By cool cat I assume that you mean I take my time to do my homework and I do not panic, I understand that changing an entire trillion-dollar industry through quantum physic is something that happens to one’s investment but once in a lifetime and I am not an expert, but I get the concept and therefore I must rely on others skilled in the science to implement the change to the world. I understand that I do not know more than experts in this science and while I can make suggestions, they know the entire story. So correct, I don't panic and honestly, I cannot understand why anyone that is so nervous and thinks they know better would post their feelings, if they truly do know better they should just sell, turn around and short it then sit back and see if they truly are smarter than those in the industry. I’m here to see this through, if I’m wrong, oh well I don’t blame anyone.
The shorts are still only halfway through their bet, they have borrowed and sold 20 million shares, they have literally inflated the shares available by about 20%. I still do not think many understand that but one day will get it.
Should I have sold half my shares when the institutions pushed up the share price to $20 I guess but I didn’t, oh well, yes I remain cool, stomping my feet will not change that decision, it is what it is, whatever and honestly when the shorts recover, we are still at $20.
I stand with Lebby and yes JM, again all the shorts did was to sell 20 million shares to push down the price. If the company pulled 20 million shares from the float the price would be probably about $30.
It looks to me like the shorts can make some folks freak out and do and say things that are not in that investors best interest, weird but deep down they believe in this, so they do not sell.
This is a huge change for the WORLD, Folks currently employed, invested in the industry do not want to be proven wrong.
Also understand there is also a big shelf out there, those guys do not play nice, understand though that once they ARE in the game and on our team, they will be a great benefit, period and full stop they will in fact change the momentum, but for now things are still playing out. We had a side bar what if on this subject over wine amongst investors last year at the SHM. Hard to believe almost a full year has passed.
Does that make sense? If so then wait, if not sell, which is what the shorts want.
If one's goal is to pay off a credit card a card, pay college debt, get a down payment on a home, buy a beach house, sell when it hits that number. Honest but do not blame others for your timing. Many today rely on others for their decisions, "well it wasn't my fault, no one told me", life does not work that way. Some folks today need to put on their big girls (or boys) pants and get a puppy.
Those that listen to folks they have not rubbed elbows with, nor taken the time to speak to management and not even know the true motivation of an anonymous person who's actual motivation is the opposite of their investment befuddles me. They want what you have, get it? (not directed at Micro)
So Lightwave is set up to do multiple, partnerships, can we all agree that during the development period of this science Lightwave has put in place many patents to facilitate this business mode, agreed? Do we all agree that there are 2 parties to each partnership? Oh and those that want hard and fast revenue numbers to come before a partnership are simply not thinking. Cart before the horse kind of thing.
We know that Lightwave is currently pursuing the 2km to 10km Modulator market, this is but a single use in a single component, the transceiver. They are currently having the foundries run and perfect the process of mass producing something that has been done many times both at Lightwaves and when 2 other companies put Lightwaves material on their device both set world records.
Let us say a deal is inked with someone to develop a use that is not on lightwaves horizon for say 5 years, like gaming, Lightwave licenses Perkinamine thru a technology transfer deal that includes a share in that venture through a special dividend for each of Lightwaves shareholders to receive 1 share in gaming’s R Us in the deal. Understand that when issuing a dividend, the company would only issue shares for actual shares the company does NOT deliver a share in that to any shorted shares. The shorts must buy that and deliver a share, but if it is private, it is simply not available, period and full stop.
Honestly I’d like to see a deal for medical testing devices to get that ball rolling, I think that we owe it to humanity they can do some awesome things now and I’d like to see a company like Health “ A” (GE HealthCare, Johnson and Johnson etc.) forms a new entity to begin work on this. Health “A” forms a new entity Health/LWG “B”, Health”A” funds it and delivers 100 million shares of Health/LWLG B to Lightwave Logic. Each current shareholder (that has not loaned their shares out) is entitled to 1 share in “B”. The shorts would be forced to somehow get shares in “B” to deliver to whomever loaned those shares. One thing that I could see hold this up is that ‘until exercised’ Managements Warrants and Options would not be entitled to a share. IMO Exercising those shares visible to us via form 4’s would be a signal. This would be a good conversation for Bucci as a ‘what if’ company “Z” (totally unrelated to lightwave) did this kind of partnership.
Honestly, we did a great job developing this message board back when it mattered, when it really mattered, I think control of the share price is in the institution’s hands now, the best the shorts can hope to do utilizing our board is to bring in other retail shorts to cover their shorts positions. Honest.
The shorts remain at 20 Million they are still out there and need to be recovered, somehow. The volume is very, very low, selling exceeds buying, ask yourself honestly who is selling when there are 5 are foundries working the perkinamine and a new InP foundry in Europe coming online. Hmmmmm.
Oh and the incentive plan will help Lightwave attract talent and make them strive harder to increase the value for the shareholders.
X thanks Micro I hope I answered you, I too want it all and I want it now, actually yesterday but it is what it is. Are you coming to the SHM?
Ooops editing time is up
