<What, if anything, do you give consideration to when you see the number of shares outstanding, in float, etc. ??? I know, or at least THINK i know, that the more shares mngmnt holds the better, because the logic is mngmnt-owned shares increase the likelyhood of mngmnt doing what they can to preserve the value of the company (their stock) because it is in their financial best interests to do so, or is this a farce ??>

The number of shares outstanding do not always correlate with the number of shares held by management. This being the case, I suggest that you remain very specific in indicating ownership, float, etc. The more management owns of corporate stoclk, the more aligned mgmt.'s interest are with shareholders, and the less subsceptible shareholder's are to hubris syndrome (mgmt. acting undefeatable since they are not playing with thier own money).
