I don't know if I can take another day of watching the CUBE flop around like a dying fish while the rest of the semi's ramp again. It is really getting painful.

More justification from Herb: thestreet.com Pinnacle of its success: An item here yesterday mentioned a number of "unadulterated disasters" that were good calls by short-seller Marc Cohodes of Rocker Partners. As some of you pointed out, some of those companies finally got their act together and soared, among them, C-Cube Microsystems (CUBE:Nasdaq), Macromedia (MACR:Nasdaq) and Pinnacle Systems (PCLE:Nasdaq). All three got pummeled because of botched biz plans (go back and look at the charts and earnings), and all have subsequently done much better. Does that mean the shorts were wrong? Hardly. The operative phrase in the column was "at one time or another." Those companies did fall on hard times -- and they recovered. Some companies (even tech companies) are like cats: They eventually land on their feet, though most don't have nine lives.
