Greenlaw...not meant to rain on the parade..but recent MF article says about CIENA already coming up with all-optical network solution which may obsolete CORV's invention. Also insiders own about 91% (per yahoo) which is sizable overhang for the lockup period.. But if the institutions are loading up, maybe they are seeing better valuations in CORV vs CIENA..

Nasdaq Futures fully digested the PPI numbers . . .which would suggest that the economy is not as in need of a cut as thought. Core PPI +0.3% [higher than expected] . . Crude fuel was up 32%! Ouch! Retail sales were stronger than expected, too. . .lots of cars bought in December. . . clothing strong too. That the Nasdaq could absorb this completely and bounce right back to where they were goes to the strength of the move in the Nasdaq. Then again, it could go to the strength of the manipulators wanting to gap the techs up sharply to trap as many as possible before starting the next wave of selling. I can't say which at this time. But I'll be selling a portion of swing trades into morning strength, anticipating that the "backward steps" will soon kick in. . . today perhaps. . . then when the market makes up its mind, I'll trade with the trend.
