Dont' get me wrong - I think that MANU is a great company. But I think that today is extra-ordinary. Triple the average volume in the stock and very heavy volume in the options is very unusual indeed. As a matter of fact, the last time there was this much activity in the options was the week that MANU went of the cliff! Anyway, here's hoping that there is some news headed this way!

Looks like its headed down first, before it'll go up. Imho, 4 reasons may be contributing to this: 1) Investors' perception via HWP warnings yesterday ... 9 quarters in a row ... less than expected ... businesses do take some real-time to recover! 2) CA - guilty by association - when street does not like you anymore ... they will use any excuse (Y2K, reaching their forecast target) ... to put the desirable-spin to pull you down ... investors afraid of the same with MANU ... even after possible OK earnings next quarter. 3) 50% advance from 20 to 30 in less than 2 months was too much to handle by most on the street ... normal profit taking. 4) R/R ratio (risk-to-reward) may not be felt great at 29 now, than it was at 21 earlier. Any comments? regards to all, -/Sonny.
