Matt, first of all, it was meant as a compliment. I was thinking out loud about how much inventory the MM might still have and asked KAA for some comments about who the large block buyers might be. After your one day gain of $18k with Citicorp, I immediately classified you as a very savvy young investor who could very well own xxMM (that's xx,000,000) shares of CVIA. And with your market savvy, you very well could have pulled out you initial investment and still own those xxMM shares. Sorry about the confusion...good to have you among our ranks. techstocks.com BTW - I hope you pulled some of them CCI profits out before the pullback.

We haven't heard from our resident junior Warren Buffet lately. I don't know how extensive your investment experience is, Matt, but I'm sure like many on this board, CVIA has been a humbling experience for you. While many on this board have been patting you on the back for your investment savvy at such a young age, my response to your investment practices was that you needed to be very aware that investing in a stock like CVIA is a lot like high stakes gambling. Most high stakes gamblers lose. Now I'm not going to give you the conservative lecture about sticking with "solid investments" like blue chips next time. I think you can make a lot of money in speculative stocks. But I would choose stocks that already have a marketable product and revenues, don't use reg s financing, don't have 100 million shares outstanding and don't plan to reverse split you to the poor house. May this be a good learning experience for you, me and all the rest of this thread.
