Usually what that means for companies that are on regular exchanges is that they failed to file all the paperwork with SEC.  \nITEK is also late so it filed NT K10 which is getting an extension to file the paperwork.  To let the traders know that the company is late with paperwork letter E was added to the end of the tick.\nIn case with ITEK read this\nhttp://www.pinksheets.com/quote/news.jsp?url=fis_story.asp%3Ftextpath%3D%5C2006%5C04%5C03%5CEDGARNews_0000950134-06-0065460001084182.html%26clientid%3D168%26provider%3DEDGARnews&symbol=ITEKE\n\nAleks

Yes, RIO split 2 for 1 on 07JUN06, but so what? What is the question? If you held 1000 shares on June 6, you now own 2000 shares worth the same amount of money. (Actually a little less).\n\nSplits mean nothing, they are just deigned to improve liquidity.

Coach has maxed itself out @ almost $40.00 per share and will never offer you much of a return unless it plummets back down to it's foundation price.  \n\nIt is too high and was only a productive purchase to those smart enough to get in on the ground floor.  \n\nIt is rated at an 8,  a great stock to own but as far as it going up enough to make you money...  I don't see it happening.  It wont ever become an Abercrombie or an american eagle.  I don't think so anyway...  always go with your gut!  I would hate to be the deciding factor and you not do something you should have done. \n\nCheck out Psun...  It just split and is still cheap!

It may be a form of bait and switch! I felt it was fishy when I saw the internet thing last night! You might get answers from lawyers, but I think they just stepped into it! The advertised stuff they couldn't produce at that price! They knew what they were doing. I have a degree in business and I think they are on shakey ground!

Seems like AMTD ( ameritrade is giving out 6$ dividens.) Watch and see what happens to its price in the coming days. \n\nIf I were to guess I would say the price would fall.

It is not wise to invest all your portfolio in just one stock.\n\nI can advise you.

Nope.  That is the risk you take with the market and using brokerage firms to manage your hard earned money.  All of the paperwork and even your quarterly statement indicated that these investments were no guaranteed, insured and could lose value.  It is a hard pill to swallow, but you are not alone.  The great thing is that you get to pay these crooks to lose your money!  Sorry,.

Whoah!  Hold the bus!  The advice that includes gregarious reactionaries and traders like Cramer or commodities needs to be held off with the proverbial "ten-foot pole."\n\nGo to CNN Money, Motley Fool, MSN Money, Netscape Investing etc. which will give you a clear, comparatively safe starter advice.  Ask your broker (I recommend Scottrade, sharebuilder, or schwab) about some Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) like Diamonds or Spydrs or the like--these let you buy a cheap sampling of the Dow Jones Industrials or the Standard & Poors 500, comparatively safe but still very good, profitable companies.  They are about as sexy as steak and potatoes, but they are as substantial as steak and potatoes.  \n\nAs for individual companies, first--does it make a profit?  As for any other features, news, or events, first, does it make a profit?  Second, does it have a triple-digit price to earnings ratio?  Then there are too many people thinking it will be big and it won't likely be big enough to please them all.  If you divide the profit by number of shares (most stock sites will give this information for free, usually doing the arithmetic for you), and the result is higher than 30-something, stay away.  If the number is a negative number, go back to the other rule, first, does it make a profit.

It's a lottery type thing. Not on the shores of the US--that should cause you some concern. Their website says you get your return on investment in two years.

The term "short squeeze" refers to the pressure on short sellers to cover their positions as a result of sharp price increases or difficulty in borrowing the security the sellers are short. The rush by short sellers to cover produces additional upward pressure on the price of the stock, which then can trigger a short squeeze. If the stock goes up instead, the need to lessen losses can trigger the buying of stock.\n\nIn other words, the squeeze trigger refers to the way in which short-sellers (people who have "borrowed" stocks from brokers for a certain amount of time...) will have to buy back the stock from the open market so they do not lose money.  It usually happens for small-cap stocks.\nSo, if the trader is "short" the stock that he borrowed for twenty-four cents and he can buy shares back for ten cents, then he has made fourteen cents a share when it is time to give it back to whomever he borrowed it from.  The problem comes in when the stock goes up and not down and, of course, they would like to avoid that if they are short.  If the majority of short-sellers bought at twenty cents, that can be called the "squeeze trigger" (simplified, not counting commisions, premiums, etc.).  Suppose the stock climbs to twenty-one cents...now, they have to buy the stock back as fast as they can in order to "cover" their positions with their brokers because they are losing money with every up-tick in the price.  With all those guys buying at twenty cents or better, the stock price can jump through the roof all of a sudden one day ("spikes"...), then trades back down to its normal level.  If you do not know the trigger, you may not know what and when to expect it.  But there are sites online where you can find the squeeze triggers of 15,000 stocks.\nThe best advice is to not play that game because those guys are good at it and they take their chances with having a "short" go "long" (forced to buy...) on them.  It is a chance they have to take.\nYou, on the other hand, should not worry about it.  The best thing you can do is to set your sell point when you get into a stock if you are a trader.  If you are an investor, forget about it altogether. If you are going to trade the stock, decide at which percentage you want to get out, set your open order (Limit Order...) to that level and then leave it alone.  Perhaps your "sell" will be triggered itself in this frenzy of buying that occurs and you will get lucky that way.  Know when you want to sell and it is really that simple.\nAs far as the stock itself, always look for well-led companies with an interesting and innovative product.  If the product is something you can imagine and believe in, then stay in it.  If not, get out.  Ask yourself, what does LVTI do, exactly?

I would stay away from penny stocks. This stock is at a 52 week low for a reason. Also, penny stocks can be manipulated easily with pump and dump schemes.\n\nYou're better off putting your money in other transportation stocks like JB HUNT or Fed Ex. Both are excellent companies.

There is not enough information in your question to determine what it is you are trying to find out.\n\nDo you mean to get your $30 back? If it is a dividend of $3 once a year then you would get your money back after ten years.

Let me get this straight, you have an investor who will send you money if you send him money first? Is that what you are saying? If so, DON'T DO IT. Scam in progress.

YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING !!!   No one should have more than 5 % of their total investments in any one stock.   If you purchased it at $ .50 (total investment = $ 5,000 ), wait til it hits $ 1.00 and then sell off half.  You now have all of your investment back and no matter what happens,  you are safe.  If it goes to $2.00,  sell off another half.    Then just sit back and hope that it goes to $ 10 and splits.  In a few years, you could have 10,000 shares worth $ 100,000 but, in the meantime, you have had no sleepless nights worrying about it.

If it was even partially true it would be oversubscribed to the point of stupidity ... the institutional investors would be kicking their doors in - just have a look at what the interest rate would be.\n\nAs has been said, if it sounds too good to be true then it probably is.  If you still are interested read their terms and conditions VERY VERY VERY carefully.  Look for any "buts", "ifs", "at our discretion" and "subject to" type statements ... I'm betting that you wont see your cash again or the $6000.\n\nSorry but I can't see how these schemes can exist in a real economic system.  High rewards are only gained through high risk.

It means that upon your demand, the company has 45 days in which to include the shares issuable upon exercise of your warrant in a registration statement - which enables you to sell the shares (if you want to). It's fairly common for there to be a penalty if the company is unable to file a registration statement within the specified time period.\n\nIssuing new shares would be dilutive; but, the shares that were issuable should have been factored into diluted EPS\n\nTo exercise the warrant, there should be a form to exercise. If you don't have it, contact the company's investor relations department
