MONDAY MORNING....SECONDARY OFFERING....OR IS IT?..AND ITS NEW ALL TIME HIGH TERRITORY TO START THANKSGIVING WEEK!
Its Monday morning of Thanksgiving week which effectively means 3 days of trading spread out over 4 as we are closed Thursday. Its a quiet news morning in this group with not much happening so far.

I think this could be a buying opportunity because again no dilution here. And once the news is absorbed we could see this one finally start moving. Watch support levels at the moving averages . They could serve as good entry points and laddering in is always a good way to
