DIGE, look, if this test becomes inclusive with the pap smear as a standard routine, then this is a multi-billion dollar company. And that seems to be what is brewing around right now. Makes perfect sense for the market makers to take advantage of a low volume day to scare the weebee jeebees out of some of the folks that were buying in on the news. The stock did NOT move up originally by day-traders. Today I watched these guys load up 10-20,000 shares at a time on puny looking bids. They might have walked it down to 10 bucks if I hadn't put my bid in at 11-3/8. I walked in right when it was at the bottom and they were raping it. I put up a bid for 1,000 shares and they all starting climbing right over me. There were plenty of shares being bought up at 12-5/8 late today. Some nice chunks too. I am so loaded up with it my head is spinning now. Probably shouldn't have done that, because they might play this little game again tomorrow, and I'll have a hard time stepping up. But I know exactly what I was watching. At least I think so. :o) There have been some real nice chunks of stock bought up over the past few days. I am not too worried. There is supposed to be an article done in the Washington Post about them next week also. By the way, I watched them do it to ECIN today also. Somebody needed to sell 10,000 shares and they dropped the bid right out from under that and that guy got screwed. Look at an intraday chart on that one. This stuff makes me sick, but it is how it works.
