I've liked QWST for a long time. I held the stock from right after its IPO through its split then sold 1/2. I like the bandwidth companies. I'm wondering out loud - if like so many other companies QWST gets a run up in their stock before earnings then as earning are announced they sell off. I had AFCI at 9 and sold at 13.5 just before earnings it ran to 14.5 an now its 11+. I'm looking to pick up some more but don't want to chase the price. Didn't an analyst this week say QWST was overpriced? I did buy some GBLX at $19.00 as it reminded me of QWST initial run after its IPO. I'm going to wait until after earnings to decide if I want to add more. I might lose by waiting - but I've seen several stocks slide after earnings. So I will wait.
