- glad to see you on the DSTM boards

- DSTM had another positive announcemnet today; and another day where the stock was basically flat

- hopefully, the upcoming earnings w/ change things. Acutally, the earnings have always been good. So I don't really know what the Stree is looking for.

Thanks for the info. I'll stay tuned. Today's lack of market reaction to DSTM indicates to me an Oh Hum future.

TimeToMakeTheInvs (and all others),

I would welcome any opinions on why (or why not) right now would be an excellent time to buy more DSTM. With the price at $7.75 (within a point of the 52 week low) and the earnings for Q1 coming out in a few days (on 4/22), this seems like a very good buying opportunity.

My best guess is that they will at least meet, if not exceed, expectations here in April. I have reviewed several recent research reports, and they all seem to have a common theme:

InterState Johnson/3-10-99 update/Strong buy when it was $9.25
Hambrecht & Quest/2-7-99 update/Buy when stock was $11
Robinson-Humphrey/3-15-99 update/Short term target price of $20

Price targets seem to range between about $18 to $22. Recent stock buyback was good news. Improving balance sheet and reduction in DSO. Perhaps this is the quarter that helps to bring back attention to the company. Comments?
