Max: You can look at the five year chart at this following location:
quote.yahoo.com
It is trading at its low range. It had been over 25 dollars.
For a company profile:
biz.yahoo.com
They appear to be growing finally at a sizable rate. I guess Morgan Stanley feels they will:
biz.yahoo.com

I feel that the market, being at its all time bullish high, is ripe for the wireless stocks to finally start to move again. This one is in favor. Today, anyway. I would watch it trade Monday morning, if you have access to time & sales chart, great. The way it looked today, with large buys, I would think it has quite a way to go. 10 or higher. Depends on what is said in the following weeks about it. You might want to check:
biz.yahoo.com
everyday, several times, to see what's new. If you see it trade odd, call your broker and ask him if there is anything new on it. Be prepared for anywhere from one to several weeks of watching it before you realize where it's going.

Mahalo, Terry

PS. Beware of negative info. Always make sure they can back up what they say. If they have no email, give old unprovable stats, etc. If all they quote is negative, nothing positive, They are hoping to make money when the stock drops.(Or, pick up cheaper shares) Worse than someone who only quotes good. They have puts or have shorted it. There are a lot of short players here. Remember, more money made quicker, on a severe sell offs. Short interest can be found:
