Thanks for your reply. I see where you're coming from, but I buy at the same time it appears you do. I'm not sure that changes, as I don't see why we can't buy (stocks without the CE). You said:
"We will not be allowed to buy on the expert market".
Why do you think that? I realize we won't be able to buy stocks with the caveat emptor designation, but they certainly don't all have that. Yes, all the stocks on the greys won't be current, otherwise they would be on the pinks. But many stocks with a stop sign or yield sign don't have the CE designation. I'm gonna struggle to come up with examples right now as I'm close to falling asleep, but I'm positive that some of the custodian plays I've gotten into weren't CE stocks when the custodian made the motion to file. So I think our options will become more limited, but I don't see the general idea going away. I also think you'll see more dormant shells getting current just so they can stay on the pinks, or move back up if they get dropped down to the greys. Ive owned AT*CC for many years (formerly GR*YO). That was the one and only shell I've ever owned that was an SEC filer while being a shell. I think Justin Costello's DC*DG was also an SEC filer when he took over, or was at least current (now GR*NF). Extremely rare situations for now, but I think will become much more commonplace going forward. Time will tell I suppose.
