DNAPrint Genomics Inc (EM) (DNAG)

why does this stock still trade?

yeh BUD, Unfortunately.
He Sold DNAPrint (under the name AncestrybyDNA), to the DNA Diagnostics Center.

But hey, DNAG was an adventure – it was exciting – it was a first step – and we learned a lot.

22 years years later and Tony still has not taken this one to the big boards. Busted dreams for a few, but I am sure he made a dollar or two. That is what is important right?

still holding. I like the name:))

They were the first company to introduce forensic and consumer genomics products, which were developed immediately upon the publication of the first complete draft of the human genome in the early 2000s

NO

They still have 24 employees.

I don't think there is anyone working for the company, let alone 24..
BUT, someone somewhere thinks a patent owned by this defunct shell of a going concern has value and is willing to pay up for it..
Here's hoping we get a reasonable price for whatever intellectual property is there......GLTA....

It's been a steady raise. I'm comfortable. They still have 24 employees.

Up again!

Maybe this is why?...The spit-in-tube DNA you send in is anonymized and used for genetic drug research and both sites have been selling the data to third-party companies, like P&G Beauty and Pepto-Bismol, and universities, like The University of Chicago, for some time. In fact, just last week major pharmaceutical giant, GlaxoSmithKline, announced a $300 million deal with XXXXX

Exciting

i find it odd that there website is back up.....

Yes, you may ask.
I'm an HR nerd so I use various tools and track hiring, and for what type of new jobs are posted.

Example: I discovered BNGO at .37 and grabbed shares...they closed at 12.58 today. Works for me!

may i ask where you find those numbers at?

They now have 24 employees. I smell something cooking.

Hello,
Watch what's happening now: 10 M trade ?! My portfolio up 12 K. Love it!

Hello,
Any idea why 2 million shares traded today?

any day now

I had a similar stock do this sevral years and the vslue went fro sub pennys to 8 o dollars per share so im holding on to my practically worthless shares oasyou dont know what the future brings DNAG is a great ticker to use for snother business also You dont know what the intellectual value of the data they hold id worth.

Can anyone tell me if DNAG can be used as a tax write off? This is an article I found from Bankrate that supports the idea of a write off to offset capital gains? Thanks in advance.

insert-text-here

But what if your shares of a corporation dropped off the stock market radar before you were able to unload them? You might be able to write off the holding on your tax return as a worthless stock.

?Just because a company is in bankruptcy, or its stock isn’t trading, doesn’t necessarily mean it’s worthless. If it’s worth even a few pennies, it still has value in the eyes of the IRS.

If you truly do have a dead stock in your portfolio, you treat it on your tax return as if it were a capital asset you sold for zero dollars on the last day of the tax year.

Documentation for the IRS
When you report a worthless-stock transaction, you don’t have to put the details of the stock’s demise on your return.

However, tax experts say if you’re questioned by the IRS, you need to be prepared to show:

There is no hope investors will ever get anything for their holdings. This isn’t always easy, so do your homework.
When the security became worthless. You must reasonably determine the date the stock lost all its value.
Once you’re armed with that information, it’s time to report your loss.

I have read that there are groups of people that petition the courts that hold jurisdiction in the stock's registration state to find the stock abandoned by the owner(s) and then buy the symbol to repurpose and resale the shell.

Did you notice that after not trading for a long time we go past .0001 and are trading at .0002 yesterday.. Something going on here. Still holding my position here..

It was that for sure.

Price
$0.0002
Day's Change 0.0002 (952.63%)

I have 60000 shares of this stock evidently they kept the ticker out there. I had a stock do something like this one and it changed the company but purchased the ticker and it went to 9.00 per share. Didn't have 60000 shares of course lol. What a bloodbath.

Me too. I had just opened up an account to trade stocks in January 2000. I read that DNAPRINT was reverse merging, with Catalyst Communications. I got in late, but the reward would have been 3.5 times my investment. My first big buy and I watched it dwindle away in August of 2000. Learned valuable lessons on DNAP. I have another play going which is a reverse merger. Only this time the company going public via the r/m is making good money as opposed to Catalyst that was not doing much, of anything back then. This time I will sell and not worry, about what some CEO says to sell me a bill of goods that may or may not come true. The stock symbol is LAHO. I also learned not to invest over the top and expect a major payout. Got to keep some money to play another day.

You're correct orangecat, I was invested in DNAG when they went under many years ago. If prospective "investors" go to their wiki page, look for the keyword "was" in the description of the company.

This company went out of business over 9 years ago.

The kicker is his technology has just been expanded on now they are saying a company is giving police a photo of the suspect from the DNA. Can't predict age. They've used it so far and caught 2 people. That's unbelievable. I forget the company. And there's still a back log of untested rape evidence kits sitting in police station storage rooms across the country. Mr. Frudakis at the time knew they had 1000's of kits across the country he could ran those DNA tests and put them in a data base.

The Gore Bush election debacle saw Dnap/Dnag really taking a hit downward. The last gasp was around 25 cents a share in 2000.

Yeah I lost a ton that day I was up 17k and didn't sell. So Stupid I had friends who were up 110k and didn't sell. UGH so very stupid. I was here then too.

YEAH . . . YEAH . . . YEAH!

DNAP..A long long time ago..

Sold my shares long ago and moved on. Memories of August 2000 are still fresh in my mind. It was fun watching DNAP reach the 30 cent area for a while that one day in August. Good to see you are still around too.
Happy trails to you as well.
