Random thoughts from a new investor... no hype... honest!Remarkable how many posts there are here, when there has been no change in the little bit that is known.
1. Edgewater is a junior tech company with a very interesting technology and some patents that is finally getting some sales and market attention. I'm in IT... I deal with public access Wi-Fi as part of my job every day... including high density areas which can have as few as a few dozen users to 5,000-10,000 for some events. Wi-Fi, in particular free public Wi-Fi, is a PITA. An AP that is able to effectively handle a higher number of users will drastically reduce the TCO of a network. Having only seen these guys last week when it popped, I'm only starting to research it in a major way, but certainly like the idea! And yes, I'm in one of the verticals their marketting video mentions ;)
2. This is the venture exchange... ANYTHING here can go up and down like a yoyo... some careful DD (or blind luck!) can result in some great profit, but is by default high risk. If you're investing money you can't afford to lose, you're playing with fire! The little bit I invested here was profit from a speculative foray in another venture that will likely do well long term that I got into… and out of… based on NRs, BBs, comp models and guess work. -> Blind luck.
3. There have been a few NRs and articles recently which caused this stock to close above $0.10 for the first time since 2012... Nothing new since. And likely won't be for another few weeks, maybe months. If you're buying (or selling!) based on volumes, posts or computer models you're running a massive risk. Don't rely on computers, they're no substitute for research! I won’t be heartbroken if it goes down in the next few weeks; I didn’t buy much and beat the high anyway. If DD on the tech continues to pan out once the price levels out will probably dump something that isn’t performing and buy more.
4. Q4 results will likely be disappointing/bad. Their financials don't paint a rosy picture so far, which is why the stock was so low in the first place, and realistically, still is. Q1 results may well look very different, but won't be out for months. Honestly, I’m happy to sit on what I bought and/or buy more until I see what 2015 numbers look like. While many tech companies fail, Wi-Fi is hot right now, and there will be lots of vendor consolidation in the next few years. I’d be delighted if I can pick up 5000, 10000, 100000, of something for pennies that ends up getting bought out at $$$ in the next few years. It’s highly unlikely that I’d put that kind of money into ANY venture stock, but it’s nice to dream!
5. Those that got in at .025 are lucky buggers that should all donate their stock to me ;) See line above ;)
To those pumping the stock, seriously, let it be! It's out there! Constant reposts of the same stuff, hype and speculation about the SP shooting up exponentially in the next few weeks are likely scaring away serious investors at this point, assuming there are any serious investors wading through the mess this BB is turning into. Any failure to deliver is just making it more likely that a penny twitch in the stock will cause a mass exodus and make it harder for the stock to reach its full potential if there IS a good news story on the horizon! I find it hard to believe that SH boards could have a major impact on a SP, but from watching posts vs market… seems it actually does…
To those dumping and fear mongering... please... at least wait a few days after shamelessly whoring a stock before crapping on it... or use a different account to do it! Oh, and I’d be happy to suggest a few stocks that are in desperate need of pumping if you’re looking for something to keep you busy! Lol
Just my opinions, new to all this, happy to learn, and constructive criticism is welcome. Do your DD, GL and GN.
