Craig, The 'Quicken' downgrade was also reported on the Yahoo message board. I went to Quicken and there's no reason for it. They have no changes in the earnings estimates, still the same as they've been all year. The analyst needs to be contacted again to see if he has changed his rating. Every place I've looked has it as a Strong Buy. Ron

Craig, Found it, I think. AS I understand it, Quicken has a market trigger that occurs when a stock drops a certain percentage. I didn't catch it until I looked at VectorVest and saw they had also dropped to hold. They still rate it as a Buy on fundamentals, but lowered due to tech analysis. They recommend a stop/loss at $18.40. I really don't get it as I don't understand charting or tech analysis and try to buy on value fundamentals. Added to position at 19. For what it's worth, Ron
