LOL!!! Strrrrroooke, strooooke!! Don't cha just hate it when your mask is ripped to shreds and backpedaling becomes necessary? HEH!

Anyway, on your compadre Larry B's chuckle meter I gotta give WM a 10 for exposures sake, and your retort...why a 10, too!! Why?

1. "when people ask for suggestions of stock that are "breaking down" I se no reasons why I should not tell them what I have observed" Good, I see, kind'a sort'a spamming as it applies to the shortie community, eh? The reason I say this is if I understand this properly, the comment was on a different thread, one ostensibly dedicated to the fine, and oft used art of discovering good short candidates, couched in a subdued thread entitled "Floorless, etc.." HEH! Yet your comments here, until WM provided the obvious, were more...uh....abstract and philosophical. ;-) I rate your response an 8 chuckles.

2. "If they indeed sell short now, they'll have to cover later and that will provide support for the stock." Come again? Still trying to pander to the long community? Come on Zeev, stand tall, be proud of the shortie tactics you now clearly at this time represent. No harm in standing strongly behind your position. ;-) I rate this comment a rollicking, uproarious 10 chuckles for the logic it represents and the "trying to have it both ways" it implies!

3. "I stated on a thread(MVIS) that it is an excellent candidate for shorting at $28. They forgot that only two months before when the same MVIS was at $16, I said it is a pretty sure bet to go well above $24." Another laugher. Why? Well, you stated that you stated ON THE MVIS THREAD!! HEH! Yah, well, maybe, but you've made no such clear statement to that effect here on VLNC, until WM discovered it ELSEWHERE! You've been busy covering yerself in generalities. I give this a screaming seven chuckles for the scramble in covering yerself the comment represents!

Bottom Line? To my mind you've just confirmed a pet theory of mine regarding VLNC, C.C., and the currently wave of shorting I've observed during the trading day. This pet theory revolves around the idea that even if C.C. isn't necessarily directly responsible for submarining the bid on a daily basis, there resides in the marketplace a community of individuals who spend a goodly portion of their day researching for potential floor-less candidates(shortie variation of d.d.) and then, when the opportunity presents itself, marshalling and rallying themselves together to hit the most probable candidates. I believe your comments are "fish in a barrel". Nothing wrong with it, we've all got to make a living, but this tactic works best when it remains hidden, no? ;-)

So now the game is in the open,"afoot" so to speak. Me thinks it's gonna be very interesting over the next few weeks. Good luck with your position. Meanwhile....about those p.o.'s.....

Regards!

John~
