Falstaff, BTW, will someone please explain to this bumkin what the "ACE CONSENSUS ESTIMATES" and the "AQO" are, as referenced in the post from Gooch (#7153), or recommend where I can learn about this. ACE (Analysts' Consensus Earnings Estimates) is a system from S&P. They take all of the analysts covering a stock and "average" together their earnings estimates to arrive at a consensus. ACE contains the earnings estimates for the current quarter & the past quarter, the earnings estimates for the current fiscal year & the next fiscal year and the annual estimated earnings growth rate for the next five years. AQO is an acronym for Average Qualitative Opinion. This is a measurement of the quality of a stock. It is usually compared to the S&P 500 APO to determine whether a stock should be classified as "BUY", "ACCUMULATE", "HOLD", "SELL" etc... And, as long as I am asking for education, can anybody tell me why the price is on a downward slide again, even when NASDAQ is surging upward??? More sellers than buyers??? KJC

>>And, as long as I am asking for education, can anybody tell me why the price is on a downward slide again, even when NASDAQ is surging upward???<< As I've said before, look at JMAR's stock history. It has nothing to do with the company. M
