As a final note, you dont have a guarantee of profits even if there IS a merger. As part of the merger, they might decide to start diluting right away, change the share structure, R/S, etc. and effectively cancel out the old shareholders of the shell. The new company doesnt neccessarily care about you. You didnt invest in THEIR company; you were a bottom-feeding gambler investing in a shell that they happened to merge into, which does not neccessarily mean that you instantly inherit the value of their company. Are you saying that LOCN would give a $h... about it's investors and allow that to happen and screw them like that? Just like DYER, LOCN (with almost identical S/S) too can go to 5.00+ without any S/S intervention.
