I'm not sure what your point is. My claim that Buffett's methodology is not relevant to Cube means, as I previously stated, that Buffett would never invest in a company like Cube today because of their lack of communication skills and horrible PR. I am not interested in debating Buffetts philosophy on the Cube thread.
I do have a problem with your comment that " C-Cube should not waste its energy on the business of selling its stocks to Wall Street but to concentrate on the business of making and selling its products to its customers ( including those on Wall Street )."
First of all, Cube is listed on the Nasdaq exchange. Whether you like it or not, Cube is in the business of " selling " itself to the investment community so it can profit handsomely. Otherwise there is no point on being listed on the Nasdaq. Secondly, part of " the business of making and selling its products to its customers" includes marketing, communicating clearly, and public relations. I am not " now including public relations". I have always included public relations. Indeed, in one of your previous posts # 34436, you began the post by quoting me: " The Problem is Public Relations..."
The Main Point is still this: Hardly anyone knows or cares what C-Cube's business involves. This is C-Cube's problem and it is depressing the share price and will continue to do so until the problem is addressed.

PS. On a side note, I see you mentioned that I have a Ph.D. in Philosophy. It is true but I fail to see your point. I love and adore Philosophy and it truely makes no difference to me whether you feel the same way as I do or even believe that I have a Ph.D. in it. Having a Ph.D. in Philosophy guarantees no success in the Investment World. For that matter, an advanced degree in any field, including business or finance, likewise guarantees nothing. I have made a lot of money on Cube in the past, being long ( last summer ) and short. I also know that my criticisms of Cube here are valid. I am a poor communicator because the devoted longs on this thread who have suffered so deeply over the last two and a half years hate me for being right about Cube and profitting on both sides of the equation. If they really care about Cube, then they should listen and voice their concerns to management, as I plan to do next week. Denial will not help the share price.
