Joe,

Yes today's surprise was the ammount of the price run, and not the direction. As for the big guys letting it retrace to $35 or $34, I really don't need the worry for $2 in share price, when I know it's going to be over 40 in a couple of weeks. Remember my real base is at $23 and $4K on that is only a very small percentage gain.

I'm just not comfortable trading COMS at this juncture. I think a lot of institutions are going to start piling on. The evidence is things like "COMS TOP NETWORKING PICK". I expect many upgrades in the next little while, earnings estimate revisions (upwards), a preannouncement. With all this going wrong I would rather lose $2 a share by being conservative than missing out on a 4-5 point a share rally.

Steve
