High optimism in $RFMD going into earnings

$RFMD appears on our Top Ten Optimism list going into earnings.  That's usually a bad sign.  Unfortunately the stock is already down 4% today and more than that in the past week, so it's not a clear case of "buy on the rumor."  But we'll see soon enough.

Looks like our $GOOG short idea was right after all - I forgot to mention that in a "Buy on the Rumor" pattern it's often helpful to short at the open after the expected good news.  If the stock rises through mid-day, then time to exit.

Happy Investing!
