[[tagnumber 0]]T[[tagnumber 1]]he start of the year was rather disappointing for Windstream Technolog (OTCMKTS:WSTI) and its shareholders, but things took a turn for the better in the beginning of April. Unfortunately, the upward momentum was short–lived and we saw [[tagnumber 2]]WSTI[[tagnumber 3]] crashing back down again.[[tagnumber 4]] [[tagnumber 0]] [[tagnumber 4]] [[tagnumber 0]]And while the ticker keeps sliding its market value has dropped below $1 million more recently. This is rather strange, considering that the company is generating decent revenues, although it is still not in a very good financial shape.
