I agree 100% with David's video. Kodak's service to our company is terrible.  They continue to try to cut cost but at the price of customer service and supply problems. They were late to the digital age and are still behind the eight ball so to speak. IMHO.

You are welcome shaker.....hold your shares through March 2008 and you will triple your investment. The holiday season is coming up and BRLC will literally explode

I certainly hope so ;D.  Well, I should have done a better job of buying this stock, I should have known that with friday profit taking it would close that gap.  Oh well, I think this is still a very good stock with a bright future.

Have to see how it closes today, but its very bullish & volume double of average.
Will see monday morning.

Well, up another 9.7% closed at $42.51, you are right this is very bullish.  Monday will probably let us know which way it wants to go, have a great weekend.

;D

I've been in and out of this stock for some time now and beware
it usually closes its gaps within a short term.
Nevertheless I'm staying invested due to the long term upward trend

Jorgegr,
   I just got stopped out at $41.05, I guess I had a very aggressive stop, I just wanted to protect my 20% gain in 17 days.  I just got back into the stock a few minutes ago, and wanted to know what to expect from this stock since you have been in and out of this stock for a while.  Thanks in advance.

Meanwhile, China has become the world's largest consumer of copper due to its own infrastructure needs and its role as an exporter of products like air conditioners and auto-motor parts. Last year, the country used 4 million metric tons of copper, or about 22% of the world's supply. That's up from 10% a decade ago, according to industry estimates. See more on China and copper.
"This is an important step in our strategic growth outside China," said Yaqing Xiao, Chinalco president, in a statement released by Peru Copper.
"We look forward to identifying investment opportunities in Peru and around the world," he said.
