Matt, Looks like COMS is back on track for the moment and you got yourself a good price yesterday. I'll be running into a bit more $$ in the next few days, and I'm wondering what might be a good entry point. Just noticed a huge 400K block trade, as COMS is pushing forward. Maybe it was the same entity that dumped it yesterday from listening to CNBC.<g> General market is starting to feel a bit better. The Fed, banks, G-7, President, etc. seem to be organizing to put more focus on world problems. Hopefully, they will stop another Russia type situation from happening again, if they can. joe
