A little while since being on board. Just checked on INSP---not a good chart!

It seems to me that the merger is the wrong way. GNET should buy INSP not INSP buying GNET----why, because to me GNET appears to be the stronger company.

Everything in market taking a toll today-----may not have seen the last of this "bear" market.

Well, we printed $49 5/8 on GNET today as the anchor that is INSP has us struggling to keep our heads above the "surface" of the $46-49 support range on GNET's daily chart:

Now the question is whether that support line will assist in providing the support that INSP requires before it can bottom and trade upward again.

Note that the Bollinger Bands are tightening a bit on daily chart suggesting that big move may in the offing sometime soon. Hope that it's not to the downside as that could/should place further downside pressure on INSP. If that should occur, I would fear that even $25/share wouldn't hold on INSP... and that would be extremely UGLY.

Apparently the street is being a bit cautious about stepping in and supporting the stock, despite the road show.

On a positive note, today's action in the Nasdaq is pretty encouraging. If this action holds and we end in the positive or close to the neutral, it could signal a short to intermediate term trend reversal to the upside. It also should plot a nice "hammer" on the daily candlesticks.

It also helps that the Treasury is buying back over $200 billion in treasury debt, pumping more money into the economy. I expect that Clinton will probably encourage Summers to continue this buyback agressively in order to boost the performance of the market and thus, support for his underling, Mr. Gore.

NOTE: INSP just printed $27 7/16.
