Hey Cheer Up, it's a short time until results come out, which people will use to justify a purchase. Until then, there will be some doubts and nervousness.
MRVC is not growing at 100% anymore, and if you look at last quarter's 6% sequential growth, that gives 25% annual growth. 25 times 97 earnings of .87, is under $25 and looking at 98 earnings of about 1.10 with 25% growth would result in 25X 1.10 = 27.50.
MRVC must prove they are growing at 40% to get back to upper 30s.
For those who know the company well, they add to their positions now.
For those who don't, they pay a higher price next week, but feel secure in their decision at that time.

Good Luck,
Ketan

I think the problem is that the earnings are being announced far too late in the season. Also, we haven't seen the kind of rapid acceleration in price as many stocks during this latest rally. It gets tiresome. For my part, I am not technical enough to add depth to the discussion. It's not that I don't care. I am an avid lurker. mph
