At the risk of being repetitive, I would say that the journalists in this field are useless wannabes, sitting in their underwear in their parents basements, spewing information that is fed to them by the mega, large and mid-cap players.
The information is all there, they just choose to ignore, or discount it entirely.
As angry as it makes me, it doesn't really matter; the only difference is that the stock price would be higher, earlier, if the news had been disseminated already.
Also of note, POET announced in the MD&A that they are discontinuing funding from the SBIR, which was minimal anyway this past year, and are going it alone.
Off the teat, ready to grow up....
