Welcome to The Bjornoyan International Stock Exchange (http://0601.netclime.net/1_5/3/Q/4/BISE.mid)

Announcement: Nations not in E2 may purchase stock and bet on Chocobo Racing, but simply because I could not keep track of it all may not sell stocks of companies based in their nation.

The Bjornoyan International Stock Exchange (B.I.S.E.) is stationed primarily in the Bjornoyan metropolis of Geopolis. Stocks may be bought and sold here, for an extremely minor transaction fee paid to the B.I.S.E. that will allow the B.I.S.E. to maintain its facilities and provide better services to the stockholders of Earth II. There will be a .05% transaction fee, with a cap of 10 million dollars. To avoid complications stocks must be purchased in 50,000 increments.

The two major forms of stocks to be sold are preffered stocks, which offer large dividends, but offer the holders no say in how they want the company who sold them the stocks to operate. The second form is common stock, which allows the stockholder to have a say in the direction of the company, but offers a less generous dividend.

A dividend, of course, is a set amount of money that will be sent to the stockholder merely for owning the stock. Let's say a stock has a quarterly dividend of $10. This means for each stock a person owns within that company, they will receive $10 dollars every quarter of a year (3 months).

First come first serve ladies and gentlemen, let the buying begin!

Oh yeah, Visara has insanely high stock prices because:
1) It only issued a very small ammount of stocks (30,000 as I recall). I could've sold 1 share that would be worth 3 trillion dollars if I wanted, or 3 trillion shares for a dollar a piece. The price of a share involves not only how big or how much potential a company has, but how much stocks are issued.
2) Visara is huge, possibly the single largest company in E2.

When ever you wish to sell your stock, just post the intent to do so and I will determine the profit. A day-to-day scale would be hard, but I can keep it updated every so often.

Since Hyball Industries appears to deal with military funding, I think I will tie growth in that company with your defense budget. Will update. I changed the dividend into what they would be annually for simplicity's sake.

For future reference, Hawdawg's defense budget is $16,665,599,918,562, and commerce is $1,960,658,813,948 according to this (http://www.sunsetrpg.com/economystatistics.php) calculator

(first question: What calculator are you using? I use thirdgeek. Second: Would commerce be best for this?)

Press Release from Lower Mesopotamia Drilling Co.

Our company would be willing to offer 1,000,000 prefferred shares, with an original sale price of $45 each. We are the largest oil drilling company in the Sultanates of Iraq and Kuwait, and have facilities in Iran and Kurdistan as well.

Ahhh! You've got my attention, please stop posting![/jk]

1) I use whatever this (http://www.sunsetrpg.com/economystatistics.php) calculator is called (no idea)
2) Since oil is such an omnipotent industry, engulfing everything from obviously the military and public transport, to other less obvious regions like law and order (services and material used here are produced using oil) and education (same thing) I will tie this company to your total GNP. This makes the stock much better, considering it is harder to ruin your GNP than make cuts in commerce or defense.

I'll put these up right away, whomever gets them is a sure winner.

We wish to purchase 1.5 million shares of Laksevag Industries @ 75 million USD.

OOC: One thing I want to point out Bjorn. make sure you calculate the rise and fall from a benchmark in one calculator. Crossing data from the Sunset or 3rd geek calculator won't be accurate because they use different variables to come up with each economic indecee. In other words after a baseline has been established stick with the calculator you established the baseline in to maintain the same plane of increases or decreases. I can explain in more detail if I need to.

OOC: I noticed the difference, and switched everything over to 3rd Geek yesterday. In the beggining when I first started, Sunset gave me a GNP twice as much as the other (which is probably why I liked it better). Would definitely screw up the stocks if I didn't use the same one. Yeah, thanks for tip it's been taken care of.

Transfer will be completed momentarily, best of luck with your new acquisition.

OOC Announcement:

I have realized that from the amount of stocks being sold now, not too much money or risk is involved. For a nation, the gain or loss of a few million dollars is nothing. For instance, although Amgen has risen an astounding 8.1%, if a nation had purchased all of the stock in Amgen their total gain right now would be a negligible $8,110,000. My commerce, 1% of my nation's budget is $36,890,599,409. This gain would be nothing.

With the exception of Visara (whose stock holders, Hawdawg and NTG have earned an impressive $3,090,000,000) the other gains are not too noticeable. I would like a 1% gain to equate to the $10M dollar range.

***Therefore, although it is extremely unrealistic compared to the RL stock exchanges, I will be multiplying the shares owned, shares available, and amount originally paid to each company by a multiple of 100 (except for Visara), unless there are some intelligent objections and alternative solutions. So, if you own 1,000,000 shares of Amgen stock worth $10.26M, tommorow you'll have 100,000,000 shares worth $1,026M dollars. The primary objective of this is to allow for massive amounts to be gained and lost, making it a more appealing game.***

I will probably put up one or two more companies tommorow. Just for planning purposes, where would a desalinization (turning sea water into drinking water) company fit? The other company would be ship repair, so transportation maybe?

Thank you and my profit margin on Visara Co. is actually $4,560,000,000. Combined with other gains and losses HSE is running $3,972,900,000 in the black excluding our hiccup on Hyball and C Rations R Us. But recent economic changes will ratchet these values back to presales levels shortly.
The more folks that introduce stocks and trade the more we income we can generate.


-Hawdawg

*updated 11/30/05 end of day*

Monthly Stock Summary:

Visara's gains were lessened today, and Amgen was hurt as well most likely due to the possibility of war brewing from the crash of the North Germanian submarine in the Arctic.

C Ration's are Us continues to fall under accusations from foreign companies that their products resulted in food poisoning. This, in my opinion is unlikely, and I would definetly recommend purchasing these stocks during this temporary slump.

Hyball Co. also fell unexpectedly. I predict a sharp rebound in the near future.

Laksevag Naval Shipyards recovered a bit from last months fall, probably from two large orders placed to them by Visara and Kreynoria.

L.M.C.D. had a decent increase. It is predicted that a large spike in the price will occur once the trade restrictions due to the plague have been lifted.

Russian based N.T.I. and Uralzavod have risen for the second month in a row. Why these stocks haven't been selling is beyond me. It is time for the stockholders to get over the long held prejudices against central Asian companies, and realize they have potential.

Fourth Reich based Kinetisch and Deustchesarbeit both rose slightly, a mere .11%. It would be a good time to purchase these stocks while the prices are relativelly low.

And another company has caught my interest, Cuppric Co. from the U.S.B. A few bold and daring people have already purchased some of this diamond mining corporation's stock, and I encourage those with lots of money and a gaming spirit to purchase these stock.

B.I.S.E Coordinator,
Jamous Hinderman

OOC:
Elephantum I've been trying to diversify where I link the stock growth to. I think I'll split the water purification company's profits: half going to population growth, and half going to healthcare. Ship repair could go under public transport or defense, I prbly choose an easy one since calculations are getting longer each day (but I like it)

Hawdawg Hope you don't mind me making up random stories to explain stock situations. I think what happened was your economy dropped a degree, decreasing your tax rates by equal amounts, but I'm not sure yet. Visara and Amgen's situation baffles me as well, but I'm sticking to the numbers.

My GNP when I sold the stock was 5,731,653,772,000, now it's 5,772,268,315,000 (5,772,268/5,731,653= 1.00708=.71% growth $1.5T(think that's what you purchased them for, 1/2 the 30,000 shares available) *.00708=$.01065T=$10.65B + dividends ($2,000/day/share*15,000shares=$30M/day*5? days= $150M=$.15B+$10.65B=$10.8B total gains

Which is much more than I found yesterday, must've fouled something up. O well, this will come easier to me with time.

It is hoped this move will increase the current value of the stock which has plummeted to a 2 month low in recent days.



HyBall Industries is offering $75/share buy back for 100 Million shares.

The HSE wishes to sell 200 Million shares of Amgen however we wish to set a cap at which we will sell. We have a target selling price of $12.50/share. Vice versa we want to set a stop-loss price of $12.20. Please make the appropriate adjustments with these numbers.

OOC: I have discovered a way to manipulate the 3rd Geek Calc, and have successfully increased my GDP by 70% in like 4 days. I'm not sure the specifics of this, but I will not be doing it again any time soon unless there's an emergency. It is not fair, and if you don't believe the increase please check it with my current GDP on 3rd Geek and the second post on this thread.

Hawdawg:

Visara will sell you its 50,000,000 (1/2 of the 1,000,000*100(from recent change) shares initially offered) for $3,750M

$4,000M-$3,750M= $250M loss for Visara Co.

200M shares of Amgen have been sold at $20.21/share

200M*20.21= $4,042M-initial purchase ammount($1,219M+$1,000M)=$1,823M profit+dividends

Congratulations on your success, we hope you return to do business with us soon at the B.I.S.E.

C Rations R Us books huge contract

In a recent move C Rations R Us announced an annual contract with the nation of Sephrioth for 20 billion cases of product annually. The expected income for this order alone is 35 trillion USD. Company officials are planning on constructing three new manufacturing plants and six dock side facilities in Stockholm to expedite the shipping of this monumental order. This order eclipses any previous order for the company to date.

*updated 12/5/05 and I reset your initial settings Hawdawg because of these recent events, and gave C Rations a boost, considering your two recent orders. Sweet mother of mercy, I don't think my rapid GDP growth is stopping... and I don't know how!*

Press Release: Gulf Aeronautics
Gulf Aeronautics is very interested in branching out into the international economy. We would like to offer 125 million common stocks, (approx. 25% of our total) for sale. We are Elephantum's leading producer of commerical aircraft, and are working with the military on becoming a producer of military craft, for both domestic use and foriegn export. (OOC: they, hopefully, will get a storefront selling uncommon RL aircraft, stockholders will recieve a slight discount. This should probably be a mix of Public transport and military, although commerce might fit as well.)

Our current price, after a massive rise due to recent press releases, is $45.75 USD equivalent per share.

EDITED number of stock

Offical Statement by the Barbary Coast Company
The Barbary Coast Company would like to sell 5% of it's stock (250 million shares) on the BISE, with a starting price of 5,788.76 Kumt per share (3,148.47 USD). This may seem high, but keep in mind you are buying a percentage of Carthage itself.

(Don't ask me how I calculated the worth of the stock. I think I did it by taking my trade surplus, which is $293,113,440,671.48, then dividing it by 2, which was confusing, so I just got the number 100 billion, which I then divided by 5%, and then divided by 5%, then divided by 170170. Confusing, I know. If you think that is a WEE bit too high to spend on a stock (although, in my defence, you are buying a chunk of my country), just say so.)

EDITED: Price

Elephantum would like to buy 10 million shares of Barbary Coast Company sotck, for a total of $3,431,484,700,000 USD (god thats expensive, it'd better be worth it)

Elephantum would like to buy 10 million shares of Barbary Coast Company sotck, for a total of $3,431,484,700,000 USD (god thats expensive, it'd better be worth it)

Think of it this way, you now own a percentage of Carthage. Since Carthage has now been turned into, basically, a business, you actually get to influence decisions, since you're a stock-holder. I'd calculate the percentage that you own, but that is going to be a daunting task.

Also, I guess I went a bit overboard, since those stocks seem to be too expensive. Lemme lower the price a bit per stock.

That might be a good idea, I was going to buy 50 million stock, but it came out to like 17 trillion.

*updated, check TGs TLS. Posted new stock Eleph, wanna give me some random dividend prices for your companies? And just a reminder, if you intend to sell common stock for Gulf Aero, those who own the stock will have a say in the company*

Why does nobody buy my shares? Common guys, they grow in value.

Okay here it is

Layarteb Defense Corporation (LDC)
180M shares @ $75/ea

Company is not state-run but all foreign sales MUST be state approved.

OOC:Lay: Shares added, you will be notified when stocks are sold regarding the amount of money the LCD will receive from the sale of stock.

Pushka: It's weird, if they don't get sold soon I'll buy them, they are constantly growing.
There is little risk involved in investing in companies form large nations because:
1) Their economies tend to stay constant, and their GDP grows with inevitable population growth
2) Big countries rarely die

I preffer to invest in smaller, newer nations. Although they have higher risk, they also have higher yields. If I invest in a 5 day old nation with a 'good' economic status, it is likely that status will improve along with their population for a much higher growth rate. This can be demonstarted by the incredible growth rate of Visara and Amgen due to my increase in the economic status from 'very good' to 'thriving,' population, and another factor.

Expect an update and news report by tommorow evening.

Hawdawg:

(100M* $18.91/share)=$1,891M - (100M * $30/share)= $3,000M= -$1,109M

Visara Co. Has purchased the following:

Urzalhad: 50M shares * $40.99/share = $2,049.5M
N.T.I. 150M shares * $49.39/share = $7,408.5M
Barbary Coast: 100M share * $3,172.35/share = $317,235M

ooc: My GDP took a leap, and I cut taxes from 57%-50% leaving Visara with a lot more breathing room

Monthly Stock Summary: (http://0201.netclime.net/1_5/P/E/7/News.mid)

The Bjornoyan economy continues to flourish. A cut in income taxes has given Visara even more capital to work with. It is rumored the Visara Corporation security forces now match those of the Bjornoyan Federal Government, but there is little concern within Bjornoya, seeing as Visara Co. CEO Wilhelm Kaufmann and the Patriarch Sedaht Rand have always been on good terms.

And those who hold stock in any Hawdawg based industries should be as surprised and delighted as I am. A huge jump was seen in all Hawdawg based markets over this last week, and only recently has the price increase begun to flatten.

Norway's Laksevag Naval Shipyards is still in the black, but barely. We hope some more large orders placed within their company will boost their standings.

After nearly three weeks of steady increase, Elephanti shares took a quick dive this week. Wither or not this trend will continue is further decreasing shareholder confidence.

And again Russian based N.T.I. and Uralzavod have shown a steady increase during the past month. Although their growth rate is not as high as other nations, the stability of this stock is becoming more undeniable.

And opposite the Russian corporations mirrored German based Kinetisch and Deustchesarbeit who maintained steady increases as well over the month.

Brinkman based Cuppric Co continues its radical fluxations, but its defense related Krotoshcen Co. has been on a steady increase ever since the conflict with Nuevo Rica. The conclusion of the conflict has left the USB with the realization it must further strengthen its military, and Krotoshcen Co is expected to benefit highly from this.

The conclusion of the Carthaginian Civil War has led to the emergence of Barbary Coast Company as the leading group of Carthage. This giant corporation faces many of the same complications as Visara Co, but it is stocks are expected to continually rise.

And last on our report, we have the introduction of defense giant Layarteb Defense Co. How the price of these shares will change is yet to be seen.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CONTACT: Johnathan West, Public Relations, LDC

The Layartebian Defense Corporation has just acquired unlimited production rights for the MT-80 Bulldog, an Alidorian V/STOVL aircraft that has replaced the V-22 Osprey in the Imperial Layartebian Military. The previous force of 3,000 Bulldogs, designated as the V-24, will be augmented by as many as 1,500 new aircraft. The $1.28T deal is a great leap forward for the LDC who now have complete and unlimited rights to an aircraft it heavily relies on. The V-24 Bulldog and the MT-80 are very different aircraft. The main differences lie in their weapons loading, avionics suite, engines, and their ECM systems. The LDC V-24 is seen as far superior to its original MT-80 model.

we would like to buy all remaining NTI Shares for our portfolio.

Also, can we replace the shares of Gulf Aero with some from Elephanti Logistical Storefront, and increase the number to 250,000. They would be preferred.

ooc: Can you guys do me a favor when you buy and sell, show the exact number of shares and the current selling price, it will make my job much easier. Thank you

Eleph: I will just change the name from Gulf Aero -> E.L.S. and add 1/4 million more shares available.

Just do what I do on my storefront

A "Do your own math" policy and if they don't, don't accept it.

OOC: Bjornoya, the respective Kinetisch and Deutschesarbeit stocks should jump in value for the following reasons:

1) Tank production is reaching an all-time high as the StuG-I is being produced. A total of 1.650 of these vehicles are to be produced. Each tank is valued at 15.8 million Reichsmarks [total estimated value has been placed at over 26 billion Reichsmarks].
2) A new assault rifle to replace the aging StG-31 for both the Reichswehr and the OS is being produced. Meaning over twelve million [not representative of army size] of these assault rifles valued at around 900 Reichsmarks each are being made [estimated cost has been placed at 10.8 billion Reichsmarks].
3) Four new Oblasts in Russia have been acquired and defenses [bunkers, missile sites, hangars, military bases, etc.] are being built [estimated cost has been placed at 18 billion Reichsmarks.
4) In the new Oblasts, the standardized German public transportation systems are being installed [subways, streetcars, buses, etc] and roads are being improved [estimated price has been placed at 22 billion Reichsmarks].
5) A new fighter is being researched and built currently [estimated cost has been placed at 5 billion Reichsmarks].

The total estimated spending cost of all projects combined has been placed at 81.8 billion Reichsmarks, 3/5 of this to be paid for by Kinetisch and 2/5 to be paid for by Deutschesarbeit. Needless to say, thousands of jobs have been created.

IC:

CEO Josef Fegelein of the giant Kinetisch Corporation announced this week that the corporation will be offering 1.850.000 shares available for immediate sale. Following the release of this information, CEO Günther Arbeit of the competitor of Kinetisch, the Deutschesarbeit Corporation, announced that 1.700.000 shares of stock in Deutschesarbeit will be available for immediate sale.

ooc: will make all around update tommorow, is 12:53, gonna sleep.

ooc:

*updated 12/21/05*

ooc: For those who are interested I've been doing this on a semi-'put and call' system focusing more on calls but without any specific time-frame or end selling pirce, so I guess it isn't but whatever. If you believe a stock price will drop you can make a profit by predicting so:

"A put is used by investors seeking to profit from a fall in stock prices. For example, an investor holding a put for a stock that declines in price is able to sell the stock at the higher price quoted in the put, thereby profiting by the amount the stock declines from the put price; if the stock price rises the investor can lose only the money used to purchase the put option. Puts and calls are generally written for one, two, three, or six months, although any period over 21 days is accepted."

Unfortunately I can not and will not keep track of days for you, you'll have to post when you want to excercise these rights, but using a put is an option.

Bjor,

1,850,000 shares available for sale in Kinetisch.

1,700,000 shares available for sale in Deutschesarbeit.

Should that be put in shares available, or do I not understand this? I didn't mean to sell all of my stocks, cause I'd like these corporations to bring in more money. So if I can get stocks up on the market for folks to buy, I would like to.

By the way, I forgot to mention two very important things.

Kinetisch is tied-in with the government, as is Deutschesarbeit.

Kinetisch is primarily responsible for military, scientific, and commercial research, development, and production.

Deutschesarbeit is primarily responsible from transportation, commercial, and defense research & production.

So, Kinetisch deals primarily with military & science while D.A. deals with transportation and commerce.

Now, according to the NS calculator you linked on the first page, I have the following based on government spending power:

Defense: $14,886,198,727,962 (33%)
Commerce: $3,608,775,449,203 (8%)
Public Transport: $3,157,678,518,053 (7%)
Healthcare: $1,353,290,793,451 (3%)
Education: $3,157,678,518,053 (7%)
Law & Order: $16,239,489,521,413 (36%)

Kinetisch is responsible for about 30% of all military research, and therefore receives, roughly, 4,465,859,618,390 Reichsmarks annually for researching and producing tanks, vehicles, planes, ships, submarines, small arms, missile systems, etc.

Since Kinetisch does not deal with Public Transportation, Education, nor Commerce at all, those three responsibilities are dealt with by Deutschesarbeit and the government. However, D.A. deals with these expenditures much more than the government, roughly 75%.

Therefore, Deutschesarbeit is awarded 7,443,099,363,980 Reichsmarks annually by the government to maintain roads, subways, street cars, buses, taxis, schools [partially government regulated], universities [partially government regulated], imports and exports [partially government regulated], libraries [partially government regulated].

Law & Order is primarily government regulated, but both D.A. and Kinetisch are involved in weapons research, law enforcement tactics, anti-terrorism, police research, and law enforcement commodity production.

Kinetisch and D.A. receive 40% of the government expenditures on Law & Order split between them unevenly.

Kinetisch receives 28%, while D.A. only receives 12%. However, the following receive the following amounts of money annually from the Reich for Law & Order:

Kinetisch: 4,547,057,065,996 Reichsmarks
Deutschesarbeit: 1,948,738,742,570 Reichsmarks

So...

Total Kinetisch annual spending power: 9,012,916,684,386 Reichsmarks or $16,764,025,032,958

Total Deutschesarbeit annual spending power: 9,391,838,106,550 Reichsmarks or $17,468,818,878,183

I'm not sure if this will have any affect on the worth of either companies, but I thought I would share that information. Both Kinetisch and Deutschesarbeit are not entirely free enterprises, but have a lot more money than I previously informed you of. Silly me.

I'd also like to have not sold all the stocks in those companies.

1 700 000 shares for D.A. and 1 850 000 shares for Kinetisch.

Note: The only reason Kinetisch would be worth more is because the government purchases the military & scientific programs it likes that the company develops. So not only does it receive a budget from the Reich, the Reichswehr, Luftwaffe, OS, Space Program, and Reichsmarine buy the projects it produces that are acceptable to them. Notably, Aachenium which was developed in a Kinetisch Lab by Dr. Heinz Jodl as well as the new standard assault rifle for the military and police. Not to mention the new tank, the StuG-I.

I thought this information would be important for you to know, since you're the stock guy. :)

Bjor,

1,850,000 shares available for sale in Kinetisch.

1,700,000 shares available for sale in Deutschesarbeit.

Should that be put in shares available, or do I not understand this?

ooc: Sorry man, totaly forget, so many calculations...
*re-editted*

Achtung Bjornoya!

I made a major edit to my last post. Some VERY important information I had forgotten to give you. I have no idea how it slipped my mind. Will it affect the value of Kinetisch and Deutschesarbeit?

Oh, would you mind hopping on AIM so you can explain this whole stock thing to me a bit more?

Lay: Depends, what stocks did you buy? BTW, giving your stocks a boost, approximatelly 5% for all these new innovations and such. Considering you're already at your full potential, these new technologies will be the most effective way to increase the value of stock based in the Empire.

Hawdawg: I'm not sure how I could fit the split in except by doubling the amount of shares each person who bought stock in Hyball had and halving the value. Since the growth rate by my calculations seems to be geometrical, I don't think this would have any effect on the stock's values by the way I calculate things (which is obviously very simplified in comparison to RL, if a stock split its overall value would go up) I propose something like when someone wishes to sell their stock in Hyball they receive something like 10%-20% more of their overall profit stock if they bought it before the split occured.

NG: $46.91/share * 100M shares - $18.76/share * 100M shares = $2,815M

Here at the BISE we know you have a choice in stock exchanges and we assure you that you have made the wise choice. Thank you for doing business with us.

OOC- Ok im kinda clueless with stocks but anyways....

Two companies in Pantheaa have become interested in investing in the BISE.


Cossack Sec- Cossack security makes tasers, pepper spray, riot gear and most of anything that can be used by Police. They represent about 14% of Pantheaa's 35%Defense budget.(3rdGeek)

185,000 stock for sell starting at $40 per share

Scholar pub.- A publication that produces novels both for entertainment and for education. It makes up about 7% of the 14% Education budget.(3rdGeek).

85,000 stock for sell starting at $32 per share

The Empire would like to offer the following "new" stock option:

Umbrella Corporation: The Umbrella Corporation is a very powerful and very large medical research corporation in the Empire. Their work mainly involves finding the cures for incurable diseases and they are the leading maufacturer of vaccines for various human and animal diseases. Umbrella has had a very clean record throughout time.

Stocks Available: 200,000,000 (200M)
Starting Price: $120.92 ea

Unlike the LDC, Umbrella is not a state enforced monopoly but one of only two biomedical companies within the Empire. Top Secret IC: Umbrella is responsible for most of the Empire's bioweaponry program.

The LDC has recieved a $316.585B contract to build 3 CVBGs and 2 CVEGs for the ILN.

I'd like to offer the following stock options:

Hirgizstanian Motor Corporation (HM): This is the largest car manufacturing company in the COH and has recently signed a multi-million dollar contract with Pantheaa, which should bring in much foreign revenue. HM has twelve 'badges' under the corporate name and provides vehicles to the Government and Military.

Stocks Avaliable: 150,000,000 (150M)
Starting Price: $210.91

INDIAN Motor Company: The INDIAN Motor Co. is the second largest car company in the COH, and, like HM, has recently signed a multi-million dollar contract with Pantheaa. The INDIAN Motor Co. provides cars to Government Departments and Law Enforcement Agencies. INDIAN Motor Co. also have a monopoly on sports cars with their Wolf ZX and Falcon cars being two of the fastest production cars in the world.

Stocks Avaliable: 100,000,000 (100M)
Starting Price: $180.75

The Kingdom would like to purchase 100 million shares in Umbrella Corporation, 50 million shares in Hirgizstanian Motor Corporation and 40 million shares in INDIAN. The total cost will be 29.8675 billion, which has been wired.

Hold up peoples, gonna fix somethings. I must've been misinformative, I'm gonna re-arrange what was posted partly to make it more realistic in comparision to other stocks and partly to help me with calculations. 1st, starting prices will be multiples of ten. Makes my life so much easier.

Lay: For Umbrella I'm gonna start it at $30/share and sell 200M shares. Comparing it to a company such as Amgen and Kinetisch which does almost the same thing it should be somewhat close to that.

Hirgy: I'm gonna ask you to choose one of the two. I tie a company's growth to the nation's overall spending amount in a certain tax bracket (in this case transportation/commerce) Since these two sell the same things they'd have the same growth rate, making them two identical companies but with different starting prices. If you could make one more 'commerce' related and one more 'transport' related I'll put both up. Like have one of them in charge of various types of vehicles (planes, trains etc.) and infastructure construction as well (linked to transportation) while the other is more concentrated soley in the exchange of automobiles (linked to commerce)

Ok, put INDIAN in the commerce sector, and HM in the other one, as one of its badges also makes civilian aircraft, while another badge makes buses.

We would like to sell 100M of newly created ENERGOTRUST shares at 72 dollars per share. The ENERGOTRUST is an energy company. It deals with sale, transition and acquisition of all sorts of energy materials including coal, oil and natural gas. All of the companies that deal with production, transition or acquisition of energy resources are now assets of ENERGOTRUS. In addition to that where are rumors flying around that ET might be involved in major projects with nation of Panthea, the United Eurasian Republic and there is a strong possibility that it will be involved with other nations of the Voronej Cooperation Organization

Russian Federation ministry of commerce.

Umbrella is definitely closer to the LDC than those two. They have a lot of divisions that are public but very unknown, especially their research sector with Ebola and Marbug.

Same restrictions apply to it as LDC. Basically we just don't sell to the Russian Federation.

I also want to add Manchurian Global Corporation. They are equivalent to RL Haliburton. They'll have 18,612,400 shares at $78.93 per share. They're a big governmental contractor and usually get contracts to rebuild republics and lands taken over by the Empire after war has ravaged them. Ireland, Peru, Yucatán, and other places have all been fixed by them.

Bjornoya, can you add my car companies to the list?

Hawdawg: 149M Shares of Amgen purchased at $55.76/share= $8308.24M

10M share of Barbary sold at $3,373.18/share = $33,731.8M- $31,484.7M= $2,247.1M
Uralzavod: 50M * $43.53/share = $2176.5M - (initial purchase cost?)= profit
N.T.I.: 50M * $52.23/share = $2611.5M - (initial purchase cost?)= profit

Pantheaa: Stocks added

Layarteb: Umbrella added

Hirgizstan: Indian added, there's a problem at the moment you are spending 0% on Public Transport leaving a profit margin undefinable since I would be dividing by zero. It might be better to add a company from a different area such as defense or education. Tell me what you decide, I'd be happy to put it up.

Pushka: I cannot put a company under three seperate nations into the BISE, calculating the profit would be a huge pain in the ass. I'd have to take almost 10 times the amount of work than with a single company. IF it could be based primarily in one country I could do it otherwise sorry.

New Rule: I spent over half an hour doing these calculations and typing their results. I cut out the %Change to save some time, but it simply isn't enough. From now on a country can only put up 2 companies within their country in the BISE to help with efficiency.

BTW Cuppric went out of business by my calculations so it has been removed and replaced with Windhoek. USB you can just say your government already has purchased those stocks. The profits received for owning stocks from a company in your nation will be equal to not having them simply because the growth rates are exactly the same either way.

It is based in my country though, i am just going to have projects with Panthea and Marimia.

In which case it would be violating the 2 companies/country rule.

Lets say NTI has merged with Uralzavod and only NTI is left.

The Kingdom of Norway would like to buy 10 million shares in Umbrella Corporation. The cost for this is calculated to come to $789.3 million. The money has been wired.

10M shares of Umbrella purchased for $60/share = $600M

I see your point. Public Transport is handled by Private Companies, so I'll
leave HM out.
Also, the INDIAN name should be all caps.

Hirgizstanian Defense Armament Corporation: This company is the largest Defense Contractor in the COH. It is a truly massive company employing millions of people across the Commonwealth. Its products include Jet Engines, Small Arms, Artillery, Armoured Vehicles and Software for Military applications. Its contracts with the Government usually run into the hundreds of Billions of dollars, and its profits are regularly over the $500 Billion mark. Its projected profit for the next quarter is expected to be $155 Billion.

Stocks Avaliable: 300,000,000M
Stock Price: $650.00 each.

Fair enough.

Hawdawg:
Uralzavod: 50M * $43.53/share = $2176.5M - (initial purchase cost?)= profit
N.T.I.: 50M * $52.23/share = $2611.5M - (initial purchase cost?)= profit

Initial purchase cost Uralzavod $40.17 (Total Profit $168 Million)

Initial purchase cost NTI $48.41 (Total Profit $191 Million)

Total Profit from the above sales $2,606,100,000 Billion USD

The LDC has just recieved a contract worth $70.1B to build Emperor Class ASN and Hampton Class AON ships to replace all aging Emory Land AS and Henry Kaiser AS class ships.

Question:

What effect will the war with the Russians have on the BISE?

What war?

There are changes however, as this is my storefront I demand civility both ICly and OOCly here and on other sites. I don't mind having stocks of people I'm on unfriendly terms ICly here, I do mind trading stocks with people who call me 'pussy bitch' OOCly here.

Isn't a war going to take place with Tyrandis and Russians and Bjor is somewhere in it or im just really dyslexic

Not dyselxic, just not up to date. Talked Russia out of war for the moment. Now have to figure out what to do with Tyrandis.

When you get a shot can you let me know what my profits are so I can update my budget book. I might want to buy something. ;)

I would like to puchase 100,000,000 shares in HDAC.

@Lay: You'll have to find me what you originally purchased, how many shares, and for what price and I'll find your profit.

@Huahin: 100M shares of HDAC purchased for $61.01/share = $6,101M

Black Friday: February 17, 2006: Great Stock Market Crash of 2006 (http://0101.netclime.net/1_5/4/A/J/Hollow.mid)

Today marks the worst stock market crash in the history of the BISE. Millions lost their life savings, businesses went or are on the verge of bankruptcy, and only a handful of nations have been left unaffected by this catastrophe.

The Holy Republic of Hawdawg was one of the hardest hit with stock prices in many businesses in the sectors of defense and commerce and commerce nearly hitting rock bottom, saved by the closing bells.

Similarly defense related businesses in Norway and all those working beside them were drastically hit, nearly severing prices in half with 40% losses.

Elephanti oil and defense suffered a similar fate with a drop of nearly 30%. Thousands of jobs were lost as commerce screeched to a halt. Ships full of precious oil sat idle, not knowing what to do as hundreds of orders were cancelled at the last minute.

Germanian infrastructure and medical corporations could no longer afford their much needed oil imports. Construction and research came to a halt and emergency sessions were called by prominent business members within the Reich to resolve the crisis.

The United States of Brink felt the shock waves of the crash but not as heavily as the rest of the world. Immediate tax cuts in defense and education by the administration spared many losses before the crash could take its toll.

Carthaginian merchants lost many international business opportunities resulting in a minor drop. The overall effect of the crash is yet to be seen.

Layartebian businesses with the exception of those in the defense sector suffered to a lesser degree, dropping nearly 20%.

The only economies holding steadfast during the crash were Pantheaan, Hirizstani, and the resilient Bjornoyan corporations who not only held the line but made a profit during the crash.

Causes of the crash are obvious; continuous threats of war between TOA and Russia along with the threat of Tyrandis destabilizing Africa and cutting off precious natural resources to the rest of the world. The Layartebian nuclear testing resulted in the very first stages of the crash, leading many to believe the numerous doomsday scenarios. Consumer and stockholder confidence plummeted. The inefficiency of the world’s governments to confront the issue compounded matters as world leaders turned a blind eye to the coming crisis to focus on Elephant populations, constructing 1,000 mile long bridges, pirates, nuking islands, and finding a cure for AIDS.

OOC: WTF! How did you make that happen? I haven't done anything against my issues (which are frozen at the moment and has been for a few weeks now). It's got to be faulty math.

ooc: Cot, no offense but Lakesvag has been struggling for a while. Always been about 10% below starting prices, a few occasions went 5% above.

Issues are only one way to change the calculators' results for your nations' economy. There may have been other influences as well.

@Lay: 688,150-240,770= $447,380M profit
Cuppric = bankrupt $-1,891M

Total profit= $445,489M

Official Press Release from the Ministry of Commerce

The Kingdom of Norway would like to remind the people that the stock market crash last week has no real effect on the everyday life. You should all continue with your lives, continuing your works, and buy and sell items like nothing ever happened. This will help maintain our economy, as the crash mainly affected the military portion of the budget. We will work actively to help restore the economy in those areas, and for that, we need your help. We need you to help our national economy by buying Norwegian goods. We need to keep the economy flowing.

We also wish to adress all our trading partners and assure you that we have not spiraled into anarchy and disrepair. We are still a healthy trading partner, well capable of offering our goods at competition prices. We wish to strengthen the bonds with our trading partners, and are offering north sea oil at $12 per barrel, as well as all vessels at Laksevag Naval Shipyards at prices 20 percent below the going price (yes, all ships at Laksevag now costs only 80% of the original price, but only for the duration of this crisis). We are hoping that this will kick-start our struggling shipbuilding business.


Secret Message to BISE from said Ministry
Additionally, we wish to sell 50% of our remaining stocks in Amgen in order to get sufficient funds for the economic reforms required to get the economy back on track.

"Im as mad as hell and im not going to take it anymore”

About 8:00 in the morning a throng of angry protesters arrived at the steps BISE. The protesters are former Panthean Indian employees joined with members of Bjornoya far left Organizations. Chanting slogans and shouting “f the corporate pigs” they group made quiet a scene at the BISE. Hoping to attract media attention they had one objective. Bring down the Indian Corporation through a peaceful demonstration. But if it had to get violet then so be it. These people had no jobs and they had nothing to lose.

Boris Winters, the representative of the unemployed workers had this to say during the rally. “This industry decides to close its doors WITHOUT NO WARNING to the workers and the Panthean government. They close their plants because they think there is a hidden Sanction against Pantheaa that says that our beloved nation can’t expand into OUR HOMELAND OF EUROPE, EVEN THOUGH WE ARE NATIVE SLOVAKIANS THAT WERE EXILED FROM OUR HOMELAND!!!” his voice rising at the every end.

The crowd which arrive just yesterday was full of life. They told the international reporters that they demand a meeting between Union workers and the Indian corporation. Unless demands were met they would continue to cause a ruckus wherever they were. Whether it be Hirg, Bjornoya or Pantheaa. They would continue on protesting until the
BISE was forced to close down their doors.

Panthean law makers are already furious with the Indian corporation. “This business never informed us that they will be closing their doors because of our foreign policy.”said Natasha Essamen a top ranking member of the New Democratic party. “Their sudden and shift actions without any talks have shown a complete lack for their workers. It should concern every nation around the world when a industry suddenly closes their doors without talking to the government. This kind of action demonstrates a core evil of capitalism. They have broken the contract with us and their workers” she continued.

But in the long run the closing down of these plants may have hurt the Indian corporation the most. Being a former 3rd world nation and having very little environment or workers rights, Pantheaa is still the paradise of businesses everywhere.

Since it was our business closures that have caused this upsurge in rioting we would be willing to bring a team of non-Government Strike Breakers to disperse the crowds, should they pose a threat to Bjornoya, although I don't see how beseiging your embassy in Pantheaa could possibly close the BISE, which is located elsewhere. The Pantheaans are a strange people indeed.

COH


OOC: Pantheaa, my economy is Corporativist, the Government decided to step in and close those factories once it had received the go ahead from the Company reps in the Department of Corporations. Its your own fault. And none of the cars made in Pantheaa were to be used anywhere else but Pantheaa, thus it won't hurt the companies all that much, especially considering the Pantheaan market was the smallest. Your workers are the ones who will suffer.

Also, we needn't worry about USB, he is a trusted nation and has gone through the proper channels to ensure his takeover of Lichtenstein was above board, unlike you.

Okay give me 75,000,000 shares @ 83.60 each so $6.27B

Transaction confirmed, thank you for choosing the BISE and we wish you the best of luck with your recent acquisition.

Sincerely,
BISE Coordinator
Jamous Hinderman

ooc: Panth, start again. 1st, there is no chance in hell we'd allow a group of non-business, non-tourist, and non-family related individuals access to Bjornoya. Seeing as Visara has a complete monopoly on incoming aerial transportation (with the exception of private jets owned by wealthy businessmen) they wouldn't make it.
2nd the Bjornoyan mainland has no far left, and no protestors. No-one in their right mind would dare use a work break to protest. There hasn't been an organized protest on the Bjornoyan mainland in decades.
3rd: Seeing as Visara owns all lines of communication it is unlikely the protest would make the news. If anything its publication would have to come from a documentation written on a piece of toilet paper and shoved up someone's ass on the way out of the country, and that's if you're lucky, we check that shit (pardon the pun).
4th: Why exactly the BISE? We're a stock exchange, not the employer.

OOC-
1) They never revealed themselves as protesters till they got to that place
2) How can you have no one with different political beliefs. How can you say that their is no protesting in your country when their is protesting in every country. To say that is unrealistic...everyone in every nation as far and moderate beliefs. Thats a cop out argument by you
3) I might except this seeing that major corporations do own media outlets in real life (and in real life always give negative news to strikes) But it would still show up in the media of other countries. Look at the Tinanmen square massacre as an RL example
4) We are protesting that too as stated in the post.

IC-

To: Norway

Shame and you for refering to peaceful protesters as Terriorist!!! They have done no violet crime and are merely practicing their liberties. Your offical message shows the very lack of concern for people. Where you favor Darwin capitalism over the labor force when you state that you want them removed before your stocks fall.


ooc-
You people are making me sick, the BIG war is going on next week you can be dam sure about that. No friends no problem. You supported a government that shut its door down WITH NO WARNING whats so ever, a business that never stated that political foreign policy could result in layoffs.

This is just anti-Panthean feelings in an era when i reformed my nation because of international pressure..and i still get treated like a bastard child. Anti-Panthean feelings will lead to war and a mass Ethnic cleansing!!!

ooc: 1) They would have needed proof of their intentions to enter Bjornoya before being allowed in the country, and they would have needed to file lots of paperwork. Think its unrealistic? Ask my brother-in-law who spent 6 months mailing paperwork and pictures to the US government to prove he was in fact married to my sister.
2) In the Bjornoyan mainland we have no protests and no political parties in the normal sense of the word due to our educational system, language scheme, and economic system none of which allows for dissent (read the factbook). Never said anything about elsewhere in the country (i.e. Africa where protests are common) We are not like any other country in E2 nor in the real world and do not wish to be RPed as such.
3) No-one will hear you.
4) Whatever, your protestors are not acting very rationally if they think coming to Bjornoya will get them their jobs back.

Outside the BISE: (http://0201.netclime.net/1_5/Q/8/W/BISE.mid)

Annoyed Bjornoyans quickly filed complaints to the Federal Peacekeepers within Geopolis. As soon as the intent of the foreigners was determined all citizens from Pantheaa on incoming flights to Bjornoya were detained at the airports, and all future flights from Pantheaa to Bjornoya and vice-versa were cancelled. Such incidents were intolerable within Bjornoya.

Before the protest could come full-force the Federal Peacekeepers had blocked off all incoming and outgoing traffic from the 14th Street block where the BISE was located. As the protests grew more and more out of hand and irrational the Feds brought out the big guns; mortars that would fire mortar rounds containing Hallonacht, an anesthetic that contained a propofol/fentany mixture that would knock any nearby unconscious within seconds of inhalation. The gas descended smoothly and swiftly on the poorly equipped protestors and later down the evacuated block where it was dispersed through various routes set-up by the peacekeepers, sending the heavy gas harmlessly into the depths of the Geopolis sewer system.

Within the hour the protestors were rounded up and brought to the local re-education facilities where they would spend most of their time until anyone took notice of their disappearance. Such racketeering, as the Bjornoyans called it, was a capital offense within Bjornoya. Fate would not look kindly upon those foolish enough to set foot on Bjornoyan soil.

Secret Message Sent to Norwegian, Huahin, and Hirgizstani Governments:

We thank you for your support and gestures but those who break Bjornoyan laws in Bjornoyan territory must face Bjornoyan sentences for their crimes. Those who follow the path of the righteous shall always remain, but if they fall as Lucifer fell, they shall fall in flames. The lawless pose just as much a threat to the healthy citizens of Bjornoya as terrorists or hostile armies, and shall be dealt with accordingly.

-The Will

Well this might be a good time to encourage everyone to invest in Cossack security systems. Cossack makes tasers, riot gear, gas, and pellet guns. Perfect for breaking up any peaceful demostration...so when you think protester think Cossack!!!

From Panthean government

Fine then...
We are encouraging businesses throughout Bjornoya, Hirgizstan and Huahin to close their doors and lay off their workers. It may or might not happen because unlike SOME COUNTRIES panthean businesses are actually seperated from the government.

But we since the corporate contribution is god in capitalist democracy. Im sure they will be more willing to go along with our plans

That and we plan for various tariffs on these nations

OOC: There are no Pantheaan business' or citizens in the COH. You've been on a watch list for ages. I'm an isolationist nation, very few foreigners are welcome, and even fewer foreign investors. In fact, only TOA and a select few other nations have business' and citizens in the COH. Perhaps you should check people's fact books once in a while.

ooc-
So in other words you're a 3rd world nation..
How is it that you can support all of your territories, a large military and social programs with just a few select business investments. The United States can't even make a surplus economy with a lassiez faire economics yet you can? The amount of money that you spend on the people in your state and various colonies would surely surpass any amount of money you take in. Your military either has to be extremity small or outdated. Cause your not going to sustain an economy with the 5 or so nations of TOA

Then you expect nations outside of your broaders to invest in your businesses when you engage in unfair comptetion by not allowing free trade in your broaders. You expect other nations to prop up your business but will not aid others. You wanted to build an Indian business inside Pantheaa but in turn would not allow Pantheaa to build inside Hirgizstan

But i see your going at, you joined the TOA so that you and a few nations can have a global monopoly on the trade industry. In turn forcing you and other nations to set the global prices and force non-TOA's to buy. Keep talking the case for war is building up

<snip>
Keep talking the case for war is building up
Good luck in the upcoming campaign. Operation 'Commie Kill' is about to start...

ooc: Real world there are 188-192 nations in the world. In E2 we got about 35, leaving the possibility of vast ammounts of resources being within a single country. Its not the number of naitons you are trading with that matters, its how much capital you are able to produce.

The existence of a corporation like Visara has no RL equivalent, trying to compare RL economics with E2 economics (or better NS economics) will lead to gross inconsistencies not matter where you look. I'd blame NS standards rather than each-other for the way economics is presented in NS and E2.

Surplus economy? Its because we are so powerful economically that we can go into debt, people trust the dollar. Hirgy is doing pretty much the same strategy that Visara does, sets up shop in other naitons when it can but tries its best to keep other companies outside its own borders, its a natural occurence, no need to gripe about it.

My nation was never informed of this when i invited Indian into my industry. Once again the charges that my nation is bringing to the table, is that Hirg's company brefily shut down without proper warning or any written contract stating they would shut down soley based on a nation's foreign policy. Regardless if his government and businesses are interwoven, the sudden and abrupt layoff of poor blue collar workers of Pantheaa should be dealt with in accordance. Because the government and business are interwoven in Hirgizstan. I see this as a direct political conspiracy by certain groups within the Hirgizstan adminstration. I see this political move to cut off the free speech of Pantheaa government and an effort to prusue are long lost goal of returning home

Don't forget when i was invading by North Germania years ago and he backmailed me out of Slovakia...i stated that this was going to be the basis of future Panthean politics. I wasn't shitting around...i play this like
a real life sim. And my exiled people are looking for any ways to get home

OOC: Pantheaa, just look up what corporativist means, and remember, I take business from more than five nations, but even so, the TOA is an economic power house, as am I. This is not the Real world, so stop acting like it is and listen to Bjornoya.

And one more thing, either put up, or shut up.

Official Apology from the Republic of Pantheaa

The Republic would like to apologized for recent actions concerning the Indian corporation and the Republic's involvement in Lichtenstein. Understand that we are only looking out for the interest of our own people and mean the international community no harm. We also understand that in a Liberal(ooc- the classic definition) democratic world, a business should have liberty to build wherever they desire.

Geopolis Courthouse: (http://0401.netclime.net/1_5/Z/R/4/220%20-%20Hollow%20Bastion.mp3)

Crime in the Bjornoyan mainland was virtually non-existent. The harsh sentences reduced crime not so much as a deterrent, but instead worked because it either eliminated criminals or stopped them from reproducing, leaving them castrated and impotent.
The perpetrators should have paid attention to the countless signs shown at every entrance to the Bjornoyan mainland. Over every major thoroughfare, at every port and every airport in the esoteric Bjornoyan language was written for all to see, “Those who falter and those who fall must pay the price,” a seething reminder of the economic system that is justice.

The Sentencing (excerpts):

The People vs. [Insert Strike Leaders’ Names Here]

A jury of 7 Bjornoyan citizens selected amongst the populace for their superior knowledge of the Bjornoyan judicial system has found you guilty of organizing and instigating a revolt against citizens of the Patriarchal Federation of Bjornoya, for attempting to use threats and racketeering to receive an unfair economical advantage over others, for illegally entering Bjornoyan territory on false pretenses and for disturbing the peace as outlined in sections Alpha-56, 78, 123, Gamma 45, 132, and Delta 8, 56, 89 of the Bjornoyan Law as defined by The Word.
The Patriarchal Federation of Bjornoya hereby sentences each of you to death by lethal injection for your crimes. Executions shall take place between 3-20 and 3-30 of 2006.

Visara Corporation vs. [Insert Ex-INDIAN Employees' Names Here]

A jury of 7 Bjornoyan citizens selected amongst the populace for their superior knowledge of the Bjornoyan judicial system has found you guilty of participating in a revolt against employees of the Visara Corporation and for disrupting the economy as outlined in section Theta 23, 45, 82, 109, and Kappa 23, 78 of the Bjornoyan Law as defined by The Word.
The Patriarchal Federation of Bjornoya hereby orders the defendants to pay the plaintiff a total of 10,000,000 Geld due to lost revenue for disrupting the economy. If the defendants cannot produce the payment within the week they shall repay their debt with their labor.

Can i have a appeal, please

Reply from The Word

For trials occuring after the revolution there are no appeals. The Bjornoyan judicial system has been infalliable since the ascendency of the Patriarch to Head of State. Within Bjornoya we have created a utopia which we are more than willing to kill and die for. It is our sworn duty to protect the citizens of Bjornoya from any and all chaos within our borders. We are The Word, and in Bjornoya we are Law. We will not be mocked.

-The Word


Reply from Visara Corporation

We do not see what there is to complain about. The incompotent leadership has been dealt with accordingly, and the ex-employees are about to all get their jobs back. Isn't that what they wanted in the first place? They shall find working for Visara Corporation to be an exciting career change which will look great on their resumes. Depending on their skills and determination most of the employees will have repaid their portion of the debt to the Corporation within 5 years.

It should be noted that certain groups within the Republic are pissed that you plan to execute the Union members. Since we have no death penalty here...
You may want to watch out for terrorist attacks in the future Bjornoya. It seems that something wicked this way comes

Who said you will hear anything about their sentences or fates? Bjornoyan judicial procedures are kept out of public eyes for fear of the masses' unwanted interference, and Visara owns all communication lines. And we are executing the strike leaders, not everyone. The rest should be clear in about 5 years when they have repaid the debt for the damage they caused.

As for terrorist threats, it is a good thing you're currently being attacked by NG, Cotland, Hirgy, and Visara: yeah in case you haven't noticed:
