.Trev - Wrong! When you buy shares in a company you most certainly do have the right to inject your opinions. That's why you are allowed to go to the AGM and take a turn at the microphone. That's why you can phone the company and register your approval or lack thereof. That's why you can go on SI and complain about Turner and anything else associated with the company. They solicit people like us and then want us to go away after we buy. Well some don't play it that way and it is their right to do so if they are a minority shareholder.

That's the altruistic way of looking at things.
Personally, I'm from the old school and pp are taken down to make money first, company strength second.
Something like the home renovator/flipper who makes his profit on closing a "handyman special" deal, then can sell for breakeven.
Profit is made before the deal is cooked.
But then, what do I know, my broker doesn't come running to me with cheap stock.

Trev, I must put in my 2 cents now, I read every post here.

Its called printing paper. The insiders and their buddies get rich by buying cheap PP paper and getting options and then distributing the paper to us the unsuspecting sharehosers.
