SCO Delisted as of Today
By Anonymous
December 27 2007
I check SCO stock almost every day. The thing I could never understand, with
price hovering as high as $.20, the one year project was $5.00 (Yahoo). Who
makes these forecasts, and how can anyone take them seriously since it was
pretty easy to see that SCO couldn't continue for a year?

I think that we can all agree that this announcement puts an end to the stock
scam portion of the SCO lawsuits. The pump and dump was a big success. Can
anyone give a figure - what was the % increase of SCO stock value from this
March 2003 announcement to the highest stock value. Actually we should go back
to about November of 2002, because by time of the March announcement, all of the
insiders had already been buying stock for months in preparation for the scam.
The FUD machine is not dead. The lawsuits are not over. Specifically, the IBM
lawsuit is not over. There are plenty of MS senior salespeople talking to
CIO's, CTO's, and CEO's of fortune 1000 companies pounding on the fact that
Linux is still under a legal cloud because the IBM suit is on-going. Keep in
mind that for most people who are not following the SCO lawsuits, IBM is the
main show. Novell, like Chrysler, AutoZone and Red Hat, is a side show. We at
Groklaw all know the effect that the Novell rulings have on the IBM lawsuit, but
most people have no idea.

Also, I wonder what is the % loss of a fool who bought SCO at the market high
and is still holding the stock as of today.
There had to have been plenty of fools who thought that SCO was on the gravy
train to collect BILLIONS from IBM, and threw down loads of cash for a stock
that looked like it was going to the moon.

I'm not sure what the actual high was--interestingly the SCOX charts have
disappeared from Yahoo, and Excite, and MSN money seems to have no record
of SCOX whatsoever-- but assuming $20.00 as a "minimum high," the loss is 100-(.12/20)
= -99.4%. Nice going, Darl. Seems like when Darl moved in SCO/Caldera was about
$4.00, which still works out to a drop of -97.0%.
Reminds me of this quote attributed to Euripides:
Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad.

//////////////////////////
I never really quite understood why all these investors, like Credit Suisse
Asset Management, hang on to a subsubsubdollar listed company. Pure speculation,
with _their_ share holder's money?
Back to the subject line question - will these companies remain proportional
owners of what is left? Proportional to their share, that is.

I've come across this many times, but have been unable to find anything like
it
in Euripides. There is a Latin proverb that
is similar, but I don't know its source either.
I have a feeling that this is like the "dwarves on the shoulders of
giants" that Merton had such a good time with
(R.K. Merton, On the shoulders of giants [1965, 1985, 1993]).
