here we go with the chest pounding again...he gets a few hundred idiots to buy a stock that trades a couple hundred thousand shares a day....it goes up 10% and we'll never hear the end of it.....wish we'd hear more about NYX @ 170 and the reasoning behind that call!!
he is at least trying. quit bringing up the NYX call..that was 2 years ago...get over it...
Greg pumping this all over the yahoo boards. Makes you wonder what his intentions are, as well as the motives on this site. Is he doing another one of his pump and dumps. I guess we will see.
yep it was 2 years ago and it's still yet to get over 30 bucks, nice call!!
ahh yes, 3 brokerages upgraded DDSS, just the kind of thing I like to stay away from, my only question would be, do they get a trip to Hawaii or or Australia for the pumping?
By reading the company profile on Yahoo I was able to find out this company used to go by the name CRAP, Inc.
