Musya, your focus seems to be on releases ..... don't kid yourself, Joe knows the legal in and outs of releasing information. The releases are distributed to the public news wires before we see them here and I am sure a receipt is issued to DCI as proof. So that really should not be a concern. No, my concern is not on releases in the sense you describe. If it was the case that we here knew about the release, say, on Monday 5pm, and the whole world sees it on Tuesday 9.01am - I am not concerned. This is the same timing as far as Market is concern. What I meant was the hints as to when the release will come out ("after 4.30pm Friday and before Wednesday") by Joe, and the discussion by Michael (whom I respect greatly) about where he is, what he is doing, the hints of 747 versus Chesna, etc. This stuff was WELL before market closing on Monday. Why are you trying to trade DCI based on this type of information? I really think you will find it better to hold DCI as a long term investment or until Joe manages to sell the company. His stated goal was to grow the company until it is a buyout in the $10 to $12 area ..... With all due respect, Ken. I will choose the way of trading / investing myself, if I may. I agree that Joe knows what to do with the company. Let me decide what to do with my money myself. BTW, I am doing this for living. Trading / investing is my only income and the full time job. Market does have all types of investors and traders. In what Joe says, the only thing I do not understand is how he thinks he can get rid of "flippers"? I am not trying to speak for them or protect them. I just do not understand how such savvy person as Joe can seriously think that flippers will disappear if the works on rising the stock price through buyback, dividend, M&A and good earnings? He will get rid of some, the new ones will come instead! This is just the nature of the game, nothing anybody can do about it. Daytraders, week-long investors, shorts, long-termers: it takes all types to make the market, this is just a fact of life, whether we like it or not.I think based on what is happening, we will meet and beat that goal within the next year. Once we are on a major exchange I think we will have the attention of many. And Joe's M&A effort will become apparent to a much larger group of investors. Agree on all items. IMHO, the only thing that might prevent DCTC from achieving its goal is the law suit by those shareholders who feel that they were not informed as well as the people on SI were. My two cents. Musya.
