Interesting POV, Jim. I'm sure there are lots of people who missed collecting LFWK-SLJB when it was subpenny who feel that way now. The rather considerable group of Longs riding Free Shares certainly seem to be in a good position to continue rolling the dice a while longer.
The Big-8 audited financials are expected sometime this week, and with that information in hand some rational B-S-or-H decisions can be made.... With either KPMG's or Price Waterhouse Coopers' signature on the bottom of the SLJB report (..vs. some no-name outfit like Finkel, Schtinkel & Schmooze of Bayone - CPAs, PC, LLC, Ltd and Going Out of Business Store, Inc...), SLJB may have a little more credibility than your average CMKX, MLON, NCDP, or MYNG perhaps.
Based on 'nothing verifiable', I think it will certainly be interesting to see what SLJB actually does with its cement contract, building materials sales in the Midesast and their EU and UAE construction projects. And, in all the years I've known you and been around SI, etc., I've never heard Petar V being a 'mover-&-shaker' or player with any other company before. Devries on the other hand fell off the LFWK paper trail long before the current Power-at-Be put Dennis Ammerman out to pasture. I believe I'd be a lot more concerned it some recidivist pinkie stock schmuck like Tony, Mario Pino, Uncle Urbie, or that Canadian CD-slinging slimeball, Thedosio Pangia, were found peeking out from under the woodpile.
"..Ha ha ha ha ha..... If we were to rule out all the fellows in stockdom who have Henry Kissinger or latent Clintwit tendencies when it comes to the Elizabeth Ray barfly re-runs in the Sunshine-up-your-tushie State, life would become very boring or very short of potential heroes..!!! Concurrently, you just never know when you might puncture a high-dollar Pirelli on your pricey Italian Squirtgun by running over a beach shell that somebody dropped in a crosswalk - while speeding down A1A after a South Florida snow storm......
