You want research from a short? Here it is.

Pros/Cons of hedgefunds being long or short. posted in two separate messages.

Pros of long position...
1. Zicam does work. Earlier studies have been verified by a reputable science journal. I use it myself with similar results. Zicam appears to me more widely known this year and will have increased sales. This is a pro for the longs.
2. Zicam patent is infalable to knock-offs.
As I said earlier the knock-offs are just trying to make quick money while they are in the being legally removed from the shelves. The little minded short posters here are talking nonsense. They are a gnat. Outside opinion on the qgly issue favors GUMM's patent stands complete. All patent issues are in favor of the longs.
3. Management. Past management kept the company a float. I don't know how they did it, but they did. The new management with decades of business experience is in favor of the longs.
4. Intellectual property. Its the stuff functional gum is made of. GUMM's researchers have proven themselves to be the leading authorities on specialty chewing gums. This has
value for the longs.
5. Balance sheet. No debt, some cash. Few shares outstanding.
6. Insider trading. The ceo did sell shares to pay for more shares giving him a net gain of 60,000 more shares. Favoring the longs again.
7. Plant expansion. They are not utilizing current capacity and yet expand like they are
ready to start graveyard shifts producing 24/7.
