@Fez...i dont know about the time they post the PR..I m talking about technical indicators ...abt bad news they would probably do it when the stock is at its highs to lessen the damage caused by the bad news ...m jst gonna refer to things that I have posted here on sajha in the past for examples...

for CRM CFO selling shares when the stock was at its highs of the month>>>less damage

LNG ..abt a week ago i think..50MA line was abt to cross over 200 MA line..bullish as it can get(golden cross)...they put out a PR of india or some shit ....stock shot up and when it got to a point they put out another PR about dilution and it tanked

FSLR abt a month ago ..was on another thread i think..inverted bullish hammer ...next day put out a PR ...stock shot up

if u think abt it ...its jst things u notice that make sense...might sound like conspiracy theories but I've seen it happen numerous times to set it aside as conspiracy theories

yeah abt RIMM...stocks love round whole numbers(probably cuz of options strike prices) ...the reason i was talking abt low 13s was ..its another set of options with that strike prices of 13...BIG money
chartwise nothing bullish though
