What intelligent person would think a 1 cent per share dividend would affect the price of DCI. I didnt think a dividend would shoot up the price alone. But I think the intent was a dividend announcement by an OTC BB stock along with a buyback announcement plus new merger announcements was to bring up interest and therefore DEMAND for the stock. And it worked.. for a week or two. I don't believe you will find any post from Joe Murphy stating he expected the price to go up on this announcement. I certainly hope not! That would open himself up to possible legal actions if the prediction didnt come through. If I ever saw a CEO officially posting price predictions I would be out of that stock instantly. Look, I believe in the potential of the stock and Joe M. That is why I am here. Those were not my points.. the bottom line is right now there is no demand for the stock. Its not a stock you can look at and go hmm EPS is xxx.. slap a PE on it of xxx.. its in a hot sector, its worth $XXX. So that dissuades people because it takes a lot of work to understand the stock and believe in it. So that hurts in a way in the demand side. Hard to "win over" new investors. As others have said, even his broker friends can't be won over. Seems a lot of buying has been old investors just adding to their positions at these "unbelievable prices". Its going to take a lot of new eyes to move this stock... Just some comments.. yes the future looks bright. Thanks for the response. Mark
