Ed Larkin,, Re: Pat Mudge, your investing ,your memory and the facts: Several points Ed for you to take note of: ================================= A) I believe you have bigger worries than JDSU, with QLT drop. siliconinvestor.com Message 15069424 " This thing is looking grim to me too. A cure for blindness and the price drops like a stone. The best interpretation I can see is that the drop makes no sense logically and the longer term situation will unfold when the next earnings are reported. If they are OK so are we-- if not we are in trouble big time long time. Ed Larkin " ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Also, I don't know where you get your investing advice but you have been very sadly misled. For example, here is your comment on NN: Message 15424649 " Despite the switches Newbridge dropped from about $45 to 28 and I believe has disappeared. " Comment: ============ NN went to 14 from 63. Pat Mudge a long time investor and bull bailed out disgusted at 16, after investing for ~>2 years: Message 11789139 " I also sold my position this morning at 16 " and lost money in it Pat " Message 11807826 " I have not been able to get out before warnings and the losses I've taken in this last trip down are painful enough Pat" Then Ed, Pat went further on to apologize for the advice she had previously given out to invest in NN: Message 11802663 " My only regret is that anyone might have lost money because I believed Newbridge could be great. For that I deeply apologize. Pat" Some were cruel to Pat: Message 11811406 " Ian Stormberg ,Perhaps you were being cute by your choice of words but this time they were far from humorous. Kindly do you plies on someone else's tombstone. Pat " I was kind to Pat , even as others made cruel remarks to her, and told her she did not need to apologize: Message 11814289 " Pat you don't have to apologize. NN should have hired you as their PR and to run the company's morale dept. and the " how to get things done " dept. TA" Many of us then went on ( and I was one ) , and loaded up the boat from 21 to 26 . Message 11908473 "Ian , decided to take the plunge. I bought back all my previous large position at 21. TA " I even urged Pat to get back in it: Message 11912284 " Pat, glad you are back. I wish you would reconsider investing in NN TA " But Pat analyzed the situation Message 11956121 and bailed out Message 11956227 " I'm out as of this morning. Pat " The subsequent story is that ================================== NN finally was acquired by ALA last year at an exchange price of ~ 45 as I remember for a 0.8 ALA for 1 of NN share. ALA then doubled from 42 to 82 . NN was a 3 - 4 bagger for many of us. ========================================================= So Ed, these are the facts instead of fiction for you: NN is now part of ALA, a great company. What you need to do now Ed is -recheck your sources for investing advice -read past historical posts so that a) you can learn something b) you will not look as uninformed and naive as you now appear -get out of loosing medical stocks such as this QLT. Biotech is the next one to crash to unbelievable lows. -save yourself some cash - and last butnot least, save me some time from having to constantly correct posters' fiction and fantasies from facts. cheers Disclaimer Message 15442821 I am out now. Back much later, TA
