To Pancho and other short players.
Pancho,several months ago I read your idea on wdry and agreed that the stock price was based on hype. However my broker could not get the shares to short. I cant get myself to consider over priced stocks like aol,dell and yhoo because there is absolutely no logic that can be used to deal with the momentum players. So if a trader wishes to bypass low float and momentum issues, where to look? Recently I purchased puts on safeway even though there have been recent strong buy upgrades. My logic is that the company is at the high extreme evaluation for its industry. Also 29 million shares have been sold by insiders since December. Do you have any ideas on similar overpriced (relative to sector) stocks or have there been any ideas in this vein expressed on this thread? Any ideas appreciated.
