There are many such companies: smart tech. people, great products, bad sales&marketing. The broken chain can only be fixed by a diligent CEO. BTW, what's the time frame for SGI to find its new CEO?

This is the middle of the traditional SGI employee selloff of ESPP shares: often the price drops 15% in the three weeks after shares are issued to match their discounted price. Maybe long-term holders can breathe a sigh of relief on Thanksgiving Day. SGI needs a permanent CFO with the gonads to commit cash to execute the stock repurchase program at less than half the price they paid before--even just a couple million shares.
