Is Our Stock a Good Buy?

A Mr. B wrote to ask something along the lines of "Is your company on the up and up?", and, "Is your stock a good buy?". Our strict policy is to not comment directly to individual shareholders -- and to have all commuications public and transparent.

As to the first question, we are a company doing real things and growing rapidly.
Internet searches on google.com and yahoo.com can also help individuals find bits and pieces of information that can help form a total picture of a company.

As to whether or not the stock is a good buy... wewell, there are no guarantees of anything in life... especially not the price of a Company's shares on a listed exchange. All we can do is try to do a good job as a company, publish information to inform others of what we are doing, and hope that the marketplace will reward us with a higher share price.

If I were a shareholder in a company "X", and believed in that company, I would probably want to spend time telling others about it. I guess that is what the online stock chat boards are for, and seem to work well as information clearing houses. But as a Company, it is our policy to not discuss the share price.

Quiet on the Outside - But not on the Inside

Quiet day in the market in re: share volume today... but it's sure not quiet on the inside, here at the office. So much going on, including developing a strategy to increase capacity for voice traffic, hire new people, work on completing new contracts. Gearing up to test new voice traffic routes to Vietnam and Guatemala.
Some seem to think we must be tired of the 12+ hour days while we ramp up to a new level. But what they don't know is that all this activity is actually exciting!
I have been through this before, starting with as few as one employee and growing to over 50, and more. We're not bored here, that's for sure. And, who would want to work for a boring company anyway!
So, the market may be "quiet", but it sure is "noisy" here in the offices!

Insider Information being handed out?

At a recent trade show, a VC (venture capital guy) asked me if I could share any insider information on YIWA. I made a quizzical face and asked "How do you mean?". He quickly said,
"Oh, I don't mean anything illegal, but rather, how do you see the prospects for Company growth in the next six months?"

This type of question is not uncommon, and, is one of the reasons for this blog, and for issuing formal press releases to the public, and, another good reason to have a website. Why? Because it's not legal, nor would it be fair, for an insider in a publicly-traded company to tell one person some information that others haven't been told about - whether the news is good, or is bad.

You wouldn't want that to happen either, would you? After all, if there was going to be some great news released soon, you wouldn't want others to be able to buy the stock at a low price, then sell it when others (you for example) found out, and the stock had already shot up. So, the idea behind the law is that everyone is to be informed equally, no matter if the news is good, or bad.

The key for any investor is to be informed, and to follow the news on any company, such as ours. And, search for news about the industry, such as our industry in the VoIP telecommunications field. All of us at the company are excited to be involved in such an exploding field, and we have a huge amount of confidence in our success trajectory. But don't take our word for it... do your homework. Read new and old press releases, search out news, chat with others on investment stock boards and share information. But, sorry, we insiders can't give you "secret, inside information".... you will all hear about any news at the same time. That makes it fair for everyone. As an investor in any public stock, I would keep my ears and eyes open for any good news, and try to invest ahead of the others. Sort of like the old adage of an investor's secret strategy: "Buy low. Sell high." Now, how's that for inside information!

Website Crash

Quite the day, yesterday. We had so many visitors to the http://www.usnationaltelecom.com/ web page, that the pre-assigned bandwidth was exceeded, and the website sort of "crashed". Well, not really crashed, but hundreds of visitors were only greeted with the message "Bandwidth exceeded". We've removed the bandwidth limitation and are now ready for the thousands of visitors who are following the stock and want to get more information on the web page. (Who knew we'd be so popular!)
