Given my recent position on GEM-T, i have been doing some technical analysis on its recent price and volume swings. I have a position in GEM-T @ .64/share and do not plan to sell until/after the much awaited press release. Looking at the daily and weekly charts i am watching the spread get narrower and narrower, i.e. Mon .64-.67, T-.64-.66....etc, fri .64-.65. Although its stuck in a sidewinder pattern last week, it has developed into a descending triangle which can only mean one of 2 things: 1) coiled spring breakout 2) coiled spread breakdown I am hoping for the former and not the later of course. So whoever has been aggressively buying this stock in the 60's must know something, and I hope that something is positive. I am holding and hoping, and if i 'guess' right, then i am money baby, yeah. Have a good weekend.

MCF.T---New Economy, Pavlov, Cash-It etc- your posts have a familiar ring to them- something like happened on the BII thread and most of the Stockhouse threads - where stocks with high momentum were pumped all the way up and down- Statements like " this stock is toast" ( Cash-it) and " you shorters sure had balls" make me nervous for this thread and for some of the 'new' investors who follow this threads integrity. Regarding MCF.T- The Globe reluctantly wrote four articles this week- mostly in response to the volume- non of which were supportive of the company or tried to recognise why it is a leader in this Can niche- typically of the G@B- If it's not 'old economy' Blue Chip, Commodities or Manufacture, they don't take the risk of supporting it- especially the internet and Ecom stocks- there are some great Can Ecom stocks- but all are underfunded and underpromoted- look at BII- it's now mostly owned by US investors- the Can press couldn't bail out fast enough and rubbished it all the way down to the 8 Your point about institutions bailing out for 'earnings dilution' is true for value plays, but is certainly not the main criteria for micro- cap stocks like MCF , -growth ,niche market share, revenue and alliances are worth more to the growth MF's- I'm in MCF 2/3 play and 1/3 sort of long.
