Hi Hong,

I'll add another item to your list. That is, OSTE has a history of trading in
volatile swings. Take a look at a weekly price chart and you'll see what I mean.
While this doesn't "explain" the action, it does give it greater context.

     Here are the speculation to selloff OSTE:
   1. market went down
   2.  taking profit
   3.  selected wrong button.  Instead select a Buy button, the guy from big
firm pressed sale button.  Once that happens, all market orders set last night
are executed. Then sell short enter the game.  And then that triggers further
huge selloff.
  4.   reading earning release news is not enough,  one needs to read whole SEC
filling.

     which one is right reason.  First one is not right because the market was
up, at least not down before 10 am.  The second one is not either because
usually taking profit will take place AFTER price surge up, not from support
line.  Right?

     And ... reason is.....?

     That reminds me that one thing is certain that the market is uncertain,
      -Hong

         On 7/18 Duane reported TBL plunged $8 on no-bad-news earning
release.  Today OSTE plunged 23% on 50% surprise of earning release.
 The estimates is $0.10 vs. $0.02 year ago.  The actual earning is
$0.15/share.

Why price drop?   The fundies and TA are all great.    Your experience
