I believe I was giving him some additional. He has mentioned 50 before. Chic has been building his position of less than a 1,000 short. I don't know if he's reached it yet. I don't know what SO does besides talk.knc

What makes you all assume that someone need have a large financial stake in something to be negative.

That is just plain silly. It sure seems like everyone here wants to dump on him because he told you all you would lose money, you have. And now you are shooting the messenger.

Are you kidding? 200 shares! All that noise over 200 shares? The way the venom has been flying around this thread, I would've guessed six and seven figure exposures were at stake. Are you sure it's not 200,000?

What does one make shorting 200 CSCO at 82, and covering today anyway? $11,000!


Good one! People who made a lot of money over the years are taking abuse from 100 or 200 share daytraders.<g>
I would have also thought minimum 6 figures. However, it does make sense to me.
People who have made money recently, also missed out on huge gains of the past, whether it was on margin or options. Not only that, they would have lost money along the way...and that explains the current comments by the same people--a form of revenge.
