What a bunch of cry babies....
This company is growing by over 20% and trading at a PE of less than 15.
A premier brand name.
Brighter future ahead.
And a 2.5 - 3.0 percent dividend.
You act like people are going to quit buying and selling stocks. Remember thay make money coming and going in bull and bear markets.
So if there is some manipulation in the stock it won't last forever. Stay for the ride of get the hell out now.
Don't bash the company or management because they are doing a fine job.
Right now it is being manipulated for whatever reason. I don't care. This will go higher in time.
There are a lot of $50 stocks that wish they could make $3.00+ in earnings for the year and grow by over 20%. Why don't you go buy one of them if you are unhappy here.
