Sorry; one more post on this thread.
When you said "I stopped [reading] after money in the treasury equates to a growing share price. Just not true. It should but it does not always", I got tweaked. The fact that you apparently stopped reading my post wasn't what got me tweaked. It was the premise that money in the treasury doesn't contribute to a growing share price. The disconnect is the recognition of where that money came from - very likely the MMP. What does it mean when the MMP generates money? Doesn't it mean that more money is likely to come from the MMP - alot more money?
Couple that thought with another excerpt from your post: "Because the investor has expectations that the company will and is moving forward. The stock market is built on results and expectations of results and continued results. Money in the bank does not move a share price higher unless an investor sees value." With more money coming from our acknowledged "bread and butter" - the MMP - don't you think the investor community is going to see value in PTSC via the MMP?
Nobody invested in PTSC for the BoD, they invested - and will continue to invest - in PTSC's interests in the MMP. It's all about the MMP.
This is why, FOR EVER, I've posted that the focus of shareholders should be placed squarely on the MMP. That's where this company's future, and the future of our investment lies. And it's where future investors will focus their attention. Everything else is more or less a distraction from where the focus should rightfully be.
BTW, what did the company just tell us about what they're going to do with (the bulk of) future revenues? Do you see risk in share buy-backs?, in issuing dividends? Will those actions demonstrate the future value of PTSC as an investment to the investor community? And golly, this is the BoD's stated intent.
Hope this helps.
