ZNext Mining Corporation Inc (CE) (ZNXT) Share Price

The reminents of pearle Asian Mining
I think the largest reverse split in history 1.5 million to one

It was but that does not matter now.

Custodians take control and then clean them up.

ZNXT has to be in WY. I have heard that custodians like WY.

So I snagged a few here in the hopes it will eventually be resurrected.

Long shot.

$ZNXT was 100% scam

Maybe.

I believe it's incorporated in WY.

ZNXT .....should I care? Thanks!!!

Ahh.

It’s because the spread is so huge. This is because the stock is trading unsolicited.

lol.. I'll explain myself..

I don't know anything about this company.. other than the fact I have a couple shares (literally.. lol) in my trading account that I haven't looked at for years..
I must have gotten the shares after some kind of spinoff.. and my original shares (don't even know or remember what they were) must have been reversed split to zero.. or the pps simply collapsed..

Anyway.. back to my question:).. I noticed today that in my trading account.. this ticker symbol suddenly showed that it had went up 400 percent.. so I looked it up on my trading platform.. and when I tried to put in a small trade.. it came back rejected..

I simply came here to ask the question in case anybody knew about this stock.. It obviously does not trade.. and I know if I knew anything about the company (like you apparently do) that my question probably seems "odd".. lol

I was just curious why it spiked?.. can you tell me more?.. ha:)

You just won the award for the oddest question of the day.

is there any way to buy this stock?

HaHa — I doubt it.

My complaint is they routinely put their order ahead of the customer order in unsolicited pinks. Often they fill 100 for the customer and 9900 out of their own stash. The problem isn't quite as profound as it used to be. I think perhaps it's because the old NITE is BK — good riddance!

That's interesting that they want to be in control. I would say — that you would say — that would be like letting the inmates run the asylum (!).

I particularly like items number 2 & 3 from the blog post....

2. Better inform market participants with improved insider reporting and disclosure and regular large investor filings for all publicly traded securities

3. Eliminate information asymmetries by clarifying Rule 10b-5 restrictions on insiders and affiliates trading when adequate current information is not publicly available or increase restrictions on current and former affiliates selling after business combinations or reverse takeovers

I presume you do not like custodial plays because it gives old management (or IR) a new means to unload their shares?

If they run a company into the ground (or never had a real business plan in the first place) there should be a mechanism to cancel their shares and return them to the treasury. I think that's what they are getting at in item #3.


re laissez-faire:

The sexual revolution is long gone and so are the days of front loading, pumping & dumping, reverse-splitting, rinse and repeat MoMo stocks.

It just does work anymore like it used to. The Wild West is getting more civilized now because there is far more oversight. All kinds of warnings, traps, and mechanisms to catch the outlaws and warn investors to avoid certain securities.

The sheer fact that they are telling them to record the name of everyone who places an order for an unsolicited trade tells you the monitoring system is far more sophisticated than it used to be. They expect the Broker-Dealers to "know their customer" (I read that somewhere last week). If that's what they expect, then they have the means to do it (!) — even if they only do it loosely unless there is an obvious problem.

Big brother is watching.


re Expert Market:

I agree the name is confusing. They should have gone with Roach Motel instead...!

Have a great weekend. Wonderful talking to you. I always learn something.

Yes. BUT the proposal is in large part about not allowing MMs to publish quotes for shell companies under any circumstances. That's a GREAT idea. If properly implemented, it'd make custodianship shells worthless, for example. There is, of course, much more to it.

The proposal has FINRA's pretty much unqualified support. Unfortunately, something very similar has been suggested in the past, in a 1998 proposed rule, which was then modified in 1999. It was vigorously protested, and in the end was not adopted. I'm afraid the same may happen again, or that it may in the end be watered down to the point it'll be meaningless.

Unsolicited quotations are addressed, but does what's described in this footnote really happen? I doubt it:

Supplemental Material .01 to FINRA Rule 6432 requires broker-dealers
reliance on the exception provided by Rule 15c2-11(f)(2) (i.e., the unsolicited quotation exception) to “be able to demonstrate eligibility for the exception by making a contemporaneous record of: (a) the identification of each associated person who receives the unsolicited customer order or indication of interest directly from the customer, if applicable; (b) the identity of the customer; (c) the date and time the unsolicited customer order or indication of interest was received; and (d) the terms of the unsolicited customer order or indication of interest that is the subject of the quotation (e.g., security name and symbol, size, side of the market, duration (if specified) and, if priced, the price). Any member displaying a quote representing an unsolicited customer order or indication of interest that was received from another broker-dealer must contemporaneously record the identity of the person from whom information regarding the unsolicited customer order or indication of interest was received, if applicable; the date and time the unsolicited customer order or indication of interest was received by the member displaying the quotation; and the terms of the order that is the subject of the quotation.”

Seems to me that when OTCM allowed more than a dozen formerly suspended stocks to be quoted unsolicited, no such inquiries were made. It "fixed" that by moving them to the "Expert" market, but that was only because I called them and made a fuss.

It's clear from OTCM's THREE comment letters on the proposed rule that it wants to be put in charge of processing Forms 211. It also wants to speed up the process enormously. It believes it should take no more than a few days for a company to have its 211 approved. It also wants companies to be allowed to pay the MM (or IDQS) for its services, which is currently not permitted. To some extent, it has a point: right now, as I understand it, very few MMs are willing to go to the trouble. Just about the only broker-dealer in the business of sponsoring companies and filing Forms 211 for them is Glendale. And the process can take a long time. As long as months. But allowing OTCM just to rubber-stamp them is not, I think, the answer.

The concept of the "Expert Market" is in my view ridiculous. OTCM makes it sound... fancy. Something special, involving trading by "experts". Sophisticated traders. The reality is, it's composed of junk that shouldn't be trading at all. That, however, is the SEC's fault: see what it has to say about "defunct companies":

https://www.sec.gov/fast-answers/answersdfnctcohtm.html

THAT is what opens the door to this bullshit.

Cromwell Coulson, head of OTCM, is a big fan of laissez-faire markets. And that's what he's trying to do with these new "concepts". Accommodate anyone who wants to trade anything at all. Sure, there're a lot of legitimate OTC issuers: the ADRs of big foreign companies; the regional and community banks, and even some microcap companies. But a lot of it--what most of us think of when we think of "penny stocks"--is fraudulent junk that shouldn't be traded in any public market.

And that is something the SEC needs to consider.

The proposed rule:

https://www.sec.gov/rules/proposed/2019/34-87115.pdf

The comments:

https://www.sec.gov/comments/s7-14-19/s71419.htm

The SEC is in concept phase to chance the 211 rule in many aspects — including the ability to have unsolicited quotes.

If they decide to change the rule it could wipe out 3000 stocks that trade unsolicited and/or Pink No Information.

They are presumably doing this to protect public interest.

The Expert Market is OTCM’s counter proposal to show the SEC there is way to deter (and punish) fraudsters without drastically altering the 1/3 of the OTC market.

They also made some proposals more designed to hurt the scammy managers and IR groups instead of the investors.

IMO that’s how you keep from throwing the baby out with the bath water.

I think all stocks get one chance now. If they get suspended they go expert.

Then they gotta get fully transparent and current or they don’t get out. With no L2 everyone will dump their shares and company will stay in exile. That keeps the fraudsters (or scammy management) from being able to dump their shares. The goose is cooked.

Only the best stocks will get out of Expert. That’s how it’s different from the greys.

It also gives stocks one chance at trading unsolicited. If they blow it they go Grey until they get current.

The whole thing is brilliant in my humble opinion.

A lucky few (like ZNXT) have a chance to get current before the SEC makes their decision.

They've always had that choice. It's up to FINRA. If they file a new Form 211, and it's accepted by FINRA, they'll become Pinks--Current Info Pinks--once again. But that isn't happening to Greys that were once suspended. They're being sent to the Expert Market.

Greys that became Grey simply because they lost their MMs because no one was interested in trading them can, and sometimes do, find a new sponsoring MM, and begin trading once again as Current Info Pinks. But that's always been the case, and is an issue separate from the Expert Market or Unsolicited Trading issues.

The SEC has no "decision" to make.

re Unsolicited Greys turning Pink

I have been watching the numbers. 95% of the CE Greys are going to the Expert Motel.

A lucky few (like ZNXT) have a chance to get current before the SEC makes their decision.

This gives stuckholders a chance to exit after so many years in exile or for the brave (or crazy) the chance to make something out of nothing.

If they don't become current before the SEC changes the rule they will most likely turn grey again unless they are "grandfathered in".

If someone tries to run a promotion on any of them the SEC will suspend them and the OTCM will check them into the Expert Motel — where they will no doubt remain until their ticker is deleted.

What is there to lose?

Have you noticed all stocks that the SEC suspends now go straight to Expert?

Well, they don't go "straight" to the Expert Market, but it happens pretty quickly. BUT, as with the Greys, Expert stocks have no published quotations. Again, the Expert Market stocks are just Greys with electronic trade execution.

Early this year, they "accidentally" moved a number of formerly suspended stocks to unsolicited trading. I called them about it. They didn't thank me, or admit anything, but within a few hours, they were moved from Pink No Info, trading unsolicited, to the Expert Market, where they couldn't be quoted.

You think the lenders are still holding after so long? I figure they dump for tax loss purposes as well.

I unloaded most of my greys. Kept 4 of them. 3 of them are alive again.

Imo the purpose of Expert is clear. Have you noticed all stocks that the SEC suspends now go straight to Expert? They don't turn grey anymore.

This is how OTCM is sending a clear and present message to the SEC that they are working with them to keep things clean.

I called OTCM yesterday. They told me that nobody has ever made it off Expert. The bar is extremely high to do so.

Did you notice that TRBO was on the anticipated piggyback list? They must have filed a new Form 211. It was not accepted. They are still in the Expert Motel and not escaping anytime soon.

Trust me. Nobody wants their stock going to Expert.

This is monster deterrent to the fraudsters that like to pump and dump stocks.

When they do so, they are reserving a room at the Expert Motel.

Stocks check in....
But they don't check out.

Oh, I know. The Expert Market is really just the Greys, but with electronic execution. Nonetheless, I think it's a bad thing. The name "expert" suggests something good, and there's nothing at all good about the stocks in question. Worse yet, I suspect OTC Markets has bigger things in mind for it; things they haven't yet fully articulated.

The business of this sudden spate of unknown people asking MMs to submit requests--to to OTC Markets, not FINRA, much less the SEC--to trade stinkers like ZNXT unsolicited is even worse.

I've posted a lot about it on the DD board:

https://investorshub.advfn.com/DD-Support-Board-and-Research-Team-19670/

You can find my posts by searching for "unsolicited" in a board search for 2020. I think the people who're mostly profiting are toxic lenders stuck with stock they can't unload as long as the stocks are on the Greys.

Ahh yes. It's mentioned in the NEWS section at OTCM.

https://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/ZNXT/news/SEC-SUES-ZNEXT-MINING-AND-ITS-PRINCIPAL-FOR-FRAUD-AND-REGISTRATION-VIOLATIONS?id=17289

Thanks for the info.

It's good to see you, BTW. I have been away from trading in the OTCM for about a decade.

When I was here, I tried my best to steer clear of the biggest pump and dump scams. Guess it was because I burned so badly in 2005, when I first started.

I have had a few of my old tickers wake up (ACC$ and TRA$) so I came back to the Hub.

Now I am captivated about the OTCM's obvious attempt to "Police itself" before the SEC makes a decision to change the rules or not.

https://blog.otcmarkets.com/2020/05/01/exploring-the-investor-impact-of-an-sec-rule-proposal/

We have joked on the Grey to Pink thread that the Expert Market is the equalivant of the Roach Motel.

Stocks check in, but they don't check out!

https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=155436844&txt2find=roach

Drop in sometime. Right now we are dealing with mostly CE Greys since they are the ones mostly being sorted at present.

No doubt the conversation will change once this phenomena has passed and the SEC has made its decision.

No, it wasn't suspended in 2009 or at any other time, though it should have been.

https://www.sec.gov/litigation/suspensions/suspensionsarchive/susparch2009.shtml

It was, however, sued by the SEC for fraud in 2009:

https://www.sec.gov/litigation/litreleases/2009/lr21084.htm

Presumalbly OTC Markets doesn't know that. Frankly, the people who deal with this stuff don't know much about old penny scams.

No. It's just trading unsolicited:

https://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/ZNXT/overview

And it's still Caveat Emptor.

Just got spared from going into Expert. Very surprising since it was suspended in 2009.

Perhaps the managers have been prosecuted and they are not longer in the equation and so OTCM gave this the greenlight to trade again on the Pinks.

I managed to get a few last week. Like 10k @ .001 and then a few more this morning.

I really through this would probably end up in the Expert Motel so I did not study the share structure too hard.

After seeing L2, I figure these old share numbers must be about right.

A/S 150MM
O/S 51MM (2009)
FLOAT 20MM

Something seems to be going on with this one.

Grey to pink

This stock actually traded a few shares today. Wonder what that is about.

Oh just stopping by to see what up with this timber ??

I was a holder of ZNXT and still hold a stake of Au Marcge Min. shares (0E2033). My bank missed to convert the shares to Au Min Africa (GRYEF) according to the 8-k filing from 2014. Please can anybody tell me how to proceed and to get this done?

Me too...was a trader then...I have a fillipino friend, he told me be careful of stocks in Phillipines

I remmeber when this was PAIM I made money on it then

Yes. I've been RS'd down to nothing on this one.

And so a new scam is born.

Pheman, thanks for this info.

ZNext is now Au Min Africa Pty Ltd. See the 9/2/14 8-k filed by Au Min Africa for detalis.

Thanks!

It's Grey. Presumably its MMs deserted it; it wasn't ever suspended by the SEC, but it was sued.

Pearlie seems to be keeping her head down these days. Perhaps the arrests of Winick and his cronies made her nervous.

Does anyone know if this company is completely done? It shows that it was active on 04-10-14. I don't own many on this one and to be completely honest I don't remember buying into it. Maybe a company name change or something.

I'm surprised ZNEXT is still around. Yeah, they have been involved in some very profound activity over the years. When they were called Pearl Asian Mining, I made my best stock trade ever through their reverse merger/ buyback ordeal. I didn't know they were going to do that. I just bought a bunch of shares at .0001 and three weeks later the stock went to pluto. The insiders made the really big money on that deal. I just rolled the dice and happened to be in the right place at the right time.

Sorry. In the "rookie" department, I'm afraid the shoe's on the other foot.

Pearlie is a crook. She's always been a crook. She runs scams, and PAIM/ZNXT was one of them. But it was a very amusing one...

Seems to me they only enforce when the companies all about to bankrupt the shorts and brokers ! But you are a rookie so ---- You won't know this ! Rich get richer poor getting poorer !

Go ZNXT

Funny ZNext Mining Corporation, Inc (ZNXT)is followed by weird questionable people.....

LOL. ZNXT was a complete scam from the get go. Brought down by SEC insiders? Huh?

I thought it was the SEC's job to enforce.

Funny ZNext Mining Corporation, Inc (ZNXT)is followed by weird questionable people..... Looks like any company that has investor money becomes a scam . Znxt was a perfect company that was brought down by SEC insiders and fraud bankers.... Go ZNXT

Nice to see that Pearlie got some attention in connection with Winick. Not as much as she deserves, of course.

A con artist buys a con artist’s company

A serial fraudster with an aristocratic name used Winick company for her own ‘pump and dump’ stock racket.

By: Tony Van Alphen News reporter, Published on Fri Dec 13 2013
http://www.thestar.com/business/2013/12/13/a_con_artist_buys_a_con_artists_company.html

It takes one to know one.

Con artist Sandy Winick spun out 59 empty companies so he could use them to create a trading market and make money during the last decade. One of them was Pearl Asian Mining Industries.

And in 2005, Pearlasia Gamboa, alias “Princess Bae Catiguman,” bought the company from Winick so she could sprinkle some personal marketing magic on the firm and turn it into gold for herself.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission later charged that Gamboa used the company, which changed its name to ZNext Mining Corp., for a “pump and dump” stock manipulation scheme. She orchestrated the sale of 1.9 billion shares and issued a series of news releases touting mining activity in the Philippines and a cost-saving ore refining system, according to the SEC.

The stock climbed and Gamboa collected more than $1 million in three years before the share price fizzled.

A district court judge ordered a default judgment totalling $1.8 million and a lifetime trading ban against her in 2010 as a result of the case. She never showed up in court or paid the penalties.

A U.S. court later permanently barred her from selling penny stocks.

ZNext has also popped up in a much bigger scheme as part of a U.S. crackdown of international investment fraud.

U.S. investigators have described Gamboa as a serial fraudster after other brushes with the law.

Gamboa, who is in her early 60s, has portrayed herself as an investor and president of the Dominion of Melchizedek, a tiny island in the South Pacific, according to one San Francisco magazine.

It found the atol has never received diplomatic recognition from most countries because its territorial capital lies underwater at high tide.

“Getting to the bottom of the truth requires delving into a story that might have resulted from an artistic collaboration between Ian Fleming and Salvador Dali,” the magazine concluded.

ZNXT is the reverse split king and scam queen. Never gained it's shareholder support after one to many r/s. timmmmmmmmber

Does anyone know if you can trade the Restricted Shares I received of Philippines RoyaL OIL & ALTERNATIVE ENERGY?

Thank you, Dan...

Funny you mention those stocks! ZNXT, PYCT, WPMLF spinnoff of PAIM from 2006....still shows in my account! those were the fun days!

The sh*t just keeps spewing out her mouth!

Anything the DOM is involved in is a mess. Scams run by goofy 3rd rate crime syndicates usually are. Pearlie is a real gem. I wonder if they will ever get her under lock and key like her erstwhile pseudo husband Branch Dresser? or whatever he is calling himself in prison...

In related news the clown known as Andy Badger is working the gray sheet companion stock Western Pacific Mining WPMLF board. Hilarious stuff. It traded at .002 a couple of times and he is trying convince people it and PYCT are headed for the moon. I love the DOM. Its hilarious.

Good luck finding someone to buy the shares at any price. That part of the Dominion of Melchizedek family of scams is deader than a doornail. Cant imagine who would want even 1 share unless they were a somone who collects Dominion memorabilia.

I will call E*trade Monday to see whats going on

They'll probably have a VERY hard time sorting it all out.
