Well you asked and I have to say, usually I would not answer.

Not because I think I'm hot stuff, just because it's out of my field and I wish not to mislead.

So I glanced and saw that lisa answered, but no one else. If you want to know my honest opinion, there is no clue as to what a specific stock will do once the news is out.

You are always on your own with that stuff; each situation is different.

Jay,

I have not be around that long trading, but it appears that it works since this market is so hot, and abnormally hot. If this was a down market or a range-trading market do not feel that such stategy would work.

Like to hear other opinions.

Jay:

In a market that is moving up strongly, like today, it will work, especially if the stock is one that momentum players have been piling on. Often, however, a stock will pop on the open and then settle back and not trade higher. It depends on the market overall and the individual stock.

In any event, congratulations on a good trade.

David
