RE: Future

RE: FutureI'm not convinced that the market is going to turn south...at least not in the short term...and maybe not even in the medium term unless there is some major uncontrollable event (ie. terror attack, etc).  Naturally, the market cycles so it is certain that it will crash again...some day.  AOS' issue is public relations.  Even if they have to wait for the pilot to be approved, there was and is a lot of PR that should be done in this stage and don't you agree that their real estate alone justifies a much, much higher sp?  I look at AOS' market cap right now and think that its a practical joke...

I too am frustrated by the lack of drive displayed by the management team as a whole in generating excitement and news.  I don't want them to spit out press releases just for the sake of spitting them out, but I'm not seeing much in the way of attracting investors the way large companies do.  I still think AOS has extremely good potential and once approvals and financing are in place, this stock really has no place to go but up.  Any drops now are mainly triggered by low volume and boredom...not by fundamentals.
