HOLY CRAP! You guys are driving me nuts, this is the first night in almost a week that I finished reading all of the posts before midnight! Since you have kept me reading I haven’t been able to post much, so bear with me, I need to catch up here. (No special order here, AND of course just my humble opinions & ramblings.)
1.) My take on “in association with Dow Chemical”. Star Towers has a contract with EESO to buy product. And they or S. Korea, not EESO, have a contract with DOW Korea to apply same product. We are siblings not lovers, thus DOW HQ doesn‘t know us.
2.) I don’t think DOW is the buyer. In the above situation they would sell product to the Lees and then get it from them to use it. Doesn’t make much sense, but maybe that is why it is only a one year contract.
3.) WTF is going on with the share price? Someone out there wants this where it is, could be buyer, could be MMs, could be someone that agrees with Jared about volatility, could be any number of reasons. Lets say this person picked up a boat load of shares over the past few weeks. If that person has two IRAs, each with a different broker, he could sell from one account and buy into the other effectively locking the price. And tomorrow he reverses the process. Sure he will lose some when others snag them, but he will also pick some back up when someone else drops the ask. And if his accounts are new enough, he probably has a bunch of free trades from the brokers. (Watching this board has really twisted my thinking processes. LOL)
4.) I am a numbers person, my banker dreads me because when he throws ratios at my business trying to tighten loan terms, I can throw back other ratios at him to lessen the impact. Having said that, I am not going to throw out a PPS for the offer, all of the ones already posted can be justified in one way or another. (Except maybe the $10.00 someone threw out the other day. COME ON!! LOL) What I am going to do though is reflect on how the numbers out there will change my life.
.033 = My accounts are close to where they were before the CACA HIT THE FAN.
.050 = My accounts are close to where they would have been with the growth rate I had before.
.100 = My credit cards are paid & my son‘s college is paid for.
.150 = My mortgage is paid off.
.200 = I am completely debt free.
.250 = The house is remodeled & new cars.
.300 = I buyout one or two of my partners, and run the company MY WAY.
.500 = Say F-IT, sell out to my partners & move to ????.
1.00 = Wife calls 911 - I spend months in hospital.
2.00 = Wife calls mortician - hooks up with young pup. (I’m watching you guys! LOL)
3.00 = Kids call mortician for both of us & throw party from hell. (Your all invited.)
OK I think I’m done for now. It is blast being part of this, and you guys only increase the fun. I truly wish all of you the best of luck with this gem we have here. We do need to relax though. Jared knows what he has and I trust that he will make the right decisions.
