Lastshadow..Here is a stock which deserves some dd..ASTN..look at the chart..the industry they are in (electronic trading systems..their management team led by Fred Rittereiser (was president of Instinet)..We are expecting many new developments early this next year..News of ATG Asia yesterday had a favorable response, but imo is huge.. Here is something from ASTN's website which I copied from the ASTN thread about Mr Rittereiser: Mr. Rittereiser is considered a pioneer in the field of electronic trading systems for the financial markets. While President of Instinet, Mr. Rittereiser was responsible for Instinet's two most successful products – a liquid trading system for NASDAQ securities and the first crossing network. In addition, Mr. Rittereiser introduced Instinet to a number of domestic and international exchanges. Mr. Rittereiser was responsible for Instinet's strategic acquisition by Reuters." While oldtimers already know this, I anticipate many newcomers in the days to follow. I like to invest in people as much or more than the companies..people who have proven what they can do.. marcus
