>>I just ran my stochastic and diastolic models, using advanced technical analyses, on Novell for the period of January 1996 to present.>>
It's nice of you to share with us the foundation of your short postion in Novell over the coming year. "stochastic and diastolic models, using advanced technical analyses...." I love it!! What a hoot! There are so many people following these things that we have layers of people chasing their tails trying to outguess the crowd. My 17 years on the Street trading futures, options and stocks says ALL this is garbage. The Street knows that trading is tough enough when you have the edge. Margins on trading have collapsed over the past year and more dealers are getting out of the game. The only thing that makes it better than a coin toss would be a huge amount of capital combined with a very low expense structure that allows on to diversify in many positions short and long in massive volumes. The markets are being driven more and more by hedge funds that live on volatility. Beyond the noise within a day to a few weeks the real money is being made the old fashion way. Buying and holding, period. But its getting tougher for the noise is getting louder.
>>The model predicted that Novell will be at 5 7/8 by the end of the year.>>
"The model??" Who's model. What model?? If you are going to insert this crap, at least have the respect to provide more than just a tease line. If this is how you've been playing Novell, I can see how you were thrown out of your short position in August. And I can see why you still have yet to come clean with this thread on when you got short again. This is the third time I have have asked you "Mr. Short and Proud..." If you really had the balls you'd wouldn't avoid this question. My guess is this has been simple, fun entertainment for you, period.
>>The only other possibility is for more takeover rumors to push the stock slightly higher, but the rumors probably would lack credibility.>>
Oh, such a prophet!! What wisdom! Please elaborate....
>>For the record, John Young is my financial hero. If he ever leaves Novell and finds another host, I will immediately short them too. I like Schmidt, too, but more because he is just clueless and rather dim witted as a mediocre CEO.>>
Gosh, Alphie, couldn't you go much deeper than that. Financial hero? A dimwitted and mediocre CEO?? Please, lets get down to business and educate us on these points.
>>BTW, my naked December 10 calls expired worthless, adding a few more dollars to the Christmas shopping basket. I've more than doubled my money on the naked May 10 calls too. I love this company!!!!>>
Bottom line Alphonse IMHO: You are a fraud. Have fun playing your games. Asian devaluations will lead to ultra cheap RAM and component pricing which will only accelerate the worlds move away from the MS platform into an explosively expanding Global Network which will fuel future growth for Novell.
Ever hear of Internet II?? It's a project that will free up 99% of the Internet traffic within a short period of time. Novell is working on this along with many other companies. Cheap RAM will move the world away from the FAT client. Wonder why semiconductor cos. rallied last week. We've just entered a fantastic new chapter in technology. Asian devaluations just gave the entire world a mega peace dividend the likes of which will propell the Internet into the Global platform it was destined to be - only 5 years earlier than most were expecting.
Novell will benefit from this in a big way as the Global Network takes on this added power and Java continues to gather strength. I don't have the time to add anyting more, but I would like to wish everyone Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas.
And for you Alphonse, all I can say is, good luck....
Respectfully,
Long and humble! |
