Lets hope we don't go to 9 or 10. I see volume is picking up on a down day. Has anyone heard of any good news coming out. Next earnings is a long way off. Christmas is coming early I hope. Its in the 80's today so I'm not worrying to much. I'm outside and enjoying my weather and with no inflation and low unemployment lets hope people are buying cars. I did and I would take APCO's contract if and when I buy my next car if its there for me to buy. Hate working on cars. There use to be allot to talk about on this company. I liked it at 13 I most love it at 11. Jack

Like you, APCO is a big long termer for me. Second only to RADAF in $$, and equal in # of shares. Opposite of you, though, I was thinking of selling some RADAF and moving it to APCO to even things out $$wise. I just can't part with any RADAF right now, with a nice three weeks of climb to earnings ahead of us. The malaise we are seeing today across the board is the result of options expiring. This is the first month for APCO to experience this phenomenon, and is why it may be getting moved a little more than others. I am sure that there are many who have written calls that would like to see them expire worthless. I'm not an expert in options, but the weird action always happens on the Friday before the third Saturday of every month. TA it all you want, but that is what we are seeing today, IMHO. It's also why you are seeing the increased activity as we near the close. ATM
