Zeev, I know you agree the point is to buy companies that will provide the best risk adjusted return. There are different ways to implement the point. One way is to play small and short term moves based primarily on TA. Another way is to get behind large moves based primarily on fundamentals. Its not quite "buy and hold," but it isn't short-term oriented either. Secular growth in the silicon economy gives power source products the potential for a compelling investment. That provides a secular reason to invest in the industry. But with regard to VLNC, history aside, it comes down to this: visibility is very low and those objective data points that are visible are, at best, conflicting. That is the reason - and the only reason - why I wouldn't invest in VLNC now.

Zeev, The reality is a whopping 4 million + shares of short interest! Even with the help of multiple negative basher posts per day and efforts by those such as yourself to cast doubt, the shorts have failed to drive the price down long enough to cover where they hoped. Their precarious situation in now exposed, and astute investors will buy, rather than sell to the shorts who will be hungry for shares to cover, especially when all is well with the company and positive news is overdue!
