Just something to think about:

On Monday, Alcoa (AA) announced very disappointing EPS....They reported 85 cents, and expectations were for $1.06!!! What happened to the stock, you ask? I was down THREE points for the day. THREE POINTS??? THAT'S IT???

Just think about all of the tech stocks which disappoint The Street by only a few cents (INTC, MU, etc.). These stocks got hammered after the "low" (even though EPS growth was tremendous for almost any other company) EPS announcements.

Now, if you want to look at stocks which dissappointed comparably to AA (by more than 20 cents), how about ADBE, CYRX, CRUS, etc. All of these stocks are now more than 50% below their 52-week highs.

This just isn't fair.

PS Don't anyone write any of that "life is not fair" garbage! Also, I don't own any AA.
