Watch CNBC tonight at 6:30 PM. They are doing a piece on Pokemon during Business Center. They always have the little inticements like some investors are mad and other's or happy but they did say money is pouring in from the movie. Thus regardless of what critics are saying about the movie good or bad, it appears the kids must be going to see it and that is all that really matters.

FWIW

added 200 at just under 77. It is definitely a hold for me through the next couple of quarters. I have some shares which I trade and some of my real cheap ones that I just hold. I'm up about $45 K on this one this year. I think that it is a great trading stock, as it is certainly subject to crazy moves in both directions. Hot and cold, weak hands give it some nice moves. But I do think the Pokemon thing will be pretty long lived. I can't disagree that there is a lot of money to be made with short-term shorts on it, I've even considered it a couple of times myself. I just think that the 6-12 month outlook will show a lot more enthusiasm for the upside. Not giving any 5-10 year projections though, by any means. Bet we see 100's before we see the 50's.
