Apparently a difference of opinion with in the Japanese consortium, the remaining 3 apparently have an idea they want to play out. he question is to what degree will they play out and how committed they are to whatever idea they have.

IMHO the MM activity is not directly related to the microcosm of angst we`re feeling here at Agoracom or even RB. My feeling is they`re trying to get their books right, and out from under a share shortage. Maybe they peek at things here to get a temperature check of attitudes so they can pick the best tactic to recover shares.

Gone are the days of thinking they`re building inventory in anticipation of something...

If the Jenkins decision is negative (I just can`t get my hope up on this) we`ll see some SP letdown that the MM`s with take advantage of to accumulate shares.

If that does happen this way, I can only hope TPL/PTSC will counter with something to offset the impact, and a recent positive they can point to at the upcoming SHM.

I keep telling myself I shouldn`t be disappointed we are sitting here at $1.40...these are good times.
