7/22/2004 4:15:00 PM - Gapped down and violated the upward trend line discussed in previous reports. Reversed near 200 DMA and support at Dec & Feb highs (prior resistance) to close up from earlier lows. Second loss on heavy volume out of last 5 sessions increases concern.

5/5/2004 4:15:00 PM - Ended the session with a slight gain on less than average volume. Some may see a bullish type of pennant pattern forming as volume overall cools. Above support at its 50 DMA. Retail sales numbers due out tonight/tomorrow.
