speaking of gappers(in reverse)..SKI
The web is amazing Screech
"The Screech Story
Long before any liquor board was created to take alcohol under its benevolent wing, Demerara rum was a mainstay of the Newfoundland diet, with salt fish traded to the West Indies in exchange for rum. When the Government took control of the traditional liquor business in the early 20th century, it began selling the rum in an unlabelled bottle. The product might have remained permanently nameless except for the influx of American servicemen to the Island during World War II.

As the story goes, the commanding officer of the original detachment was having his first taste of Newfoundland hospitality and, imitating the custom of his host, downed his drink in one gulp. The American's blood-curdling howl, when he regained his breath, brought the sympathetic and curious from miles around rushing to the house to find out what was going on.

The first to arrive was a garrulous old American sergeant who pounded on the door and demanded, "What the cripes was that ungodly screech?"

The taciturn Newfoundlander who had answered the door replied simply, "The Screech? ‘Tis the rum, me son."

Thus was born a legend. As word of the incident spread, the soldiers, determined to try this mysterious "Screech" and finding its effects as devastating as the name implies, adopted it as their favourite.

The opportunistic liquor board pounced on the name and reputation and began labeling Newfoundland Screech, the most popular brand on the Island, even today (nowadays they use Jamaican rum)."

Sergio, as far as a RIG gap..Take a look at the piff chart,,a good example of lower bottoms<g>,,but actually gave a buy on the 3 box reversal. So from a P&F standpoint,this isn't a bad spot to buy in,this is a class 1 company(and S&P debt rating also)..Now I just need the sector to reverse up(sector has been weak,as well OSX relative strength),,but there are value hunters beginning to come to market,IMO (like my dad buying KR at 15,TWRS at 15--I have to pay closer attention to what he's doing<g>)
