Herm, Ken, & Ryan While they certainly give a different visual impression, both linear and log charts should be OK for finding support levels. The real problem I see is that neither of these charts has been adjusted for the recent split. The next support is actually at 11_5/8 from October 1998. (My wacko data service does do some things right :) ) By the way Herm, I don't think you have to post in fixed font when you include a link as you said to someone in another message. I never do that. Maybe that was only a restriction in a former era of SI. Dan ED: It's probably also worth noting that in 1995, the P/E ratio of ROST never got much lower than it is right now, even when it was down around $2.50 ($5 then I think).

Herm, I'd agree with you that your chart shows support in the 10 area. It's a longer view than I posted (my mistake), but the support would have been evident on either type of chart. Still, to be long right now is too early. As you mentioned, this is a good opportunity for some puts. At least right now. Ken
