Wexler initiates coverage of Chromavision (CVSN) with STRONG SELL/SHORT SELL recommendation. Chromavision is in the business of making "automated cellular imaging system". To put it more plainly, they make a slightly souped up microscope. I use the term "business" loosely since the company has no revenues or earnings to speak of. Much excitement from pending FDA clearance and a strategic relationship with SFE. however, I detect a wee bit of excessive stock promotion in the air, along with the usual overstated market size and understated competition (ref: KERA and BTIM). I believe that now is a good time to begin shorting a bit. Get ready to short a boatload upon any FDA news (positive or negative...an FDA approval will probably cause a rapid spike/collapse similar to BTIM - though the relative volatility will probably remain low, since the short position is minuscule). In either case, the trip back down will be swift and brutal.

"MCHM looking limp...I'm also covering a bit of the stock..." Oh, no, you can't be covering. I read on the Yahoo Board that shorts like you are selling, and that's what's driving the price down.

Nice call on MCHM, I have my target set lower, but it looks like it won't get there today . . .
