The miracle ECD needs is a take no prisoners executive to insist that enforceable contracts are executed. A company that lives on research and intellectual property will die, as ECD appears to be doing, unless they are able to collect on their licenses.

There were rumors that a major announcement was going to be made by ECD at an ECD investor meeting today in NYC arranged by Ruder- Finn. Since no announcement was made, I assume that traders who had anticipated this announcement bailed out. Bob Stempel has been interviewed by Bloomberg, Reuters & Business Week & hopefully some favorable PR has begun. A market cap of $70 million for ECD bears no resemblence to reality & takes into account not much more than the cash balance & the value of the tax-loss carryover. The only things Wall St has left out is the patent portfolio, the joint ventures & the vast earnings potential.
