nobody out there has answered my question about earnings ... is there
any rational basis for thinking that earnings will exceed 8 to 10 cents
per share? also, can anybody offer a decent answer as to why this
stock sells so high? why, in the face of 8 cents per share earnings
last quarter, an all-time high, is the stock selling for $61.50/share?
but given it's trading history, and that the 52 week low is about 38 or
so, why would earnings at the same 8 to 10 cents per share drive the
price down? i guess the bottom line question is this ... is there anything
whatsoever that's rational about this stock? sure it may drop to 50 or
40 or even 10 tomorrow; but given the irrational nature of this stock,
is it just as likely to go up to 75 or 85 by week's end? I mean, who can
explain that it's at 61 after all that's happened over the past 6 weeks?
