WE INTERRUPT YOUR NORMAL READING FOR AN IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT
Hey all, I have to put that headline on there because my posts are not all that important, but I want you to read this one.
I want to say something those of you who are questioning Byron and Macker about whether they are just passing on info from one or the other. I get from Byron's message that this has been happening, maybe in private messages to Byron and/or to Macker.
When I started investing in DGIV a couple of months ago I did it on the basis of my own DD. Then I began reading what Byron was saying and, frankly, kept it in mind but did not accept it on face value because I have been burned before on other stocks by hype. Little by little, I began to see that the things that Byron was speculating about were actually happening, one by one. It was not hype. I went back and re-read DGIV's releases, watched Jimmy's video on the web site, and realized that there was a whole lot of subtle information on there that I had not picked up on, but that Byron had. So my credibility in Byron kept increasing.
Then I began reading about Mark C's, Rico's, and other's meetings with Jimmy Chin, and everything was lining up. The big picture was starting to reveal itself, little by little. Not that it wasn't there all the time, but DGIV is such a large and complex operation that it is hard to assimilate it all at once.
So a couple of weeks ago I was at the point of understanding as much as I could of the big picture, but it still bothered me a bit that Byron might not be real. So I called him and spoke with him, not just once but several times -- ask him, he'll tell you how many times I woke him up! (Sorry, Byron, I felt terrible). I found out he is very real, an MD, a workaholic (probably), an astute investor, and yet a down to earth, humble, and God-fearing man (I assume Moslem, although we have not spoken about this).
OK, so I believed Byron. But still that is only one guy, so then I had my DD (have made mistakes before though), other's meetings with CHin and their own DD (second source, that is good), and Byron. But I still had doubts. Rememeber, I am a rocket guy, and we take risks but we don't take stupid risks or a lot of chances -- I did not want an O-ring failure. I have posted before about a lot of other things that I looked at, buy back program, etc, but this is not my point now.
My point is that along comes a guy named Macker, and he starts posting similar, but not exactly the same, things as Byron. It took me two days to figure this out, but when I did I began telling every to GO BACK AND READ EVERY ONE OF MACKER'S POSTS. I then began to message him privately, and he graciously provided me his phone numnber. I began calling him (to my knowledge, though have yet to wake him up), and even did some DD on HIS company to make sure he was legit. He not only was legit, but shared with me his own DD, which he has posted here, and it was COMPLETELY INDEPENDENT OF BYRON!! AND LIKE BYRON'S EVERYTHING HE SPECULATED WOULD HAPPEN HAVE HAPPENED!!
That did it for me. I now had my own (lame at times) DD, that of others, an important source (Byron), and a confirming indepenent source (Macker). I won't go into details as to how I knew they were independent, just suffice it to say that Macker had come to some conclusions that Byron had not and vice versa.
So now here I was, just an investor like everyone else here, with no connections to the company, never even having spoken to Chin like some of you, but with the opportunity to share DD with others in a similar vein but who had done much more DD than I had. And like me they were not insiders, were not PR people, and had put their MONEY WHERE THEIR MOUTH WAS. In fact, they had invested much more than I had.
So I did what I never thought I would do -- I sold off the majority of my holding in Orbital Sciences, a company I know, understand, and believe in, and put it all in DGIV! Because although ORBI might be a 2 bagger over the next year, DGIV is a rocketship to the moon and beyond. I'm not saying how high it will go, I will let others speculate.
So I will end here this long and tedious post. But I want everyone to know that Byron and Macher are independent from each other and from the company! That is very important. (So am I, but then nobody really cares about that :-)
OK, YOU MAY RESUME YOUR NORMAL READING |
