Marshall, what's your impression of my theory that LIOX was designed to move heavy and high onto Nasdaq? The theory is based on the low float coupled with Morgan Stanley Dean Witter/Advent owning of 750,000 shares of this float. Think about it. Given the nature of what LIOX is doing, the float could have been larger and MSDW/Advent could have had a different behind-the-scenes type involvement. So why do they openly own the 750,000 shares? Could it be that such ownership enhances the price so impressively that LIOX ultimately gets assured a very firm foothold onto Nasdaq. Once sitting proud on Nasdaq, the door becomes easier to open for successful LIOX IPO launches in foreign exchanges. Read: Global products and services. Read: Global money! And, were this to happen, would MSDW and Advent somehow be rewarded down the road, in addition to the gains they'd make by the value of their LIOX shares? As you can tell, I love to think out loud. But does any of this make sense? Were you the architect of a new and exciting global company like LIOX, would you do it similarly? If my theory holds true, then the Windows 2000 PR, although great news in and of itself, is mere window dressing of a pre-QP placating nature and, thus, a conclusion: We can soon expect greater news during QP's passing. I guess it all has to do with the question: How do you make something big bigger? (LOL)
