Chris,

You are right, it's like they have always said: "Statistics don't Lie, but Statisticians Do".

Nevertheless, what I attempted to point out was this: over the past three months, the ROI of FNTN, as compared to the ROI of various other investments - regardless of their source (NASDAQ, NYSE, etc.), has proven out to be a better performer than the alternatives used in my example. Are there examples that would prove this to be untrue? Of course there are. And, if you or anyone else would like to provide those examples, you are most welcome to do so.

Why did I use the examples I did? Because they are stocks that many people can relate to and may even have a desire to own.

What was the importance of my example? To some people there may have been no importance. However, to me, the importance was and is ROI.

For those people who bought in at a price greater than $1.00, YES, they have lost money. With all due respect to those people, why did they buy in at that level? And, why did they not learn about FNTN prior to the time they did? I don't know the answer to that any more than I know the answer about what the future is going to hold for this company. What I have is confidence! Does that mean someone else should have the same confidence as myself - NO! Confidence in something or someone is a personal thing!

Thank you for the recommendation of the book, I'm going to buy it and read it. I have always enjoyed statistics and the application of statistics to human behavior and marketing issues.
