jbe re TDW sanguine, bullish i directed "worth less" at my writing, its value (less than zero) its acumen (none) very sorry

i apologize for any misapprehension that i caused

i'm v busy but want to get something up immediately as damage control

if anyone can explain how/whether previous short selling might be an asset to TDW's near-term performance, which is the point i was trying to convey, please post now. seriously, i'm afraid i've done something horrible when i meant to do precisely the opposite. i'd appreciate HELP from anyone who reads this aaaaaagggh sorry sorry sorry

re my last post "worth less"...never should have put it up...the disclaimer referred to the value of time spent reading the TDW "encouragement" i meant the post to contain...such encouragement consisted of the numbskull idea that short sellers of TDW --there were a lot of them -- would buy to cover this monday on any weakness TDW showed if earnings were bad...if earnings were good, i thought they might also buy monday to max. profits or minimize losses...the general trend of oil related issues seems to be up...were they not to act quickly, shorts seem liable to wind up on the wrong end of a nice rise in TDW's share price...pointed to the PDE and EVI as examples...PDE and EVI both heavily shorted into earnings...both made earnings...both soundly outperformed the OSX during friday's rally...drew shaky connection, or tried to, between extra strength shown by EVI and PDE and the need for shorts to buy back the shares they had earlier borrowed and already sold...
