As always well thought out advice. And since it was I that posted the original link to the site, I would like to take just a moment to explain my thought process.
The link to the July 28, 2003 DNA Phenomics PR was actually passed along to me by a friend who found it but didn't have time to examine it. From his preliminary look at the PR, he thought there may be a connection, but he was on his way out and wouldn't get another chance to look at it until later in the week. He passed it along to me and told me to "Do with it what you will."
In considering whether to post it I considered the following:
1) The website is public domain as are the PR's issued by DNA Phenomics. Granted they didn't mention DNAP by name, but I recognized DNAP's science once I read the "Resources" page.
2) While looking at the Management of the company, I noted that the COO's bio contains the following text, "Working closely with his partners in the U.S., Ezehan assembled an experienced team of business leaders, scientists, and investors to quickly bring DNA Phenomics into existence." From this I concluded that, a) his partnership appeared to have been established, as in past tense, and b) the Malaysians didn't seem concerned with it being public knowledge that they were working with U.S. companies.
3) That left DNAP and their reason for privacy. Rightly or wrongly, I concluded that their reason probably has more to do with the SEC than it does with their desire that this be kept quiet. They may not be ABLE to say anything, but that wouldn't preclude some saavy investors from taking a closer look.
What the members of this board did with the original post is truly amazing. I will reiterate that this is really an all star class of invest(igat)ors...lol The fact that this came on the heels of the Senecio discovery, and that the two ended up connected is extraordinary.
I concur with the thought that we should exercise caution, and shouldn't interfere in the company's dealings. I would certainly not post anything that I thought was out of bounds, and would encourage all investors to judge their actions and the potential ramifications very carefully before acting.
At the same time, I would point out that if a group of amateurs hanging out on a stock board came up with this information, then it is likely that other entities that are seriously interested in DNAP's business dealings know this already.
Heck, look at how much more secure that site is already, once we alerted them that their backside was a bit exposed...lol
Good advice for all. Thanks.
Later,
