So, ladies and gentlemen, place your bets. Will MU
be going up or down on Tues week?
Will it go down as it SHOULD have in Dec, or up, as it DID?
Long, short, calls, puts, straddle (moved 2+ on 13 of 13 times)?
Whatever I do, I'm not telling until after my bets made.
You have 6 trading days to make your decision.
