Always good to know what we are up against.
Another short sweating and blowing off hor air,


Actually, I've never shorted a stock. I don't even have permission from my brokerage to short. Tax consequences on any gains (50% - Canada) make it not worthwhile. I am long JDSU and I suspect I have far more shares of JDSU than you do and have held them far longer (purchased as JDS Fitel).

JB's post to Luther re getting off margin was reasoned and wise. If the Fed only lowers a ¼ point, techs will tank and Luther will be in some trouble. He is gambling. Your advice to Luther to "try and hang on to your shares" is irresponsible. Your endless rabid posts here and your bashing of anyone who gets in your way is getting very old.
