gallium and germanium, told Reuters the German car-manufacturing giant was “ready to take measures together with its partners if necessary.”
France’s Renault is looking for alternative zero-emission car technologies, its chairman told Reuters this weekend.
“We're looking for alternatives to avoid paralyzing the country if, for example, we run out of batteries,” Senard told Reuters.

I heard from Dew they can reverse that filing anytime they want. I am puzzled when they are trying to divest the company and are concerned about someone trying to buy it? Maybe someone could buy it "on the cheap" by buying controlling shares or such?
I am hoping they have a deal in place and trying to protect that deal. The buyer might be waiting for Q2 financials to determine the final price. It seems Stabil Nutrition waited for Q 1 financials before that deal was finalized before they bought all their rice bran production. And surprised they even bought it. What is left is break even and with MGI expanding production 50% plus and getting revenue from it in mid May at their Q1 CC might make the company profitable.
They usually get Q2 financials out in early to mid May. They got one of the Q's out the end of the following month or in this case the end of July would compare. Fingers crossed. I put a lot of speculation in this post. I have NEVER seen RIBT so secretive, as they should be now. Last week a "smart buyer" got the stock up a lot by raising the bid, the sells that 2 days were 4 to 1 sell over buy. But total volume the last months is like 24,000 average. That is what I call kids, not investors or insiders.

Point, not that many have losses, so not much press. We all heard about Sears/Kmart, who became SHLD, Sears Holding.
LOL, I left off my main point about population and EV's. The cost of expanding and maintaining the current electric power grid will add a lot of overall cost of EV's verse oil. But, even with 25% less population, the power grid would need expansion if we went 100% EV's?
Fun board today, some good heads here. I do think if population is decreased 25% or more by 2050 EV's will be all there will be. If population stays the same or higher, I ask will there be enough oil and or lithium? What will landfills look like, etc.?

Why stocks could keep going higher even with massive unrest across America
https://www.cnbc.com/2020/06/02/why-stocks-could-keep-going-higher-even-with-massive-unrest-across-america.html
KEY POINTS
Stocks continue to rally, even as many American cities remain under curfews and are bracing for continued protests.
Analysts said the protests may be alarming, but they are not impacting the stock market, which remains fixated on the economy’s reopening.
A big factor keeping the markets going is the trillions in stimulus from the Fed, other central banks and governments around the world.

My guess, the sale of the rice bran division was key to selling the rest of company. I believe they sold the worst of the company, but it could take years to get the stock up seeing to say $3. I'd take that now, seeing parts of the USA being intentionally destroyed for the "Greater Good", so called.
