TO ALL; Studying the charts again last night I noticed something else. Going back through the 1 year chart I noticed that after a big down spike like the one that occurred on Wed. the stock moves up a little then moves sideways for from 3-6 days. Then there is a sharp move up. Often a price break. That would be a maximum time of until next Thrusday-Friday. If there is no sharp up move by then my guess is that the outlook is bearish for the stock, this quarter. I wouldn't wait for the earnings report. PHOTOMAN
