A very strong earnings announcement will go hand and hand with a split announcement. I have experienced that companies will split their shares if their prospects for future earnings are very good. No company wishes to split their stock and then release bad news, so that halved shares get even leaner. I have read projections by Conigliaro and Milunovich for a strong earnings report on Thursday. I think the shares will run up above $100 and it would be natural to announce a June or July split date for SUNW. This is just my speculation, not fact whatsoever. I also feel that there will be a shift of ownership between many of the money managers and individuals away from MSFT due to the Judges conclusion that they violated the Sherman Anti-Trust Act, and SUNW. So more money will come in on the "buy" side to SUNW.
