If you have watched MINE for a while, you will note it is under the trading symbol MINED now. What is MINE? It is Minerco, Inc. (OTC: MINE, MINED). The symbol is temporary while it settles its 1 for 1oo reverse split that was effective on October 2nd: 

“Capital Change=shs decreased by 1 for 100 split. Pay date=10/02/2015.” (From OTCMarkets.com)

The very news of an upcoming reverse split hit the stock. Then you get a bounce or two right after. Where’s it headed? $20 obviously, right?

This is a real company, FYI. It is producing a product or two. I am not a fan of reverse splits until well after they have been sorted out. I like about six weeks minimum to pass to see where a stock lands. 

That’s my say. Let’s look at The Buzz from all around!

It starts out a bit crude: .

Everyone wants to know… Is MINE AKA MINED a ‘good stock’? .

Wow – Ski is impressed with a stock that returns shares to its “treasury!” Are you?

Oregon_CannabisLIVE has a few words for the Bashers! 

TIGGER WARNING: BAD WORD AHEAD – FROM Real_Oregon_Cannabis: .

Sometimes showing products in nature is the best thing to do.

Other times, showing products next to sporting equipment is the best thing to do.

BOTH TOGETHER?

Wow:
