RE:DIAGNOS on Launch Pad - Presents Exceptional Opportunity If you tried the URL I gave for the article on DIAGNOS at C E O . ca it was redirected by stockhouse to its Market Herald website and not the actual article. The only way to get to the article from stockhouse is to cut and paste the URL in a browser. So here is URL if you want to try cut and pasting it https://ceo.ca/@bottomline/diagnosadk-on-launch-pad-presents-exceptional-opportunity
When it was pointed out to me that the URL was being intercepted and redirected we all had a good hardy laugh and interesting conversation around the office at just how far stockhouse has fallen since Hotcopper bought them for $20M in mid-2020. You see Hotcopper is an Australian outfit that has a lock on the Australian markets and thought they could capture the Canadian market by acquiring stockhouse and up-selling clients to its Market Herald... Market Herald you say?, never heard of it, seems xxxx! Oh now now come on don't be so harsh .... they don't understand how things work up here downunder ( downunder where juniors often trade at fractions of a penny and it is not uncommon to have companies with over 1 billion shares outstanding) ... anyways it is safe to say the Hotcopper/stockhouses strategy failed miserably since acquisition. In-fact this is just how bad it things are at stockhouse... 100% of stockhouses contributing columnists pre-acquisition were told to buzz-off upon acquisition unless they pay to be contributing columnists... so a handful did stick around and give it a go, except stockhouse failed to retain its sales team/CSRs and had "F-rated" customer support for many months after the acquisition and soon the few columnists that did stick around found that the stories they were paying for were not even getting published and at least one I know had to sue stockhouse to get their money back. No one renewed after a few months... There is now ZERO contributing columnists!!! and C E O .ca has attracted the majority of message board activity, the Market Herald is a flop, and stockhouse is in full panic mode. So they have resorted to hijacking URLs. Hotcopper has since got sales people back at stockhouse and is focused on monetizing the acquisition, but stockhouse has lost its mojo and is overpriced in the eyes of most people familiar with the sector, the only people that visit stockhouse now are people that don't know about c e o .ca or those that do go to c e o .ca and are curious if there is anything of interest at stockhouse and need confirmation it is still a ghost town. The numbers the sales people are still peddling as visitor traffic are dated (from pre-acquisition time) .... I will leave it at that before someone deletes my ID for exposing too much. So there's that. enjoy the article.
