Kidd - I know your tongue is firmly in cheek but you are kind of making my point for me. The preoccupation with the share price is behind the majority of the angst here. All the positives that are happening with the company - and there are MANY - are being overlooked in favor of an almost constant din of negativity because of a need to equate the daily share price with one's "feelings" about the company.
Here's the simplistic mindset- SHARE PRICE LOW - ME MAD, ME GRIPE. C'mon folks! Get a clue! Some of the greatest investment strategists state very simply to ignore the short term and medium term share price swings in favor of the core fundamentals of a company. I'll side with them and dismiss the pessimism and the subtle and outright bashing that is all around us based on today's share price. The potential with PTSC is excellent for a bottom and a turnaround soon - much greater than the broader market and "blue chips" etc
Also-I wonder if all of the people who are suggesting insiders are not buying in sufficient quantities to meet their expectations are themselves buyers in large quantities at these levels. I mean if it is a "buy" for them it surely should be a "buy" for we retail shareholders who can more nimbly get in and out of a position than an insider.
I think it absurd that there are people who claim to be longs who almost constantly stand in judgment of others - some of these same people have taken profits along the way by selling hundreds of thousands of shares I might add- It is as if the share price does not behave exactly as they wish it to behave in their own timeframes they throw impatient tantrums and come down on others for wearing rose colored glasses and blowing sunshine into their investments etc.. I would ask these people what are or what were their timeframes? Did they expect a 1000% return in one year? Two years? Five years? What was the expectation of an investment that is currently on the OTC BB (which is pretty accurately characterized as the wild west of exchanges)?
Others choose to see this as a buying opportunity and who don't constantly rank on their own investment in one manner or another. How did this become aberrant investment behavior ?
People need to see this for what it is- a buying opportunity at these levels. It's put up AND shut up time!
