CC, thanks for letting us know about CDNX. Unfortunately, however, being a prince is not exactly a good thing. First off, we generally prefer gorilla games to royalty games because the lock of the market leader is stronger and longer-lasting. Second, within royalty games we prefer kings to princes, because at least kings can control their own destiny by executing well. Princes, even very impressive princes, live in a very uncertain environment; they can make money for investors, but we believe that other companies can usually make even more money with a higher degree of safety. Moreover, despite what has recently happened to GMST and QCOM, we are generally not interested in stocks trading in low single digits, reflective of a market cap and lack of pricing power far below our usual standards. But thanks for thinking of us, and prosperous investing, tekboy/Ares@Apolloforaday.org

CC, you may have been reading the thread for a while, but I'm afraid you've missed the point of our endeavor. We don't focus on companies like NetShepherd and AskJeeves since they are technology users, not technology innovators, and as such are not addressed by Gorilla Game metrics. You might better post your comments on the Godzilla thread, but even there I don't think penny stocks command much interest. I'd suggest you read Fred Manzo's Marvellous FAQ to get a better handle on the G&K approach: Message 13528913 Please accept these comments as constructive. Your post was well presented and I believe you made a sincere effort to contribute. Unfortunately, it missed the mark. The faq should help you sharpen your aim. uf
