That was the thrust of my earlier post. I intend to get that info. There are two ways to look at this. I know what I want to say, but can't find the proper analogy. Let me try, but consider I'm groping.
Let's say that Microsoft, with billions of revs and millions of profits, has an engineer who discovers the greatest mousetrap in the world. I mean, mice within 50 yds will die. Microsoft sells them around the world at $5.00 each. The traps are a tremendous success. However, the profits from them only add 1/8 of 1 % to the Microsoft bottom line. This supposed great invention would not impact the Microsoft shareholders.
Apply this same ridiculous analogy to a small company and the profits of the trap could have a major impact on the bottom line and stock price.
Now with MMG, we have to find out the percentage of profits, and the growth of the individual segments of this conglomerate. Then, as experts :-), we must guess not only how the wireless is marketed, it's potential in Europe, but also how much the wireless will affect the bottom line and when !!
Hell, after reading that assignment, I scared myself. This is an interesting opportunity. As a newcomer to this thread, and you overlooking my temporary ignorance to the particulars, the investment by Kluge should be looked at in the same way as if Warren Buffett was in it.
Now Warren Buffett is---------------you don't really think I'd do that , do you ?
