TOM The chart has had a nice trend but I feel it's showing weakness because of general market sentiment. As earnings criteria is more closely scrutinized and flight to quality is evident. Lower P/E is what new money is looking for IMO. Strong forward earnings visibility are the biggest gems. Jeff

Jenna, exactly my point ... re: "On a day when the 'dart board' theory could find a winning trade it is amazing it did not regain ground" I was expecting the price action of TOM to be like that of NOBE on earnings, but the price action was like that of AVEI (different sector but you get my drift). If TOM does not regain some ground on early next week, something is definitely off. FWIW I am neither long or short TOM and do not touch stocks whose trading pattern I can't fathom.

Jenna I have followed and read your posts from time to time You clearly love this "game" and put a lot of time and effort into it Please take my comments in the proper manner as they are intended to help rather than hurt You do not seem to take many losses; how is this possible? is your real trading track record that good, ie, 99% plus winners? if so, hats off You post a ton of ideas, how many do you trade for real? Your give a lot of info on SI but it seems to me to be a marketing tool to get customers for your newsletter, web site, etc. Nothing wrong with that; just an observation I was troubled by your posts on the TOM trade On Thur evening you said " TOM, a steady gainer, less fickle and more dependable than RON" Fri at 10:22 it was " good shape... and I'm BULLISH on... TOM,... still maintaining strength." Then at 1:14" out of the blue, it was "TOM was easy to 'escape' before it tanked since I was expecting trouble." How do posts like that help your readers What was the magic behind your sudden shift in the view of this stocks action? If you were "expecting trouble" then why were your posts only strongly bullish until after you had sold out at a profit? Just some Sat morning random observations.
