Bruce, why won't folks "buy on the rumor, sell on the news?"

This old saw has a lot of truth to it, much to my amazement. I can't figure out why anyone would sell when the rumor is confirmed, but that is what usually happens, unless expectations are shattered.

Perhaps that is the mechanism- expectations rise faster than reality.

I am feeling that some kind of correction would be normal. Many people are looking at a very quick double and more- and can be expected to take some profits.

I still think any time a stock outruns it's top call strike price, it will take off. We are within striking range, again.

Up or down- I don't think we will just sit at $14.

(but then, anything can happen. That's why I have some shares just tucked away in a drawer. I am usually wrong.)
