Well, you pays your money and you takes your choice! I see a stock falling like a stone, with 3.5 million shares potentially hitting the market tomorrow, raising the float from 6m to 9.5m shares, and.. I just get that uneasy feeling! :-0

LLCoolG -- There's something you say that I don't get. Or at least you seem to say it. "If the INKT stock price goes below 110, that means the company will go out of business." How do you deduce that? The stock price has no effect on the revenues or profitability of the company. Believe me, the stock price can go to $2.75 and INKT will still be in business. They'll just adopt a poison pill. Been there, done that. Geoff

LLCoolG I am marvelled by your investing advice you had the opportunity to sell at 150 when I told you it was going back below 100 but you said you didn't care if it did I think most investors that lost 50% in this stock over the last 2 weeks (like yourself)should think long and hard before their next investment. It was so obvious it was going to go down. Then to say you bought more shares yesterday just prior to millions of shares becoming free trading I question your investing strategy it is like no other I have ever seen you would probably have better luck in Vegas. Par, I would wait at the very least a couple of weeks before getting into this one. It will be at buy levels soon.
