Trippi: You are dead on the money (no pun intended). WCW income is now irrelevant except to build some cash reserves. Andy: No, its not happy yet. The intraday chart looks lousy. And these types of crashes usually form double bottoms on a daily chart (not intraday). We're not there yet as far as I can see. -Jerry

Trippi, In that case the the market priced the stock waaaaaay too high based upon expectations that WCW would be the huge growth engine for years to come. Very few games offer anything more than a couple of years of growth and IMO WCW is no exception and will not the huge 'franchise hit' that Mario, Doom, etc. are that keep fueling growth.

Doesn't matter! Figures are figures and the Math is still the same.If another game is developed and released and it produces the same sales/profit margin that WCW produced then at the very worst we are breakeven (Same place as we were had WCW never existed but the game producing those exact margins did.)If another excellent game was produced then it is even better.You can say that "if we had WCW it would be even better" but the only Criteria should be if each quarter is a certain percentage better than the last whatever your parameters are in that regard. Meanwhile since we presently don't know the terms of the license renewal we dont know what the Margins would have been or how much more could be wrung out of the existing franchise.The people need to listen to themselves on this Board. Previously most messages talked about what a Genius CEO Farrell was and now based on whatever Logic the Guy is an Idiot and People want to Dump the Stock even before knowing the exact details. Charles
