I logged on with the intention fo posting about stock performance and the potential to exceed $2.00/share in the current market. I just happened to pick on your post to read first, which was delightful to say the least, even working with a lower S&P ratio.

My example is GSS which has been all over the place for years struggling with low quality but high potential in Africa. It dropped like a stone with US options trader support to about $0.50 or less last November, but has put in a spectacular RHS and now over $2.50/share. Which means ....it can be done if the environment, opportunity ,and interest is right, in no special order!
