It was astonishing that with a 50% drop in sales for the quarter, NC only lost a few million $. The loss might have been 10 times worse! I concluded that fork lift truck sales would take YEARS to get back to the 20,000 trucks / quarter level: therefore, my sentiment about the next 2 years share price was negative. "The Market", as usual took an opposite course: share price increased $ 10 in 2 days. Mr. Market still astounds me: I guess I'll never correctly predict future market trends.
