That's great, Doug. But I don't classify COMS as a falling knife. In my definition, a falling knife is one that starts the trip with a very disappointing fundamental event. The stock will gap down and trade big volume (200-300% or more of avg). A classic recent example of a falling knife is INTC, after the most recent earnings. In COMS case, the stock rallied before and after the most recent earnings. But the earnings/cc weren't that great, so the doubts begin to work at the stock. Now COMS is simply caught in the general market correction, and it's not quite as strong a stock as some others at this point. If Benhamou and friends could see fit to do another road show, the stock will fly up, just like in May-June. The analysts just need to be sweet-talked. DK
