der ungekrönte Splitt-Weltmeister aller weltweiten Börsen sein  :-(((.

Dagegen ist GBSN ein top seriöses Unternehmen.  

für die interessante Zusammenstellung. Hatte die (in dieser Fülle) gar nicht mehr so auf dem Schirm.

Da wirste ja blind beim hinsehen.  

von 1,27 auf 3,80
DRYS überrascht die Anleger wie die shorts immer wieder durch seine Unberechenbarkeit.
Auf der einen Seit eine fast 100% Enteignung über die extreme Verwässerung.
Auf der anderen Seit wächst die Flotte stetig und es wird Firmenvermögen geschaffen ohne ende.
Jetzt sind zwar unzählige Klagen ansässig, dürften aber keinerlei Erfolg haben da der Rechtsstand der Marschal-Inseln zum tragen kommt und vor allen Dingen schützt kein Gesetz der Welt vor freiwilligen Finanziellen Suizid. Der CEO hat immer Pflichtbewusst und korrekt im Vorfeld informiert und auch die Erlöse entsprechend den Ansagen ins Unternehmen gesteckt.
Dass das natürlich jedes mal ein Schlachtfest für die Shorts ist, ist klar.
Aber es stellt sich nun auch die Frage, was kommt jetzt !?
Nachdem die letzte KE kaum noch am Markt zu platzieren war und ist, könnte man auch durch den Unmut der Anleger das Gedankenspiel spielen, das die ständigen Splits beendet sind und der gute Herr erst mal Ruhe einkehren lässt, denn am Markt ist mit Sicherheit kaum noch eine weitere KE Sinnvoll zu platzieren und würde nur noch mehr Unmut und Klagen auf sich ziehen. Obwohl unser George in diesem Umfeld schon recht abgehärtet ist und sich keinerlei Schuld bewusst ist.

Aber der Freitag hat wiedermal gezeigt wie extrem man mit dieser Aktie Geld verdienen kann.
Schaut man auf den Chart, erkennt man schnell, das man hier mit Geduld und guter "Technik" sehr viel Geld verdienen kann.
Die Zukunft und Entwicklung bleibt auf jeden Fall spannend.
Von irgend welchen Strategielosen "Long-Invests" ist hier nach wie vor abzuraten. Außer man hat genügend Spielgeld und will zocken.
 

... bei 2,55 $. Das wird bestimmt wieder ein "lustiger" Ritt heute. Zwischen 1 und 5 $ dürfte alles möglich sein. ;-)

DRYS und AEZS
bei den beiden macht man mehrmals am Tag sein Geld. Hoher Einsatz, wenig Prozente, schnell rein und schnell wieder raus... eine Vola wie erträumt.  

aber bis der deutsche Michel die neue WKN handeln kann, stehen wir vemmutlich wieder unter 1 $ ... ;-)  

Handel die Aktie da, wo sie Zuhause sind. Konto eröffnen und du bist immer mit vorne dabei.
Auch ich habe ein Deutsches Konto und einen Deutschen Broker, das ich die Aktien an der Heimatbörse handeln kann. Den Mist das ich Tagelang auf eine Umstellung warten soll oder in der Orderausführung als Ausländerin nur 2 Wahl bin, wie es hier bei uns auch gemacht wird....Nein-Danke !  

Wie erwartet werden Klagen gegen DRYS abgelehnt !
Somit kann es gut sein, das der liebe George sich den Rücken gestärkt fühlt und noch so ein paar RS durch haut und die ein oder andere Kalani Finanzierung.

Somit relativiert sich meine Aussage auf einen evt. Rebound den man hätte erwarten können nach Abschluss der laufenden Kapitalerhöhung. Da er bis jetzt ja fast perfekt SEC-Konform läuft dürfte ihm daher auch NICHTS passieren (habe ich ja schon öfters erläutert) und ein Gesetz gegen selbstverantwortlichen finanziellen Suizid gibt es leider noch nicht !

verwässern bzw. in den Markt werfen um seinen letzten Deal abzuschließen, wobei er jetzt schon 2 RS brauchte um überhaupt knapp 2/3 davon umzusetzen.
Nur sind wir jetzt schon wieder knapp am Dollar und sicherlich bis Freitag wieder unter 1 Dollar und bis dahin wir es sicherlich nur 8-10 Millionen umsetzen können, wenn überhaupt, denn die Aktie langt ja niemand mehr an, außer er pumpt den shorts wieder den Hintern auf und verkauft somit aus dem Ask heraus in einer weiteren Squeeze...

Also der hat mittlerweile den höchsten Verzweiflungsakt erreicht und wenn ich mir die letzten Monate anschaue braucht der locker nochmal 2 RS um überhaupt noch den Deal zu erfüllen.
Abartig !!!!!!!!!
Aber interessant, da ich denke das die Aktie immer extremer und volatiler nun wird.
Nur für ein Long-Invest..... davon ist momentan dringend abzuraten, außer man hat Geld zum abschreiben und evt. sehr viel Glück das passende Tief getroffen zu haben.  

... was bei der Butze abgeht.

Dagegen ist das aktuelle Trauerspiel bei AUDEN Kindergartenkacke - stinkt aber auch gewaltig! ;-)  

die 48 Mio. noch am Markt platziert sind dann kann man ein Spielchen wieder wagen:-)  

... splitbereinigt (!) bei 0,05 bis 0,10 Cent stehen - wenn es überhaupt noch dazu kommt.  

kann, da wird die Geschichte noch Monate dauern, außer er Tritt voll aufs Gas haut Aktien um jeden Preis auf den Markt und macht dann den Finalen Split von 100:1 oder so etwas ähnliches !?
Nur sollte das so in der Form laufen und die Finanzierungen sind dann erst mal vorbei, dann hat niemand was gewonnen, denn Kursbewegungen wird es dann im einstelligen Bereich geben und fertig da der Kurs dann der Marktkapitalisierung angepasst ist und die Aktionäre dann somit Final enteignet sind, so gesehen. Außer man kauft dann die "Neuen-Aktien" also sprich nach dem Split, doch die langt ja jetzt schon niemand mehr an.......

Auf der anderen Seite wäre was zu holen wenn George jetzt im Finalen Zug fleißig Aktien schmeißt, der ganze Mist auf 10 Cent zusammen fällt und er dann Final keinen neuen Split ankündigt, sondern nur die Beendigung der Finanzierungen und somit hätte man einen richtigen Runner der einen schnell einen tenbagger einbringt und sogar noch mehr. Dann würde er sogar viel Aktionäre wieder freundlich stimmen. Die, die nicht loslassen konnten, die beist natürlich der räudige Aktien-Wolf und die sehen ihre Einstandskurse nie wieder.  

 

bei 10 Cents kaufe ich auch, def.  

ab 30 C. fange ich an, zu sammeln u. hoffe dann auf Kurse von 200.000 US Dollar
innerhalb eines Jahres, da kommen die nämlich her...
unglaublich aber WAHR!  

Man könnte es nicht besser beschreiben und spiegelt an für sich all das wieder, was ich hier die letzten Wochen und Monate geschrieben habe.

Summary

DryShips is nearing the end of its current dilution round.

Day traders anticipating the end of the dilution round might start buying.

Day traders timing a buy right could see a double or triple.

As most investors following DryShips (NASDAQ:DRYS) already know, CEO George Economou has been diluting the company's common shares through toxic financing since late last year, intent on filling DRYS's coffers without any regard for common shareholders. Over the past eight months, DryShips has pulled in over $700M from investors through four financing deals with a pseudo-underwriter named Kalani. In these financing deals, Kalani receives common shares of DryShips at a 6% discount to the lowest market price over any previous eight trading days. Kalani then dumps those shares onto the market. This practice has decimated shareholders while increasing the book value of the company. The high book value of the company continues to lure more investors.

The current Kalani financing was for $226.4M and as of the last update put out by DryShips, $47.9 of this financing remains. DryShips' book value will likely be around $500M after this final round ends while the current market cap sits around $20M.

What is important now is that investors are starting to anticipate the end of the current financing. The reason is that once the dilution ends, there's hope that there won't be another Kalani financing. And if there is another Kalani financing, there has historically been two weeks between the end of one financing round and the beginning of the next. When the current financing ends, the book value per share will likely end up somewhere between $5 and $8, very high compared to the current share price of $1.10. The exact final book value per share obviously depends on how fast the price drops per day compared to the dollar value of the dilution. It's at least highly probably that the book value per share will be a multiple of the share price when the current dilution ends.

That brings us to the "penguins on the water's edge" analogy. When penguins make their trek for their food, they all line up along the water's edge. Each penguin is reluctant to jump into to the water, infested by killer whales and sea lions, so they all wait on the water's edge for the other penguins to take the plunge. If they all jump in at one time, the predators can't eat them all at once so the penguins have a higher chance of eating their fill of fish and escaping alive with a full stomach.

With DryShips, the carnage has been ongoing but with the current dilution round nearing an end, the predator looks to be somewhat satisfied. If all investors jump in at once, they can hold the share price higher until the dilution ends, limiting the number of new shares issued at lower prices. That would leave a high book value per share in a much more stable environment-the fish would appear to be almost free for the taking while Mr. Economou is digesting. My use of the word, "fish" might be misleading as it describes a nutritious meal for penguins where investors who buy DryShips stock are probably better off regurgitating the shares after holding for a short period of time.

It's likely that penguins will all jump into the water relatively soon, probably within the next few days. Since $170M worth of DryShips shares were purchased by investors over the past few months without an eye toward waiting until the end of the dilution round, it's easy to imagine that there are many more investors waiting on the sidelines looking for an actual light at the end of the dilution tunnel before they jump.

Based on DryShips periodic updates, typically about fifteen to twenty percent of the trading volume has been due to new shares being dumped onto the market. At the end of today, July 26, that likely means there will be about $45M of dilution remaining. While the $26M that was dumped over the previous three trading days might have been abnormally high due to volatility resulting from the reverse split, it's likely that volume will be generally higher than normal going forward as the end of dilution closes in. If and when everyone jumps, volume is also likely to ratchet up very quickly. My guess is this will happen within the next few trading days and probably before Tuesday. A simple spreadsheet model can give an investor a feel for how this might play out.

The periodic updates by DryShips have historically given a weekly tally of the remaining dilution and investors can also get a feel for the dilution by monitoring DryShips' website, which currently shows 15,925,216 common shares outstanding as of today. Based on that share count, obviously all shares issued or to be issued to Kalani haven't hit the market yet.

It goes without saying that investing in DryShips is highly risky. While it does seem like there is an interesting opportunity starting to form, keep in mind that DryShips has a long history of being very shareholder-unfriendly. Many investors have been hammered by DryShips so far. There's a strong possibility that an investor can lose all of their money very quickly by investing in DryShips.

Und schon sind wir endlich wieder unter 1 $ ...

 

Das ist eine Milchmädchen-Rechnung und entbehrt jeder fundamentalen Grundlage.
Der Kurs war in all den Jahren nicht mehr als knapp über 100$

Splits kann man nicht zurückrechnen das ist totaler Humbug und Anfänger glauben dann auch noch das Ammenmärchen.

Hier schau auf den Chart:
