Re: Shell Stock Watch Shell Stocks are publicly traded corporations, all that exists of the original company is its corporate shell structure. The company should have no assets or liabilities, a public company that no longer has any business and just retains capital structure and reporting status. Many private companies like to reverse merge with a Shell and become public themselves. Since the public company changes it's name to reflect the private, this merger gives us the reverse situation, thus the term "reverse merger" http://www.shellstockreview.com/ssr-Home.html
A 13-G filed by a well known RM partner is a very good sign that the shell has been vetted by someone who knows the business, and is now an interested party trying to shop it.
15-12G filings. Alot of people jump on a stock the minute they file a 15-12G, but why? In my mind, those companies are just begining the process of shopping their shell, if they're even thinking in that direction.
Instead, I'm looking at 15-12G filers from a few years back. The wheels of negotiation grind very slowly, so I imagine a shell could be in play for several years before the final paperwork is filed. __________________ "People are not remembered by how few times they fail, but how often they succeed." - Thomas Edison
