The quality of DATA is the key and we wont know until we see it. Blowout data is what we prefer but we may get GOOD ENOUGH data. If we get the latter we have to ride out a SLOW climb as we wade through all the obstacles you named.....sell on the news players, shorts covering, different classes of investors taking their basis off at different levels. We will also face a tremendous amount of bashing and negative press from dark siders trying to claim GOOD ENOUGH is just short or something like that. That will create serious confusion among the neophytes who dont know what GOOD ENOUGH is.
