Look for a NASDAQ rally tomorrow (unless other companies spoil the party).

This was past performance though and everyone is worried about the future. I hope you're right.  Smiley

It opened at 35 for a huge gain, and it's sold off to 33.53 currently. Up only .38 now.

Where do I sign up for a 1% per day return on my investments?  Grin

But I tend to agree, 1% isn't a huge bump. Like I said, Unless you drop a big surprise number in your earnings release what you did last quarter isn't so important these days as how you see the future.

 Huh?

35.00 - 33.25 = 1.75
1.75/33.25 = 5.26%

A 1% increase compounded daily for approximately 250 trading days per year is actually:

1.01 ^ 250 = 12.03 = 1203%

I'll take that anyday! Hump

Well, MSFT is now up a nickel. They had a 4+% gain yesterday, and they announced earnings after the Market closed yesterday. It's so odd that the Market always knows even before the company makes the announcement. It's almost as if the news was leaked by insiders, but we know that can't be happening since it would be illegal.  Roll Eyes
