Thanks Meirluc,
I think we've come a long way since the quarterly, but no telling just how much is holding up hard lock. I have almost no doubt that soft lock was done some time ago. I think today's weakness provided a tremendous buying opportunity and I gather several longs have taken advantage of it. Perhaps some shorts used it to get out of their short positions as well.
I don't know how some people are suggesting specific dates for data lock and/or TLD, I'd be surprised if we don't have both occur prior to Labor Day, but beyond that I'd hate to guess.
