Hello Orion, If you feel GMST is a Gorilla, you shouldn't worry about "timing" your purchase. I got out when the TVguide purchase was announced pending further clarification as to how the acquisition would affect GMST in the intermediate term....The picture is still a bit fuzzy to me. Part of the reason I want to see higher volume on this stock is that increased volume, imo, reflects an "affirmation" by WS as to how the buyout is perceived. TVGuide is a strange duck to me, and I feel that GMST will probably sell or spin off certain parts of the company that could potentially be a drag on earnings. So I'm still a little in the "wait and see" camp, but if it breaks out, I will probably stake out a position again <g>. bp
