RE: Upgrade This is how Briefing.com had posted it. "Ascend Comms Soundview from St Hold to ST Buy" But I had heard earlier it would be a near term buy.

RE: ASND's action today: Some people might have got the upgrade news before it hit the wire. That accounted for the runup. After the news was officially out and people found out that SoundView is still having a "hold" on ASND for long-term, they started selling! An analyst really can drive a stock up and down! Short term "buy" and long term "hold": Does that mean if you're a trader buy it now and if you're an investor then hold?
