*AV* --Personal to Cindy --ALYD
Would it be impertinent on my part to ask for today's log on ALYD, if it is available? It closed on a Bid/Ask of 11.875/12.125 but last trade was at 11.375....(HMMMM!!!!!) I would very much like to see how this may have happened <g>***:)
Monique-I hopw you are not mad about getting out (post #3631 or 3642). Stock is hopefully lower than your sale point and may be worth investing in again.
To All-I will not hype this stock but you all should keep an eye on it for awhile and if you feel comfortable, let's talk about it. This company does have good potential as J. Mitchell has stated and, suffice to say, most of his inferences are correct.
One little piece of shared data here. Look at when CRYSF was mentioned on this thread. The company went IPO on 1/30 or 1/31 with a small float of stock. A poster to this thread posted a $7 price which was not really accurate. IPO was at $7 but it opened closer to $11 and made a run to $14.75 ask. Float was close to 3 million shares for this Year 2000 stock from an underwriter which has done a limited amount of public stock offerings last year. Look at the trading history of this stock over the last 3-4 days and the volumes this stock has traded. Money was being made and lost on that stock with very little information available on the company. The stock has not settled down yet and needs a little more time to run its course. Once it does, I beleive some of the new money in CRYSF will migrate toward ALYD, enough to move ALYD up to 15 or more.
ALYD has its 5 beta tests with Fortune 500 companies, and its results will be made known soon. The results are overdue since it was stated, "end of January". They are late, for better or for worse, and will be released when they are released.
The YR2000 hype is not over yet and we have seen the rise and fall of YR2000 companies like ACLY,CRYSF,ZITL,VIAS,CSGI, etal., yet ALYD remains level. Jeff mentioned the 2.5 million share dump last fall, the turmoil that may have caused, and also mentioned the addition of new people (probably to meeting anticipated customer requirements). You heard me mention (CRUS) on which side of the curve and whether you are buy on the downside or the upside of that curve.
On Jan 14th, ALYD was brought to this thread by me. Two weeks later a 20% gain was available but I did not take it (therefore it does not count). The price is 10.125(list) but on another glance, this will be raised to 10.25 even though Everyone knows I was buying down on this stock into the mid 9s. I am averaged well (close to 9.75) and probably have the best position on this thread, but judgement price is 10 1/4.
The CRYSF IPO (initial public offering) was one part of my experiment but only a minor part. Check the volume today and its price. This stock is competitively priced with ALYD with at least 6 times the daily trade volume. These guys in CRYSF will transition over to ALYD when they grow tired of the stagnation or the lack of upward movement. They will wreak havoc on the price of ALYD as they discover this more stable YR2000 company. They will speculate a great deal on the upcoming ALYD announcements on the Beta tests. They will create a market here. This market will be diluted slightly by the other companies mentioned in the same YR2000 breath (ZITL,VIAS,ACLY). These YR2000 companies have had their runs up and down. It can be argued whether or not CSGI has experienced this (a comment I must leave for Shawn to answer since he is the expert on CSGI), but most certainly a solid company like ALYD has not seen its fair share of the upward roller coaster ride associated with YR2000 stocks. Instead, they are plodding along and letting nature take its course. Who knows, if CSGI has not done its roller coaster yet, it may also be a beneficiary of this movement of funds.
I will leave everyone with these final comments:
1. One point does not make a straight line. Therefore more experimental work needs to be performed by myself. 2. I subtlely gave warning, adequate notification and possible instructions to those invested in ALYD that may have been a little leery about the stock (exit point if they were so inclined) but did not want to encourage or discourage them concerning their holdings. 3. I think I know why the last trade was at 11.375 even though B/A was higher. Cindy will hopefully confirm it for everyone. (who knows, it might be an error for all we know??) 4. Please do not take this long winded essay as my attempt to hype this stock and for you to all herd out to buy this stock. Those that invested in ALYD this first go around, should be the only ones who should make a decision for themselves. Those that felt ALYD was not a sound investment originally, please do not let this sway you into a blind purchase (really!!!) 5. I have tried to be open and honest with everyone and I have tried to share as much as possible with you in the spirit of friendship and honesty. 6. You all know my relative portfolio (as much as I felt comfortable sharing) and know I stand to make a great deal of $$$ when ALYD runs up. But please be advised that even though I truly beleive this is a quality company, I am a novice in this field. 7. I am still invested in ALYD and I beleive a great deal of non company related stuff will affect the price of this stock prior to the real value of this company being known. I am content to wait for this to happen and do not want anyone's funds tied up expecting a monumental ride to glory nor do I want anyone to suffer in what looks to be the beginning of a nice roller coaster ride.
