For me personally, I would rather sell anything but SPZI! I believe that owning both is great but wouldn't dream of selling SPZI at these levels. I would rather work some more OT for more funds to invest. LOL

I think that would be a crazy strategy.

Seeing that Spooz owns 141 shares, owning Spooz means that you're indirectly owning 141 shares. With Spooz ownership, you're insulated against anything bad that may happen to 141, but if you sell Spooz to buy 141, you effectively remove that protection should 141 go under for whatever reason.

I can see owning both Spooz and 141 (depending on PPS and SS of 141 compared to Spooz), but destroying your shield is foolhardy.

Good question songbirdia. There will be some selling but it will be profit taking. The profits will go into 141 instead of an unrelated entity. Should be a good thing.

(edited) good question!!

in my opinion, no way!!

if you sell spzi now and buy 141 later, you miss out on any pps boost to spzi resulting from the 141 ipo.

if you wait til after that boost and then sell spzi, then buy 141 with that money, you might make a little extra but I don't think it would be much at all.

yes, the spzi o/s is much bigger, but we own probably near 33% of the 141. Now combine that with the fact that you would benefit from two P/E ratios by owning spooz...

I'll try to put up some numbers this weekend to see what you all think, but my gut tells me Paul crafted this carefully to make sure spzi owners will not jump ship.

just my opinions, to be continued...

peace
