Brad, the sun isn't shining on Hong-Kong and the overseas markets right now! Honk-kong down over 5 percent again and almost all the rest deep in the red. News tonight showed Hong kong Banks turning people away at the doors in a 1929 type panic. Russia is down 6 1/2, Jeez, I hope Yeltson doesn't croak!

On a different note, I was watching "Tin Cup" tonight on the tube tonight and Kosner came out the classic line of which I believe some on this thread can relate to!

"Greatness courts failure"

Sometimes the difference is just luck and other times more than that. Good "luck" to the thread and lets hope some IDX news supplies us with the "More than that"!

Had a little $5 laser manufactoring stock that got a $30m order. They got a one time order for a Laser tool for gum (dentist not chewing) operations. Shot to $25, dropped to $18. Sold half my shares. Two years later sold the other half for $3. They were sued for developing other dental lasers by the guys who placed the orders. Don't how Sun is trading today, didn't hang around for the end of the law suit.

IMHO Still think there could be the same type of action on IDX with the exception of a strong ongoing long term business after the jump and fall back.

Of course, we currently have the Oracle Asian Flu to deal with. If we recover from this one, ther will be another strain to deal with later. Hope it is not a high tech flu.
