    Well ,just missed the .15 cent close. At least it closed positive, thats better than the other way. Any volume this thing wont stay down. Patience is once again in order, as usual.

    What a crazy ass manipulated stock. If they keep holding it back, why do they make it jump so much on the last trade of the day.

    This is much better than what has been happening in the past. The used to kill it on the last trade.

    This is unrelated to SIRI, sorry in advance. Does anyone follow CPST (Capstone Microturbines)? They seem poised to benefit from Obama's clean energy mentality, and the stock is ridiculously low right now. I know they have issues with profitability, but I'm quite used to that with SIRI by now...!

    I know we are all waiting for that big pop but how far did that get us the last few times it went above .20? Could be this is a positive sign-closed up even a little on a generally down market day?

    The shorts must be getting a little more nervous as the days go by so we weed more of them out. It's normal to be eager. After the storms we just weathered it will take a bit for the waters to calm enough for others to want to swim in our ocean.

    Relmor has the right idea-patience. Think in terms of how we finish a week, not just a day.

    Yup! I own it!

    Bought it too high, looks like.

    I'm with ya, this company is a prime buyout candidate. It's primary problem is that it can't get out of it's own way.

    I think the management is OK, but they are having severe growing pains.

    They have this huge backlog of orders but by the time they get them out the shipping door, the materials costs have eaten into their margins. They need to get that under control, and have done some things to do that but it did not show up in the numbers yet. I can only hope they succeed or someone like Honeywell or GE snaps them up.

    I think they would have been snapped up if it was not for the credit crunch.

    I'm not sure where that .1495 trade to close came from. All the bids were much lower, unless it was a big buy and it pushed it up for that last trade. It didn't seem like there was any buying demand above .1425, but I'll take a positive close and a bad day in the market.

    Relmor is absolutely right. I would Tattoo the word on both hands and my forehead if I thought it would help!

    Weeding out the shorts?

    Really - ok - someone explain to me in something besides a wild guess

    How am I - your typical consumer investor - supposed to believe the shorts are out of the picture? As far as I can tell - we're still being manipulated - G.S. is still in the picture - we got the same 100 blocks today from nite trading group...

    Someone explain please what has actually CHANGED SIGNIFICANTLY.....

    I'm starting to understand why insane people lick walls and beat their head against things...

    You are absolutely right, we have to be patient. Bought another 10k at .145 .
    Then I saw another Motley Fool article and wanted to open a vein.
    Why are these people doing this ? What is there goal ?
    One lousy sentence about the done deal, then hammering about 15 % interest the company will never able to earn, 25mil. principal each month, most of the loan must be paid back 09 and 10 and not forget about the FACT that the consumer very soon will cancel any sub, because there is the free internet radio.
    I am sorry guys, I know we went through this before, but it still drags you down, again and again.
    I would appreciate if anybody has something positive to say regarding that MF-article.

    As to those 100 blks......


    I can't say exactly what they are, but most probably they are options that are clearing. options are bought in 100 share blocks and when a put or a call clears or is exercised, the trade looks like a thousand killer bees cruising through the last sale chart.
