Wolfgang, I have a veerrryyy low attention span. This is my reason for entering a stock on my "watch list"...(so I don't forget about it.
At present, Yahoo has a buy signal, but it appears to be trending down. I feel, that this stock at some point, has the potential for a nice short sale... when, I don't know. With 45% of its outstanding shares presently shorted, I am not alone. Here is report on Yahoo.
Good luck and congratulations on a nice profit.
