I have been trying to express that shareholder sentiment matters. If you read the other boards and twitter you can see it"s at an all time low. Not sure how many people on the private board ever venture out and read the other ones but I assume not too many. I believe most insulate themselves from the frustrations (interpreted as whining) of the average shareholder or other big shareholders that didn't make it to that board.
Expressing real concern about shareholder sentiment and trying to figure out how it got there and if there is a way to turn it around is called problem solving, but nonethless not anything many die hard longs are willing to entertain even discussing that as it seen as being negative. Not everyone invested in this stock is a genuis or knows all the ins and outs of biotechs, but they are intelligent and want the company and their investment to do well.
I also expressed if sentiment was starting to change from people like me and other longs on the private board that was a sign there was a broader problem (with sentiment). I got my hand slapped for that.
The average investor doesnt have access to or know how to access all the scientific papers articles that excite some longs. They see:
They are down up to 80-90%
They haven't heard from Gerald since the rs.
They are being asked to vote for more shares (more dilution). Nothing has been put out to effectively explain the need for these new shares that has peole clamoring to vote for them.
Proxies were sent at the 11th hour (interpereted as our vote must not really matter). No apology or explanation from the company on why they were sent late.
Gerald sends a tweet out as shares are obviously being manipulated down and after a year of dilution that the sp is the fault of the shareholders. Whether he meant that or not it was how it was interpreted.
Majority of shareholders were not able to take off work and fly to New York for shareholder meeting so they in the dark to what was discussed there.
You can argue all day long that these things don't matter because the science is good, but they do. Who's responsibility is it to remedy that? The shareholders? They feel frustrated and helpless. It's Geralds. He needs to speak to his shareholders right now and explain some things to those that were not at the shareholders meeting.
