Heck that was a nice trade from 13 to 17 for me anyway. I thought that spike up was because of stronger earnings, this was a surprise drop consider. I am not sure I trust these guys enough to get back in to the stock. Any opinions?

This is pretty confusing. I believe that Gill JUST THIS WEEK stated to analysts that he is comfortable w/ current estimates. Yet making an explicit indication that the quarter may be back-end loaded is contradictory. It is an implicit warning that the company may miss. Gill must find that managing the company with multiple personality syndrome is fairly challenging. Or perhaps he is not aware of the other(s) inhabiting his body.

Looking again at the Dow article, it's a description of why Fore dropped today. I think the acquisition (particularly with so little information as it was privately held) and the surprise of more share dilution explains today better. At the conference, he already did some cautioning about not expecting too much from this quarter, but that the "exponential" rise would start in June. Did anyone see a quotation of Gill's about a back-end loaded quarter today? If not, I think the article's writer didn't do his/her homework and was just assuming Gill's earlier comments were the cause of the drop.
