<<And it had some immediate effect. >> Yeah , and I've spent the last couple of hours to try and get a flavor of what the effect will be over the next couple of days / weeks ? So far , can't seem to find any that traded at this level when the news was handed down. Seems like the shareholders get bled slowly well in advance of actual delisting , so I'm left still wondering...why not here ? rob

Thanks. And it had some immediate effect. ICCSA @6 (-2 3/8) Real investors hate stocks the move the the BB market. Sometimes that actually creates a good buying opportunity (rarely). For instance QDEK was begin bought out for $0.52 cash. It was also in the process of being delisted and when it did the stock crashed to $0.45, even though 6 weeks later the deal was completed. I can't really understand it. Sure wish I had been paying enough attention to this thread to short ICCSA - it looks like it was pretty easy money as far as shorting stocks go.
