I am sure that most T/A's have policies like this. These policies are set up so that they don't say anything that either may release something that the company doesn't want released yet, good or bad, or that may be misconstrued incorrectly and sends the stock up or down. I am sure that they don't want to get implicated in any insider trading crap. The policy appears to be a protective CYA policy and I don't blame them.
The only release of information that will clear anything up will be an official press release from the company. Everything else that is said on this website is pure speculation. The December 31st filings are all we have to go by right now and any changes that were announce or made since then. Nothing has been released to the contrary, such as a rise in the O/S, so anything that we say on this website other than what has been released has no merit.
