_______________________________ I know that a company or individual that obtains more than 10% of a company must report it by law. It seems as though they quietly obtained 10% then went and made a deal to buy another 4%. I don't know if they have inside information but any time someone goes out and buys such a large chunk of a company that can't be considered bad. I wonder if there are some takeover plans in the works?
