OT- I hope this doesn't offend anyone.... Ghandi as you know, walked barefoot most of the time, and produced an impressive set of calluses on his feet. He also ate very little, of which made him very frail and with his odd diet, he suffered with bad breath. This made Him what? A super callused fragile mystic plagued with halitosis. Carl

Actually I have been watching this pattern of opening strong then selling off for a few days prior to the big sell off. If you noticed the volume went from about one hundred thousand to over two hundred thousand. I thought at the time it was just "nut" selling but now maybe..... Too bad..... I believe that this news might have brought us to six otherwise......<sigh>......It's all about supply and demand I guess.. pez

Well when you have a huge position to sell and its more than trades in a day you have a real challenge. They could try to cross a block. Failing that, they can dump it for whatever they get. Or they can trickle it out over days and weeks. If it were me, I'd trickle it out, but sometimes it seems like the street answer is to hit the market over the head with a sledgehammer. If Credit Suisse is still selling, at least they are allowing it to rise and trickling the shares out, a more reasonable approach if you ask me. Carl
