People have been screaming revenue growth for 2 years. When their business model is such that profit is not obtainable then revenue doesn't mean squat.

"Annual numbers speak for themselves. $1M, $4M, $20M, $65M+. Any questions?"

No questions here. You've enlightened me with your investment insight. Revenue is the only metric that should be used when deciding which stock to purchase.

Just on the top of my head.

General Motors. Over $100 billion in revenue. Bankrupt. Government bailout. Common shareholders lost almost everything.

Chrysler. Over $50 billion in revenue. Bankrupt. Fiat bought them out. Common shareholders lost almost everything.

A123 Systems. $130 in revenue. Bankrupt. Common shareholders lost almost everything.

Solyndra. Over $100 million in revenue. Bankrupt. Common shareholders lost everything.

Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Goldman Sachs, BoA. Each had $500 billion in assets and over $100 billion in revenues. Bankrupt. Government bailouts.

If a product costs $5 to make and I sell it for $1, how much money do I make on each one? If I haven't grasped this concept after four years in business, what makes you think I will in the 5th year?

Anyone can issue a series of borderline fraudulent press releases to string along investors, take the money, lavish it on themselves and athletes, and put on a facet that they have a successful business when the opposite is true.

What MP has is a successful brand, not a sound business model. Kodak, Polaroid, Hostess, all had successful brands and hundreds of million in revenue but all went bankrupt.

As long as Musclehead Brad, Convicted Criminal Jeremy, Gangsta wanna-be Corey, and Mr. Bluher the Obfucator are at the helm, we can expect the same old, same old.

Sure we may see a spike in the share price due to irrational optimism. But then it's going come right back down to reflect the fundamentals of the company.
