35,000 reads on HCPC on IHUB today. If you assume that the average reader reads 20 posts, that would put the number of people reading this board at 1700. Of those, probably 75 post.

Assume at least a quarter of the readers probably own shares. That would be about 400 people. If you have a 4 billion share float, that's about 10 million per holder. But, some holders own a huge amount, so the median number is probably 3 million shares or about a $900 investment.

Of the 400 people, probably 100 capitulated to the buyback / short / stronghands buying in the past week, leaving 300 real shareholders.

I'm guessing when we hit 4x5, at least 33% of the 300 will sell out for 100% gains. Another half of the remaining 200 will sell half their holdings and ride free shares.

This leaves in effect 150 shareholders who will go for a fun ride. Of those smarties, I wonder how many post? Probably less than 20.

I own 1.0% of the stated float myself. I hope to be one of the 150, but most likely I'd be one of the ones riding the free shares.

Fletch: I'm afraid I'm gonna have to pull rank on you. I didn't want to have to do this. I'm with the Mattress Police. There are no tags on these mattresses.
