----------------------------
CNC seems to be stabilizing at ~ 8. Yesterday it was down to 7 7/8 for
Exactly 60 seconds with 35000 shares trade. At the speed of 35000shares
At 7 7/8 for only 1 minute a day it will take
64,000,000 divided by 35000 = 1800 days or about 5 years to cover.
Correct:
5 years to cover 64 mill Shorts at 7 7/8 for 1 minute a day!!
Incidentally the bid/ask at that time was a big 640 to 20.

who said
ever since conference call...There is less and less talk about bankruptcy (after Wendt said it aint happenin) and most of the negative analysts and posts are talking about reduced earnings next few qtrs or the possibility of an additional charge. It pleases me that the tone of the discussion has changed from "absolutely going bankrupt" to "Well the earnings are going to be less" Even JJC (longtime cnc bear) has changed his opinion due to recent events. Everyone should read the article (post 62453) It is surprisingly candid about his reasons for covering.
8 – 01 – 00 CNC High 8 3/16, low 7 7/8.
Vol coming down 3. mill.
Up 1/16
Volume is slowing from 7 mill the last several days,
