Long: Hmmmm....well, nothing about the press release itself seems out of sorts. It pretty much recaps what all know about LUMM, eh? I will say they leave out some of the positives(MOLX buying the common on the open market...CSCO joining the board, etc..), basically slanting it the way they need to effect a certain...uh....reaction. ;-)

It looks like this Preston, despite a VERY nefarious history, is engaging in what shortsters do when they find an equity that's gone waaaay beyond it's upper end. That is, issuing a statement that basically cuts the legs out from under the speculative momentum LUMM had been enjoying. This, plus, it now becomes an excellent excuse for those looking at massive paper profits to lock in some of that gain. So it goes...

LUMM's STILL an interesting speculation. One which bears close watching into 2000 and beyond. My guess is we'll see it bounce this afternoon, since those who may have shorted this thing in the mid $30's are now looking at a sweeeet profit. Let's see if LUMM can stabilize, and find its legs, here around ~$21 or so(anyone tempted to play a traders bounce?).....

Regards!
