Angelo, You sound strangely like a short. I mean, losing a contract when they have a backlog that extends 2-3 years into the future! Give me a break!

If they sell an interest in their money-losing subsidiary as an IPO, who gets the money? ORBI does! (As you well know). It also may mean that they carry less of the loss on the ORBI books and thus report higher earnings per share.

I agree with your take on the message boards and ORBI in general. Regarding the message boards, most negativity tends to get attacked but you have to expect it. That's just the way it is. Most have money on the line and don't want to hear it. On ORBI, I am as bullish as anyone but sold friday at 43.00. I don't know the reasons, but there is a definite downward pressure on this stock right now. I will buy again when it feels right. I'm guessing it will dip and stick in the $38.00 to $39.00 area. I'm also getting nervous about holding the stock when the inevitable correction hits us.

"I'm tired of speculators in this ORBI stock..."

From someone who was hyping this stock at "$100 by midsummer" that's pretty rich.

Don't let the doorknob hit you on the way out.
