Pierre,
I see your are about my age and offer another range of experience to the forum. Thank you for dropping in to our lively debate.
Well, I have 'listened' carefully to all the negative comment, and warnings of disaster, and the foolishness of being long this stock, since April14. I have carefully considered each comment as fairly and logically as I could against my 30years of investment experience and my own career expertise. I have checked out the backgrounds of all of the posters, for credibility, experience and logical contradictions over their whole length of their posting time, and I am astounded by the consistency and weight of analytical skill and expertise available and brought to bear on GPW. It's almost as if we are a 'shadow' board of directors in finance, operations, marketing, product development, strategy, (I could go on), watching every move of GPW and even advising if appropriate. I feel that every negative concern of substance has been addressed and well put away. All that's left are spectres of fright, and challenges of impropriety, which are always with men and women who have the courage of their convictions, and are always defeated. I'm staying long GPW, and the recent debate has reassured me that there is no convincing argument on the negative side. In fact the negative side is very weak, unsubstantiated and based largely on opinion, prima facie. Thank you everyone, from both sides, for helping me to think through this analysis. From this point on GPW is not only my rational decision, but my hopes and wishes, as well as a few horseshoes(which we all know are also important in investing!). The negative side of the debate has simply failed to convince me. I wish everyone here the best, and I hope we continue to respect all posters who take the time and energy to keep this thread a true forum. Later, when new facts or markets emerge we should reexamine the negative argument, but for now, it's my conclusion, as far as I have the wit to make it, that we are "go" for further success and a share price advance.
A very good night to all!
