Wasnt it over a dollar a few years ago??? The 52 week high was at 8 cents and i am assuming you bought between those two. You merely bought it as it was still on a downward. Plus as far as i am concerned one should never give friends stock advice without telling them the risks of said stock......better still its probably not a good idea at all.....i myself bought this one because it seemed like a decent penny, was cheap and i wont lose my shirt. I did my research and didnt ask for advice. Sorry you lost some cash on this but it can very easily go back up....i hope it does....
