The problem with the that mentality is that it is NOT geared to holding long and riding through the dips and bumps. Its designed to leverage, guess, try to find any information that would provide a scintilla of proof that the stock will be going up or down, and then trade on that. Period. This CEO has been very transparent, but it seems she is not moving fast enough for some - come back in 6 months then. At this stage, IMHO, her ONLY focus right now should be to raise the money needed to achieve the successes she expects while inching through new sales programs. I want her dedicating ALL her time looking for, and securing money, because once that is done, the game is over IMHO. She is again, telegraphing what she is doing, and more importantly, whom she is doing it with. The only trouble is the typical short mentality, trading on news. So the stock drops 33% on 1000 shares traded. But the stock also shot to $7.50 on 10,000 shares traded. See CANT, they are waiting - Cantor Fitzgerald is not a shorter MM, its a reputable firm. They don't show up on the box unless they have a trade order (buy or sell), or they have a feeling something is coming after absorbing the transparency of this company.
Really, if you want this company to break out tomorrow, then you might as well sell and go away. It takes a long time, especially without the financial resources to drive the company forward. If you like the company's products, the markets it serves, and the underlying purpose of its products, then make a decision, but stop complaining every single day if the stock isn't immediately meeting your expectations. Its still up over 100% since the split last month. Most stocks crumble down to nothing within a week or 2 after the reverse. You should be able to piece together the bigger picture from the news.
As far as interest, how do we know what the interest is? When a company presents at an investment conference event, it generates interest - The attendee's at the JP Morgan event are very sophisticated investment banks and are NOT allowed to go trade into the stock based upon those presentations. The type of interest thats generated is the level of follow up - when those IB's seek the company out to express an intent to invest in. Its not a cheap OTC IR luncheon with brokers and traders where they get free lunch, and booze which mostly are designed for a quick pump. Its sophisticated Wall Street investors who go back, look at their portfolio companies, analyze the market, and do its DD on the company before even reaching back out. That takes time. I like this company, believe the CEO is grounded in reality and is transparent, and I believe she is that way whether you are a day trader to the director of a big institutional lender. She will treat them equally.
