Dale, 15 of the 25 stocks on yesterday's low RS/neg cash flow screen list are already down by more than 10% from Tuesday's close, as of right now. The Russell 2000 is down 7% over the same period. So it looks like they are continuing to out-fall small caps as a whole in the present market. I looked at some of the stocks you picked from the list: ATEN is the operator of cable tv in Poland. I had researched them months ago and forgotten about them. I think I wasn't able to borrow shares then ... same thing today. Terrible cash flow, and who wants something in a developing market now? ENER is developing electric car batterties. Bad cash/cashflow situation, late in filing 10k due to lack of data for audit according to recent NT-10k. MCAR was OTC:BB until recently and by all rights that's where it belongs. It's operations are tiny: if I got this right, it operates one medical clinic (I think in Alberta) which is an itty bitty business considering the $35 M market cap. There is a recent SB-2 with lots of shares for sale. The stock was a shell until recently -- I noticed there was a 1200:1 reverse split a couple of years ago. I shorted this today.
