John, the reasons I was short this stock, (past tense) are as follows:

Firstly it squeezed from 12.5 or so to as high at 17 3/4. I shorted the stock heavily between 16.00 and 17.00.

When doing further research I came across the quote.com link research PR. It clearly states that the company was going to EARN the amounts you pointed out were actual projected losses. I posted the URL for everyone to read.

As you correctly pointed out, the losses are in line with analysts estimates. In fact they would have to lose more than 1.00 per share in the fourth quarter to miss the analysts estimates.

Good luck with it John, hope you make a million

Best of regards

Jim.
