Mama, I know that David Tice is human and can be wrong, but at least he tries to do the research. Everyone else is co-opted into the I-banking, commission churning, feel good doping macarena, which makes them totally unperceptive. And, of course he is shorting or buying puts when he finds a turkey faking its numbers. That's what I do, too. I find it amazing that so many JOTTs still believe that Wall Street is looking out for their best interests. How many times does Lucy have to pull that football up just before they try to kick it? Good Grief! <G>

So, you are right to mention Oxford, where the analysts were worse than useless, they were part of the scam. Also, note the behavior of one analyst, Witlessham, who recommended MU in the 80s just as DRAM took its latest price slide. This guy has to be one of the all-time great football puller-uppers. <g>

Aloha Barb! I was entirely serious when I said it is possible that everyone but Tice is wrong. However, after following this company for about 2 1/2 years and given Tices's record on returns during that same period I truly like the odds on TYC. Seems to me that even if I'm wrong there is not a whole lot of downside from 25, given the cos. break up value and earning picture. Good luck.
Cheers
Hal
