Jim, I am not touching any industry stock doing a debt or equity offering now, unless it is for very profitable reasons. My stocks have cash coming out the wazoo right now, and are buying back stock and/or paying down debt. If a company needs cash something is seriously wrong IMHO.

I think we must keep in mind that GW was a total laggard and was trading in the 1s and 2s for a very long time. For them to issue stock at $4/share must seem like a god-send. I agree with Q, I'd be very cautious. If your patient, you can wait but I suggest looking at SFY for clues. They sold some stock on the market and their price stagnated for a few months while many stocks in the sector were moving up. I think it's a short term negative which will cap the upside. Longer term, it's probably going to be very helpful to the company. JMO. Michael
