Your right, MSFT could give a rats ass wether Paul Allen owns 5%, or 50% for that matter, business is business. Therefore anyone suggesting that MSFT back-off or rethink their strategy because of Paul Allen should probably rethink their own strategy.
I also think the shorts should rethink their strategy.
Priceline.com (Nasdaq: PCLN) said that it set a single-day sales record for leisure airline tickets yesterday, selling more than 10,000 tickets in 24 hours. The new single-day record compares to an average of 1,000 tickets a day that were sold by priceline.com at the beginning of the year.
10,000 tickets in 24 hours!! Quite allot of tickets, and that's just the beginning.
There is currently 4,923,497 shares short, that's 45% of the float!
I currently do not have a position in PCLN, but will start accumulating on Monday, when this stock turns it will be like a runaway train, and I definitely want to be on board... |
