robw, I made a misstatement which I retracted later about ASTN. I got astn mixed up with ppd which the SEC is indeed investigating for their accounting methods. News came out the same day and they are both stocks that Westergaard hyped. The SEC is currently going after the mob guys and John, not astn...at least that I know of. Here is the information which I posted. messages.yahoo.com I believe that ASTN's chart looks the way it does because of the boiler room and John. When they hyped, the price went up. When they stopped, it went down. When astn wasn't delivering on their promises, it went down even lower. If they can keep the evwap volume up, it may go up. If they can actually turn a profit, that would help. If they can fund the operation from profits instead of just printing and selling more shares, they may do okay. Time will tell. I don't think that message board posts affect the stock price if the company is legit and doing well unless someone posts some fake negative press release. Posts don't kill companies, companies do. My profile was never adult. I just accidentally checked the adult box so I had an adult ad running on the top of it.
