Jim, $24 is the rising monthly support on semi-log on MRK out of the 1990 and 1993 lows. I doubt that gives on the first touch. The same line on a linear scale is a shade under $22, so I agree with the targets Zeev has on MRK: <A HREF="http://stockcharts.com/def/servlet/SC.web?c=MRK,uu[h,a]maclyiay[d19850105,20041105][pc9!c13!c20!d20,2!h.02,.20!c50!c100!c200!c150!b200!c125!c175!f][vc60][iLa4,9,5!Lh5,5!Li10,10!Lp14,3,3!Ll4!Lo14!Lb14!Le5,10,1!Lh89,34!Lh45,17!Li180,68!Lp3,2,2]&pref=G" target="_blank">http://stockcharts.com/def/servlet/SC.web?c=MRK,uu[h,a]maclyiay[d19850105,20041105][pc9!c13!c20!d20,...</A>
