Dan, do you think GUMM is getting smacked around today because of that Mayo clinic story in the WSJ?

Dan, You almost have to make the assumption that quarters will be similar, since the cold season occurs over a set time during the year. The fourth quarter is usually ramping up for the cold season and the first quarter is restocking what has been sold.....the 2nd and 3rd are basically nothing, as previous earnings have shown. I agree with Kevin....someone was disappointed today. Sure a lot of selling. Paul

I pointed out like you that you can't make investment or trading decisions based on "usually" because "usually" doesn't always occur. Do you have a reading comprehension problem, Kevin? No, do you? I'M pointing out that that statement above is tantamount to saying, "you can't make investment or trading decisions, ever." Because it's virtually inevitable that at some point along the way, one draws upon one's experience as to "what usually happens" in deciding what's going to happen in the future. If you take that away, how can you ever draw any conclusions? Like I said, they aren't MY projections. They are projections from the company. That wrong, and you even admit as much in the post with the numbers. MTXX forecasted 30% revenue growth, that's all. The rest are YOUR numbers. So what's this about the Mayo Clinic...?
