<<After the upgrade I expect other Brokerages to come out and Upgrade this sleeper soon, but why the decrease today????>> I think they've had time to digest the conference call and the earnings report. They might be taking a "show me" attitude..i.e looking for signs that things will happen as the management outlined. I think within a few weeks things will start happening and the we will be rewarded. But patience is needed especially until the next earnings report in mid-June.
