Worse. More likely, Pluvia would have SHORTED QCOM, trashed the co. on the message boards and everyone defending QCOM as it skyrocketed >1000%.

I notice that, based on his message here, he was at least civil. Could we have a kiner/gentler reincarnated Pluvia after his hiatus? Still not very consistent picking his shorts though, and still pretty transparent re. his tactics. Comparing superconducting with cold fusion in trying to scare people out of their positions? <<ROFLAMO>>

Appears to me Pluvia gathered himself a little notoriety, credibility and a modest following of sheep, in exposing some real scams (Good), but lately is floundering around looking for his next big thing. I wonder if he'll list his SCON fiasco in his future self-promotion resume. Not holding my breath. I wouldn't be surprised if people are now buying against his shorts, because, well, just because it's Pluvia doing the shorting. Not bad odds for the longs these days, it appears.

Disclosure--missed the whole run with SCON. Have been having too much fun with DITC and just didn't pay enough attention. Took profits on DITC, but it is going to go a bunch higher IMO--just not sure when--unless Pluvia decides to short it <<ggg>.

The funny thing is that SCON is probably good odds for a quickie ST short scalp as it digests its recent big gains. Of course, the usual suspects might be spending their time looking under seat cushions for change to buy food rather than looking for their next short.

Wow, Longs are getting TOO BULLISH.

While I'm waiting for the momos to go overboard, I see the comparisons of SCON with QCOM, at best, as silly.
SCON is facing competition from ISCO and Conductus and is in poor financial shape.

Superconductors have been around for several years, SCON has botched any attempts to successfully use them for commercial use, ~90% of their revenue is from government contracts...
