We should be back to 5 bucks a share by the end of today.

Do you ever get tired of being wrong and making a fool of yourself? Thanks to your AMZN bashing (and woefully wrong predictions), I'm up on that stock and quite happy.

No position in this stock, but am glad to see shorts like you get fried.

Longs can also be thankful it's the Friday after Thangsgiving in a thinly traded market. This never would have happened in a normal week.

35 and falling fast. ISLD bids disappearing fast!

One questionable press release, utter the words "linux" and "wireless" and you've got a freight train running.

Unfortunately, shares are now impossible to find for shorting purposes.


Well, I got off the train at 38 3/4 (9 7/8 basis).

MSDW has short shares, btw.

Thank you all, and especially my deep thanks you you shorters, for a wonderful ride! :)

Hi KeepItSimple; Welcome to the asylum. The inmates are running the show here, so be careful what you wish for. You just might find those shares to short somewhere...

I agree with you completely that this stock is the POSTER CHILD of everything that is wrong with our market. Didn't stop me from making money on it. Printing money, in fact, I can't remember a more profitable trade recently, except when I bought AMD for a bit over $20 per share.

I doubt that we get to $5 per share any time soon. The retail herd has a nasty and disgusting habit of not giving up on their hopes too easily. Consequently, they keep losing shares long in their accounts until they can exit at their entrance price. Which, for most of the guys who paid over $50 for this POS, may never happen.

I can't believe this stock is running like this. Way to big of a jump over two days for this to hold...From what I read they may have a secondary offering to fund operations from next year, at least according to on24 this morning. I have never shorted a stock in my life, but couldn't resist this. If you can believe it, at cybercorp, they have 5k shares to short! I only shorted 100 shares at 34 9/16 just now. I will probably have to hold for several days before I am able to cash out...we'll see what happens.
