re: Spec Play - HGRAF

Posted by PlanoPrivateer on 3/2/26 at 4:44 pm to
Haven't been paying attention today, out of town helping a family member. I checked this evening and HGRAF is close to 10% of my trading account. I'm uncomfortable when any one stock gets to that level, but...... I may have to make an exception.
Edge wasn't working. I had this problem before. Now can get in with a new browser.
Thanks. I just checked it again and still get that messsage. I'll have to give them a call if my information isn't available by tomorrow morning.
Anyone getting this message when you log into your Fidelity account?

We're sorry, positions information is temporarily unavailable. We're urgently working to restore service.

How? Isn’t this not available for premarket since it’s not listed l?

I trade on Fidelity. Premarket it doesn't show a dollar amount price, but it does show a premarket percentage. So, you can do the math based on yesterday's closing price.

HGRAF info

Open link

Go down to "Management Information Circular" and click on the PDF under 2026

Go down to section 6 which for my format is on page 24

I tried to cut and paste but it was too many characters. Hope this works.

I go to the LSU website, baseball, today's game and listen live.
I remember hearing that Valentines Day is the right time to put down preemergent but without fertilizer. Follow up with another application in 30 to 45 days.

The course is nice, I don't know if it was $360 nice but it was in great shape. Not a tough course, but those greens are a bitch. Very few straight putts.
I'd agree with this. Not lot of trees but some nice elevation changes especially for north Texas. Fairways are wide. I think I only missed one during my only time playing. It has 6 tee boxes so you should be able to find one that fits your game. Staff was very nice.

The par three has lights so you can play it at night. It is more of a pitch and putt then a typical par three. I think the longest hole is 100 yards.

Yes, Frisco raised the rate water rate by 6% this year. Average was $136. Highest was $207 in both July and August. Lowest was $96 in January. I have a lawn sprinkler system and usage, of course, depends on rainfall and high temperature. This year I hand the yard resodded with Zoysia and watered it like crazy.

My wife and I are in our mid 70s and have to take Required Minimum Distributions every year. The percentage increases each year. I am really, really, really happy I don't have to take RMDs on our Roths.

Google Visa student credit cards. Make sure they start with a very low credit limit like $500.00.

They’re actually a functioning business so for $400 why not?


I have 3000 of roll the dice shares of FGPHF with a $0.07 average cost. I am accumulating more HGRAF every week. Also, considering GMGMF since it is coming off its recent runup. There is a foreign settlement fee on each GMGMF transaction so if I jump in it will be a fairly large (for me) number of shares.
I just saw a video on channel 5 NBC Dallas. It did not show the accident. It was taken on a home's security camera. It showed the Jeep pulling the sled on the street in front of the home. Seconds later it showed them on a perpendicular street where the Jeep had taken a left turn. You could see the left turn because there appears to be a park of some type directly across the street from the house.

It looks to me like the Jeep was going between 5 and 10 miles per hour tops when it passed in front of the house. It definitely slowed down when it took the left turn. He must have been going faster than what I observed when the accident occurred sometime after that.

I second the S&P 500 Index or go with Total Stock Market Index. Fidelity, Schwab and Vanguard all have very low-cost index funds.
Brown has a little Honey Badger in him with those moves.

Recent Interview with CEO

Alot of this will not be new to those that follow HGRAF. I found the following interesting.

Now up to 70 active customer projects. Can't disclose because of Non-Disclosure Agreements.

Overwhelmingly defense based business.

Targeting Nasdaq uplist in April.

Austin headquarters to open in February.

Open larger scale production facility by the end of 2026.

Operating at 80% margin.
I paid $2.09 earlier this week at Costco in Frisco Texas. Just checked their website and is currently #2.01.

I'm a big believer in having both Traditional and Roth. One thing I haven't seen mentioned is that Roths are not subject to Required Minimum Distributions. Between Social Security and RMDs from our Traditional IRAs we have more than we need to live comfortably.

Let the Roths grow and know they are available in case of a severe emergency with no negative tax consequences.
