Bruce.. in the interest of accuracy. As long as you are bringing up my name and what I said, at least check post #11527 and post #11535 one of which I have re-printed here. Frankly I didn't expect to get a third degree when I joined this board, all I tried to do was bring forth some information that might be useful to someone. The last thing I would do to someone is to put them in a position that might prevent further info from reaching the board. I don't agree with everything you say and I don't expect you to agree with everything I say. But lighten up, I can keep whatever I learn to myself and still read whatever is posted here. BTW, I was told earnings would be released the week of February 12.

George, I am the first one to tell you I am not a techie so if you want to chastise me for that, that's fine. I wish I was more technologically knowledgeable. After conversations with Dr. Rav-noy, Noam and the IR, Dianne. The words were that the company missed a sales cycle. To me that can only mean the parade passed them by. New products are not ready on time. The Q2 CC Noam spoke about a very exciting q4, as I am sure you are aware by now, Q4 is going to show an operating loss.
Once again new products at higher margins would have made the outlook better. Have you heard the phrase "we are re-inventing ourselves". That also tells you the parade has passed them by.
I would like to point out that I have a substantial position in MRVC and a substantial loss to go with that.(my problem not yours). My hope is as I have said in a previous message, That Noam and Co. will get MRVC heading in the right direction and I can only hope it starts as of January 2. To show my ignorance, can you tell me what SOA stands for. |
