RE:RE:RE:Takeover or material news release for MPV.

RE:RE:RE:Takeover or material news release for MPV. Why bother doing an analyst site visit in March and presenting at various conferences coming up if they want to go private? On the other hand going private makes sense if they don't plan on doing any thing else other than clipping dividends. Why stay public for that? Unless TIGS want to use the public stock for financing or for area consolidation play, this baby has good odds of a privitization. They have stated publicly before that there is no need for more financing and that they have no interest in mergers and acquisitions. Thus, High odds for going private. So MPV may be going through the motions of appearing to promote itself but in reality preparing for a privitization. The purchase of the Kobex block of 1MM shares by Blackrock l started this recent rally off the lows. Blackrock now owns 8.7%. The removal from the slide deck of the major shareholders is significant, not trivial, because there is a reason for it. If the removal if that slide was just to update the slide then it would have already been replaced. Some upside here but probably not too much more as any privitization price will be a measured percentage over avg trading price of 30-45 days or so. Maybe a 30% premium or so. Removing the slide would be necessary perhaps because some of the holdings may be shifting and consolidating? That's just speculation for now. But odds are this stock won't live publicly to see the light of commercial production.
