Greg,

Your post and mentioned stocks highlight my previous post on keeping this all in perspective. Again, big numbers (+30) seem to impressive people more than percentage moves. Sort of like, "wow, Q is announcing a split, must be a good buy!" or, "I am going to wait and buy Q after it splits, it will be a better deal!" I talk to friends about these comments all the time.

Which one would have you liked to own a bunch of today!?

LWIN: +18%
PHCM: +20%
AGIL: +25%
DIGL: +55%
QCOM: +11%

Not complaining, just mentioning that a 3% move in Q on MON will equal 9 points. Sounds impressive, but not uncommon at all for stocks to move up 3% in a day. It's all relative although I think it is easy to forget this.

Happy Hunting!
