Cant be to happy about the lack of any follow through these last couple days. After spiking nearly up to 1.5, I've had to watch this thing sag more than halfway back to my entry point. Nothing like watching a paper gain of 14 grand evaporate to sober you up--and start one thinking about a small cap mutual fund instead of trading in a brokerage acct. So 20/20 hindsite, should have sold, but then who watches the charts all day? It wasn't up near 1.5 for very long--just those rapid fire trades near the end of the day a few days ago. Maybe to trade these little guys you need a beeper, he he--or even better, don't trade them, there is always somebody out there who knows more than you do, and with something as thinly traded as this you can really get eaten alive. Good news means nothing with these, I bought another stock I follow the day they had some good news--and I've watched that thing sag from 2.5 to 2 since the news came out. Anyway, I wouldn't get too carried away with the performance in the last couple of hours of trading Friday, some of that was me locking in those much-reduced gains to even out with losses in some other things I have. Now that I've reduced the number of shares I've got, watch it take off.

>>The market action would seem to suggest that >>this company is financially tenuous even with >>the new venture. ...surely you are not suggesting EMH holds for [microcaps] in general and companies like SoftQuad specifically...that simply is a given, by definition, and has to be a presupposition going in to a newly-minted microcap ecosystem like the Silicon Investor [at this stage of the game]...however, this will change in the near/intermediate?-future pursuant to the very existence of the Internet, in general, and viz a viz, the Silicon Investor, specifically (for now?)...
