These certainly are trying times for those of us with friends, relatives, associates, etc. who bought ALYD on our recommendation. There certainly has been constant selling pressure on the stock and it does look like many ALYD supporters decided today it was time to dig in and suck up the selling-- just as Tech Master predicted. Even CEO Bob Gruder has stated his intentions to buy at these prices.

The big question then is when will the selling pressure go away? Well, going on the assumption that one institution may be the cause as I suspect, it depends how many shares they might still have left, whether those shares can continue to be absorbed at these prices, the current confidence level of ALYD shareholders, possible margin calls, and how the market itself is doing. Sorry, but all that stuff is not in my area of expertise. However, as a longtime supporter and believer in ALYD, of course I think anybody who has shares in this price range will be handsomely rewarded very soon. Yes, things may indeed still get worse before they get better, but anyone who knows how ALYD trades knows that when things do get better, they get better in the blink of an eye.

As for briefing.com, I absolutely guarantee you they are clueless. If the price hadn't fallen this low I'll bet ALYD would have at least done one acquisition by now. I'm glad Bob said mid October because in this business anything can happen and it gives ALYD a margin of error just in case. As for deals, as you know, once you Europeans start coming back from holiday I believe those alleged mega deals will start getting signed -- finally -- so watch out.
