One could argue that we may experience the flip side. In the 90's money was being paid hand over fist for companies that weren't necessarily worth what was paid. Conversely over the last while companies have been taken for pennies of their worth and a market of fear was getting used to grabbing what it could get fast, for fear of losing any gains. What a company fetches is more complicated than simply punching in numbers for theoretic values in the moment. There are a lot of forces at work under the surface securing their own interests via any means at their disposal. I would agree that a bidding frenzy would be the most powerful mechanism for achieving a hefty price, however..... yes, this is new to everyone....that's why we're sitting at $2. Notice that no one is dropping big bucks to buy this stock for fear of missing the train. With all that is known about this stock and graphite as we understand, why isn't there a lineup driving the sp up? Why isn't everyone fearful of missing the rocket? I find it interesting being pinned at $2+ or -. It would be amusing to see a bid at $3. That's a whole 50% premium. But lets take it to $6 for a 300% premium. When did you last see a 300% premium? That would be a handsome reward by any standards and a new high would it not. Ah yes....the bidding war. Personally I figure we'll do better than six but beyond that I see a smaller bid just as likely as a larger one. Who can tell what other interests may occupy the imaginations of the various suitors including their concerns about the economy or other opportunities. I like the idea of big bucks for my shares but I also have to look at all potentials in order to make the best decisions. I already know from the hype of what investors want to believe what the high expectations are. I would also like to keep a balance to stay grounded and therefore also consider other possibilities. Graphite is just one tiny little element in the market. It might be the center of some people's world but there is a world beyond it that occupies most of where everyone else is.
