To "Pask". The mistake that most of the ARET shareholders made was that they all thought that the stock price of ARET was going to continue to go UP after - AFTER - the web-site came on-line. what they failed - tragically - to understand was that the RUMOR that was going "around" that the web-site was going to be coming on-line in a few weeks was the main (perhaps ONLY) reason why the stock price of ARET was going up - at all - in the first (1st.) place. AFTER the web-site actually came on-line the "bloom was OFF the rose" and the stock price went to "sh*t"!! (IOW) the fact of the web-site actually coming on-line had ALREADY been "built into" the stock price of ARET!! by the time that the web-site actually CAME on-line the "event" was totally ANTI-climaxical!! Yeah - it's the same "ole" story of "Buy On Rumor - Sell On News"!! even today if you read the messages on the ARET message board - it is really pathetic that most of the remaining ARET shareholders STILL do not understand this very basic fact of how the stock market really operates. most of the remaining ARET shareholders still simply cannot comprehend why the stock price of ARET continues to go DOWN!! Oh well - it just goes to "underline" the fact - again - that stock market NOVICES should most definitely NOT be investing in "micro-cap" stocks!! HAY - guess what - trying to make a financial "killing" via investing in the "micros" seems to have become (UNfortunately) the "faddish" thing to be doing these days. that is, of course, exactly why SOOO many people are losing their financial "asses" by trying to make money via investing in the "micros" these days even after being - repeatedly - warned NOT to!! in short - they simply (sadly) have literally NO idea at all about what they are doing!! take care.
