Thank you Messers. Miller & Gardener,

First off thank you both for your thoughts. I do appreciate the insight. I am not yet convinced of ABOV's long-term potential because I do not have a clear picture of their competitive position, pricing power, as well as the forces that effect consumer demand for co-location, peering etc..

I was kind of disappointed in ABOV price action today. To close down on one hand was IMO weak given the solid open. On the other hand , many times a double bottom is required to clear out the last remaining weak hands. There should be good support at the 78-80 range so the downside risk from hear appears to be minimal. The way I see it if the stock were to tank from hear (down to 60 lets say) I will average down. There simply can't be that much downside left. I do expect a rally in the techs in the AM. The concern I have is when was the last time you saw MSFT act this poorly. I did take today's markit actin as an opportunity to buy more SFE. I saw many net stocks down on low volume, which is usually a bullish sign. I will keep buying if they take the nets lower.

Dave

Mr Gardner,
Is this company still
'above' the Net,
At what point,
is it
'below' the net?
will it 'bounce' off the net?
will it 'bust' through the net?
are these guys tightrope walkers?

MrG, MrM denies being an employee of the company. Do you have proof to the contrary?....Rick

<Mr Miller has been most informative sharing information about the company and industry in general but if I'm not mistaken he is also an ABOV employee ( who probably has his stock option about about $10 bucks a share ). >
