bama.. it really depends on what you think the investors, traders and market makers can do.. i have not hashed tru it.. i scanned thru it.. i did dl it to my hd and will pick the finer points out of it{more than millenium will do) I have no position here.. i cannot short it~ it is not marginable.. and all i can do if anything is go long.. there are no options to write.. there are no calls to sell.. so we are looking at the one thing that I can do as an investor.. {or anyone else.. for that matter~ unless they are in the habit of shorting $4 stocks- usually not wise) what do you think the company will do? will they lower the strike on options? this lets say $3 instead of $4.. this allows them LESS in the event that they do "sell" the exercised shares.. it cuts their pocket by 25% i don't think this is wise.. i think they will do what they have to to get the share price up.. i am not saying they will act illegally.. i am saying that they most likely will announce oil or something to get the stock price up.. I for one will not short this stock if goes over $5.. sorry.. i just don't see more people buying in from these boards.. you are probably overburdened with it already.. the question is how they will manage this.. for you holding the stock.. i guess keep it for a while.. i will start buying @ 3 1/2.. and if i miss a ride up.. i don't care.. it is far easier and less risky for me to play with the stocks i have been playing with.. taxi
