i dropped 500 shares short at 158 near the close...

these low-volume, no-news, short squeezes usually give back a lot of their gains the following morning...kana<which rose 60+ the other day> is a recent example...

askj is a real company...they will be around in five years...but i suspect that the eisner-branding hype will have failed for the most part...aol and others will STEAL their consumer business and their corporate business will be stagnant as they faces stiff competition...

in the much shorter term, the 3 issues will be the lock-up, the secondary and the stock split...all 3 are coming undoutedbly...

smart mgmt saves the split until it is NEEDED...wait for weakness in the stock and then bam...announce the split...

so i expect the split to coincide with the lock-up...the secondary on the other hand could be at any time...

i expect to cover monday am around 138-140...see you there...

good luck to all...
