Jason - thanks.
I think most of us appreciate the back-story about the bad guys getting caught and jailed. Your respect for Nixon indicates that you don't think he is a crook, even though somehow he got taken advantage of by crooks.
Your opinion about Takiza is worth something. I don't think it is a surprise that it's expensive small portions. Someone else commented on that a year ago. But shrink-flation is all the rage. Hopefully what he offers is as good as the few Google reviews say it is. People in the Denver area must have the money to burn, and the reviews say they are happy to do so at his place.
This is not an argument, but I notice that you don't actually mention anything about what Nixon said to you about his future plans. In fact -- and this also isn't a dig -- there's a lot you don't talk about.
You don't directly talk about relisting plans from Nixon's mouth, or why he let himself get revoked, or why he hired Brenda Hamilton, or what happened with Ilegal Mezcal and the trademark case (and why he has scaled back his Illegal Brands products), or why Nixon Restaurant Group is still registered in Florida but Nixon let West Coast Ventures Group Corp get administratively dissolved after moving it to Florida, or whether Nixon is going to open a second Takiza Taco place on Wynkoop St, or what his franchising plans are, ... and so many other things that inquiring minds what to know.
You said, "Should the stock re-open, I'll trade it accordingly ..." which isn't assurance that Nixon said it will re-open, but conversely it isn't as dogmatically down as frequent posters here say it is ('It's dead and will never relist'). You mention that Amazon and Starbucks "took a decade to get moving," so that won't make the penny-flippers happy. But still, it suggests that you think Nixon will continue to stick it out like they did.
You say, "... WCVC short squeeze long would put me well over the top. Well over the top." which also indicates that you think that relisting is a possibility.
You wrote, "there is NO institutional demand for WCVC," but how could there be since it is revoked? But if a "short squeeze" isn't entirely unthinkable, what would drive that short squeeze?
Thanks for your contributions, and anything else you want to contribute as an expert trader. If you can't say certain things because it's insider information, or can't even say "I can't say anything" which might suggest you possess insider information, that's OK. But hey, if you can just mosey over to Wynkoop St and take a look at what's going on at 1519, that would be great.
