8th if december I emailed asking would we get an update on sales to stop the bleeding the response was “ no we are now in blackout so close to quarter end .Still most of December to go but Q2 will show good growth “
I don’t expect management. to give too much away but I would regard this as positive or else they are full of s**t
So if they are telling the truth then this is an upgrade or else they were telling porkies ,
Just on that note would management be allowed to say wether sales were good or bad ??
