I've been buying as many shares as my (sadly, meagre) available funds will permit. In fact, I'm in hock up to my eyeballs. A few years back, after the bubble burst and the value of my STXN holdings fell dramatically, I knew there would be a time in the future when the STXN share price would again rise. Consequently, I set a target to amass a total 2.5 times as many shares as I then owned. I finally reached that target late last year, but the current low prices have kept me buying... so now I have amassed 1.4 times this target number of shares (3.5 times the number of shares I owned 4 years ago). I owned a large number of shares 4 years ago (enough that the March 2000 share price had me thinking about retiring... and I was only in my late 40's then) but now I own an enormous number of shares (but haven't retired yet).

So yes... my belief is that this is a "decent speculation". There are a few decent posts over on the Yahoo message board (among the many stupid ones) and I suggest you go read them. I expect the STXN share price to bounce along with a slight upward trend until Fall and then to rise fairly sharply toward the end of the calendar year. If you buy now, I would recommend having a time horizon at least that long.
