I was shocked to notice when I checked in on one of my favorite all time investments that lawyers are looking for a lead plaintiff for a class action suit. Is nothing sacred? Now I know there are times when CEO's run companies into the ground or give out false information to shareholders. We do need lawyers to go after these bankrupt companies.

The share price IMMEDIATELY dropped 25% and analysts immediately lowered their ratings. [more]

I wrote a lengthy pitch today (par for the course for me) on a company that briefly popped onto the top five loser board today. It ssems the armour was pierced on this little company after an equity offering. Having so much fun on the boards with one of our favorites Modovox.OB, I thought I'd toss up VirnetX Holding Corp (VHC) for a wider review...... [more]
