re: Tips for buying used car from private seller?
Posted by Dock Holiday on 4/2/26 at 12:52 pm to Havoc
Narrow your search as much as possible. brand and models first,
Figure out the years of that brand and model that have had the most trouble (oil leaks, transmission failure, oil consumption, etc) this part takes a lot of screen takes time and effort. For instance, Honda accords are great cars, but certain years and models had transmission issues and the 2.0L turbos had some failures.
I hope you have a trusted mechanic, I have brought potential cars to mine, spent $125 to have him go over it and give me his opinion on the car and run codes the cheaper scanners cannot pick up.
Avoid KIA/Hyundai at all cost.

One other thing, she can't seem to understand that using the word "explode" gets some people nervous. I mean gheesh... using "processing" is still technically correct, and less spooky to the weak knee people.

Not the PR needed to prevent the price and confidence erosion. Let's see where this lands in the next 2 days. Don't think is will crash, some of this disappointment seems to be baked into the current downward price pressure.

Caught twice
Aside from all the other craziness of the story, micky mouse reel, same guy, same dock...
The fish was taken, the eggs were harvested, it was released 3.3 miles from where she was caught and was caught again from the same dock 2 years later.
There is another story I read years back about a bass doing same thing on Toledo Bend. Caught at Indian Mounds, entered the lunker program, released at the bridge, caught again at Indian Mounds.

The fish spawned 33,649 fingerlings on its first trip to the Texas Freshwater Fisheries Center (TFFC) and when it was returned following the spawn, she was released at a location approximately 3.3 miles from the dock. One way or another, she made her way back to the same spot for Gomez to catch her again.

Supply and demand. Lower rate means they are trying to bump up the demand, which could indicate that fewer people are betting against the stock.
Fell again yesterday to 3.5%. I'd imagine the next move is they will be returned, 3.5% is very low.

Borrowed shares interest rate has dropped to 4% as of yesterday. The original block of shares is still on loan, but the rate has dropped twice in 2 weeks.

Yeah, I think this is a poor look on their part. They’ve not met estimation for the Austin corporate office opening.
Nor does it look like Kristen forecast of a NASDAQ up list for for May is going to happen
I know she is new to this
But she needs to get better, specially, as it relates to future forecasting of revenue
Is that as a guaranteed way to crash a stock and not meeting forecast to the street
This has been my beef since EPA approval, it's all on them at this point, you CAN NOT point to government delays as a cause.
Any and all investors, shorts, bulls, etc... will use any piece of information as justification and spin it up to meet their goal. See the history of SLI as an example, Blue Orca killed that stock and the mgmt team.
A similar company (or even Blue Orca) could take aim at HG right now and they would have a ton of clean-up to deal with.
There could be major news coming today, tomorrow, or next week that tempers these concerns, but as I've said earlier, the farther in time they get from EPA approval with near zero significant stated milestones reached, the more chance this is going to crash bad due to any number of reasons. clock is ticking...

The Nasdaq listing will solve this. It needs to happen ASAP
I can't find where they mentioned they even applied yet. If they applied today it's a 4 to 6 weeks review. The stock price has been above $4 since Feb 25th. TBH if they still have not submitted the application then something is holding them back, can only speculate what that may be. "NASDAQ uplisting in Q2" means they need to get that application submitted really soon. If it does not get uplisted in Q2 then its egg on their face.

Study using Graphene in telecom
A bit more scientic detail. The race to 6G
This could get interesting long term.

High-frequency terahertz (THz) detectors are vital for next-generation high-speed wireless communication systems. Graphene, with its high carrier mobility, broadband absorption, and weak electron-phonon coupling, offers great promise for ultra-fast THz photothermoelectric devices.

What is everyone thinking on where this stock goes after the AGM?
If it's a recycled message with different dates attached, then hold onto your butts in the near term, a sell off will happen.
If they release a surprise or 2 then it could be a good week up until 10 minutes before market close on Friday were retail dumps shares in favor of weekend beer money.

I don't think it's negativity, I think with the higher price, comes a greater responsibility to look at the negatives, as well as the positives. Many folks have gone from owning an "afterthought" stock that they threw $15k as a spec play, to owning a stock that is a significant part of their portfolio. It's getting treated differently, now.
This! With success comes scrutiny. Some (many actually) of the goals that have been mentioned have not come to pass in the timeline stated and many have yet to happen at all.
Could be a good thing as long as those "milestones" do in fact happen, it means there is plenty of runway out beyond today to look forward to and the price/share is currently in a good spot.
They are under more of a spotlight now, the next few months could gain or lose significant creditability with a broad demographic of investors, just reality.

I think this is pretty significant.
It's good new, no doubt. I just don't see it having a big influence on the stock price for a while if at all. Stil not a contract agreement and also just an agreement to test for the next year.
I don't see much de-risk in this, the testing they are embarking on can come back as a failure in the eyes of Sparc, completely up to Sparc's opinion.

For the 1st time ever a large portion of my shares went out for loan. I got the email this morning and to be honest I forgot HG was available to be lent out. I've had other securities loaded out, but never HGRAF, not sure what it means at this point. It's only a 5% interest rate, I've gotten more than twice that rate for others.

They will want to be as close to the supplier as logistically possible.
It's about $3 million per mile in Tx to install a new pipeline, that's a minimum, and before getting complicated with right of ways and permits in congested areas. Building the production facility right next to the Western plant in Belview would make the most business sense.
