DD is a euphemistic term. To expound upon DD is a given unless you get the tip from God. Also there is not a predetermined boiler plate of guidance in reviewing a company. Sixty two percent of all active in a stock is based on volume. Twenty seven percent is based on rumor. Four percent on book value. And the remainder, seven percent is the financial masturbation that you can do with the numbers. Remember the supply and demand theory? 18 million shares traded today. Takeover rumors are being published, news of new contracts. What does an investor do? Review the financials and see if it justifies the current buying and movement in the stock? Or does he go by the most reliable factor available "upticks". To quote an old time investor of stocks, "you study long, you study wrong" Don't fight the feeling Jenna. Uncle Ernie!!!! P.S. Don't get me wrong Jenna, you make money and lots of it. But remember this, if you pick ten stocks on financial review, etc. If three go up to cover the lost you have on the other seven your good. I sure you know that.
