Maybe it's interesting to see if and if yes, how KT's structure change announcement affects the buying behavior of the buyers.

Please compare the week before the announcement and after. In theory, we should see a buying surge after the Labor Day weekend.

I won't actually vote as my dls waver too much to be meaningful, but as it happens, I've had more dls yesterday and today than any two days last week. DLs very grim Friday - Monday - I checked back and that wasn't noticeable in previous years. But my dls are going down year on year anyway.

I wonder about this because I have been wasting my time reading forums, instead of working. I wonder if the buyers are doing the same.

Probably only those buyers who are also contributers. But yes, I've wasted most of this evening keeping up with the relevant threads here and there.

Maybe I should not have said "waste of time" because we want to be informed and voice our concerns. It's just frustrating that we have to go through this.

WE ARE NOT HELPLESS WE HAVE THE MEDIA

I understand your concern, but spamming in multiple threads won't help anyone. Maybe you should start your own thread, that would be more helpful IMO

Sales were better on a daily basis last week than this one, even accounting for labor day. Not sure if that means much, though, because this week a lot of Americans took vacations.

Two days immediately after the announcement, There were few sales. In the past two days, the sales have gone back to the normal, not spectacular, just normal.
