From what I know they will have to raise their testing numbers to provide the demand the government wants the testing to keep going and test the most all the companies can...

And some big buyers as well... the gap between buy side and sell side has drastically increased in the las 90 minutes to the buy side... !!! It was almost even before noon.

If it keeps the momentum it has this morning... it could

Wow…. !!! if good news show up.. 101 M shares to cover... will push it close to 10.00 !!!

If we can get good news and projections from the company I think it could fly much higher than $3.00 - that's the risk for those who are in and out on the same day, news mostly comes before me pre-market hours open and no chance to jump in at the price from the day before.

But when you play with 100 or 200K of shares, a ten cent gain is a nice return for a one day investment... ! The stock suffered a big set back when Dr. Frost got into trouble with the SEC but that's all behind now. And Dr. Frost keeps buying...that's the good side now.

We're going thru a short attack this morning... maybe it will turn around by the afternoon... <sigh>

That means BioReference will get a few billions of those...? Wow! Tomorrow this stock should open a lot higher... !

doing what..? playing ping pong?

The stock has gained a lot for the past few days, just because a day that lost a few pennies it's not a matter of concern....

Power hour is here... maybe will see a turn around... and back to the HOD..? News is imminent now... IMO

Go back to play ping pong, maybe you can do better there than predicting stock prices... ! LOL

Right now it looks like it's heading down to the 2.00 level +/- 0.02

The stock has increased and almost doubled since its last low a few days ago… it may take a dip if no news comes from the company about the testing and looks like the shorts are out again at these levels.

It's about time the company releases some news about the testing... need their help to sustain higher stock prices... IMO

More than 100K at the ask, if it falls....?? Maybe the good old doctor may pinch in... !

Will see what the "whales" or "short covering" do at the last half hour of trading... someone is stacking the ask at 2.08 now

If it manages to break all these ask stacking thru 2.10, it will fly a lot faster and who knows what the closing price could be but... need to get those who shorted at 2.08-2.10 nervous... !!

Some who know will look into it...

The CEO of Rite Aid will be talking about their testing stations in a couple of minutes on Channel 359 Direct TV - Varney and Co

But… did not mention BioReference… they have 24 testing station open now

Trading pattern this morning very close as to how started on Monday morning before the bull run... ! Will see how it ends...

That's the way, no matter what company has any kind of testing, whether a 2 minute, 5 hour, one day, 3 days turnaround, everyone will get a piece of the big pie simply because the demand is "HUGE",.. !!!

Tomorrow $ 2.50 :)

Usually the last 30 minutes before closing the stock war begins.... will see.. !

No predictions today...?

Imagine what will it do when good news shows up...!

Feeling better now..?

Maybe more if good news are released... ~

Looks like it will be... the bid/ask at the close of the after hours market was 1.72 x 1.75 after closing at 1.70 during regular hours. Whoever was or still short may have a rude awaking Monday morning.... IMO

This is the time Dr Frost should come in and start to slap the ask... ! <sigh>

Just placed an order to sell at $20.00, don't know if it will happen but at least, they can't short my shares... LOL

Will see what happens on the last 30 minutes... ??? maybe some short covering to sleep comfortable during the weekend... !! LOL

They could also get real burned at a flip of a coin too... !

Under heavy attack by the shorts this morning but looks like it's holding there so far.. maybe some of them will look for an exit door mid afternoon just to be on the safe side if news comes in early Monday morning.. !!

Unless the company comes out with some good news I get a feeling we're deeply outnumbered by the shorts for the time being... IMO
