Volume=investor interest. With that in mind on friday august 3, 2012 the pps was at .10 with 0 volume. On monday august 6, 2012 it closed at $1 with a volume of 100. Over that weekend Ed Starrs was vulnerable to selling and rumors went crazy. How does it go from .10- $1 in one day with such little volume (investor interest)? I understand the ss was different. Think about this- IF he retired a large portion of his shares and restructured, as no company is going to buy a company allowing the ceo to keep 3 billion shares, and got a nice buyout to retire shares. With an average volume at 30 million, how would you feel about the pps after the restructuring with that much interest? Let's face it, the 3 bill shares are damaging the pps more than anything as investors are fearful of dilution(even rumors). The 3 bill shares must go one way or another. It's too damaging. I know he is a man of integrity. That's the difference between your perception and mine. Now, how do you feel about the possibility of a buyout? BTW, If he didn't sell, restructured (retired shares), and sold at a later time, that sell would compensate him for the salary he missed as he took the 3 bill shares in lieu of a salary for 3 years. How would you like that pps?
