Hi, This company is following much the same pattern as a stock I
used to own, Boston Chicken. As in this case management, sold lots
of stock at inflated prices to expand and make acquisitions. Also
as in this case, when info about unconventional bookkeeping surfaced,
a lot of investors decided to take a wait and see attitude. I'm
sure that you are aware that the stock is now about 1/10 of it's
high. In the aggregate investors lost a fortune.
I'm not suggesting that CDs' share price will decline anything near
this much. But until these clouds start to clear I believe investors are going to mostly avoid this issue. A person who has large holdings in this co. just might be wise to lighten up their position
for now, and put the money to better use elsewhere.
