My timing continues to need some work. I shorted VISX a while ago around 50 (before the split), and watched painfully as it went to 70 (before the split).

It crashed a couple of times, but never quite got back to 50. I finally covered a couple of days ago at 54, for a modest loss. If I had just held until today... the stock traded down to 44, closing at 50.

BancBoston Robertson Stephens continues to hype this stock every time it falls. All they have to do is put out a press release "reiterating" their buy rating, and it pops. Sickening.
