I believe the drop in price from FM's new high came from momentum investors who piled on in the days before the earnings release. Make a quick buck and get back out just in case the report is negative. This has been a pattern in the past. However, I don't think it will continue with numbers like this. I'm optimistic because historically, FM's best quarters are the spring and summer ones that are coming up.

I can't imagine anyone would focus on the drop in their distribution sales, since they were such low margin and don't have much of an impact on earnings. What do you think? I sure wish FM had the sales increase to match its nice jump in earnings.

Can't attend the annual meeting, but I'd love to get a firsthand report from you.

Regards,
D. Kuspa
