I would get very worried if ASND closes down near 2 points today with a volume of more than 10 mil shares. That would signal a possible reversal. Otherwise, I think it might still close at @35 on Friday.

Djane,

Very good analysis, thanks. May I add:

1. There was a post from last night stated that Institution holdings for Asnd have shown Strong increases in the past month.

2. I think that The capital investment groups is holding their shares for a good purpose.

3. Clearly we have, to a large extend, options exp. tradings influences here. Both Gary K and Gary W had good examples of options related price actions posts last night.

Jan

djane,

I agree with you w/ respect of that moron on CNBC this morning. He was a "quant", just number cruncher, he doesn't look at fundamentals. He didn't like CS because analysts were downgrading estimates, but he liked CSCO and BAY(?).

I prefer to buy a stock with a P/E higher than its growth rate and the estimates being raised than the other way around. Soon growth will catch up with the price. That is clearly the situation with ASND.

CSCO PE is 50.29 as of this afternoon's trading down 3/4 at $63 5/8ths. So its PE is 10x earnings bigger than your comments in your post. All the better an arguement for ASND's undervaluation.
