Poor Tony is a self-confessed shorter. He's probably already shorted NTOP and is trying to see how far he can talk it down. Trouble is, he's shorted a company with over 100% annual revenue growth but this fits his self-proclaimed profile of a shorter in a bull market. Running NTOP to ground would certainly look good on his brag rag but I happen to believe he may have picked the wrong stock, which BTW is also consistent with his profile. Look at his personal website. He revels in the fact couldn't make money for his clients as a broker which means he's a poor stock-n-picker. Being of the greedy sort, 5% commissions weren't enough, he's now figured out he can capture more money by being on the short side of the trade. I don't support his behavior but it is legal (even his negative touting) so I won't be joining you over on the SEC site. The best way to handle Poor Little Tony is to bring him out into the light, let him explain his comments so folks can see him for what he is. If you know how to read him, he becomes a joke. Let me show you. From his website... "In 1991, I was 23 and thought I was the hottest thing around... I didn't sleep well, I drank too much and partied way too much and the worst part of it was that I felt like a scum bag when a client lost money..." The first thing that popped into my stem cell was he's doing a lot of screwing but he isn't getting any ass. Anyway, with Tony's own big mouth, I'm going to enjoy trashing his ass on this thread. In all fairness to Tony, he has brought up a valid concern on dilution #reply-10753604, but being a country boy who never liked to read, I'd like to ask him to explain it so a layman can understand it, like number of shares, when they can be traded, etc. So how about it, I yield the floor to Tony.
