- What is disrespectfull is issuing not so great news after hours. Why not during trading hours?

Sparkdog, I believe Friday after close "WAS' the best time for that particular NR. Had it been released during the week, there would have been a much larger knee jerk reaction and the SP likely would have lost double what it did.

I believe management likely took this into consideration and decided Friday after close was the best option. Simple reasoning really, it gave share holders the entire weekend to really digest the information and make some sense of it before doing anything they may regret.

The only thing that may have made it better, is if they had released it the previous Friday but that's all hearsay now.
