I have to step in here about this spread sheet stuff. First the guys that do the code repairs are not the same ones that do the spreadsheet running forecasting backlogs. Also if their spreadsheets are anything like I imagine they are, they are linked in from numerous sources and linked out to more.

I am a wrench bender in the Air Force and got promoted over the years to where I run a desk in an analysis flight crunching numbers all day. My office figures trends and forecasts stuff like what the KEA release is talking about. To do this, your spreadsheet links to someone elses spreadsheet across the command who links to 5 other people etc. We have the same problems so it is not that big of a deal. Take advantage of the short term weakness if you are a long term investor. If you are short term, then bite the bullet because yes we are about to get slammed this morning.

TA wise, there is a support line running back 10 years to where they missed earnings once and the 87 correction etc. It shows a drop to 17 area is not out of the question but I figure anything below 22 should be a pretty good deal.

I just heard on Bloomberg that Goldman upgraded Keane to a "trading buy" from "market perform".
