Thanks for the post and your perspective. It`s cool to disagree, don`t worry about treading lightly.
I come at it form the perspective of this - what target audience will probably be attending?...will it be the long longs that sat it out for years waiting, or the relative newcomer that doesn`t know the whole story, either rode the wave, or got in at the top and is now lickin wounds?
The more intelligent trader who got in during the wave and made their profit (and ran) are more than likely the daytrader personality, on to the next killing. The one who mistimed and is licking their wounds are probably the joe 6-Paks, smaller holdings.
When I did call Hawk today (spoke w/Ken) I did comment on some of the posts I read that some suggested in their conversations w/Hawk that there would be more information at the meeting for those attending, not enough to give away the house, but some other tidbits (my words).
Ken comented that he didn`t say anything of the sort, and he expected this to be a typical Shareholder meeting, with the standard items shown within the shareholder packet being addressed. He actually said to the contrary, where proof of share owner ship would be required to get in, just to limit the amount of abuse the execs may have to take...
Don`t get me wrong - I`ll be the first to pay for your drink if it works out the other way, and the first to absorb the ``I told you so`s....``
Let see how it plays out. either way, it`ll be fun.
Regards
