What about your "stuffing the channal" rumor before the earnings announcement Dave? From your impassioned defense of Jackson, I have to believe there's some connection. The four top analysts in this stock are all at "strong buy." I think that Jackson was planing to downgrade before the conference. The other rumor that you published here was that ASPT would not make their quarter. Are you a double agent spreading misinformation "Trader Dave?"

How about this for your basic dubious analysis? Jackson lowers his 99 earnings expectations for ASPT from $1.40 to $1.23, the lowest on the street. He will have to raise that later because Jim Carrekar's guidance is for at least 30% growth. All that other crap he put out with the announcement such as ASPT a "core holding" and "premier company" designed to soften the blow so that the company might talk to him in the future. Trader Dave, who I now think is tied in here somehow, told me that an analyst who received an upbeat signal from management last year prior to earnings but that this year the company would not give him advance guidance from which he concluded that earnings would not meet expectations. Was that analyst Jackson trader dave?
