After telling folks it would be 50% higher than original concensus estimate, they beat the revised by 23%. That's a good reason for someone to dump millions of shares, isn't it? Either they're a bunch of dummies, or we are. You dream about companies that can do this.....and pray you're long beforehand. 0ver 30 tomorrow? Any other stock I'd say yes it would go over 35! With KEM, we're in the twilight zone... Steve
