Cash: if you would like to see some online DD then do some yourself. This is new to all of us as well. You have mentioned a lazy Tuesday but get off your lazy *ss and help everybody out. Between you and homeboy whining about share structure I'm surprised this board isn't in the top 20 today.
A buyback would send this into pennyland. Even an announcement that the drilling permit was authorized and they actually begin pulling some of the estimated 50 mil of oil out of the ground.
Nice day today. I saw some nice sized buys. I told you that Raphael didn't seem too happy with the PPS. Something has got to be brewing. I would anticipate news is on the way.
BTW, nice find Sony. Very nice looking site so far. EOM
I found this regarding the Bric Concept. Not sure if it is part of the philosophy of Adam's thinking but thought it was interesting nonetheless.

Understanding 'BRIC' and 'TMT'
By Walter T Molano
The coining of BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India and China) was a boon for the emerging markets. The snappy acronym summed up the macroeconomic forces that were reshaping the planet. The reintegration of China and India into the global economy significantly raised the demand for raw materials - creating new opportunities for commodity-producing powerhouses such as Brazil and Russia. The acronym sparked myriad new investment funds and trading strategies, boosting capital flows into the
emerging markets and trading commissions for investment banks.
However, the BRIC concept did not fully categorize the situation across the emerging-market spectrum. Some countries were marching along a different path that was not necessarily tied to China and India. These countries can be categorized as the TMTs - Turkey, Mexico and Thailand.
The TMTs are interesting because they broke away from their traditional sectors and chose development models that lacked comparative advantages. Political ruptures such as the Mexican Civil War, the rise of Ataturk and the Vietnam War signaled the shift. As a result, they abandoned their emphasis on commodities and became the main assembly bases for the Eurozone, North America and Asia. Through the exploitation of weaker labor regimes, laxer environmental codes, and favorable custom agreements, these countries became the regional assembly points for automobiles, appliances and other light-industrial processes.
Interestingly, these countries do not enjoy the typical endowments, such as large pools of skilled labor and concentrations of capital, needed for industrialization. However, the exploitation of weaker regulatory frameworks helped compensate for their shortcomings. Unfortunately, the construction of an economic model on regulatory distortions does not allow countries to engage all of their labor resources. The value-added content of light manufacturing is very low. As a result, these countries do not generate sufficient export earnings, and they are forced to rely on remittances and capital-account inflows. Moreover, it leads to the segmentation of the workforce. These economic characteristics shape their social and political frameworks, and they are manifested in their risk profiles.
On the social side, the countries are highly segmented. There are pools of modernity and wealth placed along vast areas of feudal poverty. Istanbul/Ankara, Mexico City/Monterrey and Bangkok/Chiang Mai are pictures of affluence, wealth and sophistication. However, Turkey's hinterland, Mexico's south and the lower stretches of Thailand have not benefited from the light-manufacturing process. On the contrary, these countries have broken in two, one that is representative of the region into which they are assimilating, and another that is mired in the past. The segmentation often highlights traditional schisms, such as the racial divide in Mexico, fundamentalism in Turkey, and the religious divisions in Thailand.
Not surprisingly, the three countries have had difficult democratic experiences. A streak of authoritarianism runs through the TMTs, with the PRI (Partido Revolucionario Institucional, or Institutional Revolutionary Party) in Mexico and the military in Turkey and Thailand.
The three countries share many traits, and the market treats them similarly. Mexico and Thailand are rated BBB and BBB+. Turkey is the outlier; it is BB-. Thailand has a sovereign spread of 50 basis points, Mexico has 100 basis points and Turkey has 200 basis points. The three countries are close allies of the United States, and enjoy strong multilateral support. They also have vibrant financial sectors, with a strong proliferation of domestic credit.
Nevertheless, they are anomalies of the BRIC phenomenon because they do not feed into the ravenous demands generated by India and China. Their future is tied to the fates of the waning superpowers. Nevertheless, they are an important construct in the emerging market space - as an intermediate alternative to the commodity powerhouses that are rising out of South America, Central Asia and Africa.

Let's hope for some solid PR's starting on Monday. You have been right here supplying a good amount of DD over the past several months and I wish you the best of luck. Maybe we can all party in Tahiti some day with the tahitian lady's fanning us with palm fronds (I don't think my wife would mind as long as she has ample shopping money LOL). Good luck bro'.
If the impatient flippers would just hold their shares a little longer this could take off.
Energy stocks still a great buy
A growing, fuel-hungry population makes these companies look like bargains, unless you think global demand for fuel is going to decline (ha!) in the next few years.

If you're mad as hell about higher gas prices, there's really only one way to fight back that makes any sense: You just have to buy an oil company, or at least shares of one, so you can get a piece of the profits.
Although it might seem a little late for that -- major oil producer stocks are up 70% over the past two years, after all -- the truth is that energy companies are still unbelievably cheap.
They are so cheap that many veteran fossil-fuel-business executives and board members are nearly as busy buying their own companies' shares on the open market these days as they are buying private jets, pro sports franchises and seaside estates. On April 2, billionaire Chesapeake Energy (CHK, news, msgs) chief Aubrey McClendon, for one, bought 500,000 more shares of his company after it was already up 500% in the past five years.
How cheap? Well, one of my mentors likes to say that you "can't buy dimes for nickels," which is a warning to avoid stock market bargains that may prove too good to be true. Yet in this case, as you'll see in a moment, it's almost like buying quarters and silver dollars for nickels, as their soaring earnings potential has far outpaced current valuations. Lehman Bros. just Tuesday boosted target prices for virtually all of the energy stocks it covers, even though most are already up 50%-plus in the past nine months.
I just picked up another couple mil myself.
I remember the market cap @ 20 mil back in 06'. Hopefully we will see that again.
Here is the last email from Pinedo.
As I said before we are open for any review or inquire by anybody, the financials are accurate and posted on the website according regulations, our financials are compilated by a CPA firm, the same for the last four years. Our real problem is the short sellers and the fact that our company is not fully reporting in addition that is not piggy bag, so we only have one market maker, the same for the last two years. In addition we don’t advertize or spam, we don’t need to, we live out of our income. We recognize as shareholder the upsetting fact of the value of the shares
This will change soon

We communicated on Tuesday. I will post the emails. I mentioned to him that many message boards had him and PGPM as a scam and he was not too happy.
I have been communicating with Pinedo via emails which started off with negativity on my behalf. After a few back and forth emails I have a different view of him. He is as frustrated with the PPS as we are but says that will all change very soon. He mentioned most of his friends and family are shareholders and have all of us in mind. He stated that some of the issues were that PGPM is not fully reporting and that short sellers were an issue. He stated that he works 16 hours a day 6 days a week. He said he started in 1994 with many emerging energy companies and PGPM is one of the few remaining. He urged patience and said things will all change very soon. We shall see. GLTA
Oil $135 barrel, supply concerns, market should move up today and PGPM should move with it.
Have a safe trip Doug. Great post, I agree 100%.
Sweet Ant, I am pushing 10 mil myself
I believe most have been the buyback EOM
Over 1.5 billion have traded over the past several weeks!
How do you scam somebody into buying a stock at .0001? We have held and followed for months and have been loading up. The best is yet to come just relax. I had a feeling that along with the buyback that Lee had friends and family load up on the retail side. They have doubled their money and will eventually move on or buy back at 1's. I agree, let it settle and start a nice base back up. Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Oil topping $132 barrel, supplies are short, no increasing production in sight! I am in at much lower levels than before and will hold comfortably now.
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Is Lee holding this back to allow his long time followers the chance to load up before pulling the cord to let this baby flow. Thanks bro'. I have never had the opportunity to get in on a stock at the lowest possible pps before it explodes. Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Looks like 1's still available eom
Press release from 2006: Raphael explained the reason for the re-release was to show where the projected 50 mil in revs will come from in the coming months. They strategically waited until partners were lined up. He said the PPS will change very shortly. He mentioned the naked shorts were pulling the PPS down. If some weaker hands can hold a short squeeze will develop.
Thanks Rook. I know at least a dozen of us have waited patiently. Good luck to you and the regulars around here. I was out all afternoon and came back late to hear the news.
Bright future for shareholders. Congrats to all who loaded the truck. Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

MM scrambling for shares
PPS is .0025 eom
Hold your shares. Let's set these bastards up for a major short squeeze.
50 Mil in potential revenues. EOM
Setting the record straight.
I have been conversing with Mr. Pinedo via email and find him to be an honest man working his tail off to raise the value of PGPM. Below is the last bit of correspondence. I actually bought more at today's lows. The last line reads, "We recognize the upsetting fact of the value of the shares" THIS WILL CHANGE SOON.

I will try and call Lee later this afternoon but I really don't think he can or will divulge any info at this point. He has been tight lipped for 2 months which I believe is a good thing. Let him retire the shares, slowly raise the PPS and then start with the onslaught of PR's dealing with finalized deals and new projects. I honestly think we will see a PR by mid-next week or sooner. I also think the buyback is complete and someone in the know is loading up. Perhaps there is a buyout or merger in the works. All of this is just my opinion and I wish good luck to all of us that have stuck it out over the past 6 or so months.
Hope there are a couple of 1's left. I plan on adding a few more mil over the next few days. I think something sweet will be announced soon. No b*lls, no glory. Hopefully risk will = Reward. I think there is huge retail buys going on as well. Somebody knows something.
I like your opinion, many on this board would love to see pennyland.
Sweet close, should be fun tomorrow. EOM
I agree, we need to break through the wall at .0035 and it should make a nice little run.
I agree, looking strong with new support levels now let this b*tch run
Grab some shares by eod. This might actually have some run left.
