I think you are right. Once again it is my belief that Bloomberg controls the press here. Spooz has more sense than to kick a gift horse in the mouth by working against the wishes of Bloomberg.
Management is sagely behaving as though their chief interest is NOT share price. And between me and you and the wall, I've seen a lot of the fabled parabolic moves happen, and they are generally just a flash in the pan. Whether by deliberately or non-deliberately distributing the price rise over a spread of time, I maintain it will actually have the effect of building a more stable foundational price rise and chart base. I favor such a base-building exercise rather than facilitating a parabolic flash in the pan.
