EVERY drop in coii price up until now has been a buying opportunity. obviously, i cannot say for certain that this will be true in our present case. however, you can only invest based upon statistical evidence. and, so far i would side with past history and say this is probably a buying opportunity. 2. coii would benefit greatly from being on nasdaq. but, even without nasdaq, coii will be successful. once coii is approved by the FDA, the story changes to one of HOW successful they will be not IF they will be successful. don't forget they COULD stay on the bulletin board, move to the AMEX, or even, once better capitalized (after approval) apply to the NYSE! fact: coii has submitted almost everything to the SEC prior to this nasdaq snafu. so, i feel confident that everything will be fine. however, the SEC and nasdaq have no relationship so i can understand why this would take time. my guess is that any delay is the nasdaq and their lawyers looking over every shred of data that exists regarding coii's past and future. that takes an agonizing amount of time and energy. there have probably been meetings with coii, meetings among nasdaq officials, meetings between attorneys on both sides, etc. my guess is that we will know next week or the week after, the final result. my prediction: coii will prevail and be nasdaq listed. by august we will see them send in module 4 and by september october they will submit module 5. then, we will wait for the real magic to occur. i am as optimistic as ever. i wish i knew more than you, but i don't. however, i know this company well and know that it is run by honorable, smart men. in the end, they will prevail. curtis
