Bull, Thanks for the information. News of future demand for FGH services keeps creeping in. It is just a matter of time when this translates into orders which translates into increased earnings which translates into higher stock prices. A poster on Yahoo also reported the continuing decline of short interest: "Short Interest this week has dropped from 1,876,952 (4.71%) on Dec. 17,1999 to 1,486,069 (3.73%)on Dec.23.1999." That is roughly 1m lower than just a couple of months ago. Short covering this week may overpower the remaining tax sellers and result in increasingly higher volume and price. (Absent the pressure provided by the tax sellers, the shorts must be very concerned about the January effect and accelerate the pace to cover before this weeks close.)At the very least, I would expect their sweat glands to get a thorough workout. >g< Sarge
