Long term (after 1Q earnings), with all the ATM contracts that have been announced, I think that ASND should trade considerably up from 35. Gary -- I know I'm biased, but listening to all the networking companies today --- to say nothing of all the other conferences and shows I've attended over the past two years --- it's glaringly clear the telecommunications market is huge. Granted, not all the networkers are going to come out on top, but those with the right products, established market positions, and good management stand a good chance. My money's on ASND, NN, CSCO, JDS.T, and CKEYF (OSS spingoff from NN). I know there are lots of other good plays but I just don't have time to study them all. Later -- Pat

Gary, IR's response had been far too waffling for me. This was specific. You see, they finally waffled you too. (VBG) Suddenly, April expiration is less fearsome I agree. I have also thanked Pat as I read this as a green light to hold my longterm shares at least another Q with only downside risk being outside market gyrations. Fuzfo

Should we be concerned about a possible correction at this time? I realize it's very difficult to time the market, however with all the talk lately of a correction, it might be wise to lock in some profit. I've done this in the past, though with little success ... each time I was too early and the stock market just continued it's upward trend. Any advice you could provide would be greatly appreciated. I also want to send a big "Thank You" from myself and I'm sure everybody else on this thread. Your efforts to provide this thread with timely information regarding ASND have not gone unnoticed from what I've been reading and please keep the info coming. Thanks again, Eric E
