Emperial Americas Launches Comprehensive Marketing Campaign
A bit of history is important here to fully understand the recent holiday of May 5th
Most people don't know that back in 1912, Hellmann's mayonnaise was manufactured in England . In fact, the Titanic was carrying 12,000 jars of the condiment scheduled for delivery in Vera Cruz, Mexico , which was to be the next port of call for the great ship after its stop in New York .
This would have been the largest single shipment of mayonnaise ever delivered to Mexico. But as we know, the great ship did not make it to New York. The ship hit an iceberg and sank, and the cargo was forever lost. The people of Mexico, who were crazy about mayonnaise, and were eagerly awaiting its delivery, were miserable at the loss.
Their anguish was so great, that they declared a National Day of Mourning, which they still observe to this day. The National Day of Mourning occurs each year on May 5th and is known, of course, as –
Sinko De Mayo.
Now you know the rest of the story. :)))
TEXX-prediction-buy at 40 this week or pay 50 next wk
IMO, and not a rec to buy or sell
well it doesn't look like we will get the opportunity to buy more shares in the 20 cent range. I really hoped we could talk the price down.
I have to remind myself the float is only 722k and our group already has over 300,000 shares. When you add in the stock changing hands this week, there jjust is not that many shares left. We did get down a little lower than I predicted but looks like someone is just soaking in any selling again today.
Counting up the shares not held by our group I would guess that the supply or stock overhang is getting low ,
My read is that by Friday or Monday we move up a notch.
Any seller can see patience is rewarded in the 40's
YESSSSS for TEXX
BIDs are starting to stack, looks like this 40 cent floor is holding
I am just below that with size to add to my position. I had flipped a few shares earlier when it initially spiked to 80 cents.
It is only natural that those that pumped TEMN would be the most jaded now with TEXX.
I went back and read some 6000 posts on the TEMN board,,now that was a lot of pumping (price up 10 fold)and unfortunately the shell went bad.
THey really got ahead of themselves, many of the detractors now would have been better off applying the same effort to TEMN back then. They wouldn't have gotten burned so bad.
TEXX is now much further down the road with significantly less risk as the.
One good rule in stocks is don't get emotional about them, when you do you make bad decisions.
"don't love or hate em" just make money.
you are way off on the downside risk. Our group has held about half the float since Jan from a previous merger candidate that was cancelled. Thus the effective float is smaller than stated (732k). We are holding for higher numbers and are always inclined toward long term gains with multibaggers. Buyout?
Company insiders are certainly going to hold there majority stake for an eventual buyout
The chart show a nice 50% consolidation from the first spike to 85 cent cents
40 cents pretty well sets the floor based on many factors.
Can't confirm but I believe the awareness campaign is mostly being done with cash, not with shares, so there is no dumping to fund the campaign. Sure we have all seen stocks where millions of shares are given out, the stock has huge volume, price appreciation, and then it drops below the original base. Not the case here.
The companies plan is to enlarge the shareholder base and capitalization, to go along with the full product rollout nationally.
Everything is being done first class and moving along rapidly from my perspective. We have been averaging 1 news release per week and would expect that to continue.
Looking for further major announcements in the very near future.
more distributors?, big names in the industry to join company?, major advertising campaign? eventual worldwide expansion(except Mexico by law)
I think you are correct...I predict a new uptrend
this looks like the floor is 40 cents...there has been a downtrend but the BID is changing and as the story gets told I believe we will see 70--80 cents short term with a move to 1.75 or 2 within 6 months.
old TEMN holders this is your chance, but it won't last long..these shares available below 50 cents will be gone this week as we start to move up.
25k BID at 44 cents
Repost .of MAY 3rd post #1049. (looks like I over estimated the float, the company must have done something to lock up more shares, getting the float down to 730,000, this a great and shows confidence in where this is going)
Post # of 1049
Shares OS 8.6 mill TEXX
this is excellent news. It would appear that those claiming that a 100 million shares were going to hit the market were mistaken.
"A far cry from the 1.5 million or 5 million people were stating
earlier this year."
Prior to the R/M the float was approx 1.5 mill and the OS 5.6 mill.
So I assume the 3 million shares added go to company insiders or for debt conversion. Obviously this will all be clarified in subsequent audited financials.
Don't know about everyone else but I feel this is a reasonable number of shares at first glance.. This does not appear as though the company is looking to dump 10's of millions of shares in the market. Anybody think this is excessive ??
I believe our float is still approx 1.6 million.
There are three potential parties that have anything over a 100,000 shares to possibly sell in the market. So I am sure the company knows where the selling is coming from and what potential size.

http://pics.newsware.com/gc.asp?nm=131617&dt=12183&ky=01KgK6n8-iIhM
things are looking better.. no wholesale selling and now a sizable buy at the ASK....
as you said before fink,,, probably a lot of housekeeping going on.
I will maintain my opinion that the effective float is less than a million and probably less than one half million.
Those large blocks that would flash across the screen were likely not real IMO
Fink you are on the right track,,,the 100k briefly offered was vapor. the company checked on it immediately and the MM reportedly said oops, sorry got an extra 0 in there. The company knows there are no 100k blocks for sell. And be real, what fool would show a 100k offer...
will elaborate later when I have time

ARET. Gusherman, really appreciate your thoughts. much consideration obviously given to your posts. objective, knowledgeable, and sincere words to take to the bank.
(and wise, but that is my bias :)
Looking forward to your continued thoughts
Pro.
actually no new MM's,,they were all there last week.
VFIN is the only new one that showed up on Monday the 23rd
the others have all been here awhile
very interesting, no more large blocks to sell?
have all disappeared? I wonder why?? the stock over hang was bought out up to 70 cents on Tues I think. Looking very thin on top again.
Microcosm of Human Thought TEXX
"Time to embark on the journey to planet Macro.
Macro is a nice place, high up above everything else, where one can see all that moves.
When looking at something too close one loses perception and misses the beauty of the whole rather to see a small perhaps unimportant piece of it.
We as humans can't help but to see just what is in front of us, without wanting to learn what is that which surrounds the object. Toss money in the mix and now our thoughts are sharply focused on just a spec along with fierce emotion.
LET THE EMOTION GO - and Understand the Whole
Some want big news right a away, Why? These things take time, especially when they're real.
AAAA was always late with their filings and making sure that they did not surpass the extension is first priority. Now that is done!
Getting the old biz of AAAA out is second. While increasing shareholder awareness of the company, hence new symbol announcement.
Filing the super 8k is most likely third, or an amended 10K.
Any shares supposedly "issued" during the Queste merger that failed, was never issued as there was no deal, therefore no shares, whether 100 million or not.
The shares outstanding currently, as stated earlier is roughly 5,300,000-5,500,000.
If Victory is making an investment, which is very likely, I would guess the maximum outstanding would increase to a total of 10-15 million, depending on how much in infused in the company which will serve as and increase to stockholders equity and not mere dilution.
Being that this has all been done before, any mistakes in the past will not be repeated , making this time around feel like a well oiled machine.
The right news at the right time can make a huge difference. Remember that most of us here are involved by accident whether via TEMN or AAAA, as more new shareholders come on that had nothing to do with either will drive the price, as they will see without hurtful eyes what the opportunity truly is.
This is an opportunity bigger than both AAAA and TEMN and should be looked upon as such.
TEXX is going much higher. Stop worrying and look at the big picture and try to better understand all the nuances that need to be executed. Forget the past, money made and money lost, nothing was done in malice.
There is much bigger money at risk that believe in this than those who are scalping for pennies and dimes.
Follow the footsteps of giants and reap real rewards!"
an excellent post attributed to a wise investor reposted here.
Pro thanks the wise investor from West Palm Beach
great news FINK,,good workkk!!!
wouldn't expect those to show up at all since they really never existed..probably no FORM 3 or 4....maybe the company will clarify once the shares are officially cancelled. I don't know. We tried calling the TA but they would not comment on the OS, At some point the company releases will have to comment on the OS.
big scoop here for you Fink.
There has been a rumor on the street of a LARGE number of shares that were going to hit the market here. THIS IS NOT TRUE.
Those acting on that rumor will regret it. IMO
HERE is the deal. THe previous merger candidate had shares all lined up to consumate the deal, almost a 100 million shares. But these have been returned and are in the process of being cancelled.
I think multiple parties got wind of that and paniced, I don't blame them, but this information was not to be released but somehow the information circulated in a distorted form. The transfer agent is not allowed to release this information, it has to come from the company.
Next question? How do I know? I was involved directly as an investor with the previous merger candidate and learned about these details when the merger agreement broke up.
So I know a broker who is advising/begging his client to sell based on this erroneous information of some 100 million shares to hit the market,, so I have to laugh. My friend is holding tight wisely. Perhaps this is also what buytrigger was hinting at but would not say.
Now I could be wrong but am quite sure I am not, in fact I added shares this week FYI
PERT on the BID and ASK
watching today with interest,, PERT may try to buy back most of those shares it sold yesterday ( shorted ???, or FTD)
Anybody not on board, anything under a dollar is a great buy IMO
I added shares this week. FYI
In Love Light and Service to all.

nothing is ever as it appears
IMO whoever accumulated the 49,000 shares yesterday is trying to shake out some more selling.....in the 60's using the ploy of a large quantity at he ASK .....same party IMO
If someone had a bunch of shares to sell, the last thing you would do is to show a large size.
The large size is going to frighten away buyers at his ASK of 66, so they are not really risking the loss of the shares, which they really don't want to do.
Have to admit I have used this ploy myself usually with great success. It is very helpful on these small floats.
VFIN already has got WDCO to offer 2500 at 65
almost 50k shares TEXX bought today by what appears to be mostly one person or group.
yes, there was also almost 50k shares sold,
but the buying and the move up in price is solid and impressive
this would presage the audited financials
8K/A filed new independent accountant,,,now we understand the delay.
very strange "goings-on" PERT jumps from the ASK to the BID now
WOW,, ASK just moved up to 85 cents and ARCA is on the BID at 58....
THis was my quess that someone threw out soft ASK's to collect shares at cheap prices. Now,, the ask moves up to 85 cents.
I sincerely do not believe this is a scam. My opinion is that they got blindsided with unregistered shares in TEMN or other issues not anticipated. This is a common occurrence recently and reflects a very firm hand on the part of the DTC and FINRA
To me a scam implies someone makes off with a bundle of money, and I don't see that here or in TEMN.
Honestly I don't know why VP doesn't demand the return of the purchase price 475,000 due the lack of a "clean shell", perhaps misrepresented to them.
interesting, new TEXX MM VFIN on ask at 65 cents. IMO sophisticated traders often will throw in some SOFT quotes to make it look like there is a big seller. VFIN otherwise would have just hit the bid at 64 cents to quickly unload their 5000 shares at a penny less. So I suspect NITE and VFIN are the same party today.
Anybody want to claim the buying through NITE?? They seem to be establishing a significant position. FINK is that you ????? (:
I like it!!!!!
