no matter what it does, I have mentioned this before, the guy who owns it is a crook. Check who was the first to default on a bond issue back in the late 90s. :P

I will ask you something. You invested some of your money in his company's stock. Do you know how many vessels the company operates? and if yes in what market? spot or time charter? I know these answers, but do you? cos I was looking at his company's site and couldn t find any info on the fleet etc..... Which i believe they are vital info you should know if you want to invest in a shipping company

nope, can't answer any of those questions... purely a technical setup... hardly an investment. ;) ... if you'd like to share the answers to those questions though, i'd be happy to listen and learn. thanks nic, -TA

my point was that normally shipping companies disclose publicly their fleet, and some of them say if they operate in the spot or time charter market. I had a look at his website and i couldn t find any of those. I ll let you know tonight about his current fleet and if he expects any deliveries.

Thanks nic,
don't spend any time doing research on it if it's only for me, i'm out of the position for now, i do appreceiate it though...

i also will stand behind my projection... technically... that if the $12ish level holds it looks like it's good for $20. good to talk to you. thanks again, -TA
