Webs,
P has one of the worst ratings I've ever seen on a stock, however, the P symbol alone has to be worth millions. How do you suppose they got it? The only good thing is their incredible sales growth rate +136% in last 12 months.

Ratings mean nothing to me. It's all about buying low and selling high.

Pandora media is currently in a downtrend....watching for a bottom, which might be in the $4 or less range.

Is it time to get in JBII again? Bolinger bands are pinching hard, about to explode one way or the other.

Wooish,

Hey Web

Is it time to get in JBII again? Bolinger bands are pinching hard, about to explode one way or the other.

I'd say yes....reason being that JBII has already signed a deal with Rock-Tenn (RKT). Rocktenn would not have signed a deal with JBI unless they believed in it. Check out some of the positive comment Rocktenn has made about P2O on their facebook page...
https://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/RockTenn-Recycling-and-Waste-Solutions/194274830624248

I don't know when, but I feel confident that JBII is about to blow the eff up.

The only negative is the Wells notice, but I believe the positives far outweigh this negative.

I'm changing my stance on JBII from bullish to nuetral....I got rid about 2/3 of position until I see something more positive and a reversal of the current downtrend. As it stand right now, JBII could go to zero and I would have still made a huge profit.

I'm on a search for my next hot pick, and will check out any tips. I still like Pandora Media (P), but am not ready to buy yet..I think we may see Pandora at $4 before it makes any kind of run.


I'm also holding 200,000 shares of ECEC for a lotto play. This one is a long shot, but could pay off huge one day.

MSFT short? Maybe? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?? Bueller???

I think JB has learned some valuable lessons in the past couple years. Folks that work for him have said that JB works 16-20 hour days without slowing down. He's a genius when it comes to designing and engineering things...He needs to stick to that side of the business and let somebody else handle the pr work, in my opinion.

Not that I was brave enough to do it, but JBII would have made for a great bounce play today. It would have been easy to pick up a couple thousand shares in the 60's and sell for a double. I did consider it, but I was afraid of that the stock might be halted...it didn't happen, but It could still happen if even more dirt is found on JB.

The only penny I'm into now is ECEC. This is a pure gamble play. I've been holding 200,000 shares, in hopes of a potential reverse merger...it's basically like playing a slot machine...sometimes you win, but most of the time you lose.
The last play like this that paid off for me was with DYER. I held 65,000 shares for three years before paid off, but when it did, it paid off big. By the time I cashed out my $600 had turned into $18,000.

The key with these play is to never put more than a few hundered dollars into them, because they most likely will never pay off.

Nothing catching my eye just yet, but I'm always looking. ECEC is a gamble, but you never know when it could take off. I held DYER for 3 years before it exploded. It went from .008 to .25 in about two weeks time. The trick with ECEC is to sell it during any run it might make...These kind of plays almost always drop hard and fast after they make a run.

I'll let you know when something comes up.

Boots,
It's fun to play around and great to make money. The only thing I have to say about the penny stocks and making money on them is that it nutures and breeds a subtle willingness in a traders mindset to begin playing them consistently. What I mean is that when you have a couple of big winners you begin to think that is the way to go and you may find yourself, unintentionally, playing them more often and with greater sums of your capital. I'm not saying anyone here is doing that but that it is human nature to gravitate in that direction once you have a couple of good winners.

I do agree, it can be a dangerous slope. I've been burned going that route, and I've learned from my losses. I won't put any money that I don't feel bad about losing on a "gamble" stock.

ROFLMAO!! There are some of us here who originally researched a lot of the older stuff (like the original formation of the company, the constant changes of accountants, and those pesky media credits) and had many discussions on piratetraders.com, Spike's old chat board. I swear to God, this writer has Johnny-boy nailed to the wall, and so does the SEC. We remember it all, Johnny. We lived through it. We even almost went to Niagara Falls, Ont. for that shareholder's meeting. Remember, Billy? Remember, Webs? Ski made a bundle. Webs made more. Lyehopper and I just laughed, along with Art, but we also made a few bucks. Billy, well, ouch. Hags? DMK? Who am I missing? Ah, those were the days! When Johnny-boy was in his manic phases. Should I post that picture of him and his brand new bride in front of the NASDAQ neon sign in NYC? Hilarious! Wonder if he's getting treatment yet? Sad sad sad.

Just started researching two companies... GEO and CXW. Private prison stocks could make a nice run if the Florida legislature gets their way...


Private-prisons bill advances in Florida Senate
By Steve Bousquet
Herald/Times Tallahassee Bureau
As emotions run high, lawmakers are again fast-tracking privatization of South Florida prisons while the state rushes to shut down seven others, an economic and political one-two punch that is creating anger and anxiety statewide.
The Senate Budget Committee voted 13-5 Wednesday to fast-track privatization of prisons in the southern tier of the state. Correctional officers who were not allowed to testify shouted “Shame, Shame!” as security personnel hovered near lawmakers.
Republican lawmakers are determined to overcome a judge’s rejection of last year’s privatization plan and pass a plan that can survive legal scrutiny. The current proposal, which would amount to the largest expansion of prison privatization in the country, would replace the state with for-profit vendors at 30 prisons in 18 South Florida counties. Only the South Florida Reception Center in Miami-Dade County, a point of entry for inmates, would remain state-run.
“I don’t have a particular bias for public or private,” said Senate Budget Chairman JD Alexander, R-Lake Wales, privatization’s leading advocate. “But I am charged, for one more year, with making every dollar count.”
For-profit prison vendors would be required to run prisons at a cost of at least 7 percent less than what state-run prisons cost taxpayers. Opponents say the savings would be outweighed by the loss of jobs, economic dislocation and lack of accountability.
“You don’t have all the facts,” former state Sen. Ron Silver of North Miami Beach, a lobbyist for the Teamsters Union, told Alexander.
Alexander says cheaper prisons would stave off cuts to schools and healthcare, and the pursuit of privatization has become his final legislative crusade. But opposition is building on multiple fronts.
Correctional officers and unions say privatization is being rushed and will cause widespread disruption to families, where it is common for two or more members of the same family to hold prison jobs.
And opponents are reviving past privatization fiascoes, including overbilling by prison operators and botched outsourcing of prison food services and inmate medical care.
Prisons are not just warehouses for criminals. In the jargon of modern-day politics, they are job creators — especially in struggling small towns where few job opportunities exist. But with the state pinched by a $1.4 billion shortfall and with the prisoner population shrinking, officials say it is a waste of money to keep empty prison dorms open.
Prison guards are incensed that over the past year the Department of Corrections has quietly moved the most troublesome and costly inmates from South Florida prisons to prisons upstate, making the southern prisons more attractive to profit-minded prison vendors. A spokesman for the system, Ann Howard, said 79 inmates in the south are classified as “close management,” out of a total of 10,000.
Silenced by senators Wednesday, the workers became even angrier, until Alexander met with three dozen of them for an hour and listened to their concerns. They included Sarah Babineaux, 40, who earns $32,000 a year after eight years at Martin Correctional, one of the South Florida prisons that would be privatized.
She said she lies awake at night, not knowing where her next job will be.
“It’s stressful,” she told Alexander. “My 17-year-old is looking for a class ring and I don’t know where I’m going to purchase it.”
Herald/Times staff writer Tia Mitchell contributed to this report.

Thanks for the concern Billyjoe, but it won't have much of an impact on me.

If the legislature manages to get this approved, it'll be huge for whichever company wins the bid...I think it'll be GEO. There might be a small run in anticipation of the news, but I don't think we will see a big run until approved contracts are announced. The good news is that we now have a heads up.

looks like it could be at its bottom on the weekly chart. its forming a decent cup base but in my opinion not the best market timing right now for any long positions. Webs. market is going to correct right here. patience may have paid off and allowed a cheaper entry. market is definitely due for a correction and it looks like it will happen. but good luck with it. you never know and only can make the most educated well researched entry possible when buying these stocks.

He's already there...Doug

There were two occasions in my life where I spent some time in New Jerseys state prisons. Trenton State Prison and Rahway. Both rough places and no place for the timid to find themselves. One of the favorite expressions of the inmates was to say that the guards were all "doing life" which was true in the sense that most of them were there 5 days a week for at least one 8 hr. shift per day. I always has to question how they could do that for at least 25 / 30 years knowing they had to go back there everyday to kind of "finish their sentence" and get their "release" thru their retirement and pension.
One thing about working as a guard in any high security prison environment is that you have to deal with individuals that have any number of serious crimes in their jackets and may have several bodies hidden somewhere and nothing further to lose by attacking a guard. And I saw a number of guards take it on the chin from guys who had nothing else to lose and could care less. Violence and a violent nature were the only things in there that gained you respect or maybe if you could read, write, and spell.
Webs, that chart looks great. double bottom cup base and the 20 ema just crossed back over the 50 ema. still showing alot of strength in making the right side of it's cup base. you may have missed out on some of the best part of a continuing move up. lot depends on the market which I still feel is ripe for a bigger correction.

Unfortunately for JBII, the latest financials prove the $10 per barrel claim to be false, instead the cost was $85 per barrel. I might be a buyer at .80.


Still keeping a close eye on Ford (F) for a possible entry.
