If it gets above $5.03 this week, I would think it will reach $6 within about a month. JMO.

Chu:

Look at these numbers. Am I correct in my understanding that if they show a loss figure under retained earnings, that it can be applied against future positive income until it runs out?

They paid no income tax on the $1.3m they earned this quarter. Is that because of the retained earnings they are showing on their balance sheet?
