You are welcome. No cash - stock only. BTW, it reached $4.00 already WITHOUT news of an impending adquisition (#53) and it never got even close to $2.00 (#43). Likewise, I also don't believe that it will fluctuate back and forth a "half a point or so" (#64). I am convinced based on lenghty, thorough, and on-going research, that their shares are most likely (speculation only - not a prediction) to easily reach $5.00 within the next week or so, possibly $6.00+ by mid-to-late November, and then hover between $5.00 and $6.00+ until further news one way or the other.
Since this is mostly speculation and that is what we are all engaged in to begin with, I also don't believe that any of us ought to be subject to patronizing warnings addressed to "Unsophisticated Investors" (#70).
None of us are being forced to listen to any of what is posted here, and I would venture to say that the majority of us following this thread are doing so mostly to get feedback on our own independent conclusions while at the same time attempting to stay abreast of new developments.
Steve, I sincerely respect your opinions; and I thank you and others for their active participation which is teaching me plenty. You already got burned by Gupta in the past unfortunately, but I am glad that you chose to share your experience with the rest of us. However, let me remind you that we are not necessarily in the same boat and therefore you may want to be equally respectful of everyone else's opinions.
I, for one, SUGGESTED on October 16 that Centura's stock had bottomed out at $2.94 and was lucky to buy-in on the same day. Which means that I would already stand to make a gross 40% profit apx. if I was to sell at $4.00-$4.25 on Monday. You called me nuts yet my suggestion has since been proven to have some validity (And BTW, I probably over-reacted to your observation. No, I have never lived in New York but if you are game I would consider dropping-in on you sometime!?).
So who among us is to say that ANYONE ELSE's suggestions, not matter how "ridiculous" they may sound AT THE TIME, are "irresponsible" and misleading? Time could indeed prove me and others who agree with my observations TOTALLY wrong. I am open to that. This IS a risky game.
IMHO time ALONE ought to be the only judge. Good luck to you! |
