Rick,

Makes no difference. The speculators are in charge of this market, and some of them (together with some of the "more patient") were hoping for a 114 update.

I haven't followed the Yahoo thread of late, but I wonder just when people there will realize that you can only pump a stock in the short term. Raising expectations by talking about the glorious things to come "real-soon-now" only sets up disappointments when those things don't materialize or do materialize in less glamorous form than promised. The key to long term good stock performance is under-promising and over-delivering. Trying to boost the stock by talking about the glories just-over-the-next-rise makes it that much harder for the company to over-deliver.

Thus we have an excellent earnings report apparently greeted by disappointment.

Unfortunately, we're nearing our third "vacation" period in Europe. Man, seems like they come around every year.

Chuckle - or maybe that should be "Grimace". <g>
