Comments:

Lucky on this one. Stock tanked on December 1 on false rumor. Could not exercise get-price. Applying our rule to hold a tanked stock for a few days to allow some rebound, the stock price returned to its pre-tank price on December 3 and continued to rise when rumor was found false. Called.
