es1...your post is spot on. Scott or Merl could have...even should have thought through the PR which "targeted the 30th" KNOWING the history of so many other company events that were delayed or simply never came to pass.
Simply thinking through the issues of this supposed Chinese deal with governmental sign off/approval required, they should have known that there existed the real possibility that approval might extend beyond the 30th. It should have been left as an open ended timeline or perhaps pushed out through Q4. I think that would have left open the real possibility that the pps could have steadily climbed though the delay like you said.
But, this is Monday morning quarterbacking. But I agree with your position.
But, the screw up...if this is one, has opened the door for acquiring more in the 3's.
Chart looking like crap...until it doesn't...lol! I hereby declare the daily chart to be null and void and only the weekly chart is to be viewed for guidance. If weekly breaks down, we shall focus on the monthly!
