Yes, that is correct. I was in another company that I had a profit on during the period of the suit and I wasn't able to participate. I received the material about two months ago. You can't sue unless you have a loss. I think the return on your loss for a company like THQI that has money and insurance etc.. (not a scam bb stock) is about 20% on the dollar, something in that range. The factors they look at are the percentage of your loss. They receive the most. Anyone who purchased closer to the bottom receives a much smaller %. (i.e. the closer to the beginning of the claim get more) Here's the period. "publicly traded securities during the period between October 26, 1999 and February 10, 2000 (the ''Class Period'')."

Personally, I'm glad to see the suit. It pretty much guarantees certain shareholders some cash back IF they have a loss etc.. I bought the largest percentage of stock at $28 when they came out with that press release. I'm VERY disappointed in the company. However, I'm not selling at a loss right now. I like their line-up this year and I've sold in positions like this and I was usually wrong. Cool heads generally prevail. Earnings and plenty of info. on Wednesday. P.S. Now that there is a suit against them, they really can't discuss certain things anymore can they... hmmmmm
