I also own a lot of shares, and my preference is for Bill to say nothing until the deal is sealed and done.
Speculation and rumors just fuel the stock going up for no reason, then crashing down as investors get disappointed. It also allows the stock price to be manipulated to no good end for the company or normal shareholders.
When this company gets rolling, the stock price will take care of itself. The stock will be priced base on a market cap that matches revenue, profiles and growth potential. And won't be vulnerable to manipulation from smaller money OTC entities.
Of course manipulation can happen at any levels, but I'm shocked at what I see down here (actually only started an iHub account after buying TPAC).
I much prefer for the deals to get done, get announced and the stock price to adjust (never again to see .000x).
Of course this all my opinion so please don't delete it.
