I have already given my prediction: $48-52 without blow-out earnings or a blockbuster announcement - $53-58 on blow-out earnings (defined as 0.44 or more). In both cases I think there will be a pull-back. In the first case I think it will be to about $50 and the second to about $53. In the case of a blockbuster announcement there may be more of a spike. Since I don't know what the content of the announcement will be I can't quantify that. I am not so sure that it will be wildly exciting; it will probably be positive (otherwise they wouldn't be making it at this time) but it might be no more than a clarification of what they have already announced and an attempt to dampen down speculation. However, if there is news that excites the imagination of the trigger happy internet watchers, then you might get a turbo-driven exaggerated spike.
