Ignore Briefing.com... I gave up my subscription to Briefing.com last year. Reason? Irrational or just silly commentary with absolutely no predictive power. I became impressed with briefing.com about two years ago when they accurately predicted which y2k companies would succeed and which would fail. I subscribed at that point. For the next two years, one prediction after another has flopped. They even stuck to their y2k predictions too long, riding the wave straight into the gorund. Want an example? B.C. consistently hyped PLAT, recommending it at its high! If it weren't for the CA buyout, PLAT would have become a penny stock. Fortunately, I did not put my money into a single recommendation. B.C. is looking at the BYND news in strictly dollar and cents terms. That's fine. But the implications excape them: BYND has (a) ability to land huge contracts, (b) backing of MSFT and (c) a big foot in the door of government. DocStone
