That's exactly my point - you can't compare a real company to one like EFCR or PLNI. Not to denigrate penny stocks but they are different animals. A real investor or trader would realize that. As for SIRI v COVAD, SIRI really needs to be traded. I've done it perhaps 30 times or more. It's just too volatile and too much emotion. I can sometimes trade it 3 times after hours. I think it's a much better play than XMSR, which has similar risk of the industry but not the same buzz and potential. COVAD has to be a hold. It's not volatile enough to trade. I agree that they have to "show me" before I add any here. They've been making some decent moves lately, both cost cutting and bringing in some real improvements in numbers. Can they continue? Will they be taken over by Vonage after its IPO or Ebay or even Amazon?
