IPSU? - you may want to see this.

A group that is a 10% owner who was selling and shorting IPSU in the low $20's last year here:

Has now been buying the hell out of the stock since May, including a $2.4 MILLION DOLLAR purchase 2 days ago.

You got a chance to pick up a +15-18% pop in the stock from when it was first offered up here. Sugar popped literally from that day as well. Take profits when and where you want, but here is something you may want to check out.

These are the recent buys that a 10% + owner in IPSU has been making since Sliders comments. They have been buying up into the $30's and just made one of their largest buys yet- just 2 days ago:

24-Jul-07 83,517 IPSU Purchase at $28.83 per share.
(Cost of $2,407,795)


That's a cool $2.4 MILLION SMACKERS. THIS buyer was a strong SHORTER of the stock last year down into the low $20 range.

Now look at their recent buying binge!

Someone is going to take IPSU private.

Who?

When?

Who knows.

50% short interest with no debt, a 33% return on equity and huge free cash flow. Nice volatility and a major short seller from last year who is now buying the living shit out of the stock. There's a game afoot! And it isn't hard to follow.

FOLLOW THE MONEY PEOPLE

If you don't know how to buy weakness and sell strength and you can't do your own due diligence and follow the money- via easily obtainable public info like I just linked for your lazy freeloading asses- I can suggest a couple of other threads you might check out <vbg>.

Ron

Here- here's some more info for you lazy bastards. You guys don't want to learn how to fish- you want the damn fish- caught, cleaned & deboned, cooked, seasoned and served up for your lazy incompetent asses on a silver platter too <vbg>

Here's who owns IPSU:

Follow the money. Lehman & Schultze are the top owners.

There's a game afoot- are you smart enough to figure it out?

I doubt it.

But here's the top holders anyway.
