Hi Frank, long time since we talked. Are you still on hold with INT? Also, I bough some shares of MOM.V and I hope you are still expecting good things from this stock.
Finally, have you heard of IWEB as Tobin Smith has issued a strong buy on this stock.
Hope things are well with you and HAPPY THANKSGIVING.<

Hi stargazer, I am NOT buying any INT at this time, not that I think it is dead, but there are just better opportunities out there. I am disappointed that they put so much faith in riding Facebook's coattails anticipating a successful run up after the IPO. Many, including myself had hopes of this stock being a life changer when the spike one or was it two years back, but now dilution after dilution, private placement followed by lower priced private placement. Lots of money, 6 months back, obviously gone,, investments in startups when they have no revenue and hiring high priced ORTSBO execs while having minimum cash flow to pay their salaries. I guess the focus has been too much on user numbers instead of revenue and that goes for their big focus on entertainment as well Increased clicks to a freebee site does not necessarily translate into increased revenue. Having said that there has been a dramatic increase in Asian visits to the ORTSBO site, so I haven't given up hope and should I make some nice gains on other stocks in my portfolio, I will consider buying or if they give some guidance concerning future revenues.I have been a big supporter. so I suspect the little supporters have left the scene and it will be a tad difficult to win them back, while I can still be persuaded back  regardless of what I just stated. especially if the SHOW ME THE MONEY or TELL ME HOW THIS WILL MAKE MONEY. Happy Capitalism

Frank:

Do you think INT's price is attractive enough to buy back into the company, or do you feel it is dead money and it will only go lower. How is the financial situation and prospects of the company. 

 

hi liloptimist, I like those top two con test contenders. As for INT, I am extremely disappointed with them as of late. Timing is everything and they timed things very wrong with the planned spin off hoping to launch just after a successful Facebook IPO which was a disaster and dragged INT shares down as well. They make announcements but nothing by way of a revenue forecast. Just a bunch of free apps to attract numbers. I believe in the company but this will go lower until they convice us that it will be a moneymaker. In the meantime, I can see this stock dipping below 20 cents. I have held off buying as there no longer is a sense of urgency to get in otherwise miss out on any spin off dividend.WE NEED REVENUE NUMBERS AND REVENUE GROWTH FORECASTS>

Hi Frank, good blog on Gun Control, something needs to be done.  We are off to a good start in the Stock Challenge, let's keep it going.  What is going on with INT as it keeps going the wrong way?  As always appreciate your feedback.


Thanks

Hi liloptimist, I have not heard from Schiff and did not attend the meeting. I still think this will be a big winner but nothing is going to happen until they put all the pieces together, With the Facebook IPO flop there is no longer a sense of urgency to get things done. The good news is user numbers are growing rapidly for ORTSBO especially in USA and China. My guess is they are working on increasing revenues to release  something exciting to roll out ORTSBO. As I said before, keep a core position but I would not add just yet.If you are looking at a short term play, have a look at BGM. Canadian markets are closed Monday but Tuesday will be exciting for Barkerville in my opinion

Hi Frank, anything new on INT?  Schiff said he was going to the meeting and would give us a report, but so far nothing.  Would appreciate your feedeback.


Thanks

Thanks Frank, will hold for now and keep good thoughts. 

Hey liloptimist, A  bit of an improvement on INT today with the news update. I do however read into the June 14 meeting, presently that it will be more of a question and answer session as they are awaiting regulatory approval of listing and spinoff info material being provided to investors. The rise may be temporary fr now.. Again just my thoughts. I would not be in a hurry to chase it, especially if it moves close to .60 as profit taking will no doubt take place.

Thanks Frank, appreciate the info.

I would wait a wee bit longer liloptimist before making a move. The INT meeting date and the lack of revenue news as well as the Facebook IPO fizzle does not bode well for INT at this time and I still feel the meeting date will be posponed until the market improves and this could drift even lower and likely to go uo the minute after you or I sell, so this one is a hold and a buy at lower levels. I do like Mahdia Gold MGD on the CNSX but not sure how you buy this one in the USA. It has not fallen back during this bad junior market and will eventually get listed on the Venture. It is a prime takeover trget IMO. as is . KTN TSX Venture with resource numbers that will be released shortly and trading near its lows so it is a reasonably safe spec bet as is Golden Goliath which I believe is at rock bottom.

Hi Frank, INT continues to go the wrong way so just wondering if there is a low priced stock you have strong feelings for now.  Appreciate any input.

Hi liloptimist. Very undervalued IMO.

Hi Frank, added some shares of INT to my portfolio today.  Hope it was a wise move.

You are in the top ten and were number one for a short time. I am not familiar with Toby Smith

Thanks for the alert Frank on PJX.V, will add some shares to my A/C.  Have you followed any of the picks by Tobin Smith, NBT Equities Research?  My picks this month are two of his recommendations.  Will see how they work out.

Hi liloptimist, Buying some shares is OK on this one, as I have bought some but not a whole bunch as yet. I like the fact that they are partnered with TEVA and the fact that antibiotics have gotten out of control and this companies product being introduced in pet foods will be one of the first out iof the gate with an alternative to antibiotics. Whether it will spike in May to be a winner is just me rolling the dice and actually is probably a longer term play. On the other hand keep your eye on PJX TSX.V  I like this one but it trades infrequently so do not try to sell in a hurry.. I will be meeting with the CEO and CFO soon to discuss their upcoming plans for the season.If this turns out to be a SULLIVAN it will be a multi-bagger.

Hi Frank, bought some shares today of your May pick, CFR.V.  Not sure why but I figure if you like it I will give it a try. Hope it is good for both of us.

I think because of the past dramatic moves in INT up and down, resulting in losses for so many investors, and causing some that had made money to give up previous gains, it will take a lot to restore investor confidence to move INT higher in my opinion.  

Hi Liloptimist, Any Pinnacle member with positive results in this month's contest deserves full marks. As for INT, with a proposed stock dividend in the works there should have been a rise in the price by this time but it has been a reverse.situation. Right now a positive announcement would probably fall on deaf ears.Timing is everything and this does not appear to be the right time. In this market it would take a monster of a news release. I am sure the company knows that and will line a few things up and wait for markets to turn more positive first. I would say, if you plan to add more, wait for some further weakness as the short term gain prospects are more likely a month or more further away. Just my opinion.

Hi Frank, do you think May will bring some positive results for INT?  Sure do need some good news.  Hope all is well with you.

Hi liloptimist, I do think NOW is the time to add to your position. Alexa numbers are improving in a dramatic way which will reflect in higher INT user numbers. They are probably holding back on abnouncements until later on in the month and closer to the special meeting date

Hi Frank, I never bought any shares of GWG, but I do have shares of MLG.To.  Do you have any info on this stock?  I am keeping the faith on INT.V but I hope it bottoms out soon.  Hoping for better days soon.

Hi liloptimist, How is your GWG doing. I see there ius a conference call slated for April 11. As for INT,I would still wait just a wee bit longer before adding more. This of course is just my opinion and what I how I am planning to play it.

Hi liloptimist, My guess was correct in that many investors mistakenly believed March 30 was the stock dividend record date for INT and are now moving on. I feel we may see a bit more weakness into early next week and I will look at buying more in the low 50's. The latter part of April should see a dramatic recovery as people will again revisit the dividend issue. This is just my opinion of course.

Hi liloptimist, Further to your question about GWG, I am not that familiar with it. In the REE space, I prefer Matamec MAT which has a lot less shares outstanding. GWG has almost 400 million shares.out there which makes it that much more difficult to move up the price. That is one problem with INT. Last spring a run up was easier as there were not a lot of shares out there but now with warrants being exercised and new shares flooding the market it takes a lot of good news and trading to move the price higher.

Hi liloptimist, I would hold off buying more just yet as many assumed the date of record dividend date was imminent but May looks more likely so investors are in no hurry to add more and may be selling so I can see this trending lower barring exciting news, You may be able to ad more in the mid fifties or lower. I have been setting up a basket of junior gold specs hoping to turn a profit and add more INT shares later, but holding a core position in INT. My basket is ZJG TSX, CSI TSX, ATN TSX, GPD TSX,KTN TSX.V GWY TSX.V I have a core holding in PJX TSX.V and GNG TSX.V and have been adding a spec on the CNSX. called Mahdia Gold MGD. This stock could move up vey quickly once they close their PP and also should soon trade on the TSX.V with Cannacord pulling some strings.Risk are higher with this one but so are the potential rewarsds. Read my blogs and research the Omai mine in Guyana, It may be tricky for an American to buy stocks on this exchange. I have to place orders through a broker so not easy for me either.

Hi Frank, would this be a good time to buy more shares of INT.V, or is there some other stock you think would be a better buy right now.  I am looking at GWG.V.  Your input is always appreciated.

Nobody is more disappointed than me.and I think a lot of investors have become impatient with time dragging on with this stock dividend and reverse stock takeover to get ORTSBO a listing. I think I would have handled it much differently as this has killed a lot of momentum. I do still maintain my core position
