It's also half of it's all time high and actually below where it was at their only split almost 5 years ago. How is that fair? Does that show management competence?

Suppose that they do meet or beat expectations. What is best one could hope for? Is it really going to make any difference? Who's going to buy the stock if the institutions don't want it?

By all standards, Singaporians should value this company at a significant premium to the US. Sim is supposedly a god there and it's their best home-grown company. Yet there is no significant buying there either. Why not? Why do they dislike this company so much?

Fact is, Sim has created a pervasive culture of disgust with this stock. How is he going to overcome it?

Savoirman,

<As it is, all I see is incredible impatience.>

In all due respect, this is absurd. Long term CREAF holders have been EXTREMELY patient.

Look at the chart below below which covers nearly TWO YEARS.

techstocks.com

This stock hasn't appreciated any in almost 2 years. I wouldn't exactly call that "incredible impatience", especially as we have watched the NASDAQ set incredible records for the last 2 years.

<There is a quiet period now so the company is not saying anything until earnings late Jan.>

There was nothing prohibiting Sim from pre-announcing good news if there indeed is any.

I think those of us who are still holding this stock have showed almost super human patience. Unfortunately, many investors are at the end of their limits which is totally understandable.
