I posted this on the SYMC thread. Although I know we tend to look at things in more of the long term, I still think that doing this can't hurt: Although possibly not as extreme as the company in the referenced link, one would believe that the short position in SYMC has increased markedly in the past week because of arbitrage. I am going to request that my SYMC stock be transferred from margin to cash, thus preventing it from being loaned out to short sellers. If enough of us do this, perhaps we can make a difference and help to "squeeze" the shorts. Message 14137258

Good luck Mike-imagine my surprise upon heading over to MSN Central on my monthly visit over there and seeing your visage over there. It is still not too late to repurchase ALSC! BTW there seems to be many indications to me anyway that the semi boom is far from over and I just bought my first semi equipment stock in a long wile- UTEK. not a value stock maybe but it has sizable cash, nice prospects, a licensing deal with AMAT. Oddly enough it is faily close to its highs which could indicate improving prospects.
