I haven't the foggiest idea whether or not the price of this stock will go higher or not. I have what I consider to be some legitimate questions about the stock, and I will try not to ask them in a negative tone, because I don't want anyone to think that I am 'bashing' the stock. However, I do feel they are legitimate questions that I hope someone can answer... 1) On previous posts, Judith asked the question " Where did the money come from to reduce the long term loans from $1,357,712.63 to $50,000? (Am I missing this and it is somehow shown here?) And Robert answered: "The Preffered share exchange. The shares were retired and reissued. The proceeds paid off most of EUTRO's long term debt. EUTRO has plans to further shrink the float beyond share resolution. However at the time all this wen down EUTRO was buried in debt and this was the best way the thought to retire it." Robert's answer was based on his conversation to Brad. My question is this...What happened to those investors who chose to do the conversion last year? Wasn't the whole conversion thing intended to reduce the float in the first place? If so, WHY would the company reissue the shares, only making worse the leak of the 50M other shares? And more importantly, how do they plan on reducing the float? Is a reverse split just a matter of time? This is an important question to me, not to cause ill feelings toward the stock, but hopefully to get an answer that is sensible, and not just 5 or 6 posts telling me to quit "bashing" the stock. I would like to be able to move past the past, and see the company do well as much as anyone here, but since I have held this stock for as long as I have (+1 yr. @ a cost of .10) this has been a question that has stuck out in my mind for quite some time. 2. While it cannot be denied that today's news release sounded good, and appears that they are moving in the right direction, there are a couple of things that I just don't understand. The news release says that Euto is trying to become a "broad range financial services company. Are they going to be a brokerage house? They obviously do not have the assets to be a commercial lender. Are they planning on providing mortgage services , (such as information services and underwriting of mortgages) for other lenders? Or does "broad range financial services" include personal portfolio management, life insurance, etc.? I would think that since one of the principals in the finance division has such a strong brokerage background, that may be the case. They also said "With this new addition, Eutro will quickly become a full service financial site for private and public companies. Does this mean that they plan to become an online trading site? If so, that would explain the only sources of revenue on the financials being from the sale of stock. However, it MAY also change my opinion of who is actually manipulating this stock. (Heck, it has already been changed once this week, so what the heck) I want to emphasize that I am asking these questions not to flame the company nor any other investor or trader here, but rather to resolve in my own mind why I still hold this stock. You all can choose to believe that or not, there is nothing I can do about that. But, if anyone can help, I would like to get some straight answers. Thanks in advance, Binder
