good info Thanku.
Appreciate the info.
when do you foresee Arise making a turnaround in the stock market, and to what extent??
With cash and short term investments of of $651,985 million, why is this stock trading at .17 ??
when is you presception that when APV will make a turnaround in the stock market, and up to what extent? Have a nice day.
How long before APV is a major player in this industry if ever?
I to would be interested to know when you think APV will start to see it's stock price rebound.
With equity financing a necessity .........dilution is a given .
How do they pull ahead with such high current liabilities ?
I guess today's market action answers my question ........20 M shares traded and stock almost tripled ......any idea what short position was on .....if any .
Spectacular move on Arise today up 184.8% to $.47
