Yes, I understood your point. Just expanding on it! What I'd like to know form AUric is whether he thinks (a) ASTN will not get any contracts because somebody else will get it or (b) nobody will get one, it will be business as usual. If (a), specifically which company does he think will get it? Optimark? If (b), why will instituitonal investors keep shelling out $$ for impact costs when individual investors bail mutual funds for individual stocks? I jsut don't see (b) happening. I think it is fair to say that Auric does not know anymore than we do. He is shorting ASTN for the same reason we are long: Speculation about outcomes. DocStone
