Auric--I held off mentioning VPHM since a friend of mine found it.
He posted it on Rogers thread though and it is ripe. They are doubling the float:

And the insiders have been unloading for nearly a year. I know you don't like shorting biotechs but the simple market basics of doubling the float make it very ripe.
All the Best

Auric...

My candidate for shorting.

CUST. IMO, this is a short ot the very low single digits. No revenue, announced products but yet to deliver and their dates keep slipping, an announced business modes for their e-mail which makes no sense.

They have two announced products, e-mail and a wallet based secure credit card e-commerce application. The wallet based e-commerce is in competition with some big established names like Verisign, American Express, Amazon, etc.

Their e-mail product is in competition with just about everyone and many give their product away for free. CUST will charge something like a dollar a month to use. Ye Gods, they will need millions and millions of users at that rate.

Currently selling around 30 so it gives a huge potential gain.

Thanks for the thread.
