Thanks. I don't mind. the $6 are too much for the BVSN. In Germany many people are happy to sell north of E32. So the $29 is a good cash for the stock, ...at the same time I know that BVSN with its liquidity is a jumpy horse and an afterhours darling... 28. In any case we must be near the end of a short term bottom, given that it is easy to shoot up stocks, and also that the selloffs are not as rude as they have been before.
