Things look pretty damn grim in Germany this AM. Volume up too. I am not one to claim manipulation at every turn but we are ripe for it now and forces seem to be exploiting it. The company needs to defend it`s shares. Certainly S&L are best served by share price stability from here on out. I have felt/feared that as the real value of the Moore Portfolio became evident that powerful forces(ie hedge funds) might manipulate share price. I don`t think this decline started as manipulation but manipulation has certainly started. On the positive side there is every reason to believe we will get a much clearer picture with accompanying news re Casio, Fujitsu, snd possibly new contracts by the time of the SHM. We will get Pohl`s view for the future. Probably Turley will have visionary comments. The SHM should be a celebration, not a wake. My biggest concern news wise is that the proxy may contain something objectionable to the shareholders. To this point, all the news from the company has been positive and emphasized the company`s commitment to shareholders. As a psychologist, I am keenly aware that our perceptions(our subjective reality) are distorted by our fears and insecurities. Our subjective reality(from whence come our emotions) and the objective reality are often at variance. To calm our fears we have to ask ourselves, ``What is the objective evidence for what I fear?`` Many are conjuring up frightening scenarios without objective evidence to support it just like others created illusions based on Intelsys and Inflame. Calming words from Pohl would help here.
