you GOTTA be JOKING me! ABPR.... what the!!!???
had this one in my back pocket, hidden from sight. the hold quotient on a stock for a company that doesn't exist is nil divided by zero. in this particular case the ceo died, his wife, who succeeded him, didn't care about the business, the state license was revoked, and the market for the stock long ago went up in smoke with barely a wisp left in the air. so, i was walking out the door when a trade triggered the alert bell in my app. and then, ring-a-ding-ring, it does it again. and wouldn't ya' know, this stock is running. because..... inert is good. really??? well, what do i know? enough to fuel my trigger finger. began the year with $2k buried in it, and now i've got $4k and a million shares of profit. and who could have seen that?
is this market nuts, or what?
btw... the push that was twitted about ABPR is that its a security company. unfortunately, the tense is wrong. it 'was' a security company. i have a hunch i should have dumped the other mill but my curiosity (and maybe a little bit of greed) made me hold for yet another day. i'll be watching the open hour(s) tomorrow to see if there's a follow-up. while i can't lose on the investment, i could lose the profit, and that's every bit as important, after all, there's no reward in breaking even. and no profit is ever too little.
