RE:RE:For a careful unified responsei have to lean with Quakes here, all our arguments as to why this deal is unsatisfactory are completely valid, but i'm afrad they can be argued with points just as valid, ie; with language referring to market conditions, lack of outside interest, sector fundamentals, or any number of defenses that dont require a degree in finance law to apply.. And unfortunately, regulators cannot judge on opinion, nor can they condemn anyone for changing their opinion, even CEO's, (if in fact his opinion has changed). And as for analysts, isn't that why they include disclaimers..?.. But i do think it might be helpful to make our views known at least to Dev, that is, if an explination is not forth comming in due course.. He may make the same arguments as above, say that "due to such and such, our view has shifted to where this is in the best interest of our share holders", and unless the numbers have been lying, no regulator can tell him he's full of it.. furthermore, i don't see "the hundreds of voices", that Uranimom referred to, other than one somewhat confused analyst, i see 20 or so of the same posters here, and half of which, judging from their posts, don't even own any shares.. can someone show me some outrage other than 30 something million shares traded in a down trend in 7 days?..a down trend, which by the way many posters had been forcasting long before the news, maybe not with this volume, but down none the less... my guess is that they're the same 30 million shares that traded last january in an up trend, most of which i bet never heard of PLS, cuz they're robots...
so for us non robots, the ones with brains, i say wait and see before jumping to conclusions, or sell and move on...
