RE: Hot stock=Big Move=Consolidationgbcoish - who is Bert???? You quote me then address "Bert" in response. Sorry I am not him.
While I am not sure whether your question is intended to be rhetorical or not as posed: "My question has to be be, do you think Mr. Grandish, et al, would take a chance of promoting a dead stock, especially since their stature could drop,..."
I will answer it anyway - Mr. Grandich will promote any stock for which he is being paid a fee to do so for, simple as that! As a few posters have correctly pointed out, it is a decent form of publicity, and that is good for us, but my only point is that one should never consider that type of promotional material as being part of any proper DD.
