Re : "quiet period" -- here is my post from (guess when ?) one quarter ago, when some Wall Street firm was releasing inflammatory, unsubstantiated "research" pieces during Qualcomm's "quiet period."

(And -- the post was to carranza2 that time, also !)

Re : "the downgrade is made just a few days before earnings figures are released."

Just to make this real clear for people who may not be absolutely sure of the significance of this (including me ...)

I keep hearing talk of the so-called "quiet period."

Is this an S.E.C. thing, or a Wall Street "old boys club" thing ?

If it is an S.E.C. thing -- it is (of course) ridiculous that there is not also a "quiet period" for analysts regarding
releasing inflammatory, unsubstantiated "research" pieces during this same time period.

Please tell me (us) the details ...

Jon.
