Trilobyte, I hear you bought some more DFX.
I would too, but my RSP foreign content is used up (all DFX)

Here's a little spread sheet(in C$) that I keep on
the stocks I track

DFX Year End Dec 31 Shares: 9.5M

Q/Q-1 Q/Q-4
Period Sales Earn Sales Sales
1,000's % %

98Q2 17,987 3,238 11 256
98Q1 16,246 3,714 51 305
97Q4 10,732 1,919 28 173

96Q2 3,012 367 59 infomercials start
96Q1 1,896 119

Note: numbers are not quite accurate due to currency conversions.
I wish DFX would express all amounts in U$.

The above makes a nice graph. P/E still less than 10.

Trilobyte,

I didn't ask Rod about a NASDAQ listing. I know that in the past when I asked, the answer was that they wanted to have another product under their belt first. (I also suspect that they will want some sales results from this new product as well).

So... mattresses eh? I wonder what's so special about the "Instant Comfort"? I guess I'll have to call the company and get a video.
