Would You Invest?

[The Rabbi]

Would you invest in a company with the following characteristics:
-Stock price declined from $1.50 to present .62 a share
-Revenue down over 14% in last quarter
-Book value at .27/share
-Lost $8.7M last quarter
-Gross margins of -113%

Smart investors buy stocks that have declined and the books look bad.
Dumb investors buy stocks that have been rising and have great numbers.
Buy low, sell high is the only way to make real $ in the market. Mutual funds and buying the designer stocks is for suckers.
Remember, buy low and sell high.

Bankrupt investors follow your advice, catching a falling knife.
In this case, their lack of ability to generate any profit and dependence on gov't aid suggests they are not a viable company.

Sure, right Rabbi, real risk takers always buy the rising designer stocks!!
LOL.
Rabbi, you obviously know nothing about investing. You always look for the stocks that have fallen, fallen and fallen and then stopped.Only one way to go with those.
You never buy a rising stock because the odds are that it is overvalued, fluffed and trendy, and the capital outlays have been delayed.
If you did not know that buy low, sell high is the rule to investing please keep your $ at 1% in the bank.
Leave the wealth building to the real capitalists like us, the risk takers.

What country is the company in and what is their goal ?
I just bought a bunch at 40 cents, down from $2.18 but they got the go ahead on a big mining permit.
BTW. If it's a company murkistani I wouldn't touch it for a penny.

Thank god Rabbi is saving us from this..

The company makes batteries and "intelligent" power systems that are designed for renewable-energy and other projects.

ZBB had received a $1.3 million federal stimulus loan. The company is using the money for a factory renovation that officials say will triple its manufacturing capacity.

The company has about 30 full-time employees. It says the project will enable it to keep nearly a dozen workers on the job, and it hopes to hire about 80 new workers over time.

How many jobs did this money create?

Initially, it looks like it saved 15 jobs with potential to create 80 jobs once expansion is completed.
The Government is looking to save small businesses that are struggling or looking to expand job oportunities. This company looks like it fits the bill.

I would much rather invest my stimulus money in companies like this than use it for Republican style tax cuts and state run pork projects.

As usual, Rabbi is barking up the wrong tree

How does this differ from a "state run pork project"?
Remember Synfuels? Yet another winner of a gov't program. And those two twin titans of mortgage, Fannie/Freddie. Another great idea in gov't intervention.

Please, take all your retirement money and invest it in ZBB. The price is so low it must be a bargain. You'll clean up!

LOL. Out of Chicago eh.
Somebody send them a sidewayz bomber.

 

[DiamondDave]

NO
I stay away from bullshit stocks with prices way under $10 share
Mostly blue chips for me, college recruits and stocks

Too bad. Because YOU"VE ALREADY INVESTED!
Wis. factory hosting Obama got $1.3M federal loan - Yahoo! Finance
Go look up ZBB, that's the ticker.

What a fine use of stimulus money. This is what happens when gov't wants to pick winners and losers in the economy.

You are on the ball there Rabbi...

In an $800 billion Stimulus you come up with $1.3 million for a Wisconsin Company.

Got something against helping out small business? I guess you would have them all fail.

So Stimulus money was only supposed to go to companies that don't need it?

It's not the motherfucking government's responsibility... not clear enough for you??

If you still live in the 19th Century it is not.

Government does not exist for your personal responsibilities, whether you are Joe Schmoe average worker or corporate investor Jones... Government is not your mommy, your nanny, or your safety net... and because of stupid ignorant entitlement junkies such as you, our government is in horrible shape economically and we have a populace filled with people who shirk responsibility, expect everyone else to take care of their problems, and believe the world owes them something

I realize you missed the entire 20th Century. The US is now a modern society and does have a responsibility for the general welfare of its people. Like every other industrialized nation we provide a basic safety net of services to include food, housing and medical care for those who can't afford it.
Social Security has been in place for 75 years and Medicare since the 60s. A 21st century Government does not ignore the needs of its people

No... you and your ilk wish to change it that way so you don't have to be responsible for yourselves.... easier to leech off of people...

And lest we forget that you and many like you completely misinterpret ".. the general welfare of the United States" and you happen to leave those few ending words off, so that you can misrepresent what was written and meant

A real person does not ignore their own needs and does not believe they are the responsibility of someone else

I feel sorry for you that we can no longer return to the 1800s where everyone took care of themselves or died.

Since that time, the US has become the richest and most powerful nation in the history of mankind. To run such an economy, we need a workforce that is educated, in good health, satisfied with their living conditions and has a basic security net.

This is what is known as a middle class. A modern society has an obligation to take care of its people and ensure a basic standard of living is maintained. If it can't, it slips into third world status and is subject to revolution.

Hmmm... so I call for death now... and not voluntary donation to charities and voluntarily giving of yourself to help others.... oh wait, I don't... but that is your normal leap into the absurd...

We have become the richest and most powerful nation NOT because of entitlement junkie programs, but in spite of them

No, actually it doesn't. And even if it does that does not translate into "gov't has an obligation to do these things."
There were plenty of alternatives in the late 19th century, which showed the greatest outpouring of charity this country has known. How many hospitals were established? Orphanages? Soup kitchens? Universities? Libraries? All the result of private funding, all helping the poor in one way or another.
We don't see that much anymore because of confiscatory taxation and regulation policies and because gov't has squeezed out private charity.
Nutwinger, don't take this as a post directed at you since you are incapable of understanding it and responding appropriately.
