Dear Waldo: Are you a psychoanalyst???? Stock does move A LITTLE. haha. Sorry, couldnt resist. IMHO this stock has moved A LOT in past 8 mos or so. My memory, poor as it is, is that TAVA languishes for some time then makes SUDDEN upward spurts. Trouble is you really dont know when that sudden spurt will happen. Your post also mentions something about manipulation. Well, I think most of us on this thread agree this stock is manipulated regularly. Doesnt have much effect on us long term holders though. JDN

Ok Waldemar... compare TAVA to KEA... the chart patterns will mesh this year... <VBG> I think we all should realize that while 1st Call may have lowered earnings estimates for TAVA (still looking for the link to this report myself), it does not explain the whys behind the decision. We have not discussed the fact that there will be likely charges against earnings for training and SG&A expenses. What I'm interested in is how quickly revenue is growing and plotting that out several quarters. Things I will be looking forward to hearing about are the I&A pilots for KO which are due to be finished up by the end of this month and what that will mean to the bottom line. KO is BIG, as Karl Drobnic has asserted. It is credibility, it is money, and it holds the potential for long-term business contacts/contracts that will yield TAVA more of the IIT marketshare. The stock is consolidating, awaiting some more information to justify our excitement and hopes for the future. Those who understand TAVA know the only thing this company has to fear is the side-effects of a general market correction that takes everything down with it. I was out of TAVA for a brief period out of fear of the "Big Kahuna", but it looks like we have a reprieve and the 4-5% correction we just went through may mean that the Dow "could" consolidate at the 9000 range rather than completely tanking down to 8000.

Your post is full of fear and ignorance. First, chat rooms even big ones like SI in most cases don't have a large influence on the day to movement of securities (of course there are always examples that the paranoid can point to like Comparator Systems and infer that it is so with everything). Why do you think there should be some correlation between the number of posts on the TAVA thread, and the price/volume of TAVA. Perhaps there are no large competitors to compare TAVA with at this point. Perhaps Bristol Myers, KRAFT, Boeing, Coke and many other Fortune 500 companies have incompetent engineers and system analyst types that have been duped by TAVA's software. Most likely, you are someone that has not done your own research. You are not comfortable with your position because you don't know what you own. Plain and simple, you are scared. The simple solution is to sell your position and walk away. By doing this there will be one less poster on this thread.
