Ann: Top 20 securityholders, page-56

CJ
Does aging from 50 years to 65 years, the time I have been invested in EMS/SUD, qualify for growing up? I'd say I need to wake up not grow up.
You need to realise that it is we "stale old holders" who have supported this company through the ages with CRs, etc to put you in the position that you( and yes, us) are in. ie we are afloat. What have you contributed to the long term? I have contributed to every CR since 2003. And yes, I fronted up to the RI ( not fully, about 80%, I admit). I have forfeited a couple of million options in EMS along the way.
So I think I reject your assertion, which was the thing that got on my goat, that we of the negative have an "agenda"to secure more cheap shares. I don't think any of the mentioned posters have that agenda at all.
As for your other assertion that if we all "be quiet" on HC then the buyers will come- I feel that's a bit naïve. The SP has all to do with performance over the years, for which management are accountable, as I understand it.Do you not agree? And what has the market displayed over the years?- I don't think I need to answer that one.
Now I'm sure that some new holders will be happy with a tripling of the SP. I won't. So we have different perspectives.And that is the market. Don't expect that bullying and browbeating will make any difference one way or the other.
The only hint of success at that was by the Von, now disillusioned and gone, just like so many others.That is their right as well.
Re positive posters- I have great respect for those such as CBD and Kippax - different posters both, and both in this for many years.They just have not proven to be correct, yet. And I will be more than happy when, if, they do prove to be correct.
Now lets all play in the sandpit together and not throw sand in the eyes too much more.
