That would require a marketing agreement that would involve CPQ putting something up...cash/goods, etc. Why do that? People can get it anyway...what would CPQ gain? Nothing, it would only cost them.

Well! Down to 27!!! Do I hear 26? This piece of ________ (insert whatever derogative term you choose) just keeps sinking. Down nearly 20%!!! from 33 just three weeks ago!!!! Fact remains -stocks go down when supply exceeds demand. And so - more people are selling cpq than are willing to buy cpq during the last three weeks. Do any of my fellow cpq longs care to explain just who are these sellers? Please explain why despite the plethora of positive comments from a ton of brokerages and analysts this stock keeps heading south. In a nutshell - why do the majority of investors not believe the turnaround story of cpq? And given that scenario why are we on this thread (which realistically consists of no more than 20 people) so zealously and naively rah rah for cpq. It's obvious that in the short term at least we are wrong. I should probably sell and wait until mid march before considering rebuying cpq. Until mid march, there is little we can look forward to. Who disagrees with me and if so, go ahead and tell me why you disagree? I keep waiting for a reason to stick with this stock in the short term. Make my day !!!!
