Barron's is a highly respected publication. The question that comes to mind is why are they printing this drivel? By doing so, Dirks has accomplished part of his goal, ie the stock is now down almost two points today.

Since I am new to this stock some questions for the thread:

How confident are those on this thread about the voracity of the CNC accounting methods now that Barrons has given credence to Dirks claims?

Since loans are guaranteed to those insiders buying stock, how much should this factor really contribute to our buy,hold,sell decision?

Doesn't the refusal of CNC management to address this "idiot" and dismiss his claims bother any other holders of this stock?

How far will the stock price drop, and what will trigger a recovery?

Trying to make a decision on whether to hold on or bail out now. Any/all opinions are appreciated.
