Mike. Great for you... you bought before it hit the traders, and sold before they realized it was a dream. The thing is, through the 1024K worldwide PR, the "Informational" website, and the tours, CUST has shown their cards(technology?). And they are not pretty. (Review past posts for reasons why)

This thread is getting a little ridiculous because you have a severe reading comprehension problem. Let's go through this very slowly for the fourth or fifth time.

You pretend that $200,000 worth of stock is miniscule yet he paid for that with
hard earned money.


No. I "pretend" that $200,000 worth of stock for ***someone who has about $140,000,000 of stock*** is miniscule. $200,000 of CUST stock might be significant for you and me, but it is totally insignificant for someone who has about $140,000,000 of stock. As a matter of fact, it is about 0.14% of his CUST holdings. Please tell us which word in this paragraph you do not understand and I will explain it very patiently again, Mike. No hard feelings.

I was short more than $200,000 of CUST stock at one point a couple of weeks ago -- I have since lightened up a little. By no means am I a market mover in a stock like CUST. I am just dust in the wind. The fact that Cook, the CEO of CUST with $140,000,000 in CUST holdings, is trading in quantities that I am trading in is at the minimum meaningless, and at most, disturbing. The phrase "WTF?" comes to mind.

If Cook is serious about adjusting his holdings, why screw around with 0.14% of his holdings? That would be like if I had a $200,000 position in CUST and adjusted it by $280 (0.14%). I then publicize it because I have to. Then some shill comes along and says, "Look! Wang adjusted his holdings in CUST by $280. He must know something we don't. Wang smart, we stupid."

Yeah. We stupid. But for a different reason.
