Oh, no, I'm still in all the way .. very nice to be in the money and well in the black with 5 months to expiration. I'm looking for at least a triple on this, and I expect to see it possibly prior to the shareholders' meeting .. analyst upgrades, upward revision on earnings going forward and prospect of common trading in mid-forties prior to shareholders meeting would certainly be an incentive for the split to be approved .. would be a very tempting opportunity to take some profits and go into the common for the longer term. Technicals are very bullish and at last are confirming the strong funfamentals in this issue, just crossing the MACD line and two consecutive gaps on the upside. I do expect a modest pullback in the interim, but not enough for me to pull the plug.

Best sues APC????? Just read this press release, does anyone know what its about? Why would Best be suing over technology issues, their product (technology wise) is quite different than APC's? Could this be what been keeping that stock right below the $20 point? Steve... American Power says sued by General Signal WEST KINGSTON, R.I., Aug 25 (Reuters) - American Power Conversion Corp. said Wednesday General Signal Power Systems Inc., parent company of Best Power, has sued American Power alleging patent infringement and false advertising. The company said it continue to remain comfortable with the $0.93 per share full-year profit expectation it set forth in its second quarter earnings release. The company said it does not expect the ultimate disposition of the case to have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position or results of operations and liquidity. American Power said the lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin, seeks unspecified damages and injunctive relief. ``We are currently reviewing this lawsuit and intend to vigorously defend against it,' Rodger Dowdell Jr., American Power's president and chief executive, said in a statement. American Power said it recently settled a case with Best Power over a contractual relationship between Best and American Power subsidiary Silcon Power Electronics A/S. The terms of the settlement, which were favorable to American Power, included Best paying monetary compensation, American Power said. No further details were given. American Power Conversion makes products such as surge suppressors, uninterruptible power supplies and power conditioning equipment and related software.
