I thought penny stocks where basically junk stocks, what do you call something a fraction of a penny? An EDMC / Argosy MBA?

Why is it that no one at EDMC seems to know what it means to have a total market capitalization of just one million dollars?
Surely if someone here knows how a stock market works and how to interpret financial data they could say based on the financial data when EDMC will be closing for good? Does anyone here have an MBA?
August 19th meeting

Evidence of Fraud.
To the individuals who think fraud wasn't being committed, these bogus stats go from 1995-2007. I can easily pull up more recent stats from all the AIs. Stop justifying your bullshit... — read more
WHAT'S NEXT, inquiring minds want to know!
How much longer before EDMC shuts all its doors? Teach-outs?
Isn't it amazing how a paycheck can legitimize a job?
Seriously, the high pressure sales combined with management's, "It's all about the students" horseshit has to f--- with your brain. We make our livings by preying on the amount of financial aid some kid or psych patient is eligible for. And those job... — read more

No I Don't Like Your Industry.
"Industry" implies you make or produce something worthwhile." So no, I see your "industry" as a one- source totally government propped-up fraud. Nimble masters of "industry" you are not, never were.

EDMC stock dipped to an all time low, down by 50% to 1 cent.
Congratulations, from 27 dollars to 1 penny, that's not easy to do. I think I have a buck somewhere, maybe I will pick up a hundred shares. Maybe it will be back up to 2 cents by days end. What a roller coaster ride.
Here's an interesting development I can't make heads or tails of. Has the Obama administration turned over a new leaf?

Who can I contact?
