For a company like this -- a big drop in the share price is probably a "gift" and will allow a nice entry point to a stock that should continue to do very well. They signaled nothing wrong.. sales are good... profit is good...the products are fabulous.

But this is a glimpse into the market when stocks are priced to perfection... if everything isn't PERFECT - they get a huge haircuts in a hurry.

If I had a million in cash today - I'd be a buyer. But since I just bought into another apartment complex... I'll just sit on my hands and watch.
Here's one of the replies regarding priced to perfection, Mike.
