Hi Don - If there is a restatement of earnings for the past year, any idea as to what the amount might be? Can you speculate as to what the impact would be on the price of the stock or is this event already factored into the current price?

My guess is that the stock could trade back to the $6.00 area (remember IFMX) and then trade higher once all the facts begin to hit the street. This may take several weeks or months but then I believe the downside risk will be reduced and the stock will eventually consolidate in the $8.00 range.

Once this news is behind us and new management is in place, then perhaps a steady move higher is possible based on how the new Novell products sell especially the release of NetWare 5.

I still believe it is too early to initiate any new positions at these levels.

EKS

Novell trading trends

I watched 240,000 go across the ticker on the up tick right in the same area 10 9/16 as we saw a number of other large trades.

I believe we have got some institution moving the price to where they want to trade. I suppose this can go on as long as they can find buyers. It would be really interesting if we could find out who the buyer was/is.
