Green,
You're a trader... I used to be for quite a few years. I'm surprised you couldn't see this coming... especially if you use any charts and level 2. Is this what you really want from TSIG? Constant PRs and hype... and then the follow through... the pump and dump. I really don't know anything about this other company (kcap), but I read their releases and wasn't very excited. To me their marketing scheme (or plan, if you will) was a little obscure. I'd prefer to just let TSIG do its' thing and execute its' marketing plans (which we all should be familiar with by now) and then make the announcements when, as Sam has said, they have some substance... be it next week or next month. I don't want that kind of volatility. I am an investor... not a trader. I look for long-term continuous sustainable growth and I look for value (hopefully undervalue). I certainly have no arguments with traders. They obviously like the "action". As for me... I like to look at my bottomline every few years and watch it grow. If anyone speaks to MskiHntr he will verify that I called him tonight just to chat... and I didn't even know what TSIG closed at, what the volume was, or the bid and ask. Maybe I'm wrong in my thinking, but at this stage in TSIG's development I really have no concern about its' stock price. I don't want hype coming from anyone and I certainly don't want a "pump & dump". I want to see this baby get up on its' legs and start to walk. IMHO, the stock price will follow. If just a few things fall into place, TSIG could be doing $100,000,000+ in gross sales in relatively short order with a profit margin that would be astronomical. Believe it or not, Green, getting the business is the least of my concerns. Frankly, my main concern is can TSIG handle that volume of business... especially when it will come in so quickly? Obviously I believe they will find the way, but I'm more concerned about that (their ability to fulfill) than I am about their ability to sell their product(s).
Green, trading can be fun... I agree, but is the actual net return of trading worth the stress and aggravation over the years? IMO, no. That's why most of my cash assets are in hedge funds. I just got my quarterly reports... one fund is up a little over 74% for the year and the other a little over 46% for the year. A darn good return in my opinion... and they do all the sweating and I pay for that expertise. But, they trade equities, bonds, options, futures, commodities... long and short, full margin or none at all... whatever they choose to do. TSIG is in my personal portfolio (although I'm trying to convince one of the fund managers to take a position) so my perspective with my investment is very different. I do my DD and continue to follow-up with my DD and as long as everything is going in the right direction I stand pat without worrying about a PR coming out tomorrow. Is everything "perfect" now? Of course not, but it is getting there. Does TSIG have problems to solve? Of course they do, but if I didn't honestly believe that these will be solved in good order and a timely fashion I would simply sell my holdings... it really is that simple. I don't worry about the stock price now, but obviously I expect to see it significantly higher in the future... but from a company that grows with solid substance and not from hype and/or a pump & dump.
See how I ramble after a long day's work <VBG>. Sorry about that.
Best always,
