the good:

1 - listened to the conference call. very impressed with Shaw. he is the real thing in my estimation.

2 - no more acquisitions until at least 4th quarter according to Shaw.

3 - business is strong.

the bad:

1 - 85 damn million shares used to calculate fully diluted earnings last quarter. too damn many shares outstanding. too damn many insider options outstanding.

and the ugly:

1 - the stock market today.

and the mysterious:

1 - Shaws reference to a strategic partnership. Who and how important ? only time will tell.

cheers. rick.

still holding shares bought at 21 a few weeks ago, but not at all pleased with the post earnings slide.

Alok, I still have my long term confidence on USWB and I have added
on more today. But this stock really has been weak for a while. It
is either the general market condition or lack of recognition on the
street that causes the stock to go down. But long term this stock
should rise as the earnings grow unless USWB is losing marketshare
to other big guys in the future. Thanks for the comments.

Regards,

Eric
