OK stock jocke, I have to respond to this one. You say maybe MM's just pumping up price...I say a stock's price is at least to some degree a reflection of the forward looking earnings projections times some multiple. Without getting into the multiple part, if RIO is profitable which I think we all agree it is, then that means higher earnings. Higher earnings justify higher stock price. I would expect a manipulation issue only if there were no increased earnings to explain a run up in price. I don't think that is the case with Diamond right now. They have a respectable graphics card line, a good line of V90 modems (shotgun is a plus), and now the RIO. When you factor in the recent restructuring which means lower overhead costs, why wouldn't this one go up. Maybe I'm missing something but I see this as extremely positive for the stock right now.
