Louis: The stock is up 3/16 on almost 200,000 shares traded... The chart shows a definite rising momentum pattern: iqc.com This type of activity usually precedes some positive Fundamental activity not yet known to the public... I've been adding to my position all week... Jim

Normally, a company would buy back some of its own stock if management felt the stock was a bargain AND it could not identify a better use for its funds. I think BEAM is identifying a better use for its funds and while I'm not betting the ranch, I have been adding steadily to my position regardless of what my wife says. I have had both of my eyes corrected and can see things a lot more clearly. This whole industry is taking off and at 1/3 the P/E of VISX (where I also have a modest position) BEAM is a bargain. I think the 10% increase in both of them today was a reaction to the LCAV news. One of these days Summit will be opening its wallet. Then watch out! Paul Kelly
