Doc, Who's to say it hasn't already bottomed? I don't post much here Doc cause I'm an astn long, long from way back, and am not in a category to be bothered by you shorts. I praise you for your skill at skimming on the issues of downtrodden startups. Others holding thru the correction in astn have suffered while you have gained. Others have accumulated at these lower prices, but I have not bothered with much selling. I already owe enough taxes from other gains. ASTN is very risky, but my big wins in the past were with such issues. The one big run I experienced that almost put me over the top, was while holding long shares of a co with a management team that lacked the know-how to succeed with dealing with the Street. Since that experience, I have been on the lookout for a startup whose management can take the heat and dish it out, and knows the inside operations of the Street. That's why I'm convinced ATG will go all the way. They are at the core of the core in the marketplace of the future. Enjoy your short term points down here, you're entitled to them. And I will enjoy my multi-hundred percent gains next year- all the way to early retirement. Both scenarios are quite reasonable, in my mind.
