WinOneGipper,
You are a very clever man, but I can see through your posts.
Reverse psychology maybe? I assume so!! And I also assume you are still holding your shares, correct?
Very amusing!! It does use up MLK`s messages in response though!!
I cannot for the life of me understand MLK in his strategy, I also assume he is short this stock and I take my hat off to him for acutally being right. If he is long, he has the wrong strategy for his posts. Question the Company, the CC, the Management by all means, but see the bigger picture long.
Walt mentioned about the Q`s doing the talking, I too have mentioned this many, many times since late last year.
We all joke about don`t do a PR as the PPS will go down.
I 100% agree with Walt, no matter what the PR is, GE being the main one, it took the stock to $4`s for a very short period, then plateaued for a day or so around the $3.60, but then dropped back down to the $2.75 to $3 trading area.
In time, once the dust settles on this response to the CC, TKO will assume another trading low and high, but the dust needs to settle for a another week or so.
RP is not away for a long period of time, everything seems to hinge on RP and I personally think this could possibly be part of the reason for a certain sell off, i.e. CC done, CEO goes on holiday rather to stay around and promote the info taken from the CC. Mike Porter is moving on, RP is not 100% behind the Company and I personally think until the new COO is found, recruited and his termination period spent wherever he or she may come from, the stock stays fairly stable between the current price and the $2.20`s.
As Wlat states, the Q`s will do the talking and if Q2 is to be as expected, it will be the largest Q they have had to date, hopefully and as expected, the following 4 Q`s will be that follow on.
TKO is a stock that you can easily relate to as watching paint dry.
Although I don`t like alot of NEW2XICOR`S posts on Yahoo, he does have some substance behind his posts and I do believe that it is time for Ron to take a long hard look at his Company, give the new COO 3-6 months to get behind the wheel and then step down. Ron is too much of a control freak. He needs to listen to his staff, advisers and higher management, as not all ideas are good, and not all ways of how to run a business are good, we need a bit of a shake up within TKO, new blood and staff morale to be heightened. As Sirius states, a happy work force gets results, it`s a joy to go to work and you get the most out of your staff, especially if an idea can be implemented by lower staff members, rather than this is the way it works, take it or leave it.
I deal with many men like Ron at board level, staff morale is very low and it is just a job for the staff not something that they get out of bed in the morning and think great, I`m off to work. Illness plays high if morale is low. Everyone likes recognition and a pat on the back every now and then, right down to the cleaners, right up to board members, give recognition for good work and most importantly, lead by example, not do as I say not do as I do!!
Rant over, but TKO could be turned around so much quicker if a more dynamic person was at the helm and no offense to older members of this board, but people get set in their ways, they don`t want to work so hard e.t.c. and that snowballs down to the staff below and let`s face it, the board members of TKO collectively must add up to many hundreds of years.
P.S.
Sorry for the long post!!
p.p.s.
Anybody hear anything more about the 2 guys that were employed on $100k each for the schools and how they are getting along?
