wadi: re: MOASS discussion. I've been gone all day, and got in the middle of this discussion. However, the $2 pps "settlement" with Hedges/brokers would basically leave us longs out in the cold as to what we have been discussing in certain specifc other posts the past 2 weeks. I think losts of longs would not be happy. Plus the "X" factor is doug's admittly more than $300+m shares -- which he has clearly stated he wants much more than $25/share. Thus, I do not see your option (c) as ever happening. I think it is more likely that the precipitating catalyst will be maybe a stk div. as has been suggested that mgmt. has considered. Doing what you suggest, goes against the 7/27 PR of 900/500. That the 2.7b A/S was a "pipeline" amount discussed a few days ago, which was being converted to the 900m, but that latter amt. was in "pipeline". When 10k. comes out it had better show close to the 900/500 as "promised" or the pps will react negatively, IMO. Further, at approx the same time as 10k, probably a 8k will be filed for the 900/500.
Thereafter, the initial 900/500 can be modified to account for "maybe" a stk. div. to spark the covere and MOASS. If we go with your option (c) there is no MOASS occurring as has been discussed as happening.
So, IMO, I will feel mgmt. will live up to its promises and look out for increasing shareholder value to the max., along with punishing the NSS for the massive damage it has caused over the past year. Settlement with NSS will also not result in any official SEC/FINRA, etc intervention as I hope will occur.
