There are traders and investors.
I assume we'll lose some traders today if the price doesn't rocket, and I agree with your long term assessment.
I sort of feel like the "PR Pump" days are hopefully behind us. Sometimes they are necessary evils, but the good news is they've never really lied, only used real events to raise capital.
So what we will be left with is just a real company and their attempts to break into the game with the big boys. In the end, solid financials are what will bring value here, more PR's won't, unless they clearly define growth, address execution or show how bottom line is improving.
That being said, a MONSTER partnership would also add equally (if not more) value. A quality and industry respected partner is sometimes a better catalyst for growth.
