Something is not adding up here! The company is telling folks that 2nd quarter earnings are going to come in at the $0.21 - $0.24 area. This information is not going to the small holders, but to the big guys. These guys could be selling on this information, but the stock is trending higher. This doesn't make sense.

Interesting news on the stock option front. According to the recently received annual meeting notice Bob Din owned 743,619 shares of stock and 16,667 exercisable stock options. According to a Feb 17th SEC form 13-G filing Bob Din's stock holdings has increased to 760,285 shares. Looks like Bob exercised his options and held the stock. Any thoughts about this market action?

Soft computer sales in the first quarter seems to be affirming the pull back in expected results for ENPT in the current quarter. If earnings come in at $0.21 the stock will likely take a couple of points hit. Trading opportunity or just a temporary set back to the longer term recovery in the stock? Chris ...
