Wow super duper trade in 2007, Dew. Kudos. Would you care to share info on some of the post 2007 trades in MNTA you have made? For example, over the last 2-3 years say?
Why are you talking about immediate gratification?
Are you serious? Do you have so little self-understanding that you don't realize the effect of your posts? When you repeatedly post about the likelihood of a positive significant move of the stock price after a possible near-term event, don't you think that you are increasing the expectation of a big price increase soon? And when you post about the the possible value of the company based upon a sum-of-the-parts, that you are establishing expectations that that value will be realized soon? Do you actual read the posts here that worry about the day-to-day price movements from posters who want a big move up soon to match the valuation that they (and I) feel is accuarate?
I have owned stocks of a couple individual companies for over thirty years. I hope to own MNTA for years if not decades. But I understand that we are the exception. Most own it for a trade, not for the long term. That was my point, and I thought it was clear.
