I agree, Mr Thompson has shown poor management/PR skills. In hindsight, many might excuse as ´simple´ mistakes. PR101 - ´If you´re not sure you can fulfill your word, don´t put it public´. ´Under promise, over perform´. Simply adding the word ´tentative´ could of saved him.

If he´s any bit concerned about investor confidence (he should be, that´s a responsiblity he assumed by putting the company public) and has any common sense, he has to make some public statement in the 3 days that are left in FEB. I´m anxious to see what Mr. Thompsons made of.........From his performance for the last three months, I don´t have high expectations.

Distrust of what? Their ability to predict future events with absolute accuracy?

Maybe he had a deal 90% complete and it fell through last minute. Maybe there have been biological complications like zinc says.

I certainly trust a CEO that acts like this to one that would hold a CC prematurely just to keep the hounds from the door. Things obviously have not gone as quickly as Kim had hoped or thought, if you are long, so what?
