<<quick answer i don't know"", yup,i'm with you there Tom.
Hopefully we don't go lower, we picked up a few board
bouncers before earnings, they left today and so did some
serious money.
Zippergate, Iraq, earnings, etc are going to depress
alot of people. The earnings were good, but in this
kind of market i think we needed 500%+<G>.
At least we are in entertainment, alot of people will
need it. ulcer medicine, hair loss,junk food,prozac,
heart attack medicine, and stress pills would be good
sectors right now.
I'm going to stop following stocks for awhile, go back
to playing more games. Q2 got action game of the year
in CGW, Jedi Knight got game of the year:-(.

Best,
Alex

I agree that a strong move to the upside is imminent.

With a stock like ATVI fundamentals don't mean much. You need to look at their repetoire of games and assess the prospects for those titles in 1998. And frankly with BattleZone and Quake II I see two games that are going to consistently rank in the top 10 and possibly top 5 PC game titles. In fact, Quake II recently even cracked into the top 10 PC software titles of all types. That is incredible considering Microsoft only had one title in the top 10 at that time.

Why on earth anyone dumped it today is beyond me. The smart move now is to start scarfing it up in anticipation of the inevitable surge on the GREAT Quake II and Battlezone sales figures we know are coming.
