Baristas Coffee Company, Inc. (BCCI)

[payperview]

The stock of this corporation has lost more than 99.9% of its value since going public in June of 2000. Only a trader that happened to get in-and-out at the most opportune of moments could have made money at this. A trader is not an investor. The chart clearly shows that as an investment BCCI has been very, very bad. Throughout all the business "reincarnations" and changes of model that this company has seen, the investors have repeatedly been diluted. Practically no one that did not get free or nearly free shares due to their relationship with Barry Henthorn has made money out of this, and certainly no one who has been an investor, even if they have gotten in-and-out on several occasions. A chart of the price history of the stock will clearly reveal that to be the case.

As far as SBUX having shut down thousands of store. So have McDonald's, KFC, Wendy's, etc.. But all of these places have thousands and thousands of locations most of which sell more in one year than all the revenues that BCCI has in one year. Keep the winners and lose the losers: in other words, get rid of BCCI.
