Joe,

I have no inside knowledge but I would be very surprised if Oracle sales are flat for the next 2 quarters. The last quarter was a wake up call, and they will respond, especially after saying bold things to the public. Look for upside surprises.

As for shorts - they won't run for cover until they start getting hurt. Do you think a few shorts covered last Friday during a run up of 3 points? Have you thought that some of the move from 18 to 27 might have been some shorts covering. I know when I'm short a stock I constantly am concerned with an up spike, and if I'd been short ORCL in the high teens or low 20's I would have been gone!.

By the way I'm long ORCL, and expect low 30's on this run. I think a lot of this week is consolidation and wait and see who wins the short term tug of war.

regards,

Ed
