since we're in the mid 20s.. I see limited downside.. we might fall back towards $21... but we can't possibly NOT beat earnings estimates... good grief.. trading volumes have been astronomical... and I doubt they spent their entire revenue stream on marketing... although I'm sure they spent alot.. I think they were STUPID to do the EBAY-share-new-account deal... we shouldn't be buying customers at $150 to $250 a pop... especially IF we're going to spend a huge budget on advertising to go along with that... one or the other.. they could STOP advertising altogether... and offer new customers $300 per NEW ACCOUNT per SS# and spend less money I believe than they are now with all the commercials and sponsorships... but Chris knows what he's doing.. yes, I'll be holding my shares thru earnings jim
