Auric, At least you're good for comic relief. I still can't stop laughing about post #709. Here it is in it's entirety:
"It's a TRAVesty. You drew 1st blood. 78,700 at $21. Your capital is now fully at risk as is LARK's. With $312,340 of ill-gotten gains from the abuse of CNS, the NSCC has been notified. NASD and SEC next TRAV. Could be time for a trading halt, babee.
You been takin lessons from Cere and Ed?
Now everybody see, this is how cheaters prosper in the short run. As I've said, you're watching the last act of a depraved man. Don't be putting this money offshore TRAV, we'll be watching." ***END Auric's post***>>> please continue.................
Auric, Once again, YOU LOST and isn't it a pain? Obviously, what we witnessed in the last few minutes of trading on Friday was called a "buy-in." Since you're not nearly as informed as you'd like many readers to believe, I suggest you go back about 3 days and read my posts about what happens when a short must deliver certificates he doesn't have.
Do you remember the term, "block bid" and the requirement to guarantee delivery of certificates? Well, who do you think was likely to be the only firm on the street who could GUARANTEE delivery of nearly 80,000 shares (including certificates)? It wasn't your firm was it, Auric? And yes, this often requires a premium be paid for such a transaction! Unfortunately, it wasn't as high as I'd hoped, but it's still a premium! Auric, there's no need for Mr. Travis to run and hide with this premium payment. You see, it's something you're probably unfamiliar with, but it's called........legitimate business.
In post #662, you state, "Greg, we're not like the others, we're your friends. When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. Notice that there are now 14 MM's involved."
Auric, I hate to tell you, but YOU'RE NOT A PRO! You may dream of being a "pro" and someday in the distant future you may even succeed, but "weird" was the correct word. I've already addressed my feeling about your first sentence and the last sentence is only "smoke & mirrors" and you know it!
Auric, FYI, the war goes on, but this battle is over. Better luck next time!
By the way Auric, In post #703 you state, "Please provide any Bre-X posts that are being confused with the true Ag". My question is, have you been demoted to Silverfinger? The boss must be getting tough on those who can't effectively short a stock. I'll bet he doesn't like watching the firm's trading deck dwindle. Ag = Silver ;-) You have my sympathy.
Have a great weekend!
Best of Luck, Greg
PS. TexasDude, Instead of the comparison of share price between AENG and OE, it may be better to compare market cap.....as in outstanding shares times the market value of each share. AENG has 21 million shares outstanding and OE has 323 million. If you do the math, you will see that OE is valued much higher than AENG. |
