GANT -- Thank you for your considered opinion.
Having developed and implemented a number of successful marketing programs in the past for companies in Chapter 11 and other turnaround situations, as well as having built and run a successful corporation (with primary clients like NASA and leading companies in the nuclear utility and offshore energy industries) from the ground up prior to selling out in order to devote more time to my family, I delude myself with the notion that I have some level of demonstrated expertise in this area.
Likewise, having been an active equities investor for more than 25 years, I also feel that I've developed a sense of the market place, particularly since I 'apprenticed' by working one level removed from one of the worlds' richest men for several years, and still maintain loose ties to several 'names' in the financial and business communities that are universally recognized in all but the most remote Third World countries.
As to my investment in ACEL shares, on this count you are on target. I originally purchased a thousand shares on a whim, over lunch, more than 10 years ago... when the share price and volume were both considerably higher than now. If it had represented a larger investment, more than just a flyer, I probably would have looked more closely AND NOT INVESTED AT ALL. However, as I began to look at the investment, I became intrigued and have followed ACEL ever since. Therefore, I don't believe that you have any right to question my investment basis any more than I would question yours or anyone else's in specific.
As to "lambasting" the company, I think that I've been fairly supportive, considering what I'm actually capable of. I would hope that Donna and others at ACEL would in fact agree with my assessment.
As to encouraging your sense of humor, I'm pleased that I could be of assistance to you also. Have a nice day. --JOHN M. JENCO
Incidentally, WHO are you? Your SI registration information is remarkably vague, although it is quite interesting that your msn.com ID shares the same initials (rpg) as the other contributor to this forum with whom you are aligned. |
