I bought back in on Thursday. I'm looking for this to run back to 1.50+ very soon. It bottomed at 1.15 on Thursday afternoon.
I'm having a little competition in my portfolio between CHTR and MCZ as to which one will get to 1.50 first. They're neck and neck so far. Posts: 10754 | From: The Land Of The Giants | Registered: Feb 2005

Being Batman David M. Ewalt, 06.20.05, 7:28 PM ET
NEW YORK - Dark clouds have gathered over Gotham. Crime is rampant, despair is widespread and no one is safe. Who will rescue the metropolis from itself, fight the forces of evil and save the good people of the city?
Why don't you do it?
Plenty of us would love to fight for truth and justice--if only we had magic powers or mutant genes. We all love superheroes. Last weekend, Batman Begins was the No. 1 film in the U.S., pulling in $71.1 million over its first five days. The Batman movie franchise is also one of the most lucrative of all time, with five movies (not counting Batman Begins) grossing nearly $1 billion.
This should help MCZ sales for the new Batman products that came out last Friday.

Yep, saw that last night. Could be a good time to add more to my position shortly?
When the filing finally does come out, the stock will probably take off.

If you are not already in this stock it is not too late. I am very confident in stable increases through the release of the PS3 in the Spring. This stock will reach new highs over the next 2-5 months and maybe sooner.

Februaray should be a great month. I wish I didn't have to wait that long. LOL. This is a good long(2-3 month hold) Looking to break through 2.00 come February according to the chart and as the trend holds up. MACD looks bullish.
Sales for the new XBOX controllers will be through the roof as well with Christmas coming. Vendors will have a difficult time keeping them in stock. I'll be keeping track of the stock in the local WalMart's, Toys R Us, Target, Kmart, Gamestop, Electronics Boutique, etc....
The first 10K of 2006 should be some eye candy for us.
