RE:RE:This is pretty ridiculousThe news of doubling staff is a mixed bag.
In the short term (ie. next couple of quarters), the increased staffing levels could cause margins and profits to decrease for several reasons. Incremental sales could lag the additional staffing costs (timing issue). If increased production needs a ramp up or if there are issues with the new manufacturing process that results in damaged or poor quality products (until the bugs are worked out) could also result in decreased profits and margins in the short term.
Ultimately, in the long run, it is good news with the increased staffing and the new plant opening as revenues and profits will increase but I think today's decline is due to short term investors.
I'm in it for the long run (next few years probably) so these daily fluctuations don't bother me.
