I hear you Pat, and I know that you have been around the block in this game, with knowledge it will take me a long time to acquire, if ever, about how some of the details relating to so many aspects of evaluating companies, trading rules and regs, etc.
But I wish you had simply given me a heads up on what to ask.
I made it clearer and clearer in progressive posts that if no one was going to pick up the phone, I would. But I'm not going to keep calling and calling any particular company CEO or IR person or whoever. Just like I don't lean on my food customers. When they are ready, they're ready. Some guys in my biz burn out their customers by nagging them to death, and then the customer tells them not to call them any more.
Which is why I have found it so annoying that the bashers keep saying the same things over and over and never really DO anything proactive. That being their only consistent behavior makes it look like they get paid to just question and rag on us to sow uncertainty.
I can be as wrong here as the next person, and have been wrong about things in life, many times. But from my POV HISC is a good bet, and if I could I would 'double down'! LOL!
