I heard that COMS was about to get into the network attached storage business (thestreet.com). Sorry I don't have a URL. One was sent to me and is on this board, but it doesn't go to the story and I don't have a subscription.

Anyone have a cite with some good detail?

Steve,

>>Toady's action looks like a base is forming.. your thoughts?

(i.e. a lot of volume but no price movements).<<

Well, price movement is very steady between 36.5 and 36.75.

See: quote.yahoo.com

Note how we were going down rapidly to test 36 and somebody
came in with a 300K slug. I'm think that institutions consider
that a bargain now, and possibly not much down side
below 36. Volume is twice as good as an average good day.
That tells me more institutionals are buying the story.

Base forming....historically, base forming is going lower and
oscillating. Maybe we do that later...time will tell.
Otoh, institutionals are in Phase II of getting in, so we
may be pushing higher or maybe there are enough sellers at
the moment to fill the new institutionals needs.

The real test will be how we do when testing 37. We need
to know how many shorts, traders, mo-mos are in, or get
in at that point. Some of these guys are on our side at
least.

More later,
joe
