Holding steady, good signs in a bogus market atm.

[ForzaFerrari]

30.68 close after 7th trading day. Nice end to the week. EXPE is solid right now, and yes, I called this from $24 :D Let's see how she does next week.

[ForzaFerrari]

Ha, nice catch, never noticed that before but sure looks like that has been the case in the past. I really don't know what will happen so I'll just throw a guess that we will see $33-$35 highs, and then it will have to consolidate back down to the $30 range. As right as I have been with this stock so far, I am really just guessing and going off hunches so put no value in my words. But we are trading at new highs every day, are trading above averages, and at this point in time, pretty much everything about the stock is bullish, so it can only be a good thing. Some sell at this time, and some buy, that's stocks for ya :)

Cheers

[WORTHWHILE]

EXPE has in past typically peaked in Oct in years past... With the spin out coming in Oct, are we gonna climb till then? And how high does it go? What are the thoughts of the next 60-90 days?

[ForzaFerrari]

$29.93 close today, gee, what a surprise lmao, NOT! See you above $30 tomorrow.

[ForzaFerrari]

29.54 ? 0.55 (1.90%)
Volume: 2,273,078 @ 12:30:00 AM ET

[ForzaFerrari]

Told yall, totally called this one, will close over $30 next week, mark it!

[ForzaFerrari]

And wtf did I say just hours ago!?!?!?!

OK fine, I won't count today, as $28.99, is not $29.

[ForzaFerrari]

I am not saying it will break out to $50 mind you, I just am telling you that the price will close above $29, one or more of the next 7 trading days.

[ForzaFerrari]

And no I am not kidding, and no, it's not an easy prediction, as you can see by the constant test, and then beat down @ $29. Actually based on how it can't get past, one would think it will drop back down. But no, just watch, then you will understand that sometimes, I can just tell.

[ForzaFerrari]

Alright, it's ready, will break out past $29 last two days of this week or by the end of next week. I can tell, mark my effin words!

[ForzaFerrari]

Strange day... Anyone following this? lol

[ForzaFerrari]

Can't seem to break out past $29, but still (just barely) holding above the 20 day, which is bullish to me! Looking for a breakout past $30 if the market heads upwards next week or two.

Expedia Media Announces 3:1 Marketing Program Match for Disaster-Affected States
Expedia (NASDAQ:EXPE)
Intraday Stock Chart

Today : Tuesday 7 June 2011
Click Here for more Expedia Charts.

Expedia® Media Solutions, the advertising sales division of global online travel leader Expedia, Inc., today announced a 3:1 media match offer for recent disaster-affected states. The offer is designed to help these nine states reach travel shoppers on Expedia, Inc. sites to drive visibility and, ultimately, tourism to their destinations.

The offer provides a three to one media dollar match for all advertising on Expedia, Inc. websites to allow destination marketing organizations (DMOs) and tourism boards in affected states broader marketing resources and promotional capabilities to reach their potential audience. This offer is being extended to Alabama, Arkansas, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, Tennessee and Massachusetts, and is good for all media sold and run during June through September of this year.

"This offer allows our destination and supply partners to showcase the vacation spots across these states that are welcoming back visitors or haven't been touched by the disasters," said Noah Tratt, vice president, Expedia Media Solutions. "Our hope is that with the increased visibility of these destinations within Expedia's sites, consumers will consider these areas for their summer and fall travel, thus reducing the economic impact to these areas."

Last year, Expedia Media Solutions extended a similar offer to states affected by the Gulf Coast oil spill, and matched campaign spends for several DMOs. The New Orleans Convention and Visitor's Bureau (CVB) is one organization that took part in this 3:1 offer with a multifaceted campaign on Expedia.com® featuring a variety of visually striking ads. The one-month campaign doubled unaided brand awareness of New Orleans as a destination and successfully lifted New Orleans higher in travelers' consideration set, with consideration of New Orleans as a possible destination increasing from 31 percent to 41 percent.

Eligible destinations interested in participating may contact Expedia Media at [e-mail] to inquire.

Expedia.co.uk, the UK's leading online booking site, today unveils the world's best hotels, according to its customers. Insider Select 2011 is a global programme that identifies the top hotels based on quality and value, from Expedia's portfolio of 135,000 hotels worldwide.

The programme reflects Expedia's commitment to helping customers make the right travel choices and sharing their experience with others, with Insider Select rankings primarily determined by customer reviews. Every year, more than 500,000 reviews are submitted by travellers around the world, verified and analysed to compile the winners of Insider Select.

USA earns its stars

The US, with its reputation for world class customer service, not only tops the list but also features heavily in the top ten, with four of the top ten hotels located across the pond. The number one hotel in the world is Cedarbrook Lodge in Seattle, thanks to its unparalleled customer service and stunning scenery.

The great Italian job

The US' main competitor this year is Italy, which has three hotels in the top ten. All three hotels have an unbeatable 100% recommendation rate from reviewers, showing that Italians deserve to be known as much for their brilliant customer service as their good food and excellent weather.

Italy has experienced a renaissance recently, with a 16% year on year increase in hotel bookings from UK travellers, according to Expedia.co.uk site data. With its gastronomy, art and culture, Italy is a consistently popular destination, but the release of films such as Eat, Pray, Love, and the recent beatification of the Pope in Rome, have certainly attracted more tourists to the country. With some of the world's best hotels, Italy is setting the standard for other European nations to live up to. Top Italian destinations visited by Brits are Rome, Venice, Campania, Milan and Florence.

"The good weather and wealth of things to do and see ensure that Italy remains a popular destination. Travellers can use the activities section on Expedia.co.uk to take advantage of discounts, guided tours and skip the queues at popular attractions like the Vatican or the Uffizi. Whether you prefer to explore the ghosts and legends of Venice, take advantage of Italian style at bargain prices at the outlet shops in Rome, or sample the best Italian wines, Italy offers something for all tastes. Plus, the high quality of service keeps people coming back to Italian hotels time and again," says Mel Stonier, Expedia.co.uk.

"When it comes to hotels, luxury is a fairly easy thing to measure, and many travel companies do so. What's more difficult to measure is value – those hotels that regularly deliver a quality experience for a reasonable cost. Insider Select does exactly that and features the world's top hotels for value, setting it apart from any other industry league table. Every year, hundreds of thousands of travellers take the time to share their experiences with Expedia and with one another. The 2011 Insider Select List reflects that insight", continues Stonier.

The Insider Select programme launched in 2007 and the 2011 winners' requirements have been more rigorous than ever. This year each hotel required more reviews per property and higher scores per review to make the list. The 2011 winners are the top 500 hotels globally. Hotels that made the 2011 list received an average review score of 4.7 out of 5 and a 98.2% recommendation rate, demonstrating the standard of excellence required to make this prestigious list.

Three components are considered when ranking a hotel:

* Customer Reviews: Reviews are the most powerful testament to the quality of a hotel. Travellers submit reviews after completing a stay at a given hotel. Expedia verifies that each review is legitimate. The company has a comprehensive method of identifying fake reviews. More than 500,000 hotel reviews were analysed over the past year.
* Market Manager Input: Expedia employs hundreds of market managers in cities across the globe. These market managers work closely with Expedia's hotel partners to maximise the value the hotels get from Expedia's global online travel marketplace.
* Value Rating; Expedia compares each property's average daily rates to those of similar properties, to assess the hotel's relative value. This makes it easy for busy travellers to identify hotels that deliver an excellent experience at a comparatively good price. Hotels that routinely exceed customer expectations – in their customer service, amenities, competitive pricing and more – see that emphasis reflected in their rankings.

Broke above the 200 day which is great, next has to bust the $26 mark, then next move should be to $27.50, if it can keep above the 200 day.

Too bad I didn't notice was trading close to $20 in March, would have picked up a boat load.

[ForzaFerrari]

Couldn't break above the 200 day sitting at $24.67, but looking good here, nice day so far, could retest 200 day.

Just transferred some dough to broker, money will be avail early next week so I can start grabbing some shares here. Wonder will I still be a loner on this board or would anyone like to join me? :)
