FWIW......I received two research reports this weekend on Concurrent Computer Corporation. Both analysts have a 'strong buy' rating on the stock. Both reports were updated in February. One report indicates that 39 institutions currently own 9.25 million shares of common representing 19.61% of the float. The same report indicates that six insiders bought 24,000 shares in the last six months. Not much of a purchase but an insider purchase none the less. The second report is from E. Brian Harvey.....originally of the LL company. He is still very bullish and has indicated again that his 12-18 month price target is $5.50 to $6.00 per share. DEER HUNTER

i beg to differ: the government pays you to park big money in a stock that sleeps for months precisely because when it then takes off you can sell with a longterm capital gain and you get to play on with a bigger pile of chips.

Love of action is dangerous to your investment health. Warren Buffett has said that he would not care if the stock market closed for six months. I feel pretty much the same way. The better question about a stock not moving is whether the investment assumptions you made when buying it are not valid. If they are still valid, I am perfectly willing to wait for market recognition.
