Prior to BAT hitting 3.25 I had a discussion with my broker at A.G. Edwards, Co., wondering what the procedures were for a OTC BB stock to become listed on NASDAQ, AMEX etc. He stated one of the requirements were to file financials with the SEC. He also stated that if a stock, even a BB stock, became suddenly very volatile, it would trigger the SEC into action. We all know what just happened to the stock. And I might add that I was also an investor in Advanced Viral Research, another penny stock, which went through the same volatility and that triggered action by the SEC. Couldn't this action by the SEC by a normal procedure rather than the actions of one individual filing a complaint? Right now, this so called "hype" of BAT's testing doesn't ring true with me. All tests were done out in the open with invitations to all. Nothing was hidden. Sure BAT is advertising it's company in a positive light. What company doesn't? Like all of you, I would like tons of info. But like scba has stated, and others, we are going to have to wait till the dust settles. Your comments please.
