Dunno what's going on.

Still trying to figure it out...

After that 100 share .22 tease.

40k traded in 10k blocks at .22

& 4.9k at .25 then 25k at .25 both at the close.

I do know that I once owned shares in this 3 mil cap or so government software company that decided they wanted to go private. They offered something like a 30% premium in cash to small shareholders, ignored a couple better offers, & I got a pittance for something I thought was a good investment they decided to give me next to nothing for. Wonder what happened to that company..except can't remember the name of it anymore.

Haven't finished Deluca's book yet. Got sidetracked on Technotrends that Cramer recommended & another book.

Sure it would be less costly to run a private company.

But not sure if that's whats happening here. Am sure that I don't want 40 cents for my shares & there are more shares than usual churning around.

A 4.3 million dollar company w/ 25 million in revenues just makes for a good investment in most books other than Royce's. Also Lipka didn't seem to want 3k shares at .25.

Saw a new Noodles & Company restaurant opened during today's travels. Seems Och-Ziff Capital Management Group just did some investing in that privately held.

Also found some cheddar & mozz blocks in Bettendorf HyVeee. Picked up one of each at $3.99.

Stopped by the Davenport HyVee since I was driving by & found more cheddar blocks for $3.99. Got 1 more. They were also participating in a price elasticity experiment & had Mozz Veggie blocks for $2.88 so picked up 4 of those just to reinforce the price point.

Still no Chipotle blocks.

Both had hummus. One at $3.99 other at $2.99.
