With earnings coming tomorrow afternoon, which direction will this thing move? From a former long, I see these factors -

A move up should occur if -

earnings exceed the 9 cents by quite a few pennies
revenues increase significantly (200%) in sequential quarters
a split is announced
(I see all three happening)

A move down should occur if -

earnings are 10 cents a share or less (after charges)
revenue growth slows
a split isn't announced
a conference call indicates a less than stellar future
(Unfortunately, I do see that last one happening)

Either way, if I'm a Yahoo insider and haven't been able to move my shares for the last two weeks (during a 40% gain), I'm profit taking Thursday morning. So either way, I see this baby moving down Thursday .

Absolutely incredible! In almost twenty years of investing, I have NEVER seen anything like this. Yes, they will write books on this one. Shall I title it, or would you like the honors. SI may not appreciate what I'd like to call it. ;)

Smart investors will bail before it returns to Earth.
