>>Did anyone notice these trades today? A 320,000 block at 8-1/4 at 15:06:54 and the 285,000 block at 8-5/16 at 15:06:57.<<

No we did not see no such thing. Since it happened a few days ago and it just showed up when the last of the shares were distributed. The charts does show that we went into distribution a few days ago when it went below 10. I hope the MM's are not holding out any more blocks right now. Tomorrow will tell, If the price still falls then there a few more blocks in the pen.

Bob,

The large block trading is a good sign. Many large funds have rules that they can not hold securities under $10/share. Smaller funds are picking up those blocks you see traded. Now that the big fund selling is over, you can expect to see a bottom. I don't think we will break todays low of 8. The price is getting very attractive to the small to mid cap fund managers--they will buy and hold for the long term.
