Let's not fret about Farrell's sale. All it means is that he wants to cash in on some well-earned profits. If he thought the stock was due for a downtrend, he would not sell since he would face some possible litigation. While there are several reasons why someone would want to sell some stock, there is only one when one would buy some. Unfortunately, we don't have such a benefit. But that's alright. Let's not look too much further into the sale. A sale of a couple of thousand shares is not going to change the consistent uptrend, even though it is from an insider. Like Bleeker( I think??) said, anybody else with a close eye on the stock is going to sell at 350-500% gains. It's common sense. As for Stagger Lee, you're just waiting for ANY kind of opening to spout off. I think you're wrong. You disparage this thread by doing so. I appreciated your earlier posts since they had some kind of backing, but your latter posts have been unsubstantial. Let's keep it on an intellectual level. Thank you. P.S. I see THQI at $23-24 at year-end.

1)Sigmund, the sales occured in November. I'm not sure if they preceded or followed the Wedbush downgrade. (The report doesn't give a specific date.) Perhaps Farrell's decision will weigh on the stock short term. If he sold 12% of his holdings at $18.70, he may actually sell more at these higher levels. It's a possibility and I wanted to raise the issue in light of some selling from investors who I respect very much on this thread, including Haines. 2)Next week's CPI number should provide a key signal for the near term direction of the market. A relief rally is a strong possibility I feel given the fact that 30-year interest rates are now below 6 percent. What this market needs is perhaps another 10 basis point trim off of the long bond to make the bears realize that the case for another tech wreck is really overblown. Anyway, we're not too far away from that. Bleeker
