The market equivalent to that anecdote would be a seller who relentlessly pounds the bid on a particular stock. When the seller is prepared to unload a good company's stock for a mere penny a share, buyers of that stock may also experience relief once the selling dries up.  On the face of it, investors should be annoyed at the recent progress of ThinkPath's (THTHF) share price. That said, the decline is the result of a large holder of shares who, earlier this year decided to liquidate his/her position, apparently at any price. The sell volume has been substantial and by extension there has been an attendant price drop.  The ironic thing is that the company itself is doing quite well and appears in no danger of disappearing. Prior to this sell program, ThinkPath shares were trading in a range of 4 to 7 cents.  Granted, ThinkPath has a lot of shares outstanding-around 130 million-but the value seems significantly higher than where the shares find themselves now.  At a cent a share, fully diluted, this is still only represents a $1.3 million market cap on a company doing annual sales of about $25 million. Speculative opportunity? It would seem so. Risk doesn't get much less than a penny a share. The end is not nigh ThinkPath, a global provider of technological solutions and services in engineering knowledge management, has a current market cap of $1.3 million. The 2002 fiscal year-end will be out in a couple of weeks, with the first quarter 2003 numbers to follow a fortnight or so later. The salient points for investors are as follows: · Over $8 million in contracts secured in the last six months. · Monthly burn rate-at $70,000-- is less than half of the monthly average during 2002. · The company expects to be cash flow positive by the end of the third quarter, 2003. · The Executive team is foregoing remuneration during this period of consolidation. · Bank indebtedness is currently $1.6 million, less than half of that noted during fiscal 2002. · The company has clients in the diversified verticals of aerospace, automotive, manufacturing and health care industries. · Deepening relationships and exploring new business opportunities with existing clients such as General Dynamics and others. In for a penny, in for a penny.... While the current environment is challenging for all companies, it appears that ThinkPath's size, and the presence of a large seller has worked in tandem to tank the shares. The reality is that the company, while speculative, has a real business and revenues, real clients and significant prospects for growth. For those investors who wish to participate in a growing knowledge management concern, we believe that ThinkPath shares --trading at 1 cent-- offer a compelling opportunity. Once the selling has diminished, we look for a return to the previous trading range-and hopefully above-and see the shares exhibit more balanced trading activity.
