"Earnings should only concern short term traders and nervous nellies. IOM is in a long term bullish trend and that's what counts." It's funny how you call other people traders when you focus on technical indicators yourself as evidenced by this comment: "Along with many other technical indicators, I like to watch the Put/Call interest." If you focus on technical indicators, your are a trader. Investors focus on fundamentals. The reason why so many people, longs and shorts alike, are fiercely focusing on IOM's earnings this time around is because the fundamentals have deteriorated. People are wondering whether they need to get out or stick it out. Either way, people are nervously anticipating the earnings release coupled with the conference call to give them an indication on IOM's long term chances for a turnaround.
