I read this as either distribution since October, or congestion along the way. If we 
break 1000 on the SP, and the floor guys will certainly love to do this, and then 
hold it for three minutes, floor saying is that chances are 1000 will hold for 3 
hours, and then three days. I'd bet for 3 weeks minimum up, next, this move is too 
complex to be a reversal. BUT THAT IS ONLY AN OPINION.
