those who have shorted(myself include) past few weeks needed to be careful in the stock to be shorted.

just think of the $$$ made by shorting nearly ANY thing tech last year or just three months ago.

ATHM went from $20 to 20 cents. we all know what ENE
as for me shorting this year has been most profitable. even the top names like CSCO, INTU have made money on the way down. now the tide has shifted. dip buying back in style.

a public response to a private request on my shorts

I have so many for two reasons
one, to spread the risk, and second because there was an insane runup in "terror related scare stocks"
I have made money on every one of these except for WAK and have covered 25-75% of my positions on most of them holding the rest for even lower prices

ACAM AH ASE CPHD KROL LLL MAGS OSIS SURE TASR VISG WAK

some others I am in for a position short
APOG BPRX FULL SMD TSCO

and beginning my very first small positions in great companies that are running "too high too fast" or others I think may pay off for a scalp
LE MIKE SMD WBSN WFMI

plus QQQ and of course EBAY which is causing some pain for the moment

run the charts on these and let me know if I am nuts please
