VSIO...I'm concerned about earnings to be announced 1/20.

I got burned by buying AMD on a compelling chart just before their earnings...and it turned into a short candidate overnight. Ouch.

Could be a winner...but how does the group view the "unkown" of scheduled earnings? Great way to throw a wrench into a chart. If the breakout is primarily earnings speculation, and it can be caught a few days before (too late for VSIO), fine....but to buy on the day of the release just seems like "release roulette".

Thoughts?
