Reading through the last several days of posts, I'm struck by the main argument questioning positive versus negative results forthcoming. It's obvious we're news-dependent. I don't get into Twittering as my professional background is in Investor Relations. That said, I'm not seeing anything suggestive of a pump & dump scheme afoot. Mind you, I'd be all over it in a heartbeat if I smelled it---and I'd be notifying the proper authorities.
Instead, I see a company making very visible moves with a notable PR company in a co-leading capacity. As for the Dallas acquisition, I view it as an example of a reverse merger. If I'm right, it makes sense if only to avoid the long process of becoming a publicly tradable company---at great expense, I might add. The acquisition may have been executed as a cashless exercise using equity (shares) as the currency equivalent. It spells dilution but when operating on a shoe string, it's what businesses do.
On another subject, I see folks worried about the security of their invested dollars. So I'm asking what others regard as significant? I hold 1.5 million shares costing me $8,700. I've got a loss of $1,704 on the books. This is what I do for my living despite the ups and downs. It's all part of a process not without excitement from both losses as well as gains.
I wonder if some others wouldn't mind divulging what their positions are and what it means to them that they find they are unable to control their money's destiny? It might help many USEI investors if we were a bit more open here. After all, it takes money to invest in anything, of course. And maybe a bit of craziness doesn't hurt. But in the long run it's a combination of nerves, intuition and thorough understanding of the business model and its trading public that decides the fate of each of us investors. And for the record, I get emotional when I invest just a couple of hundred $$$, so it's rarely about the money. It's winning at the game of foraging and market-play is just that.
I hope others come clean a bit here---we are anonymous, so nothing is at risk.
Best of luck and good fortune to us all!
