I get it, I've gotten frustrated with some of the missed timelines. But now that we have a redomicile vote date, I'm back to bullish. It made sense to wait until then to announce the funding, as we're pretty much back to where we were last week.

I think of it like this: On Friday, we were still sitting around waiting on hearing something, anything, about what's next, with a stock price in the mid-4s. Fast forward to today, and now we have a redomicile vote date AND an extra $61M cash. And the stock price is the same.

If you liked the price last week, you love it today. Seems like a good time to buy more.

To each their own, but this doesn't make a lot of sense to me. f your goal is to double your money, there are waaaaay more established companies to do that with.

This one has always been risky, but with the potential payout of being a 10x, 20x, 50x, etc. type of stock. And that possibility is becoming more and more visible. I won't knock anyone for taking profits, but there aren't a ton of stocks you can get into right now that have this type of potential. It's too unique of a situation to settle for ordinary profits, IMO.

They've already increased it from $50M to $61.2M, due to "investor demand"

Well if it were to pay salaries or something, then I’d be pissed too. But they have enough for that already, as well as the move to Austin.

That tells me this is for something bigger that they couldn’t announce until the redomicile was more certain, such as the sudden need to build a bunch of hyperions. Or at least that’s what I’m going to tell myself…

Well I read the terms and stand corrected. I thought I previously read that voting rights did not transfer.

Nevertheless, anyone with shares on loan can recall them prior to Sept. 11th and get voting rights back :cheers:

Says the guy who still only shows up when NBIS has a red day to gloat. Which is even odder considering it’s up nearly 10x from when you exited.

Maybe just say you were wrong rather than rooting against it (and thus rooting against many posters on this board) just for some weird internet credibility. :dunno:

It sounds like you've got about $40k earmarked for this, so why not $20k in each?

I didn't listen to the call. It could be order delays, but I think there are better opportunities so I'm not waiting around.
Thanks :cheers:

I'm still undecided and need to go back and listen to the call, but your perspective is always appreciated!
Do we still like this as a long-term play or are we cutting bait here?

I like the tour, but do we have any confirmation that anyone accepted the invite?

I'm on Fidelity and still have about 26k shares on loan that someone took out last month. Earned me about $150 (interest rate has only been around 3%) for July. I just reinvest it into additional shares.

So what are we looking at?

Sale in Game 1

And then two bullpen games?
Yep. It's an unserious rotation for an unserious organization.
I don't know why anyone expected differently. AA has never made a big deal at the deadline, even a single time. Yet every year, we anxiously wait for it to happen.

Even before AA, when was the last time the Braves went out and got someone? Michael Bourn? Tex?

Much less for both. I still get into the games when they're happening, but don't think much about it as soon as it's over.

I was never a big NFL fan for the same reasons that I'm now less of a CFB/LSU fan.

We have been told that the US government has interest in a GEIC an investment and all these things.

This is nothing but a press release of the company begging for the US to have an interest in this - it actually disappoints me ....
I feel the same way. And to ask for it in a press release? Sounds like we don't even have a foot in the door.

Don’t know why this wouldn’t be seen as a positive as it validates the US Govt is focusing on graphene as a critical material.
I read it to say that HG is asking the US Gov to recognize it as a critical material, not that they have already done so. Maybe we're getting a negative reaction b/c it was assumed we were a little further down the road with the government at this point?
It’s been awhile since we’ve seen Paul. Will he make a thread appearance today?
