Dunno whom you mean with "he" ... however, if you

Dunno whom you mean with "he" ... however, if you meant Bennie Blankenship - where and when, please, did he say "next year"?
And re. his "advice(s)" ... depends which one you bought, there´re some big and a few bad ones (e. g. ORFG where I lost big because I sold this blatant wimp finally) ... now I´m in FROZ, also down, but hope to get even within next month or so ... LOL anyway, you always will have good or bad ones IMO.
My NTEK-history is bound with Bennie, so to speak, from Dec. 2012 until today ... and I think his role is a serious one resp. he never thought this would get this curious development ... it´s tough to see your previous juicy profits melting down successively during many months and annoying not the have cashed out in time (at 0.15 or so) ... at least a small part of your position.
However, dunno what Bennie did, but it´s possible he still holds his 29M shares ... mainly because he hopes (knows?) we´ll be back there where we were (e. g. in December 2013) resp. will get much higher short to midterm!
