Harold S (FGI vs VRC) - Granted I own FGI so you can consider me biased, but short term I think we've seen the downside on FGI. The double bottom should be complete within the next couple days. Breaking the 50 dma again coming off the double bottom will be very positive along with the PR road show. VRC looks like it may need to consolidate further before going substantially higher.

FGI/HLX Following the merger, one can expect a broader customer base, broader product base, new interest from the investment community, a significantly larger company and double or triple average trading volume and much less MM control commensurate with the increased liquidity. Will leave it to Holloway to acclaim the synergies, efficiencies and the like. Its a no-brainer for a double within six months. Many investors (including mutual funds and institutions) will keep their powder dry until they see first and maybe second quarter results following merger (after the price has already doubled).
