<<IMHO ASND will move higher because the price is cheap and it's
fundamentals are improving, while most other stocks are expensive
and their fundamentals are deteriorating.>>

I fully agree. This makes perfect sense. Unfortunately, all the
lemmings move as one, say the same words, etc. - but don't really
SEE. Perception is their reality (maybe that's all reality is?) and
until perception changes (4Q earnings, CC or major new contract),
they will keep spouting the same old BS. Fortunately some on SI do
THEIR OWN research and have the confidence to make up their own minds.

Most of my decisions this year have been right on, except for ASND
and MRVC. MRVC is strictly down on Asia - fundamentals keep getting
better every quarter, so the only thing to do is wait this out (well
not the ONLY thing - I did buy Mar $22.5 calls when it hit
it's low of $21.)

ASND is more complicated and in addition to Asia involves technical
issues with 56K and TNT that noone on the thread could have clearly
forseen, followed by this management lack of trust thing.

The market is like a pendulum that never comes to rest - it always
overreacts one way or another. Right now the pendulum is all the way
left, but starting to swing back and will of course overshoot (can't wait).
