what wonderful leaders we have the $80bil war budget of course passes easily; no one willing to stand against it so what do they do? sneak in billions of $'s of useless pork spending as to MO first the states have already spent the money expected from future payments and issued "tobacco" bonds against the spending now that is at risk because of more greed in Ill. and as to taxes they keep raising them example in Mass a carton is $58 vs $9 in St. Martin; so at least $50 is taxes whan states have to depend on sin taxes, lotteries, and casinos to survive times can not be called great but our economy is just fine? gimmee a break

MO ... >>>nothing like getting up on a beautiful Spring morning to see a few inches of snow and ice pellets raining down well sir, I guess my view is a great deal better than is yours .... upon rising, as I walked down the driveway to get the Dallas News, I was greeted by a pair of robins searching for worms in my freshly mowed lawn.... of course, it could be said, that EACH of US gets what he deserves ....you get ice and I get growing grass .. heh heh heh heh here is the URL for that triangle dealie I saw on MO yesterday .... talkstox.com whilst I was trying to send it yesterday, SI got the vapors or something ... don't know if this is available to non members, but if it is, scroll down about eight or nine to the chart I posted on TS Charts1 ... I killed all the cookies and history on my machine after posting here and was able to pull up the site, but that doesn't mean that it will be viewable to just anyone ... now, I know you'll say FA was so valuable in the assessment of MO ... I say ... nah, I won't say it ... gggggg I surely was tickled that I saw it immediately when I pulled the chart after Lar posted he bought .... those time triangles don't happen a whole lot, but when they do .... it gets interesting .... sure do hate it for the price dump for Larry, and the ice for you ..... oh well... just desserts for yankees I guess .... ggggg

It's interesting that the PSFT chart didn't really telegraph a miss of that magnitude. While the stock underperformed the S&P 500 and Nasdaq throughout March, it followed the big software companies around (e.g. ORCL and MSFT). PSFT filled a gap at about 15.90 and rallied. I played that move. The stock then came back to the base in the low 15s and rallied over 17. I played that move for another small gain, but obviously didn't pick the high or low. I'm just glad that I'm out of my long! The stock has traded between 13.75 and 14.90 premarket with most of the volume between 14.35 and 14.50. The fact that it isn't down more on a 40% revenue miss could mean that it was mostly discounted. I'm not messing with it today. Want to see where it shakes out. I'd be more inclined to short it if it rallies back to the previous base near 15.10 than to go long at this point.
