You sure ask a lotta questions. Do a lot of the cut and past too, huh? Any thoughts from yourself?

“former parties”, as in ‘former and latter' in the preceding paragraph; i.e., “brokers, lawyers, maybe insiders”.

Sure the numbers were bad. Foreign exposure sucked, which whacked their net. Yes, a strength turned to a weakness. Are you defending folks who were too blind to see that the rest of the world's economies were dragging on domestic business? Blind enough not to have seen it the last 2-3 years? Blind enough to have to let the company point it out for them? ½ dozen blind analysts?

Foreign weakness is nobody's fault. But who cares? What's the point? Does that change the fact that there is still a lucrative growing market abroad? Does it change the fact that CELL, et. al., are expanding in those markets? It prob'ly comes down to how long your investment holding time is. Nobody lost money unless they sold.

You're missing my point. CELL is growing their business. The market and it's components (investors, analysts, brokers, etc) grew the price. CELL isn't responsible for the price, the market is. CELL is not responsible for your investment, nor the diligence involved in making an intelligent decision, you are.
