Thanks for the memories ! Seems like ten years ago.

Looks like PSIX repriced/granted additional employee stock options yesterday:

That's pretty quick action for a BoD. Nice move !

I think the junk bond market and the internet sector is VERY different now compared to back then.

As I said, aside from financing issue, the real problem with Psix is that it's business model does not generate enough margin to support a heavy infrastructure business. Hosting has good margin but unfortunately, the bulk of their revenue comes from wholesale & access business where their margin of 25% is totally inadequate.

James funny that's exactly what I did. The debt was looming too large back then for me so I sold around 20 before the run up. I'm holding some shares I bought around 15. Perhaps like you I should be buying but I don't have the guts I used to. Basically I'm not convinced PSIX won't end up in the sh***er. Convince me James and I'll start loading up. 8^) niv
