blaireo 1, there may be one more opportunity to buy NN on a price dip, [ I hope, :-) ]. It has happened to other stocks as well as to NN, in the past, that some fast and loose broker will put out " a rumor " from " informed sources " that NN " will not meet earnings". It is true that in the past that was often true, but I remember at least once when it was not ( 1996 or 97 I think ). If that happens, it will dip long enough I hope to get into some cheaper shares. If it comes it will likely come by this Fri or next Tues. The chance of that happening now are less than 5% in my guesstimate but you never know. Perhaps Flynn can re-issue reassurances, <vbg> TA

blaireo, ALA announced a 5:1 split to " make shares more affordable ". Yeah, right. They appear quite hot: alcatel.com Market cap 44 Bill. I suppose they can afford NN at 8 bill ( $47/sh ). But let us not forget the smaller companies, who bought bigger companies: QWST/USWest, WCOM/MCI on stock swap. So ALA with 900 mill shares can certainly buy NN. NN continues to have high daily volumes. Shares are obviously being accumulated, TA
