Nuance Communications, Inc. (NUAN)

Another consideration about stocks...

in general. Just basic stuff like this Nuance situation this morning - sure they might have some new product, but, if the support is not there and/or other problems, you have to consider it.

As another example, this VPRT is running this morning, but, I am not participating. Again, it has a beautiful chart set up, and accelerating earnings, and I even picked up some pilot shares earlier in the week in anticipation of today, bought low 36.

However, I sold them all just under 38, after seeing all of the consumer complaints about them. That, and their Bermuda corporate address. I mentioned last fall I don't like this type of corporate offshore solution.

And who knows, maybe all the complaints are just from general public looking for free business cards and then getting charged too much for shipping - I didn't see other business customer complaints. However, I never tried out their higher-end services, and since I didn't, I'm not chasing the stock today because I don't intend to be an investor.

I put a bid in this morning after the open - just for a trade, it missed by $.05, so, it's on to other plays.
