Pleasant surprize or not is not the point and suggesting one sell to relieve frustration is simplistic and shallow. Tell that to activist investors. It's to hold everyone accountable. A strange fiction these days. I'm fine, but not happy with the delay which doesn't mean my only course of action is to dump. It's always something with the delays. If legitimate, then put out a NR and explain. That's the point, they never feel they owe anyone an update or explanation but you can bet certain Brokers seem to know what's going on.
This is not IBM or GE with super-complicated reports. Q4 should be out end of Oct to mid-Nov. IT'S mid-DEC now folks.
And, all the times I've heard board members here or anywhere else try to speculate "silence is golden" or "must be something in the works" or "big news coming", it ends up being a nothing burger.
