15 Low Priced Stocks You Should Know About Or At Least Laugh At
MAXLIFE FUND CORP (MXFD) might be a scam, but it’s one that just broke out a multi-month base above $20 and that’s why it gets its chart shown here…as tough as it is, gotta learn to buy scams on breakouts cuz the shorties are squealing, squeal shorts, squeal, you give this strategy a bad name…hope this thing goes to $30+

X-Rite, Incorporated (XRIT) says their liquidity has improved…yeahhh right, given these guys’ track record, they’re bound to screw up sooner rather than later…hopefully we can get a few suckers drinking the turnaround Kool-Aid some more
NGAS Resources, Inc. (NGAS) has short sellers that think it’s a real dog, too bad those shorts haven’t studied technical analysis cuz this is one steady uptrender…squeal you dumb shorts, you’re not worthy of having any money to your name
SatCon Technology Corporation (SATC) is trying to be a solar play, actually getting orders, too bad they’re just an industry joke, they are to the solar industry what Tim Sykes is to the trading community, good thing we’re both hitting new highs, ever so gradually
Standard Pacific Corp. (SPF) got a big investment, convertible at $3 and $4…I hate these types of deals, they make my tiny brain hurt…might try to short if it gets ahead of itself, but for now I’m just gonna do mental exercises.
Quantum Fuel Systems Technologies (QTWW) I nailed the easy breakout a few weeks ago, but did nothing about it cuz I’m a Jew whose rabbi banned hi form buying stocks…said it was against God’s will…damnit! I knew I shouldn’t have listened, rabbis are horrible investors and even worse traders….somebody posted a message they bought in, good, this is a classic PennyStocking buy…now you see why I make fun of Judiasm
Beacon Power Corp. (BCON) is up 50% off $1ish…forgive if me if I’m not impressed…let’s see it do a 2005-type spike, then I’ll get interested, for now, it’s just a mediocre chick not worth my time
Jamba, Inc. (JMBA) They surged after a deal with Nestle, but had to be their typical selves and report crappy earnings…maybe they should just sell space shakes…seriously…cuz as I’ve been saying for over a year (check back on TheStreet.com videos), this is one of the worst managed companies in the world…talk about screwing up a good idea…this is the liquid version of Krispy Kreme Doughnuts (KKD) who I hear has resorted to baking has brownies…which actually has some potential…in Amsterdam
The Beard Company (BRCO) is but a wee $15 mil company with a good earnings report…who knows when it ends or reverses, all I know is it had a cool name
IXYS Corporation (IXYS) is an earnings play, don’t expect a big reversal
BIOSHAFT WTR TECHNOLOGY INC (BSHF) At BSHF we don’t make the products you buy, we only make the spam you read more entertaining…that’s the company’s commercial…seriously…too bad it’s cracking now and I can’t find shares
You gotta try to short KENTUCKY USA ENERGY INC (KYUS) all the way down cuz it’s gonna be much lower in a few weeks, nothing prettier for a short seller than a strung out spammer junkie…this one’s like Gia…too bad there isn’t more to go around, that’s curse of being so beautiful
The CFO of Northern Technologies International Corp (NTI) might’ve been voted hardest working by some crappy local paper, but their stock rose cuz Superman on TheLion.com is on fire, now everyone’s trying to be early on his next picks…normally I’d be quick to short into such pups, but I a scared of this guy’s stock picking ability (PDO, MXC, GBR, SINO and now even joke of a company TAYD)…it’s not even about shorting these stocks anymore, Superman is his own stock and it’s tough to short something breaking out to new highs…like our fading stock charts, might wanna wait til the first down day, or down pick in this case..
Taylor Devices, Inc. (TAYD) is another Superman pick, even though this is a total joke of a company, you gotta respect the hot hand…reminds me a lot of ultra-low floater CTI Industries Corp. (CTIB) which was only a good short over any months, waay too gradual for me

Covered MXC at $33, FPP at $4.40 and $4.75. Partial cover of ROYL at $5.17 (stupid me, should have covered yesterday). But in any case a huge profit on all this POS oil craps, thank you Tim, thank you TIM board members!

Hey Tim, I stupidly reshorted KYUS after making money on it last week- at the current 3.50 price, I’m down- but holding till 2.15 (aka my happy/realistic profit target)- other than that, though, I’m 4 for 4 on shorts this month. Don’t discount your strategy hoping for a big response- I’m sure the new ones that get in and hope for the best are maybe down some, but pretty much the major picks of this site are well down this month. If everyone was patient (and ignorantly held the squeezes), they probably ARE up.

I was playing PDO … just my luck the LION lit off a short squeeze!! I’m short at $20 from the other day - hopefully the LION gets bored of it and his over-excited followers become sellers before the days is out.

IXYS looks to have peaked TODAY, Wed May 27, so it
could be an excellent SHORT play - IF you can find
shares to short

how could u not cover PDO for a $3 gain this morning? do u have an exit point? remember, it is an earnings play

Why didn’t you buy the MXFD breakout Tim? I almost did but I was waiting for you. I have to learn to play these on my own. It’s up 10% already.

quick pop on NFLD, a sham biotech with only one notable product & it failed phase 3 testing months ago, been in the shitter ever since, can’t find any news for the pop but it’ll go back down trust me, I have held this POS since $4 and wouldn’t mind at least making a quick buck on the short trade…

steve, i suck at buying…and my 1 trade today was used on shorting NTI, now that thats squeezing i’m feeling real good about my 40 cent/share profit
webster, niiice!

That is not a meaningful breakout on MXFD. The stock went Reg SHO and what few shorts there were, were forced to cover. I have covered 94% of my short position over the last two days.
Wow, that was painful. At least MXFD will not end up being my white whale.
33burky(TIMBUCKS: $29)
May 28th, 2008 at 10:55 am
Exit point on PDO was $16. Yah, earnings play - AMEX - commodity play - I understand why you don’t like these. FPP & MXC both down over 10% - PDO only down 4% until LION and gang are done playing. Gotta respect their clout though - I can’t compete. I’m playing these over a couple of days as I don’t always have the time to watch them as closely as I like.
btw … half way through your DVD - great stuff.
34Webster(TIMBUCKS: $74)

My opinion on FPP right now. Playing the same as yesterday, staying at a tight range of 4.7 and 4.33 If you can get in at the upper end and hold till afternoon we could see this drop down to around 4. Although very dangerous being an oil play.

WOw TIM, that was a close call with MTI, covered at $ 11.30 for a profit then it took off for 13.
what you think of cred, I’ve been short on it since thursday, think it got lots of support around 15, have a tight trail order, but thinking of just closing it now and moving on to something with more downside potential.
Can’t short KYUS, would give it a try in the afternoon, once my TOS is finally funded (just got the confirmation)
Congrats on the traffic, guess i better make money now before your strategy becomes too popular.

Shorted 700 FPP at 4.5, out at 4.31 $113 after commissions. I should have held this all day, because I think it may breach $4 and hit the stops, but I wanted to seal in a quick profit.

I’m familiar with iceberg orders on the CDN exchanges - looks like one on PDO at $18 on the bid - do you call these icebergs here as well or is it AMEX games of a different sort?

I can’t beleive investors would start buying X-Rite (XRIT) based on 1 press release that their liquidity has improved and they have more cash in the bank. They announced that they were going to ask for extended terms from their suppliers so that is where the money came from. They didn’t start being more profitable in one month. INVESTigate before blindly buying the BS a company puts out.
