Bill the Mkt. Cap is 340M come on it is going to at least 1B based on sector valuations currently, not sure about 5B, that would put it at $200+ a share. I don't want to put price targets on this so lets see where this one goes step by step. After $50 we will talk again and hopefully we will have more material news, etc to draw from.

Bill
Nice posts. I agree with you and see nothing but a spiral downward for ASDS. I only wish I could short it through Datek. I made more money on asds than on any other trade, but was also blinded by greed. I only managed to sell about 20% of my holding above 30, and the rest in little bits all the way down to 20.

Like I said earlier Bill, investors move stock prices, not number of warehouses etc. I personally believe that this is a quality company and as you have said, they have a large following.

Bill, perhaps you're right to ask the questions that you do re: ADSD, Some could turn out to be quite valid. Yet you fail to answer a single one of them with the exception of making some sort of high school assumption about the management capacity of a 'local' Texan. (Lord knows, they certainly don't have any capable people in Texas)
On the same basis, I suppose you're the one who decided to ignore the likes of Dell back in 1995 some 6 splits and 500 points ago ; -Nah , a company like that could never make it, treacherous competion from the big guns, uncertain supply from overseas distributors, unstable component prices and constant innovation -besides, they're run by some dumb Texan. Nah, I couldn't buy a stock like Dell
(unless of course, they hire a COO like John Scully). So then maybe I should buy a few shares of broadcast.com -nope, run by dumb Texans again. Speaking of Texans -forget Texas instruments and Motorola too .No, I think I'll load up on Winstar, yeah, they've got the goods; 10 billion in debt and 80% of a useless piece of spectrum that nobody wants(except them). QCOM up 600% WCII unchanged. (I see in your profile that WCII is your #1 pick)

Next time big guy, have the huevos to tell us about your negative views before the stock has tanked 40%.
At that point, you might get a little respect.
- at least from this .....TEXAN !!!!!

Bill Lotozo, - Looks like the apology is mine this time. (on two counts)

1) Even though I disagree with you about the quality and prospects for this company (hence I'm still long), I certainly would have fared better had I employed your attitude and sold. I would be buying back my short position in here near the magical 50% retracement level instead of licking my wounds. You were right.

2) I criticized your #1 pick, WCII as a company with a billion in debt and a portion of spectrum no one seems to want. Well all that changed today. It appears that Microsoft is willing to bet a days wages ($900 million) that this company IS worth owning. -the stock popped 20 points before giving back 10.

You were right.

And I was wrong.

So what's your take on ASDS at 17?

Still holding.......and waiting.......patiently.
