| To: pennyangel who wrote (32) | 9/28/2002 12:00:09 AM | | From: MakeMoney | | | | | Hmmmm .... Very large volume of shares trading the past couple of days. Makes me wonder just who is buying all of those shares of RASC stock. Could it possibly be the COMPANY itself? If so a company stock BUY BACK would be the absolutely best thing that could happen to this stock right now. It would also be a VERY smart thing for the company to be doing considering these presently extremely low stock prices for RASC shares. I'll be very interested to see what happens Monday morning. |

However, just in case there IS then whomever you are keep your eyes on the DAILY VOLUME of this stock because I really do believe that the COMPANY IS BUYING BACK IT'S OWN STOCK. Furthermore, if I am right then that is eventually going to make the stock price of RASC go up - WAAAAY UP!! |
