fwiw, i've had a few stocks go grey over the years, and watched many more go through it.
on the 28th, the suspension will lift, and MIKP will trade in the grey sheets, where there are no market makers actively posting bids and asks. technically, all of our shares still exist, and we can still trade. but placing orders will be a shot in the dark, and may require manual broker assistance, even if matching trades exist in the ether.
to get back to pink status, Mark needs to petition market makers to represent the stock again.
if Mark has a credible explanation for the suspension, and can pitch a good case for future volatility (aka: MM profit-cycle opportunities), then the MMs may get MIKP rolling again.
only time will tell. and sadly, the MMs have many other stocks to play with.
being able to post revenue (ie: a single SJF film sale from AFM) should increase the odds of MMs wanting to trade MIKP again (they profit nicely in momo rallies).
but no telling when that sale will come.
honestly, if i were Mark in this situation, i'd make the effort to petition the MMs, but if none stepped up, i'd refocus on growing the company into one worth petitioning for a higher OTC or Nas status in 2013.
btw, i'm traveling, so haven't read all the posts here yet.
just posting this info in case someone else hasn't already.
99.99% of all pinks are scams. Best to assume the other 0.01% are as well.
