We all know the well documented reasons for the drop, but; can anyone explain the relatively poor performance compared to it's peers SANM, SLR, etc.?? JBIL if anything should have a higher pe than all of them! PUZZLED!

Thanks for the info. "Window Dressing" makes sense to me, now.

>>I am very disappointed with JBIL's performance especially considering that they actually beat estimates and especially considering how nicely COMS was treated this week after missing the sharply revised downward earnings. It just doesn't make any sense to me. << You my son, obviously missed something there.. The miss part is they beat estimates! Now take ADBE, ran up 5 points on the day of earning, they missed estimates by a heck of a lot, The stock drops 3 points on profit taking. And its now a STRONG BUY!
