Hi All.

Wondering what this board's feelings are on ESLR now thru Q3 (or even
Q4)
 after the recent CC. I guess my question is, did you (or would you
have) sell your shares before the CC knowing this would drop to the
new low levels?

Personally I am long and strong on ESLR but after watching the market
go up and ESLR stay put makes me wonder if I should have pulled some
chips off the table.  ESLR currently seems to be standing still in
slow motion.

In your opinion, is being an ESLR shareholder [at present] being  Bag
Holder or Wishful Thinker or Smart Money?

is this the same mark that rebuff me and said eslr would hit 18 in 4
weeks?
somber mood my man?
don't feel so bad...
prices have reached its threshold now. With them contracts being
backed by billions of back orders, Its safe to assume prices will be
stable . Around 8~10 i say.
now, it really depends on the folks that are running this company...
Promises have been made.  Deliver on those contracts, ESLR will be
strong.
Falter, ESLR going to down the f***ing drain. Hey,
High risk brings  high rewards. Be patience.

Let me guess.
(A) English isn't your native language.
(B)  You're a shorter.

Combinations and numerous other options are possible.

Okay Juan, get out your pen and paper and write this down.  High
Risk?  Please explain.  I would not call a company with $2b worth of
backlog orders until 2013 high risk.  I would consider a company with
a bleek outlook, loosing money, no sales, penny stock, etc.  Do you
consider a stock that is trading at $9 with a range of $8-$10 stable?
hahaha, wow.  That is a 20% swing, I call that hardly stable.  Thanks
for pinpointing the price though.  You should have just said $0-
$50....would have meant the same to me.

This company will become profitable in early 2009 if you have done
your homework which I can almost bet you have not.  ESLR has had to
incur start-up costs to Devens (do you know what that is?  It is the
new facility they just built to faciliate their growth).  Apparently
ESLR has ran out of its three wishes and must pay the piper.

The price will soar once this company reaches profitability and it
will retain it's value and continue to reach new highs as the days
pass.  There is a reason why there are stocks that trade at high
prices (Great outlook, lots of sales, great margins, business models,
and technology).  ESLR is missing one out of that equation - Can you
guess what that is?  There is a reason I have pumped almost all of my
savings into this company and got my friends to buy into it as well.
Do your due diligence and the writing is on the wall.  Patience is a
virtue and it is never so evident than watching this stock.  I have
always said I can afford to pay more for something or even lose money
if I do my homework and I believe in something - that something is
ESLR and I will reep the benefits in the coming months/years.

Lesson Over.

-RA

Hi risk means not being able to fulfill those orders due to
productivity issues.  That would be a boner.

Anyhow, I sold out.  WHY?  Because one of the execs at ESLR was
selling shares as soon as it hit $10.  I didn't think that was cool at
all...

Yeah... Chleblowski, Sheblowme, whatever his name is.  He also sold
when they hit the mid $12's, right before they made the deal with
Lehman that brought shareholders back to square one.  I was really mad
at him... now he's my financial adviser.  If you can't bet 'em, join
'em.

I did not realize ESLR only had one executive??  Did Richard Feldt
sell his shares?  Did they sell all of there shares?  How many shares
did they sell out of how many they own?  Do you know the executive's
financial situation or the reasoning behind selling the shares?  I am
interested in your answer Bullitz.

Here's my answer...
Look it up.
:-)

http://phx.corporate-ir.net/phoenix.zhtml?c=123321&p=irol-SECText&TEX...

Dated 07/15.

Anyhow, if they had confidence that the stock would do better than
$10, I think they would have waited.  IMHO.

It is not unusual for a company exec to have a significant portion of
their compensation be stock options.  It appears that he was
exercising options for under a dollar per share and selling (at open
auction) the shares exercised.  The fact that he sold at 10, is
definitely good for him.  Typically, there are dates associated with
these options that you must exercise, and frequently a required sell
at point of exerccise.  I know, because I have had that as part of
compensation

Yeah... but.

Nothing.  I just wanted to call you a 'but'.

I realize all that but the timing of the sale caused me to be
superstitious.
And ESLR has been going down since.
Coincidence?  Um... Ok.

Isn't it called being SEC compliant because of insider trading?
Butt....

How can you judge someone because they sold shares?  It is like saying
your friend is an idiot because he took a profit because he had a
family expense that he had to pay for...seriously???  Shame on you.

By you saying you sold because someone else did is the most absurd
thing I have ever heard.  To tell you the truth, I could careless if
someone sells there shares, CEO or common shareholder.  If I do my due
diligence, I will sell when I think it is time regardless of what
anyone else does.  I do not concern myself with anyone else or my
finances.  By you saying that, makes you not credible.  Prove me
different with facts and I am more than willing to listen.

BUT... Wa! Wa Wa Butt...

I'm sure there were many that could of saved their shirts holding
shares of Bear Stearns if they watched and heeded the signs when
insider selling started. The market is very subjective and opinion and
emotions drive it, especially fear.

OK, I dropped my 2 cents, Outta here!

My goodness, man (woman, whatever).

What it told me was that they have nothing new in the near future and
that that price was a good thing.  Had there been something else up
their sleeves coming soon, I think they would have held.
As those who do their research know, this stock is news driven.
BUTT, an additional concern was that not too long after last earnings,
they did the stock offering which didn't help share prices either.
In either case, they sold at a high and I took that sale as meaning it
wasn't going to do any better than that.
Can you say that they and I were wrong?
