wow -- how mundane! I would have never thought looking at that chart >>Deluxe Corporation sells checks and related products to individuals and small businesses. In addition, the Company produces computer and business forms on a small-quantity order basis, including continuous forms, deposit tickets, invoices, statements, tax forms and labels. Its checks and business forms are compatible with nearly all off-the-shelf accounting software packages. Deluxe also sells accessories, such as checkbook covers, deskbooks and rubber stamps. In addition, the Company offers products and services to its financial institution clients and consumers, such as protection from check order fraud. Its <<

Allan, this chart reminds me that picture of some fellow that you linked a day or two ago, the one you can't always show in polite company <g-> Maybe you would be willing to discuss the following question. The NDX rallied so far in three waves since the low of 1329 about a week ago. Theoretically speaking, it MAY be off to rally in a wave '3'. A pullback from this level could be a reversal of the rally, but it could also be a 2 of 3. The question is, can the 2 of 3 go below the top of the larger degree '1'? and IF yes, then how far? At what point would such a pullback confirm that the rally was indeed an ABC? Thanks much.

paper forms stocks are hot quote.yahoo.com don't you know. Easy Al decided to lower rates to zero to help the earnings of just 15% of the S&P 500, inspite of how well other sectors were doing. the needs of the few outweigh the welfare of the many, regardless whether that many in the same 15% were also misrepresenting their business condition.

DLX has a share repurchase program started in January last year. They are buying up 14 million of their shares, which is more than a quarter of the float. As of now they have bought 12 of the 14 million. That comes to about 15% of the total trading volume during the past year. No wonder the stock has been steadily going up in a straight line. Conveniently enough, as your other post points out, plenty of insiders are cashing out. At this rate, the buyback will end in a month or two. I use Deluxe's product -- my credit union uses their checks. They are overpriced, and a big incentive to get rid of them and use electronic billing wherever possible. In the last year I have reduced my use of paper checks by around 90%. I don't think that part of DLX business is growth anymore. Kyros
