I am an anonymous poster just the same as you. You want me to be a dentist in your mind, I am a dentist. You want me to be hedge fund manager, I am a hedge fund manager. How about a market maker? or a circus clown? Maybe I'm a Hollywood star? Maybe a rock star? What don't you understand about being a doctor that has been in practice 20 plus years that has identified cancer in my career and knows the value of recaf. Enough said!!! You want to discredit me go ahead. I only am here because like Gaboy and Half and many others, I have a financial interest in Biocurex, and I refuse to let some anonymous poster deceive potential investors. The list of doctors that see recaf as a valuable tool in cancer diagnosis is steadily growing. That is the last statement about me. It is an offense to ask posters to identify who they are. Does that ring a bell? Move on before you lose your priveleges, and boy that would be a huge disappointment.
Funny. You think I'm Wittenberg? Why? Because you can't believe someone that is a doctor can speak highly about what Dr Moro has discovered and accomplished? If I'm a dentist then you write science fiction novels. Don't speak or assume you know something about someone or something you certainly do not!!!
Now you want to quote doctors or use information that you feel compelled to make a now insignificant argument, and is just proving the point that you would and will cotinue to try and diminish the importance of the latest discovery about recaf that was reported at the 2009 ISOBM only a few weeks ago. Recaf used in conjunction with the PSA will give ZERO FALSE POSITIVES. I want you to explain why this recent news that is literally only a few weeks old has not changed your entire argument. You absolutely HAVE cancer. NO chance of not being malignant. And you know that it is prostrate cancer. What else do want? It will be malpractice NOT to use recaf. Tell that to the jury when you are sued. That is IMO the most significant reason that recaf IS RELEVANT and will be accepted worldwide, not to mention the point of care with Inverness and the Oncopet which has huge market potential. You sir now have the burden of why it won't be successful since the case is steadily building why it will be successful. Your old arguments just don't hold water any longer. The desperation in your posts are very evident of this fact. Post away.
You picked someone that thinks like you and has no regard for life or suffering. Listen to this from your brilliant Dr Kramer: "the lifetime risk of dying of prostate cancer is just over 3 percent. This means about 97 percent of men will not die of prostate cancer; but they can be harmed by screening and subsequent unnecessary therapy. Likewise, about 1 percent of women will die of ovarian cancer and 99 percent will not, irrespective of screening."
Wow!!!! I could give you reasons why the war should continue according to this guy. If statistically we only lost 9,000,000 children or young adults who cares? It is only 3% of the population. You picked a perfect match to prove how ridiculous your effort to diminish the importance of life is to you. Keep the quotes coming. You are only sounding more absurd by the minute. What a joke.
Gold put his foot in his mouth by asking <Ok, please cite anyone not connected with BioCurex that has said RECAF is one of the most significant findings today.>
You are discrediting the CHAIRMAN (chosen by his peers as a leader in cancer biomarkers) of the ISOBM (which is an international group of scientists that are ALL looking for new cancer biomarkers) who called recaf a "miracle protein".
When someone associates recaf with the word "miracle" I would accept that statement as embracing the findings of recaf as one the most significant findings in cancer diagnosis.
Also, let's dissect the meaning of what the Chairman of the ISOBM was referring when he called recaf a "miracle protein". A miracle is wonders performed by supernatural power as signs of some special mission or gift and explicitly ascribed to God.......... A GIFT FROM GOD. Is that not a significant finding in modern medicine? Why can't you embrace this gift? It could save your life or someone close to you. It is sad what you are trying to do.
I said, "You fail to acknowledge that this is the most significant finding in medicine today."
CORRECTION: You fail to acknowledge that this is one of the most significant findings in cancer diagnosis today.
Sorry
How can they not be still on the naked short list? Yesterday I expected them to begin buying to cover since this charade was exposed. Obviously, those criminals really don't seem alarmed. Greed will bring this to an end. As far as Mata, he "assumed" that trade was automated. No one knows with certainty who is shorting, but we can finally agree that it heavily shorted beyond the amount of available shares making it illegal and creating headwinds as well as the illusion that shareholders are selling.
This was a litmus test that my broker suggested I try. He did it for me at no charge. I talked to him about the illegal trading and he said it would be easy to find out this way. The worst that could happen is own another 100 shares at half price, but it also could be a documented trade that could be sent to the SEC. I really feel like these perpetrators are about to be stunned and shut down. I am hoping they get jail time. You can't screw with other people's hard earned money.
Astray is an understatement. I would call it immoral, unethical, and illegal. They have been very sloppy the past few weeks. Desperation has set in. There is just too much good news, and I sense the spicket is about to be open wide up. I hope they drown. Greedy bastards. Just glad I didn't fall for their trickery. I hope their passports are expired and they rot in jail. This is nothing more than white collar thievery. Expect fines, jailtime, and banned from trading..
I know today that the market maker is in on it. Tested the waters with a market order of 100 shares. Should have filled at .15 but filled at .14. I have more proof that fraud is being committed against shareholders.
I know what time it is. Gold, do you know time it is? I think everyone reading this board knows what time it is.
All we are seeing is alot of shares moving around like a shell game. The SEC is about to find out who has been moving those shares around. Naked shorting is illegal. There are no ways to defend this. The law is clear on this.
Gold, who's fooling who?
Some bold individuals must not know that they are flagged by the SEC. They are playing with fire, and the hole is they are digging is getting much closer to 6 feet deep. IMO, they are diggibg their own grave. RIP.
I bet we see .17-.20 today. Some of the illegal and ill-gotten gains will be returned to shareholders because the scammers will now have cover. Too late to cover their tracks from the SEC. I would be happy to testify against them, because I have pointed out inconsistencies in trading patterns.
Gold, first of all YOU are responsible for causing Moro to file an amended 10k. You don't point out that Moro is not an attorney nor is he an accountant. He relys on his legal team to file correctly. There was no deception that merited a penalty of 250,000 dollars. It was YOU that threatened Moro and triggered the sequence of events that forced the penalty at the worst possible time in the company's history. We were already low on cash and this was IMO unnecessary punishment. You on the other hand gloated and this was a victory for you. You then proceeded for several months to claim insiders were selling, Wittenberg left to sell, employees were jumping ship, Moro had no investors, there was no market for recaf, he had no cash to go to the ISOBM. In REALITY, what actually was true? The exact opposite. No one sold or left, Wittenberg "stepped down" in the best interest of the company and allowed 2 experienced biotech executives to join the board which had an immediate effect on the stock and the future of the company. Not only that, Moro had 17 investors willing to invest in the company, Smithline removed the penalties and gave Moro ample time to raise additional funds. If that is not a vote of confidence in recaf and Dr Moro I don't know what is. He also found the time to go to Amsterdam and report astonishing results that prove that when combining recaf with the current markers ALL FALSE POSITIVES CAN BE ELIMINATED. If that is not groundbreaking and a huge advancement for doctors and modern medicine then I don't what else is. Like Gaboy just stated you aren't fooling anyone here. You are by no means a friend to shareholders or to Biocurex. You are the exact opposite, and if by chance you are associated with Lampost or any other individuals that are now curently under investigation I hope that justice will be served.
First off, Goldseeker you certainly are a NOT a friend to Biocurex nor to its shareholders. You instigate trouble more often when trouble is not even evident. You have one mission. That is to see this company fail and recaf be shelved. You attempt to rewrite every filing and report it as though Dr Moro is perpetrating a fraud within all his filings and you constantly question his data whether it be any positive press release (you refer to it as a pump, that is laughable) or new application for recaf. Do you think Dr Moro sits down with a typewriter and writes all the press releases and filings. Please!!! There are attorneys that review and edit all filings and press releases. They are bound by law. You are an anonymous poster in a chatroom. I think any intelligent investor would take the word of a legal team and the lead scientist and CEO of a company than you. Not only that, there has been outside verification in labs other than Biocurex worldwide and by Abbott for that matter.
For all I know you may be associated with Lampost. Now wouldn't that be the ultimate kharma? They are about to go down and I hope they fry.
Everyone knows that you constantly dissect every word and have personally cost Biocurex and shareholders 250,000 in penalties to Smithline for an honest mistake. That 250,000 at .14 cents dilutes shareholders another 3,571,428 shares with warrants. Gold, you are not here to help investors let's be clear about that. Don't for one minute confuse your freedom of speech with being a friend to shareholders. You have an agenda. That much is very clear. What happened to taking the weekend off? That did not last.
Mata, after I read the description of their services I feel like I need a shower.
They aren't that good at what they do. They just got themselves and their client an SEC investigation. They just got too greedy and now they will have fines and possible jail time. I hope both.
Gold, you have my permission to take a day off. Relax. Biocurex will be here to fight another day.
<Did Moro give Smithline permission to short?>
Answer is NO. It is in the contract written by attorneys. This is not a handshake deal. There is serious money at stake. Moro said No shorting. You read it. I see bigtime repercussions if Smithline did not abide by a legal contract.
<We have beaten this to death. See you next week.>
You don't like when your theories are proven wrong. Amusing.
<Half, I don't care what the loan agreement says, logic says that Smithline is shorting the stock. This is not just a few hundred thousand someone is shorting and no one has that number of cheap warrants for insurance.>
You couldn't be serious. Just because your opinion is that it isn't Smithline how can a legal binding agreement not be adhered to. Remember that quarter of a million dollar fine paid to Smithline for an error with the filing? Moro would love to catch Smithline in an illegal maneuver. It's not Smithline. That blows your theory. I think it is someone that has an agenda and is very immoral and greedy.
Do you think Smithline is happy with their choice to allow Biocurex the time required to raise the money (which was a huge success unlike your prediction of bankruptcy, loss of all the assets and IP)?
Do you agree that Biocurex shareholders have been wronged and that the share price has been manipulated for quite some time? How is this different from stealing? Why is naked shorting illegal? There are laws for reasons. There always people that have no morals or ethics that feel they are smarter than everyone or feel a sense of entitlement. The story always ends the same way. Greed will set the trap and justice will be served. If it is Smithline naked shorting they should pay fines and penalties and dismiss the remainder of the loan or I would press criminal charges. Dr Moro did not spend most of his life to discover a medical miracle only to have its intrinsic value diminshed because of greed by a few small minded loan sharks.
Money makes people do evil things. I think those individuals are mistakingly thinking that this charade can go on without being exposed. They have done great harm to shareholders and to the company. Many have misjudged Dr Moro's resolve and his ability to remain focused.
Inverness has made quite a comeback with investors and it appears that they are in the sweet spot of medical diagnostics with all of their POC tests. You don't think that a POC test for cancer would be a huge success? They can't be disappointed with the results presented at the ISOBM. They are also involved in veterinary medicine.
Why do you think Inverness no longer wants recaf? What has changed other than the fact that we know it can detect early cancer and that when used in conjuction with other markers that are specific to a particular cancer it boosts specifity to 90% and also removes the worry of obtaining a false positive. I would say quite the contrary and Inverness is licking their chops right now. They have a gift of rolling the dice on new technologies and it has paid off for them BIG TIME! We will be another succesful product added to their PIMA analyzer, and POC is the holy grail in diagnostics and they are the leader.
I'm expecting mor collaborations as a result of the ISOBM and a new licensee. IMO, it will be Abaxis. They seem to the most logical. IMO, we will see Dr Moro's lab begin testing in house until it becomes logistically impossible to process all the tests in our lab.
There is alot happening. It all seems to be very positive. The only tragedy that MUST be resolved is to end the stock manipulation. There are so many examples of biotech companies that have no products, no revenue, and are priced at 20-30 dollars on a wing and a prayer. It makes no sense why we are priced at this level when we were 4 dollars and only had a radioisotope test. Crazy!
Gold, you are speculating on Smithline manipulating the stock. How do you know with certainty this to be the case? If you can provide evidence it would be helpful, otherwise, I don't think it is them. There are others that have made serious money shorting this highly illiquid stock over a period of many years.
Thanks two good posts from Gold and from Gaboy. Both provided good information.
Smithline was by far the worst thing that ever happened to this company. Most companies have issues with their technology. They overpromise and underdeliver. Here we have the exact opposite. We have a technology that far exceeds expectations and Dr Moro's hunch to apply new techniques and various applications for the technology that have reaffirmed that this is a technology that will generate multiple revenue streams.
Smithline appears to have some power over the company, but that power is slowly diminishing and should become a valuable lesson to the Dr Moro and the new board that you must not count your chickens beore they hatch. The good news is that Dr Moro has dug himself and the company out of a hole and the resignation of Dr Wittenberg (that negotiated the Smithline deal) is slowly erasing the past mistakes and we are moving forward. The dilution is a part of the game. We can always do a reverse split once we are comfortable with the future of the company. That would rectify the amount of shares outstanding.
Gold said, "if you examine the practicallity of that maneuver, it would be very difficult that would probably need the assistance of a market maker."
It absolutely involves the market maker. I pointed out obvious intentional deceptive and dubious trading before. Did anyone notice that a trade went thru THIS MORNING at 9:25. OTC stocks are not available to trade in the premarket. How did rhat trade go thru (lower than the previous day's share price) to appear that selling was going on. IMO the market maker IS involved and will be a part of the investigation. The greed will lead to their demise. Isn't that the way all criminals get caught? There are people aware of this and today's press release has pulled the sheets back and the lights came on. Now we will soon see who has been screwing us. Sorry for the metaphor, but I hope they don't see it coming and their passports are expired. There is no defense to naked shorting. No matter who you are. That press release today. Do you think that was a coincidence? I don't. I think it is a message that not just me and Mata are aware of scam trading. I'll let the evidence speak for itself. Like Mata said, they have thrown all caution to the wind and really aren't convinced that they are truly under investigation. IMO, there will a resolution. It can't be a good thing for the thieves to have their cover blown and posted on a website for the SEC to investigate.
I would say this is pretty serious. Wouldn't you? I have felt for quite some time that someone was selling in one acct and buying in another acct to walk the share price lower. Now I have found a link that proves my (and Mata's) belief that we are and have been defrauded. Like I said in an earlier post, the stars are lining up for Biocurex. To get this situation rectified and the perpetators brought to justice would remove most of the major headwinds that have kept this stock from really breaking out. No one can refute the technology is cutting edge and we have caught the attention and added 2 new experienced biotech exectives that have the connections to launch recaf worldwide. IMO, Dr Moro is about to make his discovery known with a marketing launch that will garner media attention. It's what investors have been waiting for. The shareholder meeting is just over 2 weeks away.
Half, thanks for your input on bringing the criminals to justice. The SEC needs to make an example out this case and give them the maximum penalties. You steal from me.....you WILL pay!!!
The bold actions caused completely because of greed have been exposed. It is now published for all to see that the company's shareholders have been robbed. This a crime. Instead of a gun they use a computer. They stole from me and I won't stand for it. They put this company and shareholders at risk of losing their entire investment because of a fraud. We are officially on the NAKED short list. How can people be that greedy AND STUPID. They should have quit before this was exposed. I want our company to use their attorneys to make them pay. Prison time and fines that make their ill-gotten gains all for naught. Let the punishment fit the crime. I hope they burn.
Mata, you said, "help is on the way."
The SEC? I would have to assume that there is an abundance of evidence and fines and hopefully jailtime for the perpetrators. I've watched this share price move eratically over a 5 year period and certain individuals have preyed on the illiquidity of this stock. I loathe these individuals and feel as though they have "stolen" from me, the company, and other shareholders that played by the rules and followed the law.
As a sidebar, I would hope that Dr Moro would take the opportunity he is about to be given by his loyal shareholders, and once he raised the millions he feels is necessary to launch recaf he will also fulfill an older promise to get us listed on a senior stock exchange. Think small we will stay small. Think big and the world is your oyster. By the way, superb results on the presentation at this year's ISOBM. That really has not been given enough discussion. I am curious to see the press release about the ISOBM.
No comments about the NAKED short sales. It doesn't help Gold's cause to acknowledge this illegal scandal.
Bottomline is that this will be a real company VERY soon when they finally begin to have earnings.
Goldseeker, this stock is being MANIPULATED. You are not correct. There is no one selling.
I see you never commented on my proof. Why can that be?? HMMM????
Here it is again IT SAYS: NEW TO NAKED SHORT LIST
http://www.buyins.net/tools/short_list.php?dys=1
It is no longer just a hunch or a fallacy. We ARE being illegally shorted. It has been uncovered and published for the SEC to bring justice for the shareholders that have been wronged and illegally had their investment dollars stolen. Now it is FACTUAL. I knew the story was too good to have the share price brush off any significant news.
Gold, you want to see proof that Biocurex is being ILLEGALLY shorted
http://www.buyins.net/tools/short_list.php?dys=1
This should be an important fact that needs to be addressed. With all of the positive news flow, there is no way that this company shouldn't be at a 52 week high.
<If Moro was willing to answer questions, you could ask him why but Moro no longer appears to desire questions from shareholders>
Uh, what do you think will happen at the shareholder meeting? Did you think that Dr Moro is just going take the fifth and ask shareholders to give him their money to become a part of his cult. I'll try to remember not to drink the Kool Aid.
<Going into the public offering with a market price of 14 cents could mean a offering price of 7 cents plus warrants.>
7 cents my A** There is no way he will discount the price 50%. Nice try. If he did he really may have already had commitments lined up. Inverness or Abbott may want a piece of the action.
Gold, you stated, "Half, if RECAF could generate 1 billion in sales, Abbott would have been falling all over themselves to continue developing the test. They are not."
First, go back 4 or 5 years. All Abbott invested in was a radioisotope. I don't have to list all the accomplishments Dr Moro has accomplished with recaf since he started. He himself did not know that recaf can detect EARLY cancer, it shows up in saliva, and in urine, and in different species other than human. We sold a prototype. A first generation recaf persay, and now it has evolved into a lucrative biomarker capable of cancer detection like no other marker out there. I would say Abbott is NOT stupid. They ARE on board.
Second, Half was speaking about POTENTIAL earnings. Well, I am not going to say he is correct or incorrect in his assumption of a billion in sales. What small thing he and you overlooked was that the share price you both calculated was not taking into consideration the share price would have to have a multiple (a P/E ratio). Now go back and figure the share price with a 5-10 P/E multiple. The share price becomes 5-10 times GREATER than you both were calculating. Now how do you like them apples? Still think this will not be a huge return on your money. Coulda, woulda, shoulda.
You can add the entire planet outside the US to Canada. It would never take a year anyway. Don't be foolish. A 510K only takes a few months FOR HUMANS. Get real. Let's see, yep, your still batting a thousand. Not!
http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/117913.php
Please note it is Inverness and it is for vet use
AVI Biopharma (our new board member was previous CEO...bird flu)
In other words he has experience with bird flu and
I believe they created the POC tests
Bottom line. We have a unique product that will have a HUGE market potential. It works like nothing out there. IMO, we will outsell the BRAC. Inverness has the know-how as well as our board to get it approved and market it. I've been patient and just as shareholders in Apple, I will be rewarded. Gold, keep firing all the shots you want at our company. Eventually you will will realize you are shooting blanks.
Gold, you seem to dismiss what is a FACT
Again, Pre-market Approval is Not Required: The FDA does not require submission of a 510(k) or formal pre-market approval for devices used in veterinary medicine.
That is taken off the FDA website. Add to that Dr Moro stated there would be NO REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS for pet-recaf.
Gold, wrong again. First, don't get upset when you see how the word is spreading. Look for yourself http://caninecancerblog.blogspot.com/
Second, get some more Visine.
How FDA Regulates Veterinary Devices
The Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) defines medical devices as "an instrument, apparatus, implement, machine, contrivance, implant, in-vitro reagent, or other similar or related article, including any component, part, or accessory thereof, which is intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions; in the cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease in man or other animals; or which is intended to affect the structure or any function of the body of man or other animals." Further, a device "does not achieve any of its principal intended purposes through chemical action within or on the body of man or other animals, and is not dependent upon being metabolized for the achievement of any of its principal intended purposes." Examples of devices include such things as needles, syringes, surgical instruments, prosthetic devices, X-ray equipment, certain diagnostic test kits, and dental appliances.
Pre-market Approval is Not Required: The FDA does not require submission of a 510(k) or formal pre-market approval for devices used in veterinary medicine. Firms that manufacture radiation emitting devices need to register their products under the radiological health regulations, administered by the Center for Devices Radiological Health (CDRH).
Device manufacturers who exclusively manufacture, or distribute veterinary devices are not required to register their establishments and list veterinary devices.
FDA does have regulatory oversight over veterinary devices and can take appropriate regulatory action if a veterinary device is misbranded, mislabeled or adulterated.
It is the responsibility of the manufacturer and/or distributor of these articles to assure that these animal devices are safe, effective, and properly labeled.
FDA recommends that devices should meet or be equivalent to the performance standards. This is especially important devices that can be used both in humans and animals, such as examination gloves, sterile catheters, infusion pumps, etc.
FDA recommends that manufacturers and/or distributors of veterinary medical devices request a review of their product labeling and promotional literature to ensure that it complies with labeling and regulations. This includes devices marketed in another country and offered for importation into the U.S.
Third, you sitting down?
Consultations with the pertinent Government agencies in the USA and Canada indicate that neither the "homebrew" tests for veterinary use, nor the production facilities require regulatory approval.
Given the absence of regulatory delays as well as the fact that the technology is ready for use, the Company expects to take OncoPet(tm) to market within the next few months and to that effect, it has already registered the www.oncopet.net domain.
Fourth, and the knockout blow
Dr. Moro stated: "OncoPet(tm) is our response to generate revenue as quickly as possible. It is now ready for use and it requires no approvals that would excessively delay its launching. Marketing in North America is straight forward and the veterinarians we consulted are enthusiastic about the potential the test has to offer. Other markets such as Europe and Japan may be accessed via licensing or distribution agreements. OncoPet(tm) is now ready for use with dogs, but we anticipate it will also be as effective for cats, which approximately doubles the market size."
Sorry kid you are batting a thousand.......in being wrong. Yawn. Case closed.
How is that what you profess to know has not been accurate in the past, so why do you suddenly think you are correct today?
I noticed you basically called Dr Moro a liar with the data he presented at the ISOBM. The fact that you can't read the writing on the wall or your failure to connect the dots will IMO be one of those rare opportunities that just passed you by. If that data presented at the ISOBM got published what do you think would happen to the stock price? Well consider yourself privy to have that information before it becomes widespread knowledge that doctors will be confident in their diagnosis with ZERO false positives. That information alone is worth investing in the company.
Gold, why don't you put your money where your mouth is and short the hell out of this stock, please! If you are so adamant about the failure of Biocurex double down. You have an opportunity to recoup your alleged 150,000 dollar loss. The stars are aligning for Dr Moro. I am sorry to disappoint you after spendings hours of your life for many years and now you have ruined your chances of regaining any losses because you lost faith or patience or both. Well, I am proud to be a shareholder and see a very different picture, but thanks for the warning. Dr Moro now has 2 seasoned board members that have invested their own cash into the company, and they possess the experience to move this company forward. That single move, IMO, has resulted in proof that other leaders in the diagnostic and therapeutic biotech industry (besides Abbott and Inverness which are behemouths in the field) agree with MY assessment of recaf. That holds much more weight than an anonymous poster posing to save investors. Did you ever get around to apologizing to GreatGrandma and many of the other longterm investors you "scared" from achieving their dreams. There has not been any selling. Can that possibly mean that YOU are that brilliant or are you just a lone wolf?
No sales in China........................YET
No sales in the US for Dog RECAF.........YET
No one will license the ELISA test.......YET
Which way does the water rotate when you flush the stool?......COUNTERCLOCKWISE
I am quite suprised and amused that Gold has not yet conceded. The sudden change in direction of the pendulum swinging in favor of Biocurex is priceless. Halloween is coming up. Goldseeker, maybe you can try and scare some children. Boo!
The proxy card has been delivered to shareholders. It is CRUCIAL that mangement is given the green light. It has now become a matter of trust. If Dr Moro was a good businessman he would open pandora's box and give shareholders the long awaited concrete news (I am assuming there is more). As it was suggested earlier, it makes sense to get the share price back up to minimize dilution.
It would now seem apparent that Goldseeker is close to conceding. His tone is mellowing and he is now realizing that Biocurex is in another category compared to his other favorite comparisons. The ISOBM had to open some eyes to the benefits of Recaf. IMO, it is a perfect scenario for doctors that will not let go of the current markers. I am sure they are happy to get a piece of the pie as well as have a definitive answer as to whether the cancer is malignant or benign.
Bottom line, the approval increase the number of shares is the only remaining obstacle. Shareholders must be smart enough to realize that the amount of shares requested will not be fully issued. It is a security blanket. Dr Moro NEVER wants to be in a similar position than what he had to go thru over financing again. It is remarkable that during all of that he was able to accomplish a majority of his goals while the house was burning down. The fire is out, and he is rebuilding. He only wants more shares as reinforcement. It also is a form of a poison pill (if I am wrong, please correct me), and that is a GOOD thing.
