New guy here.......
First and foremost I am not a Angel Investor, a Sophisticated Investor, Professional Investor, or anything along those lines. I am a High-risk High-Reward/Loss speculative type investor. I've taken heavy hits and reaped in heavy rewards.
My best investments from 2004 - 2009 have been:
Gold at about $280oz
Silver just over $4oz
Google $104 per share
SiriusXM $0.06 per share
Las Vegas Sands $4 per share
Bank of America $4 per share
Breezer Homes $0.25 per share
AIG $0.25 per share (Then Reverse Split to $18 per share)
Ford Motor Company $1.02 per share
Just to name a few of my speculatives that people thought would never recover and/or Fail. I've done well, but I’ve also had my hits too:
Frontier Airlines - FAILED
Encore Energy Systems - FAILED
Good Life China Corporation - FAILED
I am a risk taker and I like to think that I am not too terrible at picks, for the most part. Now, I’ve been watching this BRAVADA board for some time now and my initial assessment is a lack of faith, commitment, presentation of disinformation (I assume by the day traders), and negative personal "I want results now" type statements.
Don't think I am a hypocrite, I too day trade on occasion if I see some good market swings, but not on startup companies, I think it's unfair to them. You start bad mouthing a potentially good pink sheet company before it can breakout it will stay stagnate and will probably never flourish like one would hope. We the investors (Longs or Shorts) have a significant impact on the outcome of a stock. Our faith in a company IS our future profits.
I do agree with some of the other members on this board that Mr. Alex needs to cut back on the PR's that are not significant enough to invoke investor interest, however positive the PR may be. His over use of the word "Soon" should be cut back and only used if the information will be released, IMO, within two weeks. I think that in itself would help boost investor confidence because it will show that the CEO has follow through and is somewhat sympathetic towards his investors.
On an unorthodox note, with all the bad publicity on this board and other boards, probable word of mouth, and the performance of the stock in relation to the bad mouthing. Maybe Mr. Alex is following an old medical adage of "The solution to pollution is dilution". Meaning dilute the shares enough so that day traders lose interest because they're not making as much as they would like. This gives room for long term faithful investors to acquire more shares, or have previous investors who had once lost faith come back to support. This is an unsubstantiated THEORY on my part.
I say let the day traders try and trade. If they can't pry the shares from our hands (the longs) they'll go elsewhere and let this stock stabilize and climb (speculation on my part, I’m not a professional).
As you can see nothing in this post is business like in terms of A/S, O/S, SS, etc... I have taken a stab in this company because in my fair opinion I believe it has a lot of potential and room for some explosive growth. It's just going to take time. My mere $15k into this company is probably a far cry and nickel and dimes in comparison to what others have invested, but I’m a speculator. I’m taking a chance. I just hope that use investors are not going to be the master of our own demise.
Respectfully,
Rudy Lopez
