Russ; I tend to buy companies that are well managed, have good products, have ample cash, are growing at higher levels than their industry, and have depressed stock prices. They are not currently being well managed, have some good products but most are not standouts, have a real cash problem, are likely losing market share, but they do have a depressed stock price. ..Just does not even come close to my criteria, esp. compared to the overall market. So, no I am not buying at any price right now. Best Regards, John Stewart

MTSN REPORTING is due Nov 13 after the close. Barring a miracle, it will have lots of genuinely nasty news. Between now and then the price is probably being massaged up so some bigger players can unload some stock on you (or anybody else). You are supposed to read the price action as: "great news coming!!!!!!!!!" It may prove to be bad advice but I would wait to see what happens after the report. Should be a good fast retest of the $3 level. If it is anything at all, at the present time this is in my opinion a trading stock, not a long term buy and hold. All in my misguided and consistently wrong opinion of course! Namaste! Jim
