Tom, it seems to me that today's announcement about the addition of all these new customers was aimed at putting to rest the whole GM thing. I think the main point of the announcement was to calm investor's fears that the GM loss would not have a major impact on sales.

I admire your conviction and courage in taking the short position, but with a 70 point move today on fairly decent volume I think you have misread the situation. I hope you plan to cover if it has another big move tomorrow.

Regardless, I am in it for the long haul and I believe that the company will be fine, whether that is now or in the future. This is a very hot market segment right now, and I think they are still considered one of the leaders in this field.

Good luck to you.

Steve

Oh Tom, you mean like the mishanding of information by LU?
So your saying that LU is not a reputable company?

Give me a break, the longs are such whining cry babies.
If I short a stock and it blows out earnings.. can I sue the company for not posting ahead of time they are going to blow out earnings?
Boo hoo.. I am long the stock and I m a giant crybaby.
