H&Q is well respected for Tech Stocks. This is a major plus for Visx.
One day the analysts and money managers will get it straight. H&Q rated Summit a hold, and Visx a strong buy. However, Summit goes up 15%, and Visx rises only 8%. I just don't get it. Why the 2 million shares exchanged on Summit today? (Is this short covering?)

Still, it was a very good showing by Visx's stock in a weak market. It must be pretty disappointing to the be short and have H&Q come out with a strong buy. By the way, (if I remember correctly) short interest was 1.869 million on Feb. 15th, down a little from 1.94 million on January 15th.
