is it possible a JDSU short squeeze will take it past gap down of $85?
That plus

-abscence of sellers
-Institutional buying
-mo mo crowd flocking back to Vegas....


TA, I would say that it is just not short covering; many of short sellers are probably going long too as they see a big change in the market.
The reasons you cited: absence of sellers, institutional buyers, Vegas crowd back in.
These are very valid.

There is also this fear of missing the rally after having suffered the declines--that is a painful thought for most and that is why investors are dumping money into aggressive growth fund again. (like I stated before---Janus is back!)

The earnings reports in high growth tech stocks are excellent and so is the guidance.
Anyone catch the way BRCM shot up to 141 after confirming guidance; not only that PMCS (which was weak today), gained $5 around the same time.

I thought PMCS's weakness today was signalling a downgrade tomorrow. However, now I believe it won't matter as investors try to pick up those stocks that lagged today. PMCS reports Thursday along with JDSU and I would expect both to gain big ahead of the report.

I don't have a price target but 85 is within range on JDSU in the coming 3 days, IMHO.

Good Luck.
