Waiting for those earnings #'s. Q4 last year was $.25. Analyst expectation this Q is about $.04 - suspect could be a chance they beat that number just because analyst may have purposely lowballed number so they can play momentum game with the stock. Even if they do $.08 (good case-totally a guess based on suspicions about how analysts can play games with EPS numbers sometimes versus expectations, in fact reasonable chance numbers come in worse too as state of mkt. these days seems pretty sick), puts it at run rate earnings power of $.32, which would give stock P/E multiple of 65x run-rate earnings. No way a business going from $.25 to $.08 deserves 65 P/E.

Closed down 1 7/8 today on very light volume. Seems like very little interest these days in unproven spec-stocks.

My price target remains in $12-$15 range and look forward to seeing earnings and commentary in 10-K.

My opinion.
