chiro, DGIV is down because folks that took a short term interest in the company have been dissappointed with a lack of news. IMHO some folks were in it for the short term hoping to make a quick buck and move on. Those that are in this stock for the long term and recognize the enormous potential are less concerned about the timing of releases, and more focused on the long term prospects. Everyone must choose their own investment style. Short term price movement does not concern me, long term this stock will be fine.

For anyone who might be interested in
general market theory....an excerpt from
a speech by the great investor and
humanitarian, George Soros. I have also
provided a link for this speech in its entirety.

"...It may seem strange that a patently false theory should gain such
widespread acceptance, except for one consideration; that is, that all our
theories about social events are distorted in some way or another. And
that is the starting point of my theory, the theory of reflexivity, which
holds that our thinking is inherently biased. Thinking participants cannot
act on the basis of knowledge. Knowledge presupposes facts which occur
independently of the statements which refer to them; but being a
participant implies that one's decisions influence the outcome.
Therefore, the situation participants have to deal with does not consist
of facts independently given but facts which will be shaped by the
decision of the participants. There is an active relationship between
thinking and reality, as well as the passive one which is the only one
recognized by natural science and, by way of a false analogy, also by
economic theory."

.so tell me why dgiv is down if it is not due to increased selling pressure? btw, explain to me how a stock with huge demand (buyers greatly overwhelms sellers) for it can go down.

Really, when did I say that Dgiv was down without increased selling pressure? In fact I believe there is a ton of selling pressure. Its a natural retracing that a lot of microcaps go through after a couple of flag poles. Why is there selling pressure? Lets see this stock attracted attention well below a buck. I know that for a fact because Elk begged me to buy it when we were at the share holders meeting in CA for Ftel in February. (still kicking myself.ggg) many here bought some at 1,2,3, saw it spike up and people naturally are taking 3,4,5 bagers and converting their shares. The pace of selling, it only stands to reason will increase as people realize that they should lock in profits here and buy back in when bottom is found. How that is related to a depressed market simply does not make sense. I do not own DGIV but I do own a couple other like companies and they like this company maybe on the brink of breakouts of serious proportions. If they do break out how do you think these 3 companies would effect the overall major telcos share prices?

Tag your it.ggg
