You might want to read the fine print in the preceding post: Pacific Equity Investigations is an equity valuation research center. It may and often does have positions that are consistent with its reports. Anthony Elgindy, Director of Research , is a professional trader and analyst, and one of the most well known investment commentators on the Internet. His work has been featured in numerous financial news media. He has appeared on TV on ABC’s "20/20" , CNBC , KUSI Channel 9 , MSNBC and Discovery Channel’s "Justice Files" . He is the subject of two recent books and has been featured in almost every financial publication in the Country, His mission involves speaking out to warn the public about the risks of fraud and overvalued equities. Isn't this the guy who did jail time for securities violations? (I don't remember the exact details.)

Here's what's listed on SI. It doesn't seem to combine well with Insidetruth.com. Like mixing oil and water. siliconinvestor.com I got a feeling the Insidetruth.com guys were reading from the wrong columns. This doesn't mean I put any faith in what analysts have to say. In fact I don't listen or read their stuff at all. That said, I do use Value Line for statistical information, not their opinions. I can't remember if VL's expanded edition has GENE in it. Best regards, Tom

Old Anthony Elgindy rides again!!! Ooh, Anthony now bills himself as a Jim Cramer lookalike!! I see he hasn't lost his flair for alarmist "warnings" about stocks he and his group are most probably shorting. Anthony is, in my opinion, a notorious short seller and manipulator who uses his group of short sellers to bring down a stock with negative BS and scare tactics. No doubt his group is short GENE. Of course, to Anthony and his group anything positive analyst statement about GENE, such as a target of $84, would be looked upon as "stupid".
