Has anyone considered shorting some of these names into their earnings reports? That is exactly what I did with VTSS. Sold short at the close Monday 49 1/2. Covered today at 45 1/2. Have followed VTSS for years, always sells off after earnings report. I believe this strategy can be applied to many of the stocks with high earnings visibility during the next two weeks. I would not apply this strategy to the internets with negative earnings, only the mid to large cap techs with good visibility and high expectations where the earnings are already factored in. I have planned my trades long in advance, now I am trading my plan. My take on the market, more wash and rinse, trading range market. Prophet Often
