There aren't enough shares available in the trading float for a buyback to do any good for the company. All it would do is raise the sp.
I'm thinking that there is good stuff simmering in the kitchen, and as news is released the sp will respond. Keep in mind that if Doug is working a deal with another party/company with an interest in taking a stake in SPSO, that other entity would be precluded from purchasing shares on the open market until after news is made public due to insider trading laws.
