Bill, I guess I inferred from the phrase "are ripe for short-selling" that you did not already have a position in those stocks. Now that you say you do, here's approximately how well someone who took your advice on the stocks mentioned in the opening post would be doing today:

ACLY 17-->22
DDIM 30-->20
IMRS 24-->28
VIAS 52-->36
ZITL 24-->11

The only surprise here (i.e. something that "longs" would have put up some argument over) is VIAS. So, for all intents and purposes, you got 2 of 4. Not what I would call a stellar investment short or long currently, but one that six months from now will be up significantly, IMO.
