I have a bunch of loser penny stocks that are coming up on 1 year holds, so I need to sell some of them to offset some short-term capital gains.

Some of you know about the "Jo effect" where as soon as I sell a stock, it immediately goes up. So, I thought I'd have some fun with it and get votes on which ones I should sell. I would like someone to benefit from the "Jo effect", so I'd like to sell the ones that some of you still hold.

The choices are as follows. Hit the Poll button to vote.

CBAY - currently .0035
PAVC - currently .42
RSHN - currently .0006
SLJB - currently .0155
SEVI - currently .0011
UPZS - currently .045
XKEM - currently .0207

Also, if anyone knows any compelling reasons to continue to hold any of these, please alert me.
Thanks,
Jo

Jo, I assume you just have the 100 shares of PAVC, right? If so, that wouldn't be a loss, would it? Or do you have more than that for some reason?

Sadly, PCola77, I paid so much for the original PAIC shares that even with the extra 93 shares after the split, I'm still in the red.

I did not buy them on the geek play. I had them already! (Sad but true)

Oh geez... [Wink] I'd probably keep an eye on the price the next few days, and the first time you hear about someone getting their restriction lifted, bail then. It's been going up lately for some reason, but once the restricted shares hit the market, it'll be ugly. IMO, of course.

Thanks for that suggestion. I guess they were restricted for a year, then?

Okay folks, the PAVC shares are sold at .73

Let's see if the "Jo effect" is in play.

Why'd you sell that one Jo? It's still been going up. You shoulda held until restricted shares started hitting the market.

Cause, it was #1 in the poll [Smile]

I didn't have time to wait for restricted shares to hit cause I needed to get out of it to use it for a short term loss.

So, I see the "jo effect" is working on that one. Up to .98 since I sold.

Which one next? You guys give me one that you are in, so that you can benefit!

thanks Jo. was thinking .024 pretty easy for xkem. just a lil patience. sevi is scary enough imo good riddance, sljb may surprise you back to .02 to .024 ~ good riddance to that one too. guess who might shake something ~ xlpi ~ just finished their hearing and was given a chance to pay up and move forward (within 120 days) or walk the plank. not sure if you still have any of that or not. see what they can do with no money and no employees getting paid. i threw a little in today for the gamble ~ most likely will watch it rot. may make for a couple flips along the way. cheers

Jo, would you mind doing a great many a great favor by buying EFGO and then selling it? (Try not to hold it too long--we don't need the dip.)
