Hi everyone:
"There is a great sense of calm and confidence in PNLK."
Indeed, I believe the 'calmness' come mainly from the fact that PNL's management has come through time and time again with surprising news. If this is a lesser company with a mediocre management of questionable status in the industry, it probably will not survive the mishap created by the less than ideal Version 1 Webtool that started the down draft to less than $1.00. We (long-term investors) are very fortunate that PNL's management has the fortitude, tenacity, and well-established connections and resources to overcome this major setback. Like a child who falls down when learning how to walk, he/she refuses to give up and get back up for another try. And each time the child gets back up to try again, it gets better and better as walking. And before long, we will soon see our child learning how to run…
Although last year stampede to $8.00 was due to hype, it was a hype that held the possibility of real substance. Many saw the future potential that we are all seeing now. Many agreed that the concept was excellent provided that the Webtool Version 1 could deliver. IMHO, if Version 1 was as good as PNL's management wanted it to be, we might not see the down draft to $1.00. A decent marketing campaign would have started and subscribers would find the Webtool more useful to use. Alas, this was not the case. The disappointment in Version 1 started the reversal of fortune for many investors. The promise of the V2 was what kept most of the original long-term investors to hold on for the possible turn-around. Six weeks to V2 became months… and the ensuing waiting created quite a riot across all the PNLK's threads in cyberspace. Finally, although much better than V1, V2 was good enough to attract attention from some major industry players to form strategic alliances with PNL but not enough to create en masse sign-up.
Again, like a child who get better as walking every times he/she gets back up, PNL's management starts working on building the support infrastructure to complement the Webtool. Muscles are being built around the legs and the walking become much easier each time. With Chamber of Commerce signing up down the line (hopefully), and a possible banking alliance to be announced later on (yet to be seen), the muscles seem to be developing quite well. And once V3 is completed, the child will stop falling. Walking will become second nature and the next step is to learn to walk a little faster. The IBE conference in April may be a lesson in speed walking that may graduate to jogging. And when we start seeing subscribers sign-up en masse because the formula: V3 + Support Infrastructure + Subscribers = Success becomes reality, this child may be on his/her way to learning how to run a marathon…
Now, with so much progresses to-date after the setback of V1, no wonder we are experiencing calmness at this moment. Most of the dissidents have probably sold out long ago either from the last spike-up or year-end tax selling. Some may even be convinced that an imminent turn-around is in the corner. Therefore, it is not surprising to me that this thread has become more friendly, light-hearted, and cordial among posters who used to be enemies during the confusing era many months ago…
OK, ladies and gentlemen, fasten your seatbelt. If you are the short-term players with preset target get out point, better program your exit point with your broker now. And if you are the high rollers who want to ride this bull all the way, better double check your buckle on your seatbelt to make sure it is secured. Lastly, if you are the hybrid kind (holding core and trading positions) make sure you don't confuse yourself during the ride. You may inadvertently sell your core position by mistake and holding on to your trading position before you know what hit you. <g>
Well then, enough said... GOOD LUCK TO US ALL! May the March Madness begins....
Again, all the above is my opinion only.
Remember everyone, To Each His Own
And
Prosperity to ALL! |
