I've been lurking on this thread for a while now...this stock is so damn frustrating! I know of no other stock that actually goes DOWN on good news. Yes, I know the whole sermon about patience and someday over the rainbow this stock will rise from the grave. The question is will it be in my lifetime, when it counts!? Enough ranting. I just had to get that off my chest. Regardless of fundamentals, news, financials, etc. this stock can be classified as a dog, and I'm long the stock! I'll wait for the bad news to hit...probably break a $1.00. Go figure. Back to lurking. S.

The NASDAQ deal ... from memory. A long time ago (last year) there were discussions between TSIS and NASDAQ. NASDAQ views the NYSE as their main competition and wants to do things to keep NASDAQ's big companies happy, unlike the earlier days when everybody wanted to migrate to the NYSE. The plan, therefore, was that TSIS would provide InvestorReach to any of the NASDAQ 100 who wanted it, and that NASDAQ would pay some of the costs (as a "bennie" to help retain some of these companies). Then the contact person at NASDAQ went away or got transferred or somesuch, and TSIS figured the deal was dead. This was about February of 1998, because it was discussed briefly at the Annual Meeting. Then out of the blue, NASDAQ (somebody else there, I reckon) reinitiated the idea with NASDAQ. I do not know whether the current discussions envision NASDAQ sharing some of the costs, but adding a number of big companies to TSIS's collection would be very beneficial.
