You did not need a crystal ball to collect your $3. The board were going to sell their shares and yours for $3 which means they saw it as an above market offer. If ALB decided to go ahead you still would have received $3 for your share, that's it, no more upside! The ONLY other decision ALB could make is to pull out, which they did. Why would you take that risk? You should have been like the BOD and been grateful. Instead you are going to be left with carnage, at least for the next 6 to 12 months. If you had taken the $3 you would have made a lot of $$$$$ and have the potential to go again sub $2 and make another lot of $$$$$$ over time.

not a wise way to invest in my opinion.
