Here are the numbers I have for DO.

1st Q estimated earnings: $.55. 1st Q previous year: $.40.

12 month trailing PE: 22.7. PE after earnings (no surprise): 21.1.

Second quarter comparisons look better. Estimated $.77 vs. $0.46.

this is something that is really bugging me about CNBC

the excuse is alway..."good old fashioned profit taking"

how do you know that
how do you know the people that are selling even have a profit.

How do you know its not people getting out while the getting is good...

and they will get back in later...or maybe they wont

Because ole David Plonk just might be right....(so far ..he is, btw)
