Any guesses as to what this announcement might entail? I'm still inclined to hold even though it fell 1.5 after this announcement. Before this announcement, it was starting on a recovery - having gained 1.5 the previous day. I still think it has meat. Any forecasts? (Datek's analysis consensus still shows a strong buy)
