I get the same feeling I used to with my taciturn young teenagers, who didn’t want to know me or communicate until they needed money. Fortunately as they matured they realised that successful relationships can’t work like that and developed an appreciation of mutual respect. Most companies, when their SP hits a 2 year low, would at least arrange a “state of play” webinar to put shareholders a little in the picture - not something condescendingly called “Meet the Managers” or a little promo session about what wonderful brains they rub shoulders with. Just a candid “this is what we’re up to”, for loyal shareholders. There must be something they can share with us about what sort of timeframe they’re hoping for such news by, even if they’re now shrouded in DoD secrecy.
