I got back in a few days ago when it appeared they have stop diluting for the present.
This does not mean they will not pick up the dilution machine again.
I am watching the numbers and i will abandon the ship in a hurry if it looks like us investors are the bank again.
I have never understood what retiring shares does when the company continues to sell shares it just means the OS gets closer to the AS and we all know what that means in pinkie land.
Still hope she runs good and it has a chance "IF" they quit diluting.

One can only hope the shares being sold are for a better cause then lining a pocket...
The ones that scare me the most are the share counts that have 9 zeros and a big number in front of them...
My broker laughed at me one day from a stock I had years ago, when it traded over 2 billion shares in one day. He said, that was higher than the NYSE total....
I got in at what I think is bottom here, so maybe EXPH will do something to get this moving a little, other than that,,,,it's only beer money....

this from exph so called professional IR co...
Another thing I get sick of hearing is "the company is selling stock". Hey, heres a news flash for you.. company's go public to raise money and that means they sell stock. The idea behind investing is to find a company that is building a solid company and in many cases that means they need to raise money in order to do so.
Just about every company on the NYSE and NASDAQ are selling shares. Ford just announced a 2nd quarter loss of $8B.. yes BILLION dollar loss. How do you think they keep the company afloat with an $8B loss?? They sell stock..

I never trusted supposed IR people, ever since the Lisa Blackstock of Kamloops BC GXXL fame..
Same stuff, maybe worse, and to the point where I actually had a file with the SEC and the FBI regarding that scam.
And not just e-mails, but a few phone calls with the FBI.
Too bad they couldn't handle that one....they said it themselves. So I appearantly these companies can and will scam away at free will....

Sorry to see what happened here guys, the company was solid, but obviously they felt like they should run a printing press. I got out a long time ago for some nice gains, but what a shame this penny game is.

Could run IF they back off on that share selling for awhile but that is old news.
The thing that keeps my running shoes on is that they seem to keep diluting, the AS is 1 billion, OS is suppose to be 503 million with 334 million retired recently. What happens when they make that magic mark of a billion which might be soon?

This one might have a chance now that they have stop diluting for awhile. Just have to see if they keep it that way.
