Doesnt matter what the inventory is. What matters is the SALES numbers. Inventory doesnt earn a penny sitting in a warehouse. Actually it's a liability because you have to pay for the storage.

Hopefully in the spring a rebar will sell and pps will get back to .0010 after the big announcement. For now it's store that inventory. If you don't have it you can't sell it. Merry Christmas. Holy moly red is in.

Dr. Byrne's Naked Short Selling/Fail To Deliver Slideshows
Dr. Byrne, CEO of Overstock.com, has created a slideshow series that explains in no uncertain terms everything you would ever need to know about naked short selling, and the systemic risk it presents to the US equities markets. The "Dark Side Of The Looking Glass" slideshow represents the first time the entire problem has been articulated in an easy to follow slideshow format, narrated by Byrne himself. Well worth the time to listen to.
The series is located at the Businessjive website (a great site and well worth visiting for other reasons):

Actually waiting on a bunch of things to happen Acer.
Some of which are: the 2006 SOX audits for the first 3 Q's would be a good start. Getting the company on a consistant time line would be a huge accomplishment. The small contract pr's and company updates are a good sign that Plasticon is finally revenue generating. Same story as most pinks. Expanding rapidly, never having enough money to go around and to darn slow on the audits.
The chart shows the money flow has finally turned around and it appears the stock is back to the accumulation phase. Each time that has happened in the last 2 years there has been a pretty significant pop in the pps. Only the good Lord knows for sure and where it may go if it does move. Time shall tell. All these Pinks are a lotto play. Never invest any money you can't afford to lose and do your own DD. GLTY

Plasticon International, Inc. Wholly Owned Subsidiary, Pro Mold,Inc., Explores $7.52 Billion Injection Mold Industry
Dec 7, 2006 09:04:37 (ET)
LEXINGTON, KY, Dec 07, 2006 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) -- Plasticon International, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: PLNI) announced today that representatives of the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Pro Mold, Inc., have recently visited injection mold facilities in the Peoples Republic of China. This visit is part of Pro Mold's continuing efforts to offer products that are competitively priced and produced with a shorter production cycle in an effort to provide superior service to customers.
The Company believes that sales revenue in the die and injection mold industry has been expanding at an average annual rate of some 20 percent in recent years in China. The country grossed about 7.52 billion U.S. dollars in domestic sales of die and injection molds last year, up some 25 percent from a year ago. Customs statistics also show that China exported 740 million U.S. dollars worth of die and injection mold products last year, comparing 490 million U.S. dollars in 2004.
"We believe that to maintain and increase business, we need to be able to provide injection mold solutions off-shore. China's technical ability has improved, while short production lead times, allow products to enter the marketplace in a very short time span," stated Jim Turek, CEO and President of Plasticon International, Inc.

Plasticon International, Inc. Negotiating With Multiple National Distributors to Meet Increased Demand for Products Tuesday December 12, 9:27 am ET
Pro Mold Reports Backlog of Orders in Excess of $960,000 Through January 2007
LEXINGTON, KY--(MARKET WIRE)--Dec 12, 2006 -- Plasticon International, Inc. (Other OTC:PLNI.PK - News) is pleased to announce that its subsidiary companies, Pro Mold and SEMCO, have reported their largest order backlogs in the history of either company. Pro Mold's current order backlog is in excess of $960,000 through January 2007. Plasticon International is currently conducting negotiations with several national distributors to support the increased demand for the Company's products. Due to the inability of BlueLinx to meet sales and distribution quotas as agreed upon in their exclusive agreement, Plasticon International has elected to exercise its arbitration rights to seek compensation.
"As we approach the close of 2006, our future has never been brighter. Our companies have achieved record setting order backlogs and we're beginning to receive initial offers from several national distributors. These initial offers are already expected to exceed those that we received from BlueLinx over the entirety of our three-year relationship. We are very excited about a new year and an exciting future for Plasticon and our shareholders," stated Jim Turek, CEO and President of Plasticon International, Inc.
Additionally, Plasticon International is preparing for the annual World of Concrete Expo being held in Las Vegas, Nevada January 23 through January 26, 2006. The Company is planning on displaying its environmentally friendly products in its own booth. Plasticon International will announce more information regarding the show as it becomes available.
