While no one likes to see a shave like we took today, in the longer run, technically this will make for a healthier stock.

We had hoped that an announcement was forthcoming. Maybe it is, maybe it isn't. Two factors led to the retracement today:

1.) Chart breakdown. The past couple of days have broken support levels, but the stock was held up in anticipation of the conference call.

2.) No announcement. Many bought or held waiting/hoping that a tier 1 announcement would be made in conjunction with the CC.

When there was no announcement, the stock started to slide. We had held at 7 1/4 the last couple of tests. It broke that and proceeded to the 50-day moving average.

As someone else posted, couldn't think of a better way to get new investors in :)

As Ed posted, this was a healthy correction filling in some of the gaps that we missed on the way up. Is it over? I can't answer that. But I do like that it has backed and filled (my pocket book doesn't) In the longer term, this will take out some of the concern going forward.
