rainman, I was hoping nobody would come up with that "you only lose when you sell" line to MEO holders today- ouch. Yep, only down on paper, for sure! I don;t hold MEO hich is surprising, brcause that is the kind of share I usually have.
Risk (for the pennies, at least) is gone, it seems. I remember the days when one could buy a penny stock and there would be loads of people playing there- lots of shell play, etc- no more. :( There was also a guy who used to buy up all the .001 stocks- can't remember his name, but he used to come up in lots of substantial holder notices for the .001 shares. He's probably broke now.
