Looks to me like orb just made a near term retest on pretty huge volume. I would look for a bounce tomorrow or next week. The 16/17 price is pretty solid support going back at least two years.

Sure, but both ORB and IRIDF have satellites up already. IRIDF especially have had one of their competitors virtually eliminated for 12 months. Moreover, such an event should highlight the good success record of ORB in conducting launches, and also underline the benefits of low cost single shots (ORB) vs a launching a very large clutch of eggs in a very expensive basket.
