I suppose if you look at the price and the charts of AKLM,GTIS,IPLY, shorting ATVI at this level isn't limited. It's still over 5, so your average short can jump in to. True, and a good point, but it just seems difficult to believe we could go much lower. Of course it was hard to believe they could have missed revised earnings too... But even if Rocker's move is a short play, there is limited opportunity at these levels, unlike in thqi. Why not just short rmbs or some crappy dot com? I'm still on the long theory...although I haven't added anything since the initial dip. Isn't $5 also the point at which a stock is no longer "marginable" for most brokers? Seems like this could trigger some significant selling if we got there. -Scot

Hey guys, Alex, I was in an Electronics Boutique the other day looking around and the game that was on the demo Dreamcast was a hoot! It was a puzzle/maze game where you had to save these mice from these cats...very cute, very fun. Didn't need the great Dreamcast graphics, but fun nonetheless. Some Japanese game of some sort. All, seems that the $6-8 range is where all gaming companies are ending up now. THQI, MWY, THDO, ATVI...just waiting for ERTS...hah. Likely to be a run-up in anticipation of a heady fall season with the release of the PS2. (Wasn't that also the name of a failed IBM computer?) Still think this basket of stocks can make 50% by year end... Rumors are that Mattel finalized with Havas today...we'll see if true. Hang in there boys! Tom
