Michael--In tonight's interview, Dr. J tacitly accepted the interviewer, Stephanie Woods, assertion of a 30% future growth rate by not rising to the bait. Personally, I don't buy 30% at all--I like 40% to 45%. Question is, will the interview impact tomorrows stock price positively or nagatively. You say, who cares--right. Well, I had a round with Schwab today and didn't make a trade. I dropped off a check at the local office, went home and tried to buy a ZLUAA leap. So, I get a cryptic message about this not being a ligitimate symbol. Then I called my friendly (10 minute wait) Schwab 800 No. and finally got through to Mr. Roman (SP?) who said that it takes 7 days to get collected funds which are required to buy options. So I hustled down to the bank, got a cashier's check, and traded out checks with the pretty lady at Schwab. Again I tried to trade. Same cryptic message. Back to the 800 No. The next guy checked further and informed me that in their system ZLUAA was a Fidelity Select Automotive Contract. However, ZLUAB and ZLUAT were good Q options. By then it was past 4pm & I never turned in my order. No, said the broker, he couldn't make it good. If Q jumps up tomorrow, I'm PISSED!! I wonder if Chuck and Hellen know what goes on in their company.
