I refer to the proposal of whiteshark that we should /could send s.b. to the PIC conference. Recalling the discussion  we have had last year I would suggest to keep it  in the off topic area...... :-)

I would give my contribution if s.b. (Rainer or s.b. else with a similar reputation) would be able and willing to attend -and to report.

I did so last year, and I think that it was a good crowd experience, although we have burned the money

we have seen how they try to kick retail investors out in the last months , so I think it is even more important to create our own information base.....now and in the future

@dash, apart that they are tigers without teeth, I think we should give the supervisory authorities a rest and shouldn't complain. The only thing I would like to see is a positive close today. :-))nice weekend to all longs

The high volume and increase of the shareprice has IMO little or nothing to do with "Tax-loss sellers -are-back again", etc. 

If you compare the first three trading days 2015-2017 you get the following picture

2017: +13.5 cents, close 3rd trading day 0.465, high 2016: 1.40 (close)

2016: -16.0 cents, close 3rd trading day 0.85, high 2015: 1.99(close)

2015: -15.0 cents, close 3rd trading day 1.31, high 2014: 2.77(close)

A tax loss selling would have been interesting in all these years - if you take the year per year highs.

Apart from the fact that that it is a bit early for the majority of tax loss sellers to buy back, there is no correlation at all - if you look at the numbers listed above  - between tax loss selling potential on the one hand and price, volume and performance on the other hand.

Maybe that is wishful thinking but I am convinced that all we have seen this year is "forthcoming news- based". For me personally earlier than expected but if I remember correctly  : January/February traditionally are (POET) news months

If you like to check the numbers, here is the link.....:

no vacancy any longer. the job offer was posted around mid december, that is a record  even for fruit timelines.  VCsel/GaA coordinator found :-)) 

and a great 2017 for all of us

Cheers from Italy

Since this post from Rainer there has been not one single valuable contribution (including this one - I have to admit).

Even the mentioning of a broker  who has bought 70$ of shares (sorry FJ, but this is Kindergarden not only for mazan, but for many investors here on the board) is ridiculous.

Imagine a new potential investor who for the very first time reads the most recent 40 posts on this board. 

It is really great that the company has professionalized the IR/PR - policy.
