Hi,all; I'm new to this thread, but have been watching the dialogue on TOM with great interest. Have spent the last few days researching the stock, and think it's a good buy. But here's the question: what is the proper way to trade stocks on the ASE? I have found that it's never a problem buying, but that there may be a problem selling, at a given price, because there may not be enough buyers. Then you had to take the "market price", which was substantially lower. I know that this isn't the forum for this question, but the thin market at the ASE is what stops me from investing in TOM. So, with apologies to all, I'm hoping for a response to this general question, which indirectly relates to buying TOM. Thanks,jaskay

But Denise, "Felderhof of the famed Bre-X" didn't prevent that debacle from happening, nor did having Walsh in Canada help. So, I don't think your argument about feeling more comfortable with Canadian residents is a valid one. I think investors should buy into management's abilities, and unless you know them personally, that is best measured by past results. As in, give us results, and we'll buy your stock...a variant of Jerry Maguire's 'Show me the money!' Just my humble opinion, though.
