Interesting ideas, but why not keep it simple,logical, common sensical?
I don't see any "big money" moving one way or the other with the stock. The volume is, IMO, relatively small for ZULU and ESVS. The price movements are not that significant in the short term. And, ZULU's stock has hovered around the .40 to .50 range forever, so what is the big deal about a .33 or .35 price in the short term. Look at how the stock has been manipulated with small sell orders, for example.
IMO, the reason there is no "big money" going one way or the other is because China International "owns" both companies, through NetVest. The rest of us are along for the ride.
ESVS is not going to be promoting the heck out of its negotiations with ZULU, and taking ZULU personnel, without consummating some sort of deal with Zulu. While stranger things can happen, this would be pretty stupid for both companies, a waste of time generating goodwill for a name and a company, misleading to new ad customers, and adding more confusion and anxiety to a situation with is overwhelmed by too many transitions already over the last 3 months.
The swings in stock are due, IMHO, to various blocks of stockholders (not "Big Money") guessing what is going on with the stock. Look how erratic ESVS has been in the last week. Somewhat higher volume brought a relatively larger price drop over 2 days in the last week, then an equally higher volume brings the price back up. I don't see any definitive trend, other than the fact that both ZULU and ESVS are building up to something really, really big.
As far as the hair-splitting over a merger vs. combination, after some more thought and reading all the Yahoo and SI posts, etc., etc., it may very well be that a third player is out there which will be part of a larger venture. That "new entity" could have multiple players couldn't it.
Something big is in the works. There is a lot of firepower on the management team, in a crackerjack of a market place, with a company (albeit having a ragged history) that has the infrastructure already set up for a much broader venture into internet advertising.
I can't understand one of the writers saying (I don't recall whom) that he was more contented last year than now about ZULU. PLEASE, GIVE ME A BREAK. I almost died laughing (no offense to him or her). I have been around since November, and we have gone from a penny ante (no pun intended), two bit company with lofty ideals but no way of realizing those ideals, to a super management team in an industry which is even hotter than projected last fall, with a very concrete mechanism for getting that much desired NASDA listing.
I don't mean to sound like a hypster. But, last year I figured this might be a good short term stock for a pop, but with time I am becoming more and more convinced that this may turn out to be our dream long term penny stock investment.
Everyone, have a great weekend. I am looking forward to next week's activities with ZULU and ESVS. The mystery keeps unfolding before our very eyes. |
