JMHO..... I am wondering if the oncoming numbers from CPST are already out there among the players of this stock. The current run down in pps could hint at this. HOWEVER... the fact that some of the people at the company are willing to take stock instead of money does not hint at any long term panic on their part.
It would be understandable if revenue is falling. The overall market is trying to warn us that business is just ambling along at best. With China showing slowing growth, it looks as if all of us are far from out of the current downturn. Europe looks to be just a whisker away from even deeper trouble where we seem to have some good people trying to sell CPST products. I will hope for in line numbers next week, but have little faith in that and keeping my rose colored glasses in the drawer.
With all the new stock put out, at least we should have enough cash to keep going until the economy can get going again. Despite the current run down in oil prices, we are just one missile in a super taker in the mid east away from $8 dollar a gallon gas.
