MOT will trade higher tomorrow. You guys don't need to read anymore posts. I have said all that needs to be said.

$0.03 is meaningless

Run the numbers. MOT has 595.5 shares outstanding. The miss of $0.03 multiplied by 595.5 gives $17.9M. Yes, MOT was off $17.8M on $1.18B in revenues. So?

MOT was off 1.5% from the estimates. Watch investors sell MOT tomorrow and chop off about a billion or more in market cap for a $0.03 miss. Is that rational... no.
