1997 Summary Post

Folks, we had a very good 1997. I think many of the short sellers on this thread made a lot of money in 1997. Below are some of our successes.

The original four picks:

CTXS
original price 39
target 20
low 9 3/4
current price 76 (we covered but are shorting again for 1998)

RMDY
original price 53
target 30
low 20 5/8
current price 21 (we are out of this one)

VIAS
original price 47
target 10
low 27 1/4
current price 42 1/4 (we covered but are shorting again for 1998)

ZITL
original price 44
target 5
low 9
current price 9 1/2 (we are still holding this short!)

And many other stocks were discussed and shorted successfully during the year. Some of these were:

vvus ddim ctn avnt and insgy ctys prst msft intc nscp

And we have had major disappointments in dell, yhoo and aol, shorts whose time will come in 1998.

Happy New Year
Roger
